[NHL Watcher] Friedman on 32TP says before signing with the Sabres, Devon Levi wanted to make sure they believed in him and if he played well there was a path for him to get there faster than perhaps a lot other prospects would get.

  1. I feel the last time 32TP spoke about Levi and our goaltending situation they were flat out wrong

  2. Haven’t paid any attention to EF since he became the unofficial spokesman for Eichel’s camp.

  3. EF is nothing more the NHLs version of Tucker Carlson as this point. He used to be decent, but at this point I’d trust Steve Dangle saying things are gonna happen with the Sabres more than I’d trust EF.

  4. People in here just straight attack sources if they don’t say something they like, Friedman is probably the most trustworthy source in hockey, they literally said Johnson was expected to sign and no one sis d that was bullshit

  5. Maybe Levi stays up in Buffalo next year? Still a lot of time and games to be played to determine that, but it’s the first time I’ve felt he might actually stay up in the bigs right away..

  6. This isn’t really a ridiculous thing, the wording makes it sound bad. Adams’ method has been “if a young guy earns it, we let them run with it”. Levi is the 5th rookie to join the roster this year.

  7. everybody always brings up how goalies typically take longer to develop, but let’s not act like there haven’t been guys who came in at Levi’s age or younger and locked down a starting role on a team

  8. Let’s say Levi wins us four games throughout the rest of the year with something like a .930 save percentage – just insane numbers. Do we start him in the show next year?

  9. “Player weeks away from free agency wanted to make sure he had a chance to play before he signed”

    *Alternative headline*

    I don’t believe these guys have “sources” anymore. They just pay more attention then the average fan and read the tea leaves. They might get a quote after the fact, but most of it is rubbish that anyone on these forums could come up with if it was your full time job

  10. It has been one game. I hope Levi is the next Miller but I wouldn’t even blank if he got bombed tomorrow night. Hopefully, he has another strong outing.
