Well look around at other goalies in their rookie season and figure it out.

Hellybuck played 26 games in his first season
Saros played 21 games in his first season
Demko played 27 games in his first season
Vasilevsky played 24 games in his first season



I can give you more examples if you like?

Why leave out their AHL games? Isn't that a big part of the picutre?

And every one of those goalies played games in the AHL before there first full season. Your point means nothing, the kid needs to play games, not sit on the Bench for 2 weeks at a time. Horrible Development

As lazy as this is you could at least post the ages of these goaltenders during their first NHL seasons, while also acknowledging AHL time prior to NHL games...but don't want to destroy the moronic thought you are having.

Follow the money trail.

There are 13 families that run the world.

3 fund companies essentially own everything.

Democrats vs Republicans give the people something to debate about but they are just puppets on a string for the world’s elite.

The third world war we are about to enter was predicted decades ago.

Everything is planned

Also ignoring playing in the AHL during those seasons. Hellebuyck played 26 games his first season in Wpg, but also 30 in the AHL.

And we are at the halfway mark which means Levi will play the same amount of games As the other goalies in their rookie season by the time the season is over.
b
Levi also played 2 AHL games so he will be at 35-40 games by the end of the year. If you want to include AHL games Levi has played 21.


Perfectly fine for a rookie.

Hellybuck played almost a 100gms in the Ahl before his 1st season
Vasilevsky started over 50 games in the KHL and then 25gms in the AHL before hand.
Levi should be playing games for his development.

So you are including more than one season then which is just stupid.

If you want to do that Saros played 150 NHL games over 5 seasons before he become the starter. Thats 30 games a season. That didn't ruin him.


So explain how its ruining Levi? Just nonsense.

Why is it stupid, you are the one who failed to say what they actually did before there 1st season of Starts. Stupid is saying Levi is fine sitting on the Bench not playing somewhere.

Yeah that 7-2-1 is included in the 9-9-2 stretch hombre.

Sabres are 4-2 in January with an opportunity to do some more damage the remaining 5 games left in the month.

Haven’t begun scouting this years draft and don’t plan on it.

They’ll be 4-6 points out by the end of the month
- Swedish_Jesus

So the sabers 4-2 in their 9-9-2 span fantastic. Sign of great things to come.

The wings 7-2-1 stretch in their 9-9-2 span is just a blip on the radar, and not sustainable for success.

Interesting interesting

No it's not homie, and we all know that. But the kid should still be playing games, sitting on the bench for 2 weeks isn't helping his Development.

in my man cave, there is a marine midland bank pom pom dated Jan 3rd 1993 with it's matching ticket stub and the newspaper headline the next day

future generations will not be able to have something like that though

And whats that do for you?

Its all sentimental.

Ya, you are right.

Levi playing 35-40 NHL games in his first season is ruining him.

Buffalo should cut him.
