Mich ties it at 1

Anyone else have trouble hearing the PBP? The sounds on the ice are louder than the voices, I can barely hear them

 

[joshjull]

Portillo had no chance on that one.

I does sound like the balance between PBP and on ice sound is out of whack

 

[joshjull]

Portillo is keeping them in this game right now. Terrible turnovers and defensive plays by Michigan.

 

[sabres4ever]

YEAH BABY! TIED!

 

[joshjull]

Michigan with a great shot block leading to a rush the other way and the tying goal

Power is a bust?

 

[joshjull]

My groin hurts watching Portillo doing the splits there.

 

[joshjull]

 

[joshjull]

Wow. Another call against Michigan

 

[sabres4ever]

I see these refs are as bad as the ones in the NHL

 

[Fjordy]

Refs...

 

[Ace]

I believe, very soon, the Buffalo Sabres will be the envy of the NHL with their young defensive core.

Think about that for a minute,

Tbf I envied them as soon as they finally moved Risto

I had this thought in 2013. Myers, Ristolainen, Zadorov, and McCabe was going to be the greatest things ever.

Kaplan announced Power could be in the lineup as soon as Tuesday against Toronto.

In an exclusive interview with Jack Eichel?

Are we going to waste a year on his ELC for 9 games this season? That can't be good right?

 

[zenthusiast]

You do it as a courtesy to the player in this scenario

 

[Matt Ress]

Welp he had his chance.
Thanks for nothing Kevin with a Y

Doesn't even have to be 9 and the comment that it is a courtesy to the player was already made. Get him signed, get him into their vibe-atorium of a dressing room and offer a taste of the bigs. It will get him (and the team) a chance to see what he needs to work on for the summer.

I'm wondering if he goes to the Worlds again if asked?

None of them have Dahlin or Power's pedigree.

 

[dotcommunism]

Noting for future reference that despite the fact that he is 19 years old, Power will not be eligible to have his ELC slide. Assuming that he signs to finish out the season, he'll burn the first year of his three year ELC, regardless of how many games he plays.
