based on benson's history? are we just gonna say since one random guy scored 30 points, the other guy will be the same? Come now.

Well Ziggy is the one that brought it up. GOD I hope he's twice the player Girgensons turned out to be.

Girgensons had such a low ceiling but was incredibly safe.

Benson may not have the comparable strength, but every other attribute is as good or significantly better.

Why can't he be compared to Marner or Point hybrid?

I would settle for 60 points and a better beer in pictures than mic ultra

I am happy to see him playing on L2 and producing.

I don't care that it is against mostly AHL competition in the 2 preseason games as I'm not using that to project what his in-season production will be. Rather, if he has chemistry with Quinn and Cozens, which he is showing once again he has.
For me, that is great news as I'm leary of Zucker there long term.

I would much rather see Benson on L2 and grow his game faster by doing so, rather than have a guy who won't be here next season taking that spot.

Incredible, its like you can know these games mean absolute zero and still take some info away from them..

Looks like Kulich is going to Europe.

I’ve never heard of 75% of the bluejackets. This should be a total domination for the Sabres. Not that way so far

Did it end up that way?

The outside WR's are the one thing not really working atm. Kincaid and Shakir in the slot is working.

4 games with the NHL team away does seem like too many.

An exhibition in Germany a full week before their games also seems silly.

I don't get the thinking behind this schedule.

Penguins are running the same or similar lineup from the other night I believe. Good game to see where some of those higher prospects are at.

I believe you have to schedule a minimum of 6 games for preseason. Im surprised they made them follow that rule with not having the minimum "vet" requirement.

Would you rather they show up a coupe nights prior and be jet lagged?

Tough to female dog about anything Bills-wise today as they looked great and got inside Lawerence's head early and often.

The D coordinator was F'd as well. Couldn't get pressure on Allen, and both Man to Man and Zone was picked apart by Josh.
Hats off to the Coaching staff

4 preseason games instead of 6

84 game regular season

I never imagined by committee working this well.

Isn't there something between 10 days early and that? The Devils don't play an exhibition, so I assume they are playing more preseason games before going over.

Do you think this schedule is fair to the Sabres?

Good call. He's a tough SOB. Took some shots last night.
