Hughes, to me, is Phil Housley. Power is Larry Robinson without the intimidation factor.

7/3/2 in what has been probably the toughest stretch of games in the season. First line was bad tonight. Probably was the difference.

Bad decision by Tage. Not sure what the angst is about for OT in general though. They had the puck the whole time.

Skinner! Nice play Dahlin

Tuch struggling

Mule sitting on +3 at the moment for this game. Nice little run of +9 is his last 8 games after going 17 games in a row never recording a + game.

Didn’t see much of the game today, but in general I find him to be conscientious and smart, but not physically strong.

The number of stops he’s making lately has been impressive. And entertaining hockey. Again.

That the right call. Skinner’s fault.

Gotta love Kyle. And if that line had a centre…

Kyle with a beautiful bull rush.

Tall and Skinny line not getting it done yet today.

When they took a guy higher than many had him rated in large part because of his character? Lambert’s track record screams me-first, entitlement, and inability to handle adversity. He seems to be the antithesis of what Adams is trying to build here.

Nightmare season for Colin. All that could have gone wrong has. Looking at a significant pay cut next year.

Levi’s teammate, senior Jordan Harris, signs with Habs.

Puppies! Kittens! Brad Marchand shooting the puck into his own net in OT!

It should be pointed out that Levi walked away from his “family” to sit in the press box in China for 3 weeks this year. My take is that Weekes was actually used by someone else to get Adams to cave. If it was Adams, the rumour was clumsy and ill-considered, damaging his rep with other GMs, and crushing it with Treliving and Weekes. Krebs, Tuch, 1st were done, Adams was haggling for the 4th piece, McCrimmon was getting tired, Jack was at the end of his rope. The net effect of the clearly false Calgary rumour was to piss off Treliving throw cold water on any talks Adams was having over there. Leverage gone, Adams accepted a 2nd for a 3rd rather than Brisson, or whatever he was holding out for. Remember, Jack wanted to go to Vegas.

I know there is a considerable warm fuzzy happening right now, but this remains a 23/33 team, 30 points out of a playoff spot and these guys are pros who understand and expect competition for their jobs.

There is no way in hell the Sabres are drafting Lambert with their top pick.

Skinner has missed 19 shootout attempts in a row.

Looking at the players listed as centres who have played 30 games, he’s tied with Bergeron for 31st in P/G. I see at least 5 guys (Reinhart, Marchesseault, Nelson,Kyrou, Schmaltz, maybe Schenn, Nugent-Hopkins) in the top 40 I don’t consider centres. Maybe there are others listed as wingers who are? 🤷

He lets in far more 40-foot shots than he should. Other than that he's looked strong to me pretty much since November.

How about Eakin Girgs Okposo? May not have reached 100

Agree with your larger point but I think what really happened with the bold was Tuch lost the puck on a wrap-around attempt. Of course Thompson was right there to clean-up. Grade A example of the method to their madness.

Because they are all so puck-hungry, when a turnover happens (positive or negative) there is almost always a linemate nearby to pounce on it. The puck and the players are usually headed toward the net. And they do force a lot of turnovers, in fact all three of them are very good at that, really in all three zones.
