Sabres Impending Decision on Benson Looms Large Zach Benson is about to reach his ninth game and the Sabres will need to decide if he's going to remain in the NHL this season.

Zach Benson deserves to be a Sabre. We’re two appearances away from burning a year off his ELC.

There are extenuating factors that will weigh into the #Sabres decision as to whether he stays with the big club, or returns to the WHL.

Peterka's Breakout Campaign Off to an Excellent Start JJ Peterka is off to a great start with the Buffalo Sabres this season in what could be a breakout campaign for him.

JJ Peterka’s bid for a breakout campaign is off to a fantastic start.

For my latest at @ExpectedBuffalo, I took a look at what he’s continued to do well, and where he’s shown significant growth early in the season. #Sabres

It’s venturing on depressing at this point. I’m already pretty sure that I’ll look back on all this one day and wish I had invested the effort into something more meaningful.

If they don’t find a way to correct course this year, I’m gonna really struggle justifying the amount of time and effort I put into following them.

From Fringe to Finance | Q&A With Tyson Strachan We caught up with former NHL defenseman Tyson Strachan to discuss his career and life after pro hockey.

Tyson Strachan’s role with @HockeyWealth caught my eye last year.

I was thrilled when he agreed to chat with me about that venture, as well as a few stories from his NHL career, and his experience as a member of the #Sabres’ infamous β€œTank Team”.

Under-The-Radar Predictions for the Sabres' 2023-24 Season Bold prediction time for the Buffalo Sabres 2023-24 season. Goalies, goals, Krebby Patties, and more for this year.

Not sure I’ve ever written a vibe style piece like this, but since we’ve dissected the life out of every topic leading up to today… Let’s have a little fun.

Convert to Comrienism, Eat a few Krebby Patties, and most importantly, eat the receipt. #Sabres

Few things in this world are more liberating than looking a man dead in his eyes and telling him that his word is garbage, please send it in writing…

Jordan Greenway has been used one way for most of his career. With the Wild, he was deployed in an uncommonly consistent manner.

If Don Granato can turn his career around, Greenway will become an incredible case study in coaching/tactical impact. #Sabres

Roster prognosticators are struggling to find a role for Peyton Krebs in the #Sabres Top-9.

Looking deeper at his development, perhaps a checking line role is actually what’s best for both the team and player.
