Nice analysis from the OP. Something I feel has been missing from the drafting history are some players with more grit and tenacity. Yes, you need to draft talent, but I also wanted to see some more size with toughness sprinkled in. We drafted "nice" players, but few or none brought an edge with them.

Agree with both of these....something I like about Lazar is the fact that he's about 6' tall and nearly 210 lbs. Not the tallest guy for sure, but he has enough weight and strength to win battles. Not too many guys have the same body type and I think we need more "thick" bodies on this team!

Eichel really finding ways to help his team like nobody else can. Had a highlight shortie last game and now a rare OT penalty shot tonight!

Yes...Jack is walking the walk with regards to his growth as a/the leader on this team. I remember a couple years ago when between periods he had a completely dejected look on his face and Russ Brandon ended up talking to him afterwards. Fast forward to today, he has impressed me with how he handles his interviews and leadership with other players. I remember how he was talking to Dahlin on the bench when the coach benched Dahlin in the last period of that game.

Go Bills!!!

I think Jack has a better shot than McDavid!

Kind of like the commercial with the "Bus" playing flag football!

Yes...he's really starting to grow on me! I'd like to see him stay up for the rest of this season and maybe beyond!

First win after being behind after the 2nd....I'll tip my hat to the team for coming from behind!

No worries, surely there is another bottom 6 forward that JBOT will make a trade for. ?

With the exception of October 2019, we haven't had a powerplay since Disco Dan's days. Unfortunately there is nothing to suggest that they can break the cycle.

Let's hope he can recover like Skinner last season. I fear it is a right knee injury....but all we will get tonight is that he is still being evaluated with a lower body injury.

Just typical....another injury, this time without even an opposing player involved. Victor will be missed, but don't worry....Erod is ready to go!!! ?

Sabres managing about 1 SOG every 3 minutes. Wow, they really have learned from their previous losses, haven't they?!?!

He'll join Bogo and Erod after this game and contact TSN....he wants a change of scenery.

Along with taking Okposo's and Sobotka's contracts off our hands as well ☺️

Given the curse of the 50th season so far, it would be Buffalo's luck that all of a sudden we start having a rash of D-men injuries. Our situation could go from having a surplus to a deficit of NHL blue liners. I don't like to think this way, but why not expect this?

Yes...I've been thinking maybe he should get some line 1 ice time.

Nice work by Mojo....he seems to have a little jump in his game tonight.

Hopefully so....but I think he is a left-handed shot.

Good call....just not very excited about it becoming reality.

Yes...and although the circumstances were different, he also traded Evander Kane away. I felt Kane was another forward who could take care of himself and provide that physical forecheck (with speed) element we need, plus score some even strength goals.

I think there are soccer teams that play tougher than the Sabres. ?

We'd be happy with a tie right now if Linus could have made a very simple save...still upset about that one!

If there was supposed to be a set play after the time out, I sure as hell could not tell what it was supposed to be. Ugly!
