I mean I don’t see what the big deal is. The shifts I saw. He wasn’t great and didn’t look comfortable.

write him off for the year due to 3 shifts?



great way to treat a first rounder

should have sent power to rochester after that -5 game last week as well then

Lance saying Savoie didn't play well last night, and that's why he was sent back to Junior...

my guess is kid had no chance

doubt adams, a former player, would send him down for 3 blah shifts

It's nice, but under those circumstances, a bit awkward.

That’s youth travel hockey, some kids ride the bench

Savoie’s parents are probably still gleaming with pride

>>> Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen leads the Sabres onto the ice in Pittsburgh. He’ll get the start against the Penguins.

Mattias Samuelsson is back. Victor Olofsson is taking warmups. Peyton Krebs is not.

Any chance his reduced minutes mean he's been injured? I wouldn't lean that way, but maybe?

Guesses at how many minutes Olofsson, Jost and Erik Johnson each get tonight?

>>> Sabres' 11-7 lineup in Pittsburgh with Tuch still out:

Skinner-Thompson-Peterka
Greenway-Mittelstadt-Rousek
Girgensons-Cozens-Okposo
Olofsson-Jost

Dahlin-Samuelsson
Power-Jokiharju
Clifton-E.Johnson
Ryan Johnson

UPL in goal. Levi backing up.

What a joke. 3:55 determined where he spends his season? Embarasing thing to write.

What’s the rush? We have Kulich and Rosen that are above him in the deserves to be here pecking order.

- Sabretooth9

It was his first game back, Jesus Olofsson has had 4 years to look like sh!t, maybe more than 4min to get him back into a rythum.

Definitely, a massive accomplishment, but there's no getting around that it sucks he barely saw the ice.

Could it just be a Reinhart situation where they want him to go back and work on getting stronger? The way he got hurt in preseason is the way a small, weak player gets hurt

I'm sure it is, just sucks that he has to go back there instead of Roch.

Breaking news:

My sauce is reporting that Okposo is telling the trainer he is tired already.
