Arrival: The Tage Thompson story | NHL on ESPN 

Tage is the most electrifying player I have ever watched in a Sabres jersey. He is so much fun to watch.

Became a sabres fan 12 years ago when they lost to Philly in the playoffs. The only playoff game I’ve ever seen. Been here since the start of the bad Sabres. Tage brought a whole new excitement to this team that can’t compare to anyone else in the NHL. We are so blessed to watch him play

Fantastic video. We all deal with a lot of challenges, it's so nice to see someone who deserves it make it through some tough ones. Tage against the machine!

I'm a hardcore Av's fan but Buffalo has been my east coast team for a while. Love Tage and I'm excited to see where they're headed.

Nice job ESPN, keep showcasing these incredible athletes.

As a Bruins fan I like very few opposition players. Thompson is one.

Happy to see this man achieve what he has. Glad his family is healthy! New Tage fan here.

As a Blues fan I’m happy to see that Tage has found his place in the NHL and I’m happy for Buffalo as well that they’re now a team on the rise with a young core led by Tage. Who knows maybe the O’ Reilly Thompson trade could end up being pretty even if Buffalo wins a cup with Tage leading the way. I’m glad to see that Tage used all of that hate he got from the trade news as motivation to prove everybody wrong that he’s the real centerpiece of that trade.

Great video! Happy for him and his family and proud to have him as a Sabre!

Great players always have great stories.

Awesome segment

That trade is looking pretty good for the Sabres now. O’reilly wanted out. Won a cup for the blues And the Sabres got a future Superstar talent. Win win for both sides

What a story and such a nice guy I liked him the minute I found out who his father was who played for the Kings and now I'm a fan also! Enjoy the ride and Keep dominating Tage you've earned it!!!

more short docs like this pleaseee. great stuff

How can you not love Tage Thompson

Amazing video . Kids a certified superstar . So happy for him

Buffalo loves Tage as much as any player we've had, because he earned it the hard way.

Awesome story. Thank you for sharing.

great video. Tage is a lucky man. Beautiful family and his hockey career is looking great.Such a good person on top of it all.

These videos are always so well made

Great player, hope the team overall improves for the 23-24 season

Perfect player for the perfect city he plays in he's our own let's go buffalo sabres!!!

Big Habs fan here. T&T is no doubt one of my favourite players in the league!

Love him even more knowing hes from bridgeport.

The list of places is sad as hell, im glad he managed it very well

Tage.

Last season was incredible. The points aren’t there this year though. Superstars don’t take their foot off the gas

that was excellent! very well done

Awesome video. I would love to see more!

Gonna be a great one

didn't know he lived in Alberta! pretty coool

Tage reminds me so much of Tim Connolly. Obviously not in physic but in pick skill and hockey IQ

This makes me so angry at Ralph Krueger, Tage (and the rest) deserved better than him

Pretty crazy story already. He is must watch hockey on the Sabres. Possibly thier biggest star sence Miller or Hasek.

great great job ESPN

American Machine Never Break

@Graviteh hitting the big time! 🤣

Guy has almost as good hands as Tim Connolly and is taller and stronger. Crazy how he can move the way he does at his size.

I wanna know the name of the music used here 1:19

Big DAWG. My favorite DAWG

A good story to understand so many people these health issues!! Get well! I'VE GOT AND NO ONE CARES HERE!!!! Maybe, Phillip could help if he wants. 😡

He seems like a match up nightmare

Ralph Kruger needs to answer for his crimes

I’m going to name my kid Slapshot McGoo

Enjoy those years when you have a tiny cute baby - because you never get those back

Watching the nhl on ESPN is mind numbingly awful.

Tage Thompson towers over your poverty franchise

Nice piece on him, but Thompson had "arrived" long before the Columbus game. What you talking about ESPN?

Yikes the female narrator makers it unwatchable. Sorry not sorry.

I think he'll nip 50 this year. Guy is a beauty.

Thanks, Tage! For being a piece of the biggest trade in St. Louis Blues history.

I knew when we traded him if would back fire. Thankfully we got a cup outta it but still. Goodluck tage

Tage

Finally got a goal today. Idk what their issues have been so far but they need to kick it into overdrive. Lot of hockey left to get it done though so not worried lol especially when you got this guy as your top line center. 🤙🏼💯

Tage.
