Honestly, Boosh sucked at the beginning of the season. Wasn't holding that against him, since sometimes players need time to get used to their new team and teammates.
He was good before he got injured, then it seemed like the injury slowed him down. Im pretty confident he'll be a good 3rd pairing guy for us going forward.

The bigger question mark is Stillman. Let's see how these next 10+ games playout. At least he's shown the ability to be a good bottom pairing defenser more often than not for Buffalo.

Didn’t watch this one but I wish I could’ve.

Awesome to see/read that the much maligned players balled out in a b2b against the team we’re chasing.

Also Comrie! Hell ya man!

We played much better than last time on the island. The boys seemed to learn how they have to play to beat that team. Growth :)

I feel like Boosh continues to deserve love. Been our most steady D for a while now and has been a bright spot while the younger defenseman go through expected ups and downs.

Mittelstadt is the other guy I want to single out. He’s gotten so much stronger and his battle level is really impressive. I’ll echo the comments saying I’m proud of him for turning himself into this type of player, really love how dependable he has become. 33 assists is no joke either.

Comrie makes history. I think they said he’s the first in the post lockout era to have a 10 goal loss followed by a shutout win. his post game interview was great
First in the post expansion era (1967) to have that dichotomous results in goaltending starts.
But…..has your sphincter healed?
Butt..., no pun intended.

I for one am proud of him telling them to get stuffed.

Hahaha that’s a pretty solid response from a hockey player. I wish he’d kept going with it. “Like you’re doing? Right now? The thing you literally just did? It sucks, right? Having the same point made over and over? Doesn’t feel good, huh? I owe you four more snarky responses, one for each goal, but I’ll close with a quick f*** you, f*** you, you’re cool, f*** you, I’m out.”
