I don't think your mom plays on the PK, but she's definitely part of the DP unit. Her over/under on holes filled/60 minutes is exactly 2.5.

I'll see myself out...

You aren’t wrong though

The Sabres have outscored opponents 11-3 at 5-on-5 with Owen Power and Henri Jokiharju sharing the ice, a 78.57% share.

That number ranks 2nd in the NHL among D pairs with at least 100 minutes played. #LetsGoBuffalo

It's all about that 5v5

Rousek and Tuch playing tonight... whos out that played last game?


Capfriendly has us at 23 roster spots with Rousek still in the minors.... What are they not telling us?

Krebs sent down?

Olof trade?

Benson to IR?

Biro and Rousek are playing tonight. Tuch is in.

Greenway-Thompson-Biro
Skinner-Mittelstadt-Peterka
Rousek-Cozens-Tuch
Girgensons-Krebs-Okposo

They need one of those two to establish themselves so that Void truly becomes spare parts instead of injury fill-in.

Benson not formally announced to IR but I think they have till 5p. Why it's taking so long, who knows.

I like

You may have misinterpreted my comment as some sort of frustration over Cozens.
Not intended that way.
I just think that Cozens could fill that role very easily and eliminate a "need".
They have plenty of guys to play C, including Kulich to backfill on L3 and provide some scoring touch.
- IonSabres

If this is there thoughts on Cozens then they really could use the over abundance of Wingers on a different position of need.

I like that they're trying to figure out Biro and Rousek's place in the org before the kids start competing for the limited spots.

Tangent thought, Cozens is not playing with slouch wingers.

That game (games?) with Krebs was destructive.

Me too. Those guys deserve it over the 19 year olds.

Sweat dripped into his eye from eating the jalapeno nacho's - week to week for now.

Savoie's stint ends Sunday. He can only play in one more game.

They really need to figure it out with Mitts and who is at C, are they keeping Kulich at C.

Something's fishy. Would you really call up Rousek to play over Jost?

Think it probably was about Tuch.

Wonder what they would have done this week with 3 healthy G's.

Indeed

In a word: Mystifying. Buffalo has been scattered from the start. Are the Sabres contenders? Pretenders? Ready to launch or still figuring it out? That narrative continues playing out nightly without a clear answer. Buffalo has undeniable potential. Can the Sabres reach it this season and get back into the playoffs?

Like the Potential part, cause they do. But can they figure out the needed pieces to finish the puzzle.

Girgensons has been positive impact this season thus far.

Kreb has been the biggest disaster and it's not even close.
- TheSabresTaco

On paper, Girgs has been one of their worst players. 39.7% xGF. He was 49.2% last season. Where are you seeing this positive impact? PK? Leadership?

Girgs/Krebs/Okposo
This year: 24.3%
Last year: 46.2%

It's ugly.

Why is it fishy
- TheSabresTaco

I don't believe they called up 2 F's to sit 2 healthy F's that are already here.

Screams injury.
