Right now, he's a +2

And +2, to boot!

Asplund!

Balls.

This is AMAZING

TNT

Not just you. He looks like he's gonna change out of his uniform and try to sell me a 1998 Buick Regal.

We are a team that has played a brutal schedule over the last month and was wrapping up a road trip against 3 of the top 5 teams in the league. Other than the EDM game a few weeks back, the boys have been beating good teams, and if they weren't winning they were keeping it very close. I think they're worn out and we saw it on the ice today. We were due. That said, we are still a ways off from being in the same discussion of the Carolinas and Floridas and Tampas. We gave a foundation, but there's still work to do. The worst thing that could come from their performance the past several weeks is the fans expecting that this team is reaching its end state and is ready to compete with the big boys for the long haul. They're not. Yet.

Oofta. 4-0?

Okay, watching back..id be just fine never seeing Bjork in a Sabres uni again. Dude is the drizzle shits.

Wtf, I literally just went to check the mail?

I just remember hearing/reading it some point. But, if it was an option, letting him go was definitely a gaffe. I'm hopeful this years struggles would wake him up if that's the case. There's cap space out the wazoo, so hopefully he can get a good one here this summer.

Didn't Ullmark want out, though? I could be remembering it wrong, but I thought he wasn't interested in re-signing. As for his handling of the goaltending situation, I can't complain too much about this season's strategy. I think the plan was probably that Anderson could be a steadying force and play okay enough, which he has for the most part, but he ended up getting hurt for a while. UPL looked really good before getting hurt, and his durability is a concern. The one thing I'd nitpick about is why Houser hasn't been given more of a shot over Toker/Dell. I don't know that he has NHL chops, but the way he played in his couple chances, id say he earned at least a shot. This summer will tell a lot. A lot of teams are gonna be in the hunt for help in net, so it isn't going to be easy, but I want to see KA at least making the effort. At the same time, I don't want him to overpay for a replacement level goalie. If goaltending ends up being his downfall, he certainly won't be the first or last lol. And the name comes from a how I once heard the Dominator's style described..."The Human Slinky" 😁

It definitely does. But, it's not gonna be as simple as KA waving his magic wand and landing a goalie. Lot of teams need help there, it's gonna be a tough market. Hopefully he can get one of them and UPL can stay healthy and live up to some of the potential he was showing before he went down.

Yeah. Given the circumstances, I can't be upset about this. The fact that they took one of the top 2 teams in the league down to the wire, in their barn on the back end of a back-to-back is a good thing.

Eh, I get Tuch trying to cool him out. Dahlin was just wilding and Tuch was thinking about the games ahead and not wanting him to face a suspension. Smart, Captain-ly thing to do. He still probably gets one, didn't he make contact with a linesman? And Bennet is a punk. Hopefully somebody pops him good next time we meet.

Bad game from from Dahlin, but if this fanbase starts saying he sucks again I'ma type mean things.

Go out swingin', eff it.

That's a heartbreaker. *****.

Son of a bitch.

Geez, Asplund...

That five game spurt brought them up to 13.9

Welp, another 3-1 lead evaporated. I hate 3-1 leads.

I can kinda forgive some sloppiness in the midst of a 3/4 night death march against friggin' Carolina and Florida, but I really, really wanna win tonight, dammit.

Let's not blow another 3-1 lead, yes?
