The Sabres, what with their salary cap room and ability to lock up younger forwards on controlled contracts, have a window that should allow them to beef up their defense. They have the harder to find puck moving defensemen that can captain the PP. A couple nasty guys to fill out the defense would make their high flying offense look even better.

Bring Reggie in to replace HCDG and make these guys the energy line:

There was a lot of good hockey being played by the Sabres in the 2nd & 3rd periods. It was very entertaining but once again they ran into a hot goalie.

Observation: Opponents are collapsing around TNT and not letting him use his reach around the net.

Sabres dominated play in the 2nd period while the Jets just toyed with them.😁 Jets not very aggressive on the PK. Krebs playing well again and will really be a good Sabre. An average goalie for the Jets would be behind by at least 3 goals.

Don't you know, we have to be big, speedy, skilled and shoot the puck through those 1" openings.

I guess you didn't get the Crayola 64 box for Christmas, eh?

Out of curiosity, if the Sabres play as fast and skilled as they are capable of will the Jets be in trouble?

# 90 was an anomaly. As a player he was pretty much complete. Played well in both ends of the ice and was a magician on faceoffs. I still remember a game in which the Sabres were ahead by one in the waning minutes. The Sabres were in a shell and iced the puck like 5 times with RO of course winning every one. His leadership came from his play while the Captain, skilled as could be, had an on/off button that he wasn't afraid to use. Today, #21 and his line mate #28 aren't even in the same zip code skill wise when compared to #90 & #9 but their work effort shows what leadership is all about.

Like 50 shades of gray?

I was just sarcastically referring to the size of deer in NJ.

Those NJ pinelands seem to have a lot of petting zoos.

Name the HOF Goalie that had a career GGA of 3.38 and Save% of .887. Do it without looking it up.

I knew we had something in common. .

Okposo is not a "has been". That line keeps the puck in the opponents end for long periods of time. If they had better hands that could put the puck in the net they would be a feared line in the NHL. Right now #28 & #21 are teaching Krebs what it takes to stay up with the big club and his play since being on a line with them has improved dramatically.
