There are post-game interviews with Krueger and 2-3 players after every game. I'm a NHL.tv subscriber and watch them there. They're also on the podcast channel "Sabres Hockey", available on Google Podcasts (and other podcast providers, I'm sure). I'm sure there's other sources, but this is where I get them from. Dito the pre-game interviews.Will there be post game interviews of any kind this year?
Risto with 8hits I see. How has he looked otherwise in the 3 first game? I just statwatched that he has 15 hits and a +3.

He has probably been Sabres best Dman so far (perhaps mainly because Dahlin was crap the first 2 games). In the offensive zone he has been great, both on PP2 and at 5v5. He still has his moments in the defensive zone (and especially when trying to get out of the defensive zone) but I think the other defensemen have been worse.
(I think Dahlin was better in the 3rd game, especially offensively, but not because Risto declined, but because Dahlin found his game again).
...a decision to be made? Go overseas?I know he has a young daughter and i hope this has nothing to do with her or his son. It’s a dad’s worst nightmare. That said, RKs statement about letting Linus sleep on it sounds like it may involve Linus’ health. A dad doesn’t sleep on any issues relating to his kid. A medical diagnosis, however....

Dahlin was real rough those first 2 games, so it's not like there was a heated competition for best on the blue line there. Looked like himself again (a goddamn stud) last night, though. If Risto and Dahlin both keep playing like they did yesterday, we'll be in good shape.
Possibly, but if it were me and the news was as horrible as they say, then i'd already be on a plane headed home. like chain said, i hope whatever it is works out in the best possible way for him....a decision to be made? Go overseas?
No doubt. Our meddling noses should find out sometime today but we all hope the fam and Linus are ok.Possibly, but if it were me and the news was as horrible as they say, then i'd already be on a plane headed home. like chain said, i hope whatever it is works out in the best possible way for him.
Again, the forwards show commitment to being back -- and that's a lot of the new guys as well as some of the holdovers buying in -- makes it so much easier for the defensemen.
I agree Borgen would be perfect with DahlinI liked a lot of Dahlin from the red line into the offensive zone in those games. It was the stuff in his own zone that was frustrating. And personally, I'm not a fan of Montour as his partner - playing on his off-hand side and better as a rush transition starter than a well-positioned, good stick defender who is pass-first to exit the zone... it remains an iffy duo for me. I suppose if they can outscore the opposition while they are out there, great.

I agree it seems to be the perfect fit in every way possiblesomeone’s gonna get hurt on the D, it’ll be interesting to see where they put Borgen. I’ve always wanted to see that pairing too, I’m sure we’ll get a chance at some point if Dahlin stays healthy.
much like the Sabres
1st game - bad but forgivable
2nd game - much improved, but still had hiccups
3rd game - played well and in control
I think the forwards playing a much better 200ft game helped clean up those d-pair changes. Many times the dmen got caught because of forward mistakesOne of the bads in game one were the sloppy d-pairing changes. Most of the GA were scored with mixed pairs out there - they've cleaned that up over the last few and that's something they can keep doing as habit. Same with the forwards - keep the shifts short and the legs pumping.
Still a shitty goalieThe supposedly shitty goalie almost had a shutout.
Ugly: The DoPS, as usual:
