I like how Sal and Rachel are playing off each other. It's cool they're letting her bring her insight from being a player.

I really liked the new Kovy. Liked all the new guys really. I think Cotter is going to be a great fit for this team.
I really like how they used the boards and the stick checking in the middle of the ice was terrific. They are only getting settled into the new system as well. Once it comes together and the team gels, we should be playing solid hockey.

My only slight concern from the game is that the top line looked like dogshit in the D-zone. Jack still making irresponsible plays like he's still 18 and Meier has yet to look competent in his own end since he's gotten here. They're gonna have to learn to fix that if they want to be champions.

i hope i get our call team tomorrow.
I think he works better with Dougie than Pesce for example. I think Dougie would benefit from being paired with Silayev more than any other RD on the club. Which is kind of funny since you may very well be right about needing to move him.

The first 10 games of the season, all I want are wins. New system, new guys, etc. will all take time to gel and come together. I won't start getting nitpicky for a few weeks.
We scored 3 goals against a goalie and our goalie was very good. All I needed from today.

Swap Timo with Palat, Noesen, or Mercer. He doesn’t have the puck nearly enough when he’s with our two most skilled players.
Jagr showing up unexpectedly at the end to give Kovacevic a nondescript gift bag was a nice cherry on top.

Why wouldn’t it?
Dillon-Kovy doesn’t seem like a good idea.
Casey & Nemec are both righties, with Casey is a rookie and Nemec has been playing like he should be on 3rd pair right now.
I’m not sweating the pairings until we get Pesce and Luke back.

Going Up?
In the Galapagos for vacation and missed this one. First opener I’ve missed in 14 years. Glad to get a W and see the Cap doing his thing.
Why would it? I still don't get what you guys are saying. There's no reason a returning Luke has to have any impact at all on a Dillon-Dougie pair. If they don't see the issue I do with Dillon-Dougie and like the pair then Luke with say Pesce and Siegs with Nemec/Casey is an option. Or Siegs with Pesce and Luke with Nemec if he turns it around or Kovacevic

Watching back the highlights and WOW did I get deja vu watching the Nico goal, all of the Sabres skaters are standing around puck watching and not doing anything while the goalie ties himself in a knot. So glad we don't have to deal with that anymore.

The discussion has turned to how an 18 year old signed in the KHL until 25/26 would be a perfect partner for one of our current Devils, I feel like was discussing the comparatively short term.
There’s been a plenty of successful teams that make due with some hilariously patchwork defense at times.

I love what Keefe just mentioned about Nico's goal coming off the benefit of the line change and handing off the work of that line with Lazar coming off to Nico getting the reward. Also noting he felt Nico's line won virtually every shift they were out for.
Keefe is such a breath of fresh air to listen to already.
LMAO he just called Kovacevic "Kovechkin".
