Oh yes!
They would certainly have some exciting shifts in the offensive zone for sure.


Thankfully we have the last change, so they could get sheltered offensive zone starts if that line sticks. O'Reilly and Girgensons could take the defensive zone starts if Jack is struggling on the dot.

My predictions for the Sabres this year.....

80 points and ahead of the Leafs, Hurricanes, Devils and Bruins.
Plus they start to regain the trust and respect of their fan base and the rest of the league.

If they do the above, I will be a happy man......

It does say a lot that the most positive prediction is us still missing the playoffs

i think realistically we will miss.. but if everything falls into place we could be in the hunt.. a lot falls on the D and goalie though.

Don't know what to make of them. fancy stats still has them bottom 3 but a lot of unknowns on the roster. Some projections based off last years team can be misleading as well.

No big deals, just a few small things, definitely nothing to really mess up the flow of reading it though. Great recap of everything, I'm quite stoked for the season. Losses or not, this team should be entertaining.

Only 1 (or maybe 2) really counts.

W or L (or OTW).

the fancy stats are used to predict that (and more often than not they do)

this isn't last years team.. how many new players do we have:
Eichel
reinhart
ROR
Kane
McGinn
Legwand
Carlo
Donovan
Franson
McCabe (to an extent)
Pysyk (to an extent)
Lehner

thats half the team.. and several of them could be high end players. i don't think you can take anythign from last years stats and apply it to this season

i am surprised they still play the games and risk injury when fancy stats could just tell them who is going to win
