I would add Tage to your list. He was really impactful tonight.

Reminds me of a much taller Rick Middleton (not that I like any Bruin, ever).

Boy, did that game feel good.

He does that almost every game. Maybe time for Sobotka to change his name.

Tage gotta be a star tonight even without a goal.

Dahlin, cool as the other side of the pillow.

One too many times to the well ERod. Gotta shoot to keep goalies honest to the pass.

Unfortunately, I can't answer that question.

Fantastic period.

Otto with his first.

Covered up by Carter. RJ now on a first name basis.

He just turned 21. Can't wait to see what he can do at 24.

Finally.

Atta boy, Smitty.

Skinner snipe!

Marty just said that Hutton "protected against the wrap around by spreading his legs." Sounds counter intuitive.

Yep. Sh!t happens.

If Kyle Palmieri's parents had smoked any dope back in the day, they would have named him Peter.

We don't have enough talent to make cute plays. Shoot the darn thing.

We blow for Kakko.

Tage owned that shift. He's getting better each game lately. Very noticeable (in a good way).

If the Sabres keep losing, I'm going to need a rehab coach.

I'm not advocating it, but what could a Skinner trade net the Sabres if traded at the deadline??

Fair enough, MODO. I love the kid but he has made some glaring mistakes. 2 - 3 years from now, this will not be an issue. We're fighting for the playoffs this year so it is an issue now. I believe we are a better team with him in the lineup. I think PH needs to do a better job to shelter his minutes and match-ups a bit.

I think Rasmus is going to be a superstar. But, if the Sabres continue to play him, he is fair game to criticism. The "he's only 18 years old" argument is starting to grate on my nerves like the "did you know that Nic O'leary's grandfather is Jack Nicklaus", and did you know that "Ryan Fitzpatrick wears his wedding ring while playing." Rasmus will get better, but he is costing the team goals. That's more on Phil and JBOT. But the facts cannot be ignored. He is paid millions (with bonuses) like the rest of our stars, so he needs to be accountable, regardless of age.
