The playoffs are toast for this team. They are what their record says they are. For a front office that decided to run it back, almost everything needed to go perfectly. It most certainly hasn’t. Their top line has one player on IR in Skinner and two others in Tage and Tuch who both came back too early from their injuries and aren’t close to 100% They have three players in VO, Jost and Murray who shouldn’t be in the lineup mudh less together as a line. The coaching staff continues to run the Dahlin-Samuelsson Pairing out even though Mattias is best suited for a 3rd pairing. That’s when they are not playing 11-7. The roster is sending its own message by having a 1-9-2 record after wins, they are not good enough. If taking an 18 yo off the roster for 14 days is going to be that much of a detriment to the team, the playoffs were a fallacy to begin with Jiri Kulich has been loaned and the Amerks are actually in the playoff chase. He would miss five games during the WJCs. Loan Him, let him live a dream of playing for Team Canada. The NHL will be here when he gets back.

Lance Lysowski had an interview with Benson and in it he described how Adams told Team Canada no and explained to Benson why he wasn’t being loaned for the WJCs. Benson is happy being in the NHL, but it doesn’t seem He had a say in the decision

Sending Benson back to the WHL to average two points a game really isn’t going to help His Development now, He has proven he belongs in the NHL. He might need to sit for a game or two as the season goes on. Two weeks away at the WJCs getting a chance to play for Canada would have been a great reward for Him.

I realize He has been the Sabres best player most nights, but the playoffs are all but dead for this team. Maybe they should have let Him go experience the WJCs.

Go Bills

Sigh

They need to roll three lines-bench Jost and Olofsson

That was tripping on Tage

My 15 year old asked to go tonight to the Bandits Game. He wants to see a Buffalo Sports Team raise a banner in His Lifetime and didn’t want to take a chance

Got it covered

Ryan Johnson should not come out of the lineup unless He is injured. Erik Johnson and Clifton however absolutely can

Great Win
