1 Point against the 3 worst teams... progress!!!!

[Thorner]

Terrible coverage. 

[Pimlach]

Rookie Olofsson missed the net, then did not get back.  Can’t take wide roller hockey turns kid.

Phil is safe for now. 

[Beer]

Ullmark ducked under that shot

[Stoner]

PTR help me out. What kind of goalie move was that by Ullmark?

[Gatorman0519]

Win 2 in a row?  We haven’t won in regulation in over 4 weeks! ... almost 5!

All thing considered, an entertaining game.

The turtle

Oloffson does have game... he looked like he belonged 

[Pimlach]

I was surprised that Phil gave OT ice to Skinner and Olofsson.  Sobotka must be in his dog house.

Housley is playing with house money... give the kids a chance over the corpses on this roster

41, 33, and 92 looked solid which is nice; if we couldn't win against these last three teams, who knows if we'll put up a fight in these final five games. 

[Beer]

Sheary on the first OT unit is questionable, Skinner should be in that spot

[Nitro60]

Olofsson had a good game.   Like his post game interview.  Humble guy.

Him, Nylander, and Borgen look like they have a future here ... I’d like to see more of CJ too ... certainly better than many of the guys we have

I concur.  They have the passion to play.

[inkman]

Just a bizarre game. Pilut is battling a guy in the corner, opponent breaks still, Detroyit puck.  ***** like that happened all game.  Amazing.

It was nice to see passionate play again.  They've been sleep walking for months imo.  

[GASabresIUFAN]

PH should have put Olofsson and Nylander with Dahlin in the OT just to have some fun and show confidence in the guys.

The overtime goal? Ullmark moved too far to the left. It only seemed like he ducked. What he was doing was reaching back because the shooter put it on the spot he vacated.

Sorry if you were expecting a defense of the goalie. It was a poor night for Ullmark. But the way Jimmy Howard looked like he was coasting by the end too.

You can always ask and I'll break it down for you.

I didn’t say that, maybe Skinner on line 2 with Jack Hughes

That would be awesome.

I think Sheary is faster than Skinner and they wanted to chase down the puckhandler if they lost the faceoff, which is pretty much what happened and we got the puck back right away.

Both incorrect and misleading. 

Incorrect in that 9 Sabres draft picks have played in the NHL since the 2014 draft (Reinhart, Lemieux, Olofsson, Eichel, Guhle, Borgen, Nylander, Mittelstadt, Dahlin) and only 6 from the 2013 draft (Ristolainen, Zadorov, Compher, Bailey, Baptiste, Malone).

Misleading for several reasons: the 2013 draft had an unusually high number of draft picks at 11, drafts from the previous 2-3 years can't realistically be expected to have the same NHL presence as one from 2013, the number of players who played in the NHL isn't a good measure of actual impact at the pro level, and highlighting the 2013 draft while omitting all of Regier's many other ATROCIOUS drafts only mitigates his role in the franchise's current quagmire.
