I'm calling it now, Oglevie will be the second coming of Wayne Gretzky. (Just throwing it out there so I can claim I was the first to say it if it actually happens.)I've got firsts on both Ullmark and Olofsson.
It's easy to understand. Those teams have good coaching; we do not.I do not understand how this team can play so unskilled and slow. Looking at teams like Ottawa and Montreal playing with speed and being tenacious, then seeing our nothing system that changes one game to another.
There is no reason why this team can't hound the opposition the way other teams hound us. Why do we not forecheck properly? This team is not slow yet we use speed in absolutely no way.
Gonna hold you to thatI'm calling it now, Oglevie will be the second coming of Wayne Gretzky. (Just throwing it out there so I can claim I was the first to say it if it actually happens.)
Hopefully Thompson packed more than one bag for the week, because he should be heading straight to Rochester before this roadtrip ends.
He’s shown some small flashes, but overall nothing much of value. Send him down now, get him going in the right direction and maybe he’s able to provide something on his next go-around later this year.
Actually it hasn’t but nice try. Mitts has been very responsible defensively. Tage is a one man show with no real contribution.This is getting so overplayed.
If Thompson goes down, Mittelstadt better be holding his hand on the bus because his play has been much worse.
If they continue to get good goaltending it will to improve the way the entire team plays. If it doesn't, fire Housley. When players trust the goaltending they can settle into a system. They only have to do their own job and not worry about whether their teammates are doing theirs because they have confidence in the goalie. You can't play sound positional hockey if you're scrambling to cover for teammates because your goalie is a sieve. They can play aggressive knowing a turnover isn't going to be an automatic goal against.They've been relying on their goalies way too much in their wins. If either of them have an off night you get the Colorado game. If Lehner is still their starter they maybe have 1 win.

Sabres coasting in the 3rd with their lead yet again
Refs calling multiple BS penalties

Yotes, seriously they put on a ton of pressure and have nothing to show for it. I feel bad for the fans of that team.
hes been badNo, actually that is the truth. Mittelstadt is getting eaten alive at center.
However, he will be fine just as Thompson will be. Calling for kids to be sent down after a few games is idiotic.
