not sure what a cop contender is, but dahlin and Eichel are the keys as to why I wouldn't

Criticize Jack and Sam for supposedly being drinkers who stay up until the sun comes up on game days and still show up to work, yeah, how dare they. They aren't Jim-Kellying around town or driving into buildings and literally every single player ever does that when they're young and grinding the schedule.

if bogo goes down, could be

scandella-dahlin
guhle-risto
mccabe-pilut


not sure I would like a lineup of 5 lefties on D though

- homiedclown


So many lefties is tough, but I think that's the most talented starting 6 fwiw. Would love to see Guhle and Dahlin, but think that's a year or two away. The speed there could be a handful for the opposition.

More... a “goal scorer” that doesn’t score, we already have one of those.
- gordong


I’m going to disagree ..

when he had the same points as Casey and Blake wheeler

But those aren’t goal scores

There's a bias towards prospects who play in easy leagues and put up big numbers. It's not worth fighting.

You know, its when people don't really know the phrase they're about to use so in an eyebulb popping last stich effort to sound smart they say something that isn't quite right, but is phonetically close. It really gets my gander up.


Some people use to call them "Rickyisms."

Hutton is no where close to Biron.
- Lunaion


I think I’d have taken Marty too
But i just put Hutton down bc i didn’t wanna year anyone freak on me

Not worth arguing over the backup goalie

It depends on what era we are talking about here

If they are playing under today's rules

Mittelstadt over one of the most overrated players in Sabres history...Afinogenov

If they are playing under the 2006 rules I keep Max but Casey over Kotalik and I move the lines around a bit

2006 rules:

Briere Eichel Mittelstadt
Vanek Drury Reinhart
Hecht Roy Afinogenov
Sheary Berglund Stafford

Lydman Tallinder
Dahlin Risto
Soupy Teppo

Miller
Hutton

2018 rules

Briere Eichel Mittelstadt
Hecht Drury Reinhart
Vanek Roy Pomminville
Sheary Berglund Kotalik

defense and goaltenders stay the same

Pommville gets the nod in 2018 with Afinogenov out

- Stripes77


I don’t think I’d mess around too much with lines that were working so well together

Good post though sir


Looking back at the ‘06 team...
Obviously I’d keep Briere & Drury
Then I’d have traded Max + to get a top pair quality guy on defense

And McKee is a guy i wouldn’t have gotten rid of
Probably would’ve kept Dumont too

I know the Cap was a concern,
But we let too many players walk for nothing when we could’ve kept them & traded others
Max, Kotalik & Kalinin come to mind as guys I’d have moved
Wasn’t a big Spacek fan either
