So last night on the Rangers' broadcast (which is a consistently excellent production btw), they said something that I don't think I knew:  Levi had the all-time 2nd-highest career SV% in NCAA history, behind only Hellebucyk.

And He’s right in front of Ryan Miller

But pay no attention to what happens in the next scene!

If Levi plays at the level he did last night in his remaining starts, do we start to feel comfortable that he and Comrie can be the goalie tandem for next season ?

Definitely.

Has Skinner bulked up? He looks chunkier. In a recent video where he was wearing shorts, his legs were tree trunks.

He’s certainly quite strong on the puck.

Short of one last start to close out his career if the team is mathematically eliminated, Anderson has to be done at this point, right?

Yes. If he's cleared medically then I at the very least have him dress as the backup against Ottawa in the final home game so he can get recognized by the home fans and by the Sens.

I didn’t realize there was an injury issue right now.

Kid’s a tank. I’m convinced he is in Buffalo next season.

Like I said elsewhere, this ***** goalie situation was manufactured by KA to kiss Levi’s ass.

Im not sure how I feel about that to be honest.

If he plays lights out next season I for one am perfectly okay with it.

Yeah. If it works, who cares if it was manufactured?

I mean, if you don’t care that last season was another unwatchable season that could have been avoided, why show up atoll?

Like I said, mixed feelings here.

Do we think he keeps 27 next year, or goes back to 1?

Because the process of the development takes time to play out.

But it's pretty well established that KA definitely tried to obtain Matt Murray and probably pursued John Gibson as well.  Those are not the actions of a GM who is deliberately trying to have bad goaltending.

Also, we offered Ullmark a contract.

UPL has 1, until he’s no longer in the organization.

I know that. I don't think it is too hard for the Sabres to move on from him if they wanted which is why I said next year.

Lets remove the timestamp. Do we think Levi goes back to #1 when it becomes available again?

I don't. He likes 27 and Levi doesn't seem the type to change course after he makes a decision.

Sorry, I misunderstood what you meant by manufactured. I don’t believe that he wanted the goalie situation to be like this. I don’t think that top goalies were clamoring to come here or that Ullmark wanted to stay here.

We'll see.  Had 1 been available, that would've been his number.

He wouldn't be the 1st player to switch numbers when the one he really wanted became available.  Could see him going either way when UPL moves on.
