Poor Rasmus, shackled by Bryson. 

Can’t believe VO isn’t in the lineup. 😂

It's always nice to have addition by subtraction, which VO personifies right now.

Would strongly prefer Clague over Bryson to get some of the same positive benefits by subtracting a negative. I really believe Clague sucks less than Bryson.

Not exactly breaking.  He didn't play last night.

Let's go BUFFALO!!!!! All the right teams lost last night, now it's time to move up.

Bryson carrying a lot of water in their attempt to keep Dahlin’s extension reasonable, I see

This is an easy W. playing a bad team on a back to back and we are at home on the road. Tuch Thompson Skinner all with 3+

Power adds a G

Punch's birthday. He'll be having Dodo's pineapple upside down cake after the big win tonight.

We received an unexpected breath of life. It will hurt that much more if this one gets wasted as well. Cannot lose this hockey game 

[PerreaultForever]

Well we beat them before and also before they traded away some good players so no reason we can't beat them again. 

We are fast, they are slow, keep skating for 60 minutes to have success. If they suck us into playing their slow plodding physical game we are sunk.

Either Granato decided the photos weren't as damaging as he initially believed or somebody got them back for him.

Really believe it's as simple as with Dahlin playing through some sort of injury(injuries?) that they're planning on relying on Power - Jokiharju as the primary pair (like they did in TO) and Dahlin typically plays more effectively when shackled by Bryson than by Clague.  Expect if they were going to primarily pair Dahlin and Joker that Clague would be in.  His best version of passing the eyeball test has been when he's out on the ice with Power.
