I need about 5 more Tuchs on this team. Krebs, impo is not NHL ready yet. Samuelsson can stay and was my 2nd favorite defender tonight. 

Samuelsson is smooth and ready.  Very good and very solid.  They don't have anyone else like him at the moment.  Looking forward to him playing full-time here once they trade Miller for a bag of pucks at the deadline.

[bob_sauve28]

I remember that Alfredson play. Wow, 2007

[PerreaultForever]

Jankowski gives everyone a lesson in playing to the whistle lol. That was fun.

For a change we get to watch another team's young star smash his stick in frustration. That was fun too.

GM Sheevyn says he's hoping for that bag of pucks to be a 1st for Miller. Hopium is a helluva drug.

I’ll take a 2nd and run 

[Pimlach]

I am happy for the win. I needed a win from the Sabres.  I wish they would get better.

And one more time for the GWG scorer himself, The Polish Prince

If we trade our other 5 Eichels we might get them.😛 Tuch has been great, ppg so far, fast,skilled, physical, leader.

Krebs might need a little more seasoning but I really like his game.

Mule should be in the lineup for the next decade.

Houser played great.

Tuch is back to being PPG

Dahlin played alright 

[Thorner]

Feed cut out, of course, after 1-1 so didn’t see anything after that. Jankowski’s goal looked fun in the highlight but I think the highlight was missing some context. Anyways, hope I don’t miss the next go-ahead-goal because of dumb technology.

That's what Kevyn is really expecting; he's trying to set the market.

[DarthEbriate]

Really hope Okposo is fine and especially no concussion.

Hey Ghost, if you don't already have them, I think you need something for each of our Sabre goalies when they steal a victory!  Maybe a brick house for Houser tonight?

An excellent idea!  Not sure I will do one for each goalie but when the goalie steals a game, that's definitely the song.

Is it me or is Houser's neck on 'roids?

Samuelson was the third star on the TSN feed. Solid game, not flashy but efficient.

[bob_sauve28]

Houser is a good guy 

[Doohicksie]

After Houser's first stint with the team I was a little surprised they pushed him back down to the ECHL.  I'm not saying he's a playoff caliber NHL goalie but I think he's about right for this team.

[JohnC]

Some quick thoughts on this game: 

Hauser was the first star by far. If he didn't make those superlative stops in the beginning of the game when he was being bombarded this game would have been over shortly after it started. 

I'm impressed with Samuelsson efficient and mature game. He plays like a seasoned veteran. He never seems to be rushed. 

Olofsson was more aggressive in taking shots. That's a good sign. 

I like the Skinner/Cozens/Tuch line. 

I'm glad that Tuch is on this team. He is a big player who is also skilled. 

The last penalty call on Krebs was ridiculous. Right now, he isn't much of a factor. As long as he gets playing time I prefer that he stays with the big club than play in Rochester. He can learn more here than down there. 

I was impressed with Stutzle. 

A win is a win. This staggering team needs some positive reinforcement.

2018 may be one of the most important draft years for Buffalo from a defenseman standpoint.  Two of our top 4 defenders will be from that draft...assuming Samuelsson gets there (which he seems destined to become).

Wowzer Houser, good game.

Indeed! Good for Doogie!

Does anyone know how to configure it so the videos on each page don’t play automatically while scrolling on mobile? My laptop broke and I’m not used to the mobile version - it just lags and freezes with them all attempting to play
