I loved Skinner when he was here but was glad they moved on. He’s got three goals in 15 games and had the least amount of ice time for Edmonton last night.

I saw a video of Tage Thompson fighting once. Ruff did talk about guys that can chuck ‘em. It had nothing to do with Malenstyn. You are looking for something that no one else expected of him. grit on the 4th line - leads the team in hits and third amongst forwards in blocked shots in limited minutes. Led the team in hits today and the forwards in blocked shots. Touted as our tough guy…no

“You have to trust how you’re playing” does not sound like a dig at their work ethic.

Nobody billed him as our new big tough guy. He was billed as a guy that’s fast (he is), hits (leads the team), blocks shots (3rd amongst forwards), and kills penalties (only :48 secs/game). You have an issue because they traded for him. He’s been as advertised and has been a very nice addition to a solid 4th line https://www.statmuse.com/nhl/ask/nhl-hits-leaders-sabres

Not bad

Every player in the league racks up points that are nothing to write home about. No point in picking them apart.

60 point pace for the season. I’ll take it.

Tragic 🕺😃

Swayman 4 goals allowed on 10 shots in the first period tonight. A terrible shame. All my best to perreaultforever in this most difficult time.

I imagine many of the people that take issue with Dahlin also took issue with Eichel and Reinhart. There was no shortage of detractors for either of them. Some people require a villain even if they have to manufacture one.

Sounds like breaking news

The play leading to the Tage goal was spectacular. He shut Seguin down cold on a rush and must have been shot out of a cannon to join the play and get the primary assist. Would love to see the whole ice view of that sequence.

Ok

Special teams obviously need work. Against a Cup favorite tonight they gave up 1 SOG across three shorthanded situations and the one pp they had was the best effort of the season. yes, show me the baby. Nevertheless…

Of all the possible explanations does this make the most sense to you?
