My thought is the lead is already gone, and they had no business being up one goal let alone 3 at any point in this game. This is the worst game they played all season to my eyes. If they sneak a point I'm going to be happy. - lacaprup

Zegras looks good. #46 underrated. Can we have him? |

I think we're at just above a 3.0 gpg clip after tonight. Something like 3.1 or 3.2.
Anyway. Regardless of whether or not the goaltending can sustain (it can't), I think what we really have to ask is, will the secondary scoring remain? Can we be a team of "secondary scoring" this season, meaning, can everyone step up and contribute?
We need a few things to happen:
Skinner to hit 25 g's. Doesn't matter how. We need Mittelstadt back desperately, as he may be the only C on the team capable of getting him there.
Girgensons to stay healthy and get back to that 15g/15a form he had at the end of the Nolan-era.
A breakout player to emerge. Right now it's still anyone's guess, but I kept hammering on about Asplund last season needing more ice-time and more opportunities. He is like Larsson but with offensive upside. I think he will emerge as that Paille/Dumont/Barnes type of player, scoring big goals, becoming a fan favorite, and chipping in about 20 per. Tonight was evidence of his potential and I like his energy and body language - he is having a lot of FUN out there and that can be dangerous.
The defense needs to just be consistent. They will have bad nights - it's a young group. But they will have good nights, too.
Other than that, enjoy the early success, but I have a strange feeling the power is about to shift in the NHL with the soon-to-be sweeping changes and for whatever reason, I think the Sabres will fly under the radar until after the new year unless a huge Eichel trade goes down and shakes up the roster a bit.
But maybe we're at the point now where we were when GMTM gutted our prospect pool, it's too bad our superstar crybaby held his fart in too long and crapped his pants in front of everyone and is too embarrassed to show face.
I would honestly trade him to NYR for Zibanejad and a 1st and a prospect - be that Lafreniere or otherwise, I don't care. Be done with it. See ya.

Dahlin will never be the defenseman he was sold as. just have to accept he's very gifted from a skill set standpoint, but he's not great or even good in his own end. enjoy the stick handling, dangles, and occasional great pass... you're not getting anything else. - lacaprup
Yes Ralph really screwed him by trying to improve his defensive game. In Dahlins case it’s not useful to practice what your already superb at. He’s stuck on being the next Jake Gardner |

He must read Balling's HB Blogs and Comments.
Glad to see he took my comments to heart. |
