Alex Tuch won’t play tonight, said Sabres coach Don Granato. “In all likelihood” they’re going to use seven defensemen against the Penguins.

Think there going 7 D, so we get to see Girgensons and Okposo for 15min tonight. Wonder how many times Girgensons can fall tonight, saw atleast 4 last night.

I mean Savoie has dropped 90+ points 2 seasons in a row in the WHL.

I’m sure being around NHL players and the conditioning stint will benefit him to an extent moving forward but 4 minutes in a game then sent down is wowza

Grigorenko put up 1.5 ppg in the Q in his D and D+1 year including 30 goals in 33 games in D+1, but then, he was 26 at the time.

Junior doesn't mean they can just step in and be great right away, or ever.

On one hand, I would have liked to see him for mor ethan 5 minutes.

On the other, they had no intention of keeping him, so it's fine.

They teased the fans on this one.

Benson did. It's impossible to know since Savoie got hurt so early.

Benson had a couple moments where he looked fine and blended in. Good grief that last game he played. He was horrendous. Like really bad.

Savoie was a give away machine during his 3:55. One shift he had 3 turnovers in our own end alone

Didn’t u listen to his interview? They took a red eye in and arrived on game day. That should REALLY upset ya. Go punch a hole in your living room wall now. I could give a flying (frank) at a rolling doughnut he got sent down. This is the NHL you know? Seeeeeeeeeeah

You might laugh, but it's in the CBA that they have to pay to bring them to their first game.

I think that's great and right, but still, to fly 2,000 miles to see your kid play for less than 5 minutes kind of sucks. It's a great occasion blunted by the fact he barely played.

I don't care that he got sent down; it's just a lot of work to not see much

It's nice, but under those circumstances, a bit awkward.

I mean I don’t see what the big deal is. The shifts I saw. He wasn’t great and didn’t look comfortable.

What’s the rush? We have Kulich and Rosen that are above him in the deserves to be here pecking order.
