Even when OReilly returns, I'd like to see Eichel-Reinhart remain a thing for the last stretch.

I want a decent dose of ROR/Eich and EK/SR. Give Johan one of Foligno/Girgs. He can play darts for the other wingers.

Wow Canadiens tonight? what an easy schedule we have had since the west coast.

it only gets easier. Next up is CAR-mtl-OTT-tor-car-WPG. Home games capitalized. Probably the easiest stretch of games possible

[LaxSabre]

Sabres win 6-2 - Reinhart three goals/two assists - Eichel two goals/two assists - Gionta gets the other goal - Kane goes pointless.

 

[TheStorm]

They probably won't score in the first period. That period seems to be Kryptonite to the Sabres this year.

Nope, Eller won't play.

A game both teams can enjoy.

I feel there's a Tallinder joke in there somewhere.

Primary Source #1 for the necessity of a vastly improved defense.

I think Gorges would be just fine in a reduced role...not logging #1 pair minutes.

A nice look back through time on TBT.

Exactly. I don't know why more people don't see this. Perfect #6/7 at this point.

 

[Chainshot]

Yep. Putting him further down the depth chart, slotting him better, likely improves the level of his play.
