My boy

Has a team won the cup with three American centers as their top three?

At this point, I will take “ has a team made the playoffs with three American Centers”.

Surround them with a bunch of Canadians and we might be alright. I do know a team with a generational Swedish d-man has won a cup before so we have that to fall back on.

Would of liked Nylander to at least play today but hey why not. Let’s see what the kids got. I hope he can prove me wrong and turn out to be a good hockey player. I’ll happily fall on the sword.!

Don’t score too much nylander we need a high pick 😞

They wouldn’t have given up a 1st round pick. Just move down.

yeah well in fairness we also traded for brown by the NFL network, so take it with a grain of salt. Whatever, Brown was all about the money, glad we didn't give it to him.

LOL.... the guy has 12 goals in the AHL.... don't think we need to worry about him changing the fortunes of the sabres

I agree. Buffalo has way too many hole to fill on offense, plus they are going to have to pay Tre'davious White soon.

Why recall him now? What’s the point?

No idea but olofsson should have gotten recalled first... the guy has 23 goals

only thing I can think of, it's his last chance to make an impression on Botts.

Reward him for his recent 4 game stretch. Get a look at him in NHL games before he goes down for the playoff stretch. See what he has. I hope this is the start of something for him. Nylander actually panning out would be one less top 6 FWD role we have to fill going forward here.

There is still time for him to get a look as well. We have 14 games left.

Why screw up what Rochester has? The Sabres are a dumpster fire, don’t subject Rochester guys to that environment.

he won't be here long enough for that... Botts said he was going to give some of the kids a chance at the end of the year.

Rochester is sitting pretty in a playoff spot. NHL games could be good for the kids morale. Olofsson I’m sure will be next. Give him a stretch of 5 games and send him back down.

yeah and I fully expect him to get recalled, just curious about the order.

now what's going to be really curious, do they actually get a chance to play??? or will they put him on the fourth line.

Nylander will 100% play with Sobotka and Girgensons for 3 games, have no points and everyone will say he sucks.

If Eichel gets a one game suspension and our first line on tuesday isn’t Skinner-Mittelstadt-Reinhart then Housley should get fired before the game.

Chance to prove to him (and his father) he has no business in this franchise and should just go quietly.

This is another cautionary tale about the strategy of tanking for high picks - you can get a kid who ultimately adds nothing, and do real damage to your existing young NHL talent in the meantime.

How come when I told you that’s what would happen with Olofsson you acted like I was crazy?
