Devon Levi needs to be recalled
Sabres 3 – Penguins 5 (en) Buffalo’s “starting” goaltender Ukko Pekka Luukkonen played the first period and reinjured his groin, swiss cheese Georgiev came in relief and posted a .769 save percentage by allowing three goals on just 14 SOG from a preseason Pittsburgh team.
No one but Ruff sees (G) Georgiev as a needed netminder, I can only hope that Buffalo’s heir apparent for backstopping the Sabres (G) Devon Levi will be called up from Rochester sooner than later or we can watch another playoff-less season unfold.
I am endeavoring to be patient with Ruff and his influence with GM Adams on who should be Buffalo’s starting and backup goaltenders and who should actually be playing in net down in Rochester, but it is wearing thin.
One more preseason game as the boys travel south to play the Penguins tomorrow night in Pittsburgh.
