Rousek from Biro.  Amerks 1-0.

Comrie with a big save keeping it 1-0 Amerks

Are these stats accurate? Amerks being outshot 34-13? I mean... sure, Comrie needed a conditioning stint, but it'd also be nice to let him ramp up to an outright shooting gallery.

No apparent updates here but AHL.com says we won 3-2.

I posted this elsewhere: Was at the game today. Very weird game. The shots were heavily tilted in Marlies favour but it never felt they were in control of the game. If anything I felt Amerks were more in control but didn’t produce shots out of it.

Comrie was solid, I didn’t even know he was sent down until I saw him in net.

Amerks have a solid D corps. Much more balanced now.

For those pushing for a Biro callup I don’t see it. He is a good AHL player but I don’t see him upending anyone on the roster for a spot.

Rochester has a solid AHL team. Good balance of vets and kids (Disappointed I didn’t get to see Rosen or Kulich)

I found the difference between the two teams is I can see 3-4 Amerks eventually becoming Sabres while really no one on the Marlies has a realistic chance of being a Leaf long term.

Just finishing up watching the game now, because wanted to see hiw Comrie looked.  Nothing he could do about the 1st one, but the 2nd was a (pre-last 2 weeks) UPL Special.  Horrible angle shot that got over his shoulder & under the crossbar.  Other that that, he looked good.   Got lucky on a couple, but every goalie does.  Could make for a good battery mate w/ UPL.

Q for you.  Are the 3 Amerks you see in the NHL Rousek, Kulich, & Rosen or are you adding Kisakov & Weissbach to that?  (Or possibly somebody else?)  Agree the 1st 3 will be Sabres w/in the next 2 seasons.  Not sure about the rest.

Yes, and I meant long term Sabres. Cederqvist with his combo of size and skill has a chance as well. Kisakov and Kozak are young and have a chance as well. Kozak with a couple of years of mentoring from Peca could be a good bottom 6 option but their development is key over the next couple seasons.  Guys like Weissbach and Biro can be called up but I don’t see them as long term NHLers. Murray and Mersh are solid AHL guys but don’t have the skating to do it at the next level. The D corps is solid for the AHL but none of them look like more then spot call up duty when injuries hit.
