Michael Pachla: Hodgson scores; Sabres win; Girgensons/Ennis hurt; eyes on the prize

Maybe Cody is finally trying to increase his trade value?

was thinking last night that double-digit goals should be his goal this season...he's been playing better as of late...relatively speaking, of course

I just think Cody is really embracing the tank this year.

Coho gets a goal in the first period and is rewarded with 10 minutes of ice time


Z gets benched another game


36 year old Gionta gets 21 minutes of ice time


Nolan for the Jack Adams

It sure looks like it.

I think we all know that Nolan and the players are trying every night, although some certainly try harder than others.

What I am wondering, would TM go so far as to talk to the team doctors and keep players out longer than they normally would?

Obviously injuries happen, but we have seen over the years differences of opinions as to when players could return.

Do you tell players to shut it down for the rest of the season this year when you wouldn't in a year they were fighting for a playoff spot or a higher seed in the playoffs?

if MFE gets injury he fights through it.. if Girgs gets injured he makes sure it is good 100% before he comes back.. i hope this helps

- IndianaSabresFan

the use of the word "hustle" is relative to the player...for hodgson, he was hustling

is hodgson in the running for the Leino Award?

He also was the 5th defensemen drafted in his class. There is a reason with all his raw skill guys like Morrissey, Pulock and Morin were picked before him
- sbroads24

Morin was considered a huge reach and Zadorov is the first one to receiving NHL minutes. Despite the fact he would probably be in juniors if not for the contract thing, he's still ahead of the rest of them.
