He has been on the market for awhile, not too many teams looking for help can take his salary even with 50% retained 

Zemgus 

Swap salaries for a different skill set.

Huh.

 

They won.

 

At home.

Who gets the call from Rochester? Kulich or a Zemgus clone like Kozak?

I'm predicting Rousek.  He was skating on the bottom six when he was with the Sabres earlier.

I’m not coming back for the third.

Now I have to turn off the game next time they’re down two going into the third. It’s a burden I’m willing to bear.

Great comeback, but where was that energy in the 1st two periods?  If they play like they did in the 3rd most of the time they'd be a top-tier team.

Did someone get hurt tonight? I thought Tuch  mentioned something 

Girgensons got hurt. On top of that  we only played 11 forwards with Greenway out.

Why was Greenway out?  Dinged up?

According to Tuch on the postgame , the boos got them mad. 

Just as it was the crowd booing, coupled with their bad play, that pissed of Cozens, leading to him pick a fight with a heavyweight.  

Some of them care.

We MUST play 11 forwards, nice anticipation of another injury to forward group. 

Healthy scratch required to drive this desired starting lineup. 
 

Gotta love 3G, 8D, & 12F roster construction. 
 

Why is Bryson not waived? Someone noted possible duet on Hockey brass…. why else? He plays like 10 min when he starts .

Levi should go to ROCH (but won’t) What does HE have ? 
 

I am just asking questions. 🤣🤣

We dressed 11 forwards.  I want to believe that his hand hurt from punching a visor and a helmet. Just speculation on my part.

Why do they only care when they get embarrassed?  Where is that effort from the opening puck drop?

Almost like he's saying F' you to those of us who have been critical (myself included).  I am definitely revisiting my opinion of him based on his recent performances.

Not me.  He did more but he still a reluctant player.  Not what I want.

Need to clear out 2-3 bottom rung ‘starters’. Not working.

Did the Sabres secretly wear the goat head jerseys underneath to make them win?

No, and the goat heads suck. They're not our colours.

They are for a generation of the fanbase and they were for the last Cup run.  Live and let live.

I grew up with the blue and gold watching as a kid (I'm in my late 40's) and I so much prefer the red and black.

Sorry to hear that. I hate it when teams just change their entire colours to follow a 90's fad. They're dated and I hate them.

Interesting ice time on the Defense

Dahlin with 26+ minutes, Samuelsson with just over 20

Power still at 17+, but down from some games earlier.

Everyone else in the 12-14m range.  I expected Jokiharju to have a bit more.

Also liked the fact he mentioned once they started going he couldn't hear any Pens fans anymore and could hear Sabres fans; even the ones at home. Then mentioned how ticket prices aren't always affordable for fans. I have honestly never heard a player say something like that before.
