Buffalo Sabres Player of the Week ending 1/18 – Tage Thompson is straight TNT

This is a new feature we’re going to be trying out here on Die By The Blade, so please be patient with us as we work things out. The article needed to be up earlier on Sunday, but I needed a full 24 hours and then some to get over what transpired in Colorado last night, IYKYK. This is going to be a two-fer this week, and first up is the somewhat-maligned Rasmus Dahlin.

Pleasantly Familiar – Sabres get big regulation win in Montreal

Score: Sabres 4 | MTL 2 Shots: BUF 17 | MTL 34 Buffalo Sabres Goals: Montreal Canadians Goals: Final Thoughts This game was eerily similar to what we witnessed on Tuesday. Buffalo jumped out to a multiple goal lead, saw their lead dwindle to one goal, and ultimately iced the game with a Payton Krebs empty net goal. If the game script works, why not try it…

Buffalo Sabres Player of the Week 2/1 – Our Captain Rasmus Dahlin

It’s been a challenging week for the Buffalo Sabres. They have continued to maintain their high level of play, set some records playing at a historically elite level in the League (fifth-best record all time for a 24-game span), saw Lady Luck sashay their way, did a little dance together, and then she backed elusively out of reach last night. With a nod to the upcoming Winter Olympics…
