Captain Marvel or a Sabres game

Tough choice these days
- gerbe75pts

no it really isn't, Marvel....


I was going to boheim rapsody before my daughter backed out.

Number 1 issue going into next year..........

Goaltending - where can we go? Who has a top prospect to grab? Who is that hot up coming goalie to deal for, that’s a big part of the summer moves. Ullmark can be a decent backup, not a #1 though.

Thatcher Demko
Ilya Samsonov
- Irish 14

too soon to throw him out as a #1. he's played some really great games this year, and he's played some bad ones.... Typical young player.

The stat they had on the pregame show:

Sabres are 7-8 when eichel scores a goal

I think they like 6K.

This may sound stupid, but I’m fine with where we’re at in goal. Fix the D, and it fixes goalie concerns. I’m happy to have two cheap netminders.

so Eichel doesn't matter?? is that the argument for tomorrow?

I'm fine for now, but I don't like either of these guys in a 7 game series.

I don’t see that #1 potential in him. Something isn’t right, think he can become a solid NHL back-up.

Ullmark the oldest on the list, but he’s ranked ahead of Peterson!

Well, we haven't won in Chicago since 2007 Before Kane was drafted . What are our chances tonight ?

Our coach has elected to condense our offensive firepower on one line, again, and to offset that by condensing our defensive exposure on a single pairing, too.

So, is the Scanner-Risto pairing a savvy, tanky move by the GM. Or a horrendous, job-endangering coaching decision?
