You always play the hot goalie. If the Sabres keep winning we won't see Levi until San Jose or Anaheim in 11 or 12 days.

This is the thinking from a generation ago.  Rest and recovery vary by player, but the average annual starts for goalies these days is between 50-55. 

Plus Levi has had success playing against his old hometown team.

More than 1 in 5 people have the day off, not to mention all the shift workers that don't get to see games at night because they are usually working. Lots of retirees, students, government workers, banking, wall street, etc are off today.

 

 

Sorry to break it to you since you're tryin so hard to be right, for some reason, but this is not true.

Benson slashed Xhekaj lightly after the last whistle. He tries to be extra tough on Quinn and takes a bad penalty. The 3rd pair defenders who try to be tough are easily seduced by their darker sides.

He doesn’t try to be tough.  He is tough.  I don’t think anyone on the Sabres lineup will be looking for him as a dance partner.

Banks are closed and bond market is closed.  FYI the bond market is MUCH larger than the equity market.

Sure.

I don't care.

You don't switch out hot goalies during a winning streak, especially when the goalie is playing this good. Levi will get his 20-25 starts and how he plays will make a huge role in whether or not they make the playoffs.

This isn't that type of team that can afford to do things like that. Maybe if they were good they could do this but they need to fight and put the best players out there to try and win.

I love how Rob says "agsorb" instead of "absorb."

I work for M&T and can confirm I’m off today. 

Do actual humans even still work in banks?

Who knew.

I think starting your backup against the worst team in the conference is a good idea.  Clearly people don’t agree lol

Uhhh.  So far the Sabres are playing to the level of their competition 

 

I want to see better hockey in the 2nd period.  In the meantime, I’ll make a sandwich.
