I’d be happy if he’d just tie up a guy’s stick in front of the crease. He gets outmuscled too often.

Yes, unfortunately Dahlin still plays small.

No, the Sabres will continue to butcher their games all season.

I’ll just DVR the hockey game and watch it afterwards. Plus you can fast forward past commercials and between periods.

Miller going to be a UFA so he’s likely to be traded at the deadline this year. Possibly Butcher too if anyone wants him.

I didn’t rank him higher because I haven’t seen him play and don’t know his strengths.

The league will probably freeze the ping pong balls again and help Montreal, as they did when Matthews went to Toronto.

I guess that means Matt Robson and (insert goalie) will be coming back from Cincy to Rochester. Wonder if they’ll let Dell or Houser play Utica tonight before they go up to Sabres.

I was coaching a U18 team over 10 years ago when our player got upended in front of the other team’s goalie. His skate went up and cut the goalie across the neck. We coaches ran out and applied pressure until the EMTs arrived. The goalie was awake the whole time, and his father was his team’s coach. Fortunately it did not hit an artery and he recovered. But everyone felt sick after that and we just canceled the game.

There’s a guy at Sabres home games that wears a #14 Robert Rockies jersey. He’s sometimes at the concession stand between periods behind Duff and Biron on tv.

The official game sheet says attendance was 8,117. But that counts tickets sold, not who used them.

Could the Sabres just send their jerseys and the Leafs could split their team in two for the game? It would probably be more competitive.

Bros before gold.

Sorry, I don’t think it’s worth the risk, especially for an unsigned player.

Assuming that Miller and Butcher will be gone, I think they could use his veteran presence as a 3rd pair D. I think he’s been the best of the veterans that they brought in.

Hopefully there are adults (coaches and parents) advising him on the risks. He could always go after being in the NHL if his career goes as hoped.

I saw Spider-man in the theater last week. Everyone was respectful and wearing masks the whole time. Finished Hawkeye on Disney+. I think it’s the best of the new Marvel short series. Lots of tie-ins to previous movies and series. I’d rank the series: Hawkeye, Loki, Wandavision, then Falcon & Winter Soldier. And I highly recommend the Netflix series Daredevil through Defenders, as there is a tie-in to Hawkeye.

I think it’s a mistake if the players go. If they have a Covid outbreak while in China they could be forced to quarantine there for weeks. That’s why NHL players aren’t going. ”The International Olympic Committee has said an athlete who tests positive for COVID-19 in China will need to produce two negative results 24 hours apart. If they’re unable to do so, the quarantine period could last from three to five weeks.” https://apnews.com/article/coronavirus-pandemic-winter-olympics-nhl-sports-health-f22d18ce32b142ce1f0530d8243ced0e

Tuch just started playing. The Sabres can’t have nice things.

I think they’ll send Krebs back, saying they want him to develop with the other young players. Or they might waive Jankowski figuring no one will pick him up. So I think Murray will stay by default, but still has to prove himself for future years.

Their two best forwards are Tuch and Thompson.

Likely because Krebs is a center and the returning players are wingers. He’ll probably go down when Cozens or Casey come back.
