Questionable penalty; weak goal. -

Agree. Their line had only 12 minute ES over two games with a 34% Corsi and 12/1 high danger chances against/for. Cozens played better in his two previous with JJ and Quinn despite them struggling. Neither Vinnie or Rasmus have played much recently so we can give some latitude but both need to step up their game today on a new line. Musical Walkover. -
Latin lesson today. Ty!

Winning, and having the #2 seed is awesome, but sending the Hoody/Pats home with a losing record and no playoffs is just so comforting.

Recent history I suppose. For every top 10 draftee that takes 2+ years to develop (Quinn, Suziki, Glass) there are multiples who are contributing in D+1 - Necas, McTavish, Berniers, Kent Johnson, Cole Sillinger, L Raymond, Cole P, Lundell, Jarvis, Zegras, Dach, Cozens, Elias Petersson, etc. Even Mitts made the squad in 2018. So if there is talent in the bottom six keeping him out, he would most assuredly will see a top 9 role by 2024. If Mitts is truly finding his game as a forward on the RW, and Jost continues to contribute in his role, then both contract situations strengthens the Sabres ability to develop Savoie another year with no risk. This also assume Krebs continues to develop with a grinder line this year and next. But history says many of these kids are ready D+1.

Just thinking the same. Saying if the Sabres can keep it behind the Blue Line and limit turnovers, āthey canāt play with usā shows confidence. Well received. -
Just read this to my father, who is visiting from Buffalo. He recalled seeing Pete multiple times back in the day at a breakfast place on Hertel Ave and he always had time to chat up the boys about the Bills/Sabres/Bisons. š

Not that this tournament is the end all, be all, but six goals in six games, and chosen as player of the game is anything but āinconsistentā. Coupled with his playing in the AHL at 18, I would say his development is on šÆ.

What Sabres Podcasts do people here listen to?

Curious about the shift away from Def zone face-offs for this line, and specifically Mitts and VO. When Casey was on the wing with Tage he saw a 53% O-zone rate. With Vic for the entire year (with/without Jost) they were 58%. And with neither, Mitts was a staggering 28%. In 84 minutes of time. So why would a coach drastically reduce Defensive Zone face offs over the last few games (since the formation of the line with Jost- Arizona) for a player when they are statistically one of the better performers on the team? Not that Face-offs matter, eh Liger š. The answer could be the offensive prowess of the three and better opportunity to score. But Iām more glass half empty on this one. Itās fear that a team struggling on the Dot will lose possession and increase the chances against with Mitts/VO in their own zone.

Bryson may have been a +1 but wasnāt fine. Horrible pinch/decision to pinch, out of position multiple time and still loses more puck battles than he wins. I bench him before Clague, when Joki is healthy. Not like it hasnāt been said consistently on multiple threads, but the Sabres need to trade for a RD.
