It's also possible this pair could be the 2nd PK unit. If I recall correctly, they started using olo there in Roch. That has some real shorty potential
- jcragcrumple

if olo starts taking PK time what do we still have the lockport twins for?

i can get on board with 25-30.. and depending on how many are goals thats not bad at all for a Rook
- SabresFaninIndiana

Yeah I'm thinking something like 16G 9A or 14G 11A. The shot is just too good for him to be kept under 10 goals.

Gus and Larry will be still be PK1

Sobotka was the 3rd guy and Erod was the 4th last year. Hopefully we've seen the last of Sobotka, so I would think either Vesey or Olofsson would take a spot unless Krueger wants Eichel killing penalties full-time or they test out Reinhart

He did this what? Two times? And one didn't even go in? :D

Still titties

i wonder if he even cracks PP1. if he is on PP2 that will be a rag tag crew that will get about 1 min average ice time per game
- SabresFaninIndiana

1 minute might be a little high when you have a first pp of jack, dahlin, skinner, skunk and...whomever

Flagged and reported.

Erod will get him the puck. I will dig into my advanced stat bag and pull out the fact that he had the 2nd most primary shot assists of any sabres forward last year.

Olofsson will get the puck on his stick. Oh yes he will

If Krueger is a student of the game, I would hope he want his best players on the ice as much as possible.

Miller for fifth spot?

Olofsson + Erod on the PK could be money

That whomever could be Oloffson.

He seemed to have decent ability with PP1 last year.

Miller for fifth spot?
- matty12345

good point...depends how they want it set up...

in a 1-3-1 I wouldn't mind seeing oloffson on the right half-wall opposite jack with skinner in the middle, skunk net-front and dahlin at the point

in more of a 2-3 deal, yeah, miller at the point with that booming shot might work out rather nicely

I quit paying attention to this lineup when he went all Housley style eggs in one basket with Skinner, Eichel and Reinhart on the top line.

fair criticism...however, if you dig a little deeper, a lot of this revolves around a quick profile of the players heading into the new season

The best thing about this series: running out of room for Sobotka

Sheary, larry, gus and okposo

when tage gets put in as RW3 all we are left with is a 4th line of
larry gus okposo and sherry as the left over.

CJ, Asplund, Ruotsalainen, Tage and Sobotka should be duking it out for the extra spot

Master of suspense

- jcragcrumple

i can't see CJ being a part of that but maybe.. i forgot about Asplund and rout
