5 - 3 the way this one is going, we'll have more chances.

Sabres definitely have the personnel to come back in the third.

They also have the personnel to lose 8-4.

3 rebuilds in that period, 4 out of 14. Is there any way to compare that (un)success rate to other teams?

Jesus. He never did anything close to that for anyone on this team.

He's always been tough, he eats a few bigtime shots here and keeps going

Hopefully Krebs understands the difference between being a strong man and a strong kid after this game. He needs to eat as many burgers as he can get a hold of. Max Domi threw him with one arm.

Fitzgerald has been impressive, definitely a 6-7 right now with potential for more. He doesn't scare me like Butcher.

They do have one whole playoff series win with that group of 47 1OA guys, though.

He brings a physical presence that nobody else on the blue line brings. Would take him as a 5-6 next season for sure.

Mittlestadt is a poor man’s Yakapov. Sabres would’ve made the bubble over Montreal if Mitts played anything like Nail

Cozens and Quinn too. Quinn takes his first NHL hit in his 2nd game and is out for 6 weeks. Absolutely love Cozens, but he gets muscled off the puck.

Sabres have half a team that still have to grow into there bodies, should be fun when they do.

Pittsburgh?

21 - no pick
20 - no pick
19 - Samuel Poulin
18 - no pick
17 - no pick
16 - no pick
15 - no pick
14 - Kasperi Kapanen
13 - no pick

Is no pick better than a Nylander? A Grigaranko?
