Takes me back to the Covid social distancing days.

I love the idea of Tuch having a letter and could definitely support him even sporting the "C". That said, the Sabres have already made their bed though...Dahlin is the only one wearing a letter today and next year (when KO and Girgs are gone), I think the management would view it as a breach of protocol to give the C to somebody who is not already an alternate today.

Wondering how you think Benson's IQ compares to say Jack Quinn? Not trying to suggest anything, but simply interested in how you think they compare?

Just watched the game on DVR....fantastic 3rd period for the win! Did anybody catch the post goal celebration after Benson's goal? He was surrounded by TNT, Tuch, Power and Muel....he looked like a sapling standing between 4 redwoods...great image!!! But he clearly stood above all of them with his performance!!!

IDK - I wish Power had even half of Krebs' attitude. If he played like Benson, he'd be an all-star.

If it's Marty Wilford, then he's turned Owen Power into Mike Wilson....ironically they both have the initials "MW".

WTF Power! Vegas guys crashing our net and he stands there watching them....doing absolutely NOTHING! FFS knock somebody down!

I think it's worse actually....Risto at least played like somebody 6-4 with size and a little edge. Power plays like he's smaller than Benson and his edge is duller than a pair of rental skates.

Who is our assistant coach responsible for the defense? Clifton and Power were pretty rough on the PK there.

How did Tuch miss that?!? EDIT - I think Eichel deflected that!

Time for me to eat some more crow! 😁

Is Dylan Cozens going to score a goal before 2024?!?!

IMHO - yes, they care, BUT I think they also feel outmatched in terms of having enough hard-nosed, physical players to compliment their "finesse" style of play. Such players can instill a greater sense of "security" in their minds to play with more freedom. I also question if they have enough confidence in their coaching staff and management to make the changes necessary.

I have tremendous respect for KO, but as they always say in professional sports....."It's a business!" I think loyalty is admirable, but it can also be a double-edge sword (sabre) that can blind you from doing what it takes to win. I'd love to see KO continue with the franchise in a non-player role, but this year's team needs more than what KO can provide on the ice....and maybe it is actually in his best interest to have an opportunity to be part of an actual playoff contender before he hangs up his skates for good. That said, even if GMKA trades him....it matters not unless he fills the vacancy with the type of player the Sabres actually need (not some Rochester minor league or prospect that is not ready to make the jump)

Unfortunately, YES.....it's like a disease though. I moved away over 30 years ago, but the Sabres are in my blood.

Haven't watched the DVR recording yet.....what happened to Skinner? When did it occur (approx. game time)? Any idea of what his injury may be.....something more specific than an UBI or LBI please.

Time for my DVR to take over.....that's a wrap for me.

So an 18 year old rookie is our best player tonight.....I love the kid, but the other 20 guys and coaches should be embarrassed.

Did the Sabres forget to bring their sticks to this game? Seems like the only reason why otherwise they can't shoot or defend 🙃

I'm at a point (already) where I hope the do NOT get a SOG....why not fully embarrass themselves on national TV...let's not try to put any lipstick on this pig!

I'm glad Levi isn't even dressed, let alone playing for this $hitstorm of a game.

Agree....IMHO - for next season we need to acquire 2 more vet forwards with speed who can play a more physical and defensive style....it's not our young guys or Rochester. I can only hope GMKA will finally wake up and understand this (and then do his job).

If the trade for Robinson means we get two for one (Robinson PLUS an improved Krebs), then I will give GMKA props for making a deal that works out better than I first thought.

Eric Robinson and Peyton Krebs were both +4 tonight....great game fellas! You too KO!

Who knows...maybe he'll actually start to sound more intelligent....if so, then we'll know he was concussed 😁
