Also, listened to the UPL interview and I have to say I think he's matured into not just a good goalie, but a solid character guy. His remarks about Comrie: I'm not sure he really believes everything he said, but I like that he was effusive in his praise of his teammate and potential rival for ice time.

I'm a little surprised no one has started a thread on this. The Band is back together (Skinner - Thompson - Tuch) Cozens centering Mitts and Greenway Krebs gets wingers who can score! Okie back to the checking line I hope this is the way they line up Saturday. There were times when Krebs looked like the best Sabres center Thursday, particularly in the second period. If he can generate some offense with Benson and JJP, and Cozens and Mitts can find some magic, and.... the Tage line can rekindle last year's chemistry, maybe the Sabres can score some goals. Y'know... for a change....

Nope. Peaches works. We were much younger when I started it.

Fun fact: I can make Mrs. Doohickie blush by singing her the line, "I really love your peaches, wanna shake your tree."

I agree with all of this. Me too but I still feel I need to say to @bunomatic

There are a couple factors driving this trend at my company. It should be temporary but in the short term they're laying off about 300 on the hourly side (I'm salaried).

Ah. You're right; we weren't on the same page atoll.

OMG: They called that a penalty?

I'm just saying... it wasn't as much of a stretch for Lindy to move back for the power play.

Lindy Ruff started his career on defense.

Because Power is out.

This brew was specially selected for tonight's game.

Forgot how strong this is. My face is growing numb.

Well the do, but it bounced on Benson.

Hopefully this is the last time I post this tonight.

Same here. In my case it was 4 times in 5 years. My management has said they see a downturn coming, possibly later this year or next. I need another three and a half years to get to 65...

Seen at a local restaurant....

I will say this: I've noticed both Clifton and Bryson being flat out beat by an opposing forward in one-on-ones, but both tend pursue just enough to get the forward out away from the slot and to the boards. Even thought the opponent gets past them, they both seem to get just enough of them to disrupt and delay until help can arrive. The other night it worked because the Sabres forwards were actively skating hard to get back in the play and not coasting back. I don't think either one of those guys is particularly fleet of foot; it's more about using the speed you have effectively. Sometimes I see power skating back in defensive coverage and everything looks under control and then suddenly the forward finds another gear and leaves Owen behind, apparently surprised by the speed of the NHL. He may not get faster, but he needs to work on his recognition of that situation, and know that the other player is going to try to blow by him and either direct him to the outside, get a good piece of him, or disrupt the puck enough to throw him off. I think waving a stick at the puck should be the last resort; better to play sound positionally and play the body.

TMI.

Maybe weary.

...and that was a serious miscalculation.

I see Kevyn bridging Reino as the first sign he was about to blow it up. It was a signal more than a year before the Eichel trade that Eichel was gone as well as his inner circle. I can.

Dangit. Another one that got away.
