Still one of the strangest Cup winning teams. They actually got outscored in the Final.

Benson was only 13 at the time, there’s no way he could’ve helped Boston.

One center injury for a month and they're cooked
- Hank Balling

Agreed,

How many fights can they lose before their spirit is broken?

IMO, the strategy remains the same heading into year 5 against the Sabres, intimidate and play your backup goalie. I don’t even know what to change to make opponents change their strategy

Why isn’t top3GM in there?

Rigged?

I think Johnson has a ticket to Roch to start the season. Not a big fan of how they have handled him, and I don't think he is either. A trade wouldn't be a complete shock.
- Lunaion

That’s interesting, Johnson has nhl defenseman written all over him imo

Gotta give to get, he could be considered a prospect teams would possibly want

I’ve considered him a lock for the 2024-25 roster

Year 5 and we're still here


- Hank Balling

I think byram is absolutely a 3/4 guy, we’ve been looking for .
More likely a 2/3 imo

I really like the group, another 3/4 would really prepare for injury

The fix is in

Loustarienen sticking his leg back and Foegel gets called

Danny B top 10 GM in his first year. Whatta stud.

Isn't Herb dead? Who knew he came back as a hockey coach.

Even the best let in soft goals.

@Sabretooth9

Tkachuck hasn’t done anything in 2 rounds now

Don't believe in Sammy? Or his injury history ?

yes

UPL does that for once or twice a game

Go back and watch.

He had 5 points in 6 games against NY and he leads Florida in playoff scoring.

Good conversation this morning with Sportsnet guy Hope this doesn’t turn into them crumbling from the selfimposed pressure. These guys are head cases. The difference between them and being in the Confernce finals is confidence.

That’s interesting, 4th highest paid defense

I’d say on paper, this is best Sabres defensive squad ever.

Of course power needs to play to his draft position

Bad second half and was bad in Roch. Also the cruel reality of being waiver exempt. If someone gets hurt, Johnson can come up. If Johnson is up and someone gets hurt, you're calling up the next Clague.

Same logic applies to Levi and all the forwards. I think they'll go with Levi, but that's the risk. They may send down all the F's, except Benson because they can't. Not blocking anyone is the biggest lie KA's told.

Thanks for the good listen 👂

I think Lindy keeps these guys loose but ready when the puck drops.
