Wonderful night. The Sabres presented me with an autographed Dahlin Blue with the "A" for being the veteran of the game.

Owen friggen Power. Every person in the building thought Power was shooting all the way up to Vic hammering it home. Best play as a Sabre so far for young Power. That was elite.

If that game don't sell tickets people are blind and wounded.

Dalhin had almost 30 minutes and you can tell he can handle it.

I think this was Power's best game

If they grab 5 points in the next 5 games, Adams is going to need to show he's got a bit of a spine. They still need another top 6 forward for the long run. They don't need a high-end one, but Okposo isn't going to last up there all season. Make a trade.

So why was this game on local TV in Pittsburgh, but the TNT national broadcast in Buffalo?

One other thing occurred to me while watching the Pens. Playing them is almost like your 18 year old self playing your father in sports. He used to be way better than he is and he can still be dangerous at times but you see him fading. He might get you every once in a while but that ship is leaving port and it ain't coming back.

I get wanting to maximize what's left of Crosby's game but you can't have a roster that old. They should have done a mini-reboot.

Was a hell of a 3rd period, but Pittsburgh was the better team for 2 periods. Love the never die attitude, and the win but a lot to work on.

Rochester is filled with top 6 forwards. They don't need to make a trade. Let them keep doing what they are doing. The kids are growing.

You're welcome. Special night. One fella came up 5 minutes after i was on the jumbotron and gave me a receipt with about 50 #s on it for the 50/50. So many people said thank you and wished me and my wife well. It was a great night. Pens fans and Sabres fans were all quite nice.

They're playing well right now, but they've also played a number of teams that have been struggling mightily: Calgary, Vancouver and Pittsburgh to name a few. They're going to take some lumps coming up. Don't make the same mistake Botterill made in 2018.

Huge test the next week.

They were definitely better at times, but there is no way this team is going anywhere even if it did ever make the playoffs again.

I think it was Power's best game. He controlled the play in the offensive zone, had great puck control and no bad plays or give aways.

He is just getting better each game.
