Michael Pachla: Sabres in Columbus on NBCSN tonight Buffalo trying to make it three wins in a row

RIVALRY NIGHT

Some thoughts from the TOI last night:

Moulson and Griffith: 6:25 and 6:22, respectively. That's gonna kill our top guys tonight.

Bailey at 12 and Larsson at 11 will have to be expanded tonight to be able to somewhat roll lines.

Wow. For a guy with that amount of raw talent to have such a tough time sticking with the big club is surprising. I thought he looked fantastic against us in preseason (yea, preseason, I know)...thought he got an apple or two in the game.

Now there's a guy I wouldn't mind buying low on, if the Isles are falling out of favor with him. He certainly has the speed.

So who is the real winner here? Lol

I hope they come out and build off of the win last night. Far too often over the last 5 or so years we've seen them come out into games like this stink up the joint. I so badly want them to prove me wrong this time.

hes been good this year, dont think they are in any rush to trade him. Especially with Jost and Compher on the IR right now and MacKinnon struggling a bit.

Avs are somewhat competitive so trading duchene now, they would be a tire fire for lines with all those Cs out

And I think the Duchene demanding a trade, unhappy storyline was way way over blown.

He seems to be enjoying playing on the avs still, plus he gets to play with the most smiley man in the world. Terri Yakupov
