clearly 6k is why the sabres will miss the playoffs, just like last season
- homiedclown

He was the reason they missed the playoffs last year.

He’s been a top 10 goalie this season, why is it his fault we won’t make the playoffs this year exactly ?

Just cause he lets in two stinkers tonight doesn’t absolve a whole season worth of play ?

UPL should not have been asked to play his 4th game in 6 nights on the back end of a back to back to boot.

He has been a top 10 goalie in hockey this season, but yes, those two goals I’m sure he’d like to have back.

It is what it is

I'm fine with playing him today. I know they aren't really in it, but they should play like they are for now.

I wouldn't ask him to play 3 in 4 nights again later this week. Comrie time.

This isn't about a game, it's about the rest of the season. Probably want 4-5 starts from your backup. Give them to Comrie and let Levi keep playing in Roch.

I tend to disagree with this, but as long as Levi gets the proper development it doesn't matter.

Out of town scoreboard went their way tonight.

19-0-1 when leading after 2 this season.

Pissed it all away in 9 and a half minutes

He figured out his positioning issues. If he keeps it up, that’s absolutely huge for the future of this team.

Great hockey take, you’re a giant turd

I think consistent starts + playoffs > a few games backing up UPL. If you call him up, it's still UPL's net.

he could still be blah in the nhl

smaller goalies have a lower sucess rate in the nhl

- Lunaion

Upl let in a few bad ones directly in front of me tonight.

He looked tired late in the game

I would have given him the start though back to back imo

Pressure hockey

Agreed, but every young player can take away something he learned and maybe needs to work on from playing NHL Games. I hope the Sabres use this time to get a few some games.

I think he had his games this year.

Get Rosen + Rousek up soon.

This might have hurt my feelings a little. If you didn’t operate at a 100% wrong rate, 100% of the time. Cry it out in the corner. Have a tissue. See you in 3 months.

You suck at trolling and act like a spineless internet bully

Congrats at being a jerk

3 months is too soon

I'm still shocked by the idea that someone scouted Buffalo and wants EJ for the playoffs.
- Lunaion

There are more then a few that believe players play badly while with the Sabres due to the stink of the organization overall, and a change of scenery to an actual good team will change the quality of that player's play.

Get Rosen + Rousek up soon.

Hope you're not holding your breath on the above.

What's the avenue to both Rosen and Rousek getting games?

Both Zemgus and Okposo needing to be traded by the TDL?

Odds probably increased with the regulation loss tonight.

But it would be peak Buffalo for them to sweep the Toronto/Nashville back to back and keep them both for vibes

I think one of okposo / Girgensons gets moved at the deadline. Surprised if both had demand even.

Girgs seams like a guy that could withstand the playoff physicality, okposo not so much imo

When it really matters and you could actually get in the playoffs, they fizzle again. No stamina...can never win two games back to back. Sad, very sad.

They let the inmates run the asylum.

If neither wants to be moved, they won't be.

It’s hard to find players that like to play in Buffalo.

Gotta treat players right , if you have any chance of selling Buffalo on an ufa

Why would I hold my breath?

They have a spot today. Robinson doesn't need to play. Okposo's comments sure sounded like he could move. Hopefully at least 1 F does move. If not, we know guys are playing hurt. Wouldn't be shocked if they shut someone down early.

I think tage gets shut down possibly? He looks injured and isn’t the same as last season

Can already hear Adams telling the media at 4PM on Friday that they didn't trade anyone at forward because they just didn't feel like they were getting fair value in return from the offers being made on their players.

Well, if he's letting the players call the shots, and they want to play in the playoffs, then it isn't about the return.

I don't think either are back next year, so good time to start the next chapter. Don't let it drag into the summer again.

I am fully prepared for both to be back next season.
