They have more goals in the first 12min then the past 3 games combined.

Saw the Wild in person a few weeks ago. They're for real, set your expectations accordingly 😳 That said, with a win tonight and losses by both FLA and TBL, Buffalo would find themselves in 2nd place in the Atlantic.

newsflash.... he's good 😂 And he's doing all this at 2 days removed from his 22nd birthday Locking him up for 7 years at $8.5m was one of KA's better decisions. Sure he could be more physical and make better decisions, but he's still a baby when it comes to defesemen. He'll continue to develop.

When you take a draw, you can go overhand or underhand (with your bottom hand). Overhand grip you're most likely trying to pull it back on your backhand side, underhand (normal grip) your likely going strong side. Putting your stick down first gives your opponent the opportunity to counter your tendencies before the puck is dropped.

A few in person observations... McLeod's skating and smarts really stood out. Impressive player. Benson looks like he's gained some speed and quickness from last season. Tuch looks like he's playing hurt. UPL was fantastic... positionally sounds, absorbed pucks, used his athleticism when required and battled to see shot lanes.

which jersey should i wear to the game tonight? - old goathead (no name plate, #3... was gary galley iirc) - eichel anniversary - blank away white - white Allen - blue Allen - none of the above - all of the above

Not a single prospect has ever had their career ruined by playing too many games in the AHL.

sabres trainers....

Fortnite is a one dimensional player. If he's not producing points he's a liability... always has been. Most Sabrespacers judge players based solely on their point production. Being a good hockey player is much much more than that.

Let's go Buffalo!

Loved the 3rd period effort and mental toughness after the disallowed goal. They were the better team in final frame and got rewarded. Keep it going.

Media trying to drum something up, nothing concrete here. If anything, under Adams there have been fewer leaks on trades.... so to me this is just Dreger prognosticating.

If you ask any GM if they're open for business, they'll say yes. IMO this is just the media attempting to manufacture "breaking news".... nothing to see here, move along.

Sad news. RIP Claude. Life is short... cherish every moment with those you love, time spent together is life’s most precious gift.

They're at 14 games with an new head coach.... reserving judgement until the 20 game mark, however some encouraging signs lately. Fun fact, I'll be at game #20 in Anaheim. I'll let everyone know how it goes.

They look lost out there... all of them. Like they're all playing a different system. It seemed like evey shift guys are running into each other, misreading plays, just a big jumbled mess. Hoping by game 20 they figure it out, but man, seems ike they're going backwards right now, tough to watch.

I'm calling this the low point if the season. They're on the brink of settling in to Lindy's system. It's always darkest before the dawn. Over the next two weeks they'll turn a corner and never look back, erasing the playoff drought for good with decade after decade of playoff births and Stanley Cup glory! ....or not.

Not to pick on Dahlin, but this play just cannot happen.... on the PK no less. Our Captain is in great position here... but he never does a shoulder check.... eyes glued to the puck. Complete lack of awareness. Where are you going! Leaves a 57g scorer all alone in front for a tap-in, probably the easiest goal he'll score all season. This play really grinds my gears, it's undisciplined and shows an extreme lack of awareness. I've benched PeeWee level players for less. You cannot win hockey games against good teams when your Captain has his head up his ass.

He's been in the league for 6 full seasons. Undisciplined, lack of awareness. Do better.

Mittlestadt is a -6 after 4 games and the Avs are 0-4.

He's only 23, he'll be fine. He's in a bit a of rut at the moment, seems to be thinking too much out there trying too hard by overthinking instead of playing instinctually. He has all the tools and he's been getting scoring chances. He works hard, I'm not concerned.
