Two different topics really. No issue with not playing him recently.

He was their #1 at the TDL, I get not worrying about making him AHL playoff eligible. He graduated and won the job, at that point. If they really wanted him in Roch, they needed to trade for a G.

Why ? It's not gonna hurt him to play Playoff Hockey in the AHL. I think not playing lately has got to tell him something.

Man o man what a season...... For the first time in forever I have enjoyed watching the Sabres. This team has great things coming to it and soon. A defenseman here and a goalie there and the sky is the limit. Okposo has impressed me even though he will likely not be back and man has Mitts been playing great. I really like this team.....

LOL... I know I am usually a real downer when it comes to the Sabres but they really do have a great future

UPL isn’t waiver eligible next year.

I’d be shocked if he wasn’t dealt.

Unless we are running Levi/UPL next year which is yikes.

I sometimes wonder how nice it would be to naïvely float through life, your comments help me achieve that feeling so thank you.

I really expected more from him. Especially since he played for Donnie.

Maybe he's still nursing something? But then why dress him? Who knows.

UPL was a great prospect but never put it together.

He hasn’t stopped a beachball at the AHL or NHL level for years.

He could never play another game in a Sabres sweater and I wouldn’t bat an eyelash.

The Sabres 1A/1B goalie to pair with Levi next year isn’t on the roster

Be honest, were you thinking that at the deadline?

I know I'm a bit biased and give KA the benefit of the doubt on most things.

Me neither, would have rather kept the 2nd. Hopefully he comes into Camp a different player.

No one mentioned it.

Wouldn't UPL have had to clear waivers, or no?

Well I can't say that I was, but it's not something that shouldn't have been thought of, especially a goalie you hadn't planned on having up to begin with.

Is it a stretch to say Mitts has been the Sabres best player the last 5 games or so?

Not a stretch at all. Crazy that we are having this conversation.
