Just great to see !!
- Florida State WR Keon Coleman (No. 33 overall)
- Utah DB Cole Bishop (No. 60)
- Duke DT DeWayne Carter (No. 95)
Knights on the board 3-1 Sabres!
3-2 Sabres .... Knights pulled their goalie.
3-2 Sabres win !!!!
Goaltending has been far better the last 2 weeks. Now Cromrie is skating and working himself back into playing shape. Does he go for a rehab assignment to Rochester to give things time ? Do they send UPL back down ? Anderson playing well in his spot starts. Cannot carry 3 Goalies with all our other injuries. Decisions for the GM.
Still have 3 of our top 6 D-Men hurt. Depth has held the fort.
Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit
Sabres still have to work on closing out games. They are still very bad in the 3rd period.
Outshot an incredible 23-5 in the 3rd last night. Same thing happened in Colorado. All the play is in their own end. Ouch.

Tage is a beast. He has one of the best snapshots ive ever seen. Power and accuracy. Second in goals and had about 5 goals hit the post this year. Its insane. Hes the sabres josh allen
I just started watching again, havent watched much since the slug because tbh, it's extremely hard to watch hockey when your team sucks. But its so much fun to watch this team and now seeing them learning how to win
I forgot they were playing and watched the Packers last night.
Considering that it was a 10pm start, you'd be forgiven.
BTW, Buffalo is now 4th in the division(they're ahead of Florida; even though the Sabres & Panthers have 34 points each, Buffalo gets 4th due to them having 2 fewer OT/SO losses)and 18th overall in the league(ahead of Florida(again)and Calgary(Buffalo has 4 less OT/SO losses).

4-0 on a West Coast road trip- can't complain about that. I finally watched the highlights from Monday. UPL did make some great saves. Still, I don't trust him long term.
Tage is a legit superstar. When they gave him that contract, I thought it was a bit premature but now it seems like a bargain.

Look. If two years ago, you had told me the sabres would have moved on from Eichel, but had a better player than him, who is younger, and has a better contract than him, I would have laughed in your face. If you told me that player was Tage Thompson, I would have burned your house down for being a hockey blasphemer.
But here we are
That 8 game losing streak really seems killer now.
If we could have won even 2 or 3 of those games, we'd have a much better shot at sneaking into the playoffs.
I know it's a long shot, but this team is so young and there's so little playoff experience as a group. I'd love to see them get in just to get some experience, even if it means getting smoked in the first round.
Fridays game against the bolts to be postponed due to weather.
Gives them a chance to get the D healthy again

That's insane to me. I heard there was a third rounder in there too.
Anyways. It started to come after Ralph was fired. Tage started to produce, not at the clip Casey Mittlestadt did, but it came.
After what Mittlestadt did under granato after the firing, I thought it would be him who broke out
