All he needed was to be able to get out of bed and walk the day after a game.

You’re not going to bench Dahlin for coughing up a puck. And you can’t cough it up from the bench. As much as he plays, he’s going to commit his share.

He’s tied with Jack Hughes (6-3-9 in 7GP). Then it’s Necas, Eichel, Pastrnak, Lindell, Rielly, Werenski, Rinzel, Sergachev to round out the top-10.

Dahlin is tied for the league lead in turnovers. Sabres goalies have a .833 SV% with him on the ice. That could be any of causation, correlation, or coincidence. I can’t prove it in any direction.

He’s also played more total ice time than everyone else in the top-22 league wide in that category.

They need more from the top of the payroll. Their leading scorers are Doan, Quinn, Benson & Zucker; before you get to Dahlin, McLeod, and; with one goal apiece; Thompson & Tuch.

Luukkonen comes back, do they try to sneak Ellis through waivers?

Kesselring comes back, Bryson vs. Metsa (RH) vs. RJohnson for the #7 D job.

Out of Geertsen-Ostlund-Kozak- Krebs(?), who survives the return of Norris-Greenway-Danforth?

They’re carrying 13F-7D-3G on their 23-man right now.

The Sabres are going to have some profoundly interesting roster decisions to make if/when everyone is back in the lineup.

Squeezing the toothpaste back down the tube, into more manageable matchups will make them better, but are they going to insist on keeping Geertsen and/or three goalies?

It has come to my attention that many people who used to live in Buffalo have come to Charlotte. And in the particular instance of the Bills, a few Charlotteans have gone there. That makes for interesting game-planning.

More from the coordinators on Thursday.

Four takeaways from coordinators heading into Bills game, including all the old friends

The Panthers and Bills have a lot in common, including a lot of people. Plus more on multiple running backs, and whether long snapper JJ Jansen will ever get the attention he deserves

While Colten Ellis was putting on a show in his NHL debut (27/29, .931), Luukkonen was stopping 21/23 (.913) for the Amerks, beating Syracuse 4-2.

Brian Cummings @briancummings.bsky.social · 18h

Sabres improve to 3-4, host Toronto Friday.

Ellis 27 saves to win NHL debut
Quinn 1-2-3
Timmins & McLeod two assists each
Zucker didn’t come out for the 3rd period.

Brian Cummings @briancummings.bsky.social · 18h

Defending a 6-on-5 is a bit simpler with a two-goal lead.

Brian Cummings @briancummings.bsky.social · 19h

Sabres kill it off. Red Wings held to one shot on their two PP chances.

Brian Cummings @briancummings.bsky.social · 19h

Kulich to the box with 7:11 left. Red Wings’ 2nd PP chance.

Sabres up 4-2, in front of a guy making his NHL debut.

Brian Cummings @briancummings.bsky.social · 19h

TV timeout with 8:37 left. Sabres up 4-2.

GOAL. Doan’s 3rd. Sabres up 4-2.

PPG by Quinn to take the lead, big save by Ellis on DeBrincat, goal by Doan.

Brian Cummings @briancummings.bsky.social · 19h

There’s a big save right after taking the lead.

Brian Cummings @briancummings.bsky.social · 19h

GOT ‘EM.
Quinton the PP, Sabres lead 3-2, 15:45 to go.

Brian Cummings @briancummings.bsky.social · 19h

Sabres 4th PP chance 2:22 in.

How many do they need?

Brian Cummings @briancummings.bsky.social · 19h

Could Tuch have gotten ONE of those ON NET?!

Brian Cummings @briancummings.bsky.social · 19h

Outplaying them is great.

Out-scoring them counts.
