The part about limiting and controlling rebounds was going above and beyond what he's typically done this season.  (Realized after rereading it, that may not have been stated as clearly as it should've been.)

And, yes, the team played very well in front of him.  But will give the devil his due when it's earned.  He came very close to playing a complete game tonight.  (And hopefully some opposing GM saw the effort tonight and believes his coaches can wash the Sabre stink off of him.)

We'd have to retain salary and I'm guessing that'd be a non-starter. I think we're stuck with him, unless someone (other than KA) can sweet talk TP.

Why do you assume that?

That was a great moment. He stayed and waited to make sure everything was okay. He was smiling and clapping when he skated away.

Yeah, that was a real nice way for him to cap off what turned to be such an impressive first night back from his injury.

It sure didn't take long to see that he has a natural instinct for the game like few players have. Fingers crossed for him to stay healthy.

Excellent win.  Norris add skill to the top 6.  Just hope he stays in the line up.  I thought a lot of Sabres stood out tonight. 
 

Get rest. Get on the road, and then beat the slugs in Philly.  They think they play that “heavy” game.  Just blow on by them and dominate.  

REALLY hoping they don't decide to showcase UPL again in that one.  The D won't likely be as solid as they were tonight because Ruff won't get the matchups he wants.  Would much rather see either Lyon or Ellis between the pipes.

But, guess it'll be whatever it'll be.  Would be cool if they got a 3 game winning streak working with each goalie getting one of the W's.

Good game. 

Fire KA.

Trade UPL for something of value.

This team has another gear with Norris on the ice. I'm not jumping in head first, but I'm cautiously optimistic if...IF...Norris can stay on the ice.

Also, kudos to Upie; he played well.

Big road swing on deck. On to the next one...

This is the difference in having everyone playing on the line they should be playing on, and not having to play up a level.

***With Depth in Kesselring, Kulich, Rosen and Dunne.

That is something that has not been around in a very long time.

Yes, our AHL/bench depth consists of properly developed players ready for the NHL, not high draft picks rushing into the fray out of desperation.

After tonight's game...

Norris is on pace for 87 points.

The goaltending save% for the season isn't great, but it is consistent: Luukkonen .899, Lyon .899, Ellis .897.

Maybe if we get on a winning streak our GM can trade for a good player who doesn’t like palm trees and likes paying taxes
