The key with Benson will be not expecting too much, too soon from a roster standpoint. Quinn will be really good: but probably not this year. Don’t make that mistake again

Benson is different. He's smarter and engine revs way higher.

Not bad. A little slow to start the second.

My worry is that Quinn ain't got no dawg in him.

They look good.  Horrible turnover led to StL goal.

[#freejame]

We’ve tried the same god awful zone entries for YEARS now. I don’t understand. 

[LGR4GM]

Holy f the drop pass remains the dumbest thing ever on the pp

[Pimlach]

Zone entry problems. No shots on the pp

Edited November 15, 2024 by Pimlach

[LGR4GM]

3 drop passes and 3 failed entries.

Ya maybe. I’ve not seen you tout a player more than Quinn coming into this year, though - and he’s just not there yet. You were turning down my suggestion that Peterka could be better, outright, remember? 

I was certainly wrong on Quinn, too: though I still think he may end up our best F one day, I thought he’d excel this year 

[HumanSlinky39]

Another nice save by Levi.

[#freejame]

Maybe I should turn it back off 

[Brawndo]

2-2

Jack Quinn will be fine 

[LGR4GM]

Trash defense he yet again. 

[HumanSlinky39]

Then he lets in some soft serve. 🤦‍♂️

[GoPuckYourself]

defense continues to be mediocre.

[#freejame]

Great defense Dahlin

Boo.

Zach Benson is going to be better than Quinn and Peterka.

[Wyldnwoody44]

Yuck, D and Levi. Mmm KA, good job 

[mjd1001]

That was a good shot from a prime area, but Levi had a chance to see that one and get set up.

Tough save, but when he sees it and is set and not moving, I need that save.  To me thats more on the goalie than the D, even though I want Dahlin to step up toward the shooter a bit.

Comedy of errors so far in the second 

Terrible PP

ESPN Crew notices Power’s bad play. 
 

Levi fails to cover up for them, again. 

[Wyldnwoody44]

@LGR4GM

I like Benson a lot too, I remember when we picked Quinn at 8, a lot of people were miffed that we left Rossi and etc on the board. 

I recall you saying similar things about Quinn before the injury and now he's just a shell. I'm hoping your man crush doesn't doom Benson 😜

[CallawaySabres]

Buffalo will win this game tonight because the loss to Montreal and St. Louis back to back just won’t happen. It absolutely cannot happen.

Benson isn't Quinn. Not even close.
