Maybe if Tommers could stay on his feet Tommers could get his shot into the wide-open net.

SHOOT IT!

They should have traded UPL earlier in the week when his value was the highest it will be this season.

But the "fools" were right to have hope.

Perfect time to trade UPL!

Hush your mouth. You'll give them ideas.

Lord help us, they're going to think rotating through all three goalies - two games at a time - is the goalie solution.

I don't get it.

OMG. They have a game tonight?

They would if the history were worth claiming. People are people.

None of this game is Ellis' fault.

Looking at that first goal, Ellis was about to pull in the rebound, assuming to glove it, when I believe the Sabre passing by took it. Hamsammich is saying it was "the first big rebound from Ellis (he's) seen". Which is melodramatic.

Byram is not a smart player.

Mule for MVP of the year.

Details schmetails.

I believe the window to get the best return and settle the goalie issue is open now while there are still players out with injuries. You waive UPL and he makes it through his value is virtually forever tarnished by that. It would take a long time and a consistent level of play UPL has barely managed once before to recover. GMKA needs to trade him now for whatevers and take what Adams would consider an ego punch, although, ironically, smart Sabres fans would actually appreciate the move.

Keep neither. They're both weak in the defensive zone, especially for defenders. They'd make a great trade package with UPL and one of either Östlund or Rosen.

For myself, I have not come to a conclusion on Quinn. No hate, but no Benson-esque adoration. I saw him finish a check nicely tonight. He plays well with the skilled kids. Unlike Tommy Dangles, he shoots when he should shoot, passes when he should pass. He's not an overrated disaster like Power. I'm still willing to give him a chance to put it all together.

I didn't really see a play tonight where knowing the book on a goalie would have helped. I was working out with the game on during the second, so may have missed something. Still, from what I saw, the way they were playing D tonight made it difficult for the Oilers to execute a plan on the goalie.

This save...

GMKA in the old days would have a 5x$5.5m contract ready for Ellis after this game.

Any questions on Ellis after this 6v5 so far?
