SabresBaltimore Posted October 6, 2023 Report Share Posted October 6, 2023 Per: https://www.nhl.com/sabres/news/how-to-watch-buffalo-sabres-preseason-games-2023  Friday, Oct. 6 vs. Pittsburgh – 7 p.m. Watch: MSG (Dan Dunleavy and Rob Ray; pregame starting at 6:30 p.m.) Listen: WGR 550 (Radio Simulcast)  I figured I wouldn't get to watch this one, but like the last MSG game, it looks like it will also be on NHL Network for anyone who has that/is out of market.  It was announced yesterday that Levi is starting (which I find a bit of a surprise after how bad UPL played, I thought it would be Comrie). Both Cozens and Eric Johnson were out practicing with the team too.  So far I haven't any other roster announcements. I'm hoping they put out most of their starters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveoath Posted October 6, 2023 Report Share Posted October 6, 2023 (edited) Ah crap. Don't think I'll be able to see this one. Any chance its streaming anywhere else (Canada?) as I can use my VPN.  EDIT: Apparently - Quote The game will be broadcast nationally with NHL Network picking up the MSG feed, which will in the NY region. It will also be available over the radio and online at 105.9 The X and on the Pens’ website and app. Guess I am VPN-ing to Pitts tonight 🤮 Edited October 6, 2023 by steveoath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The being on in NHLN part is bad for anyone with ESPN+. That means the game won't be available there and won't be available for on-demand replay.

SabresBaltimore Posted October 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2023 Yeah. I have both so it doesn't matter to me. I would have preferred ESPN+, but I'll take what I can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted October 6, 2023 Report Share Posted October 6, 2023 (edited) Any word which goalie starts? I don't think Levi needs another go. I'd play Comrie just to get another look. Edited October 6, 2023 by PromoTheRobot 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granato announced Levi starting yesterday. I’m sure DG gave Levi first dibs on this game to help him get ready for the season. I hope that they go with Comrie as the backup for the season. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, but that's in part why I wanted Comrie to get the nod tonight. But it's good to get Levi another game too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabresBaltimore Posted October 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2023 So line-up will probably be:  Skinner-TNT-Benson Greenway-Mitts-Tuch Peterka-Cozens-Olofsson Girgs-Krebs/Jost-Krebs/Jost  Dahlin-Clifton Power-Joker Mule-RJohnson Levi UPL I don't think some of those combinations looked great last game, and Granato made adjustments as the game went on. But I kind of expect him to try them again at least to start the game.    Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matter2003 Posted October 6, 2023 Report Share Posted October 6, 2023 (edited) Benson is obviously making this team. Don't think he would be practicing with the 1st and 2nd PP units the last two days if the plan wasn't for him to be there opening night, wouldn't make any sense.

I think you are right, but the biggest non starter haas to be Power with Joker. Mule and Dahlin worked so well last year and I think EJ is perfect example and will cover up for Joker as he matures. I like Joker and I think he will be a good player, but he needs the right partner now. I think he is 26 now so he is nearing the point where he will be who he is.
