Good coverage guys, I'm an old school Sabres fan, it's nice to hear young guys paying attention to the details and giving these guys some credit. You're absolutely right about Benson and Doan being X factors. When Benson was out, they struggled a bit, he's a huge role player. Alex Lyon has been a diamond. I guarantee you Lindy is going to keep him at #1 after UPL gets back. If Alex starts slipping, it's UPL time. Lindy has experience with riding 2 hot goalies, during the Miller/Biron days. I'm seeing an echo of those years with this team, but of course the boys are putting their personal flavors into old school Sabres hockey. They have found their groove, boys.
BELIEVE BUFFALO!!!!
No mention of Zucker? He has played very well from what I can see.
#6 is our spark plug he missed first 2 games
As a Sabres fan i appreciate the recognition but lets calm it down, its 5 games into the season and we are 2-3 and are on a 2 game win streak. We beat Ottowa with their backup goalie and while the Panthers are still the Panthers. Theyre missing their 2 of their top 5 fowards. Give it 10 games before we start saying "things are rolling" or "things are turning around for Buffalo" they do this every year and then dont win a single game in the month of November or December.
Zack Benson is "so fast"?
Lyon should stay in and send UPL to AHL. Why change when Lyon is dominating
Well they play those Detroit Boyz this Wednesday, and they're not playing!!, like all of their other 3 teams, they seem to play with that gritty chip on their shoulders and apparently respond to being "hated on".. idk why all Detroit teams play really well and love to prove haters wrong but they get off on it..
And they now have three rookies in their lineup and now NINE ??! of Steve Yzerman's draft picks in their lineup.. and they have a lot more high-end prospects that are looking to crack the roster within this year..
The match of this Wednesday is going to be pretty fun..
Both of these teams are on the rise it seems!😊
O.M.G. Lay off the Red Bull, son. Let’s talk in April.
We finally have a goalie! Lyon is playing so great!
Can't wait to see the Detroit/Sabres game this week. Should be fun to watch and a good early season test for both teams.
When you have a goalie that even when they lose has the stats of a top 4 goalie in the league honestly all you need to do is to start scoring again.
If Lyon keeps this up i believe it will be a fun season.
GM Kevyn Adams gets too much irrational hate. He’s playing his cards so that the Sabres can eventually actually be a competitive playoff team that can win. Everyone wants to see shortcuts that gets the team into the playoffs but he sees the bigger picture.
Feeling the love!! Go Sabres!!!
The net is Alex Lyon’s net to lose! UPL is no longer the starter.
2 wins do not a "major shift" make. Call me when they're above 0.500.
Doan goes to the rough areas – mucks in the corners and goes to the front of the net. Its not rocket science. More Sabres need to do this.
