So far, if camp ended after every day of camp, Murray makes the Sabres.  He's done nothing this year other than to show he belongs every chance he's gotten.

I agree.  I like what Murray brings and he brings it every shift.  

[Doohicksie]

That said, he's not a lock.  There are a lot of bubble players this year that could make the team but there aren't enough roster spots.

[Doohicksie]

Which is exactly what Adams/Granato wants I think.

[Zamboni]

Non stop motors will get a longer look in the preseason

In the land of the blind, one-eyed man is king.

I didn’t watch one second of the game but…..too early to start talking playoffs?

In the land of JAGs the guy who brings effort every shift makes the team.

Bjork was frustrating.  Two great scoring chances and.... nuthin.

That about sums up his career.

I had similar thoughts about Cozens...

[Doohicksie]

True, actually.

Mmm.  Maybe Cozens gets sent down and Quinn plays center.  You never know.

You got your wish in the third period.  🙂

I did apparently. My stream cut out so I missed it, but from what I understand they played much better. Maybe Weissbach will be something good? That would be good.

Cozens on the wing, Quinn at center. That's the better combo imo.

Goaltender comparison

1) CBJ - Merzlikins 14-15 .933 38:27

2) BUF - Dell - 12-15 . 800 29:56

Any wonder CBJ was up 4-1 after 2?

Tokarski 16-17 .941 33:56

Dell really sucked , I went to bed after the 2nd seems I missed some fun.   Toker might have a shot at #2

Buffalo News article says all 6 preseason game will be streamed but only in the Buffalo area. Obviously someone messed up last night as I could see the stream in NH. Please don't fix it.

[Doohicksie]

It said the same on Sabres.com.  In this case maybe it had something to do with the fact that it was Columbus feed?  Who knows.

Cozens appeared to struggle with the puck throughout the game.  I think he had two muffed shots and another where he had tons of room and and shot it directly at the goalie.   Not what I was expecting from him but it's still early in the season...

This is ridiculous.  Please post after every win. 

FYI, here is where the Seven Nations Army vid came from:  https://www.facebook.com/sameguysdancing/

It's a clever little project.  They figured out that Skinny Santa's skiffle step goes with just about any beat, and that if you time the entrance of Colonel Mustard for the climax in the music it really makes the video.  Professor Plum's half-hearted effort in the background also adds to it... kind of.

Which one was our trash goalie?

The one being given every chance to prove his shiny new pads belong in Cincinnati.  😉

 

Sad when the career AHLer significantly outplays you. 

[Sabres Fan in NS]

I did not watch any of the game, but seems that they should have pulled the goalie a lot sooner, like maybe even in the second period, and they woulda won in regulation.

If this was an on season game and not an off season game we would be all chearing that they snatched a win from the jaws of defeat.  Stole 2 points as it were.

I think that's what we all are doing, innit?

Not only did I not watch the game I didn't read the thread ... ha!!

Sounds like Dell’s performance was the single biggest concern since he was brought in as a stop gap, non blocking option to UPL.

Against a mostly AHL squad he did just fine.  Sadly Dell stunk against CBJ’s AHLers
