Buffalo Sabres News & Rumors: Levi, Johnson, Thompson & Dahlin
October 20, 2023 by The Old Prof
On Thursday night, except for rookie goalie Devon Levi, the Buffalo Sabres probably got what they deserved. They were sloppy at home against the Calgary Flames and it cost them a win. The final score was 4-3 for the Flames. In this edition of Sabres News & Rumors, I’ll take a look at the player news from the game with a particular focus on Levi. He was, by far, the team’s best player.
Oilers News & Rumors: Holloway, Skinner, Kane, Kessel, More
October 20, 2023 by Jim Parsons
In an Edmonton Oilers news and rumors update, what’s going on with some of the forwards on this roster who are being counted on to produce results? Namely, Connor Brown and Evander Kane have struggled in the early going with no goals. Meanwhile, are the losses in Vancouver and Philadelphia on Jack Campbell? And, even if they aren’t, is it time to go back to Stuart Skinner? Dylan Holloway seems to have some jump in his step and it might be time to promote him. And, are the Oilers out of the running on a few free agents that could potentially help this team?

If Thursday night’s game between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Florida Panthers was about revenge, it fell far short of what the Maple Leafs hoped would happen. Given that the two teams were meeting for the first time since the Panthers ended the Maple Leafs’ 2023 Playoff run in the second round, it was a bit of a dud. In this edition of Maple Leafs News & Rumors, I’ll take a look at some of the news emerging from the game from the perspective of the players.
