Not quite ready for prime time. Teaching and learning opportunity for Granato and the boys. It’s all about how they get off the mat and respond tomorrow night against another good team.
Sabres are gonna catch their second straight opponent coming off OT on a back to and a late flight. Will Donnie Meatballs have them doing another rope a dope and crushing a tired team in the third period tomorrow night?
If, and it’s a big if, he can return to pre-injury form, then he’d be a terrific stretch run/playoff team addition. He might have been the SB MVP if not for the injury. He looked damn good with the Rams.
That’s good news for us because even though we won the head to head series last season, it seems like Letang has been a Sabre killer every time we play them. Of course Crosby will still be his usual pain in the ass to play against.
