Ullmark is the same goalie he was in buffalo. Just with a better supporting cast now. But when that team struggles. He blows it


People here thought he let go the best goalie ever

You said Levi had a snowball’s chance in hell of being able to play in the NHL.

Kincaid better be good because Washington most likely will. I would’ve liked the move up more if it was for Washington. Max protect with him and let Bills wr’s run wild.

I said that right out of college going straight to the NHL. Only 1 or 2 goalies have ever done it successfully. I didn’t say Levi sucked fyi You are twisting my words to fit a false narrative

I was told the Bruins were going to steamroll whoever they played. By highly placed, always correct sources who are never wrong

Matthew Tkachuk is that dude.

Super impressive.

Amerks stay alive with a wild 3rd period. Mersch had a good game along with Murray and Rosen.

Pretty Wild!! Hopefully they can put 10-15lbs on to that frame. Kid reminds me of another LB we drafted, who has turned into a stud. About the same size when they were drafted. If he turns into another Milano, we are set for awhile.

So Torrence hasn't allowed a Sack in over 1500 Snaps, believe he has had 2 penalties called on him over the last 2yrs and they were both 2yrs ago. Just Nasty!!

Big big fan of the guard. 1st round talent and the best guard in the draft apparently

Looks like the Bills want to be much more physical up front.
- Buff36


It's about time. O line got bullied down the stretch. Nice to see them addressing it through FA and the draft.

Incredible Panthers effort and win last night.

Big time guts.

Tkachuk is incredibly gutty.

Need more of those types on the Sabres.

Huge Panthers fan for tomorrow.

Who in this draft Brings some of that, there really isn't anything available in FA or trade that Brings that. IMO!! They might have a bit of that in Nadeau, but he will never be as Talented.

Totally agree and time for Kromer to throw more than Beach chairs. He needs to step up. He has some good players to work with.
I really like the Kincaid pick, he's gonna open the middle of the field up for Diggs and Davis.

The Sabres have a 100 plus point player who plays with incredible guts and desire, and isn't afraid to get himself into the fray physically?

Their issue and the combination of talent and desire.

They need more players who have both.

The above is a nice way of saying you're out to lunch, during breakfast time. Nicely done.

Cozens and Dahlin then. Both have skill / talent and a mean streak.

Grit isn’t needed at all.

I watch the devils play the rangers. Devils aren’t out hitting or gritting them …. They are out skating them

Vegas vs jets. Vegas completely out skated and dominated them

Hurricane did the same

The panthers vs bruins is most a gritty team vs a skilled team (panthers)

So please stop with the grit. It’s embarrassing. Maybe 15 years ago yoh would have a point

Bill Zito is an aggressive, proactive GM.

He's managing his roster while being hamstrung with Bob's $10M cap hit from the prior GM.

What's embarrassing is his viewpoint.

Woefully inaccurate, sadly.

There's a difference between the grit Tkachuk brings and what Cozens/Dahlin bring.
