Anyone watching Buffalo preseason? Just trying to get a read on potential starting goalie now that training camp is underway.
anyone know anything that may lean the goalie battle a certain way ?

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
Its pretty early but from what i have read UPL didn't look so great and Comrie looked "better". So maybe they roll with Comrie and Levi? Or maybe next game UPL looks great?

Still lots of time for the goalie situation to play out, just as far as pre-season goes. Comrie has had two solid appearances. UPL has one and got dusted up. Levi was solid in his one appearance. Should know more as we get closer to those last two pre-season games which are more reflective of an actual lineup.

As an aside, sounds like Zach Benson is making a STRONG case to make the team to start the year. Injuries to Quinn and Savoie may be leaving the door open here too.
I would be really surprised to see Levi on the NHL roster to start the season. UPL and Comrie will split the starts and they’ll go with the hot hand as things go.

Ok.
In the last 20 years there have been 4 goalies to start more than 40 games in their age 21 season. Carter Hart, Steve Mason, Marc-Andre Fleury, and Carey Price. The only one with a winning record or stats that were anywhere near decent was Hart. Levi needs the reps and the confidence. He’s waiver exempt. And NHL teams aren’t run by fanboys. To send Comrie or UPL down or carry 3 goalies doesn’t make sense. There are no guarantees, but I find it highly highly unlikely Levi starts the season on the NHL roster. Counting on it for fantasy purposes is just not a good idea.

Maybe not so strangely, all 4 of them played in their age 20 season. One was an all-rookie team guy, and another won the Calder at 20.
