Yea sounds like a good time. Do they have any big rivalries with any teams? I would love to catch a nice rivalry game as my first experience there.

The Marlies are our biggest rival currently. Those games are an absolute war. Syracuse is always a good game as well.

If we can get some of these kids to hit their potential, I think it will be closer.

where do you live?
- Michael Pachla

I live right in buffalo, but I'd love to see them at home in Rochester. Yea I figured the Marlies would be a good one just wanted to make sure from people that follow the A more than me. Too bad i cant see Reinhardt up there this year, that'd be a team to see!

Boosie, you legitimately might be the best upgrade the Sabres made this year

nice read (reed,reid)


sign one more vet and let all the kids not named Pysyk to play in Rochester

Stroman has allowed no hits through 5 and struck out 6

this.

I would look at Brookbank or Diaz. I haven't heard if anyone has picked them up.

Haha , organizing an Amerks (or Sabres) game with a bunch of HB'ers would be pretty fun. I would feel a little out of place with all the regulars though, I'm a grade A lurker but don't post much.

I heard they don't bite. I could be wrong.

Amerks won the season series 5-4 this year (5-3-1 technically). Much better then seasons past of course.

Sanchez-Stroman could be lethal for this team.


However if you can make a deal for a guy like David Price then you do it and don't think twice.

half game behind Mariners in the Wild Card and key players coming back from injury soon.

An easy option in the future to get people together would be that new 716 bar when it opens up in the new Harbor Center. Much easier and cheaper than trying to get a bunch seats in the same area. + a 39 foot projector help too.

Excellent read. I agree 100%, can't put kids in over their heads and expect them to become superstars which is exactly why if Nolan and Murray aren't positive that Ristolainen is NHL ready then send him back down and let him grow. The best thing about him is that we could call him up if we needed/wanted to unlike if he was in the CHL.

I'll throw my Rochester lineup back up here just to show how many good names we have on that roster t be excited about. Obviously some of them might be in the NHL at some point this year and some might even start in the big leagues but this is how I see that team:

W. Carrier - M. Grigorenko - J. Armia
D. Catenacci - P. Varone - Z Dalpe
J. Samuels-Thomas - J. Larsson - N. DesLauriers
M. Ellis - T. Schaller - J. Kea
K. Sundher - C. Jacobs


R. Ristolainen - J. McCabe
T. Strachan - J. Gauthier-Leduc
D. Bagnall - B. Austin


N. Lieuwen
A. Makarov
M. Hackett

Haven't the Marlies bounced them from the playoffs a few times the last few years?

From the last:

Three guys I'd target, not from the Avs in no particular order and with an eye on the future as well as now, are:


Couture

Nyquist

Toffoli
