Thanks.


I was impressed that he always seems to be in front of the net at the right time. If he keeps doing that, he's going to be on the plus side of the ledger a lot. He completely takes away the goalies view

We don't give jobs round here, we earn them. Hank's sample size is much too small, I require and entire season before I make a decision.

Thanks.

Fwiw, Granato almost exclusively put Risto out there when Murray was on the ice

of (frank)ing course he did. You know why? cause Risto is elite at getting the puck to the other end of the ice without control.

"Rasmus, get the puck to an area that ensures Big Boy charges to the net."

"You got it, boss"

NO he's an ICEHL level goalie. When he wins, he's a cup winner. When he loses, he only deserves a spot on a distant European semi-pro team. Because logic.

Nice write up Hank, didn't mind Murray one bit. Did more in 1 game parking his Ass in front of the net, then most other Sabres have done all year.

Thanks. Yeah it's definitely a useful skill set when you're that big. Way too soon to say if he'll be a regular going forward at any point but he wasn't noticeably bad.

I would like to see him throw the body around a bit more

Think just trying to get his feet wet and worrying about not taking himself out of plays. I am more surprised with Samuelsson, he hasn't played bad, but we really haven't gotten the hitting I was expecting.

Him and Joker started off well together, but really think they both need different partners.
