GDT: Flames @ Sabres, Oct. 19, 2023 - 7pm EDT, MSG πΊ WGR π»

I think Cozens is a two way player. Slow start this season but I would not say he can't or won't play both ways. Similarly, Tage and Skinner can play both ways, the coach and the system must demand more from everyone. People complain that the team is not big. This year they are top five in both average height and weight. People complain they aren't tough - some of that comes from being an experienced veteran of which we have only a few. This is a slow start because we are not getting production from the top players. Everyone forgets that the rest of the league is no longer surprised by the Sabres. Team focus on Thompson and Dahlin, that means others have to perform and pick up their game. Did Adams do enough in the offseason? - Levi is a 21 year old rookie that was anointed the #1 goalie with 7 games of pro experience - what other GMs do that? - We essentially replaced Quinn with an 18 year old 170 pound rookie and it is pretty sad to see that on most nights the kid has been one of the hardest workers on the ice - EJ is helping but Clifton's mistakes loom large without the Boston team there to help. Joker is still the same. Bryson is our 7. Does this sound like enough? Ok, this is a slow start, we spent the preseason looking at players. It si time for them to wake up and work harder. Lets hope they can right the ship and avoid the losing streaks that we are all to accustomed to seeing. -

<sigh> Varlamov would be the #1 on our team. -
Monday will feel like a road game. Granato should play UPL/Comrie vs Isles and save Levi for the division games vs Montreal and Ottawa.

But I got us a goalie right away, and I brought in veterans to show the way, and I would never put out a team that got pushed around either. Oreos are my favorite. Oreos and Glenn Livett -
Benson had a very rough 4th game versus Calgary. It was the first time so far that he looked out if place. He earned his -3 for sure. With VO falling behind Jost, Benson will still play. Then we decide after 9 games if he sticks.

He looks behind the play a lot and he is much less physical than usual.

Blech. Not authentic and poor quality IMO. Dirty kitchen.

There in lies the rub. Levi is by far the best of the 3 goalies. Could he have benefited from a month or two in the AHL? Sure. Of course. Are we going with UPL and Comrie? If yes, we are bottom feeders again. Are we trying to win and make the playoffs? That answer should be βyesβ. How many off seasons wasted by not bringing in a NHL goalie? Oh, but Adams brought Tokarski back again, thatβs right. -

Before suggesting to send him down, letβs play the other goalies and see what they do? I put my money on Levi as the best of the 3. -

Itβs a different cast. The result is still unknown. There is talent here. Quite a bit of it. -

He missed on Ulmark. He had him. -
Yup. There was another worse play on a missed breakout. Tough game for him.

Agree. Play a backup tonight. Beat Montreal, a division opponent, with Levi. Levi is from Quebec. -

Not kidding. I will add that Peterka was also good. Levi made at least 6 huge saves at key times to keep us in it. Who plays a rookie 4 straight? Why is he playing tonight? -

Levi was the best player on the team tonight. But they canβt play him 4 straight. -

They iced it. Lol. Terrible play as Dan and Rob try to excuse it away. -

True, but if we lose with Levi tonight it hardly matters. It sucks that they played him all 4 of 4. Itβs not a pace he can keep. -

The crowd is also trying to coach this team with their knowledge of the game. The Sabres need to be better in their building. This should be a win tonight. -
