Except for the whole, you know, 60+ point player.

It's cool that you actually watch the games 36.

Instead of just posting b.s. as a pretender

I don't know Boss, just trying to put things together, glad I don't have to be the one to try and piece together a lineup with the pieces Krueger has. The pieces Botts has drafted aren't ready and the 3 years before him were a mess that derailed this organization for another 6 yrs.

Well yes analytics don’t measure overall talent level but defensively they are both in the upper percentile of the league.

ROR is starting to drift back to his career average actually after his Cinderella season last year. Only 6 even strength goals this year.

7 now.
Does he have to give back his Conn Smythe, or does he get to keep it?

Ror just got his 9th goal of the season.

Kinda surprised this isnt brought up

Seem low

Better question, does he come close to getting one here? Or are we like 3 points better in the standings still treading water?

I am very happy to be here.

I would like to see sam at center.

I really can't understand why they wouldn't sneak a look.

I'm a conspiracy guy:

Maybe they sign him for "eichels right wing $" (which is looking expensive), instead of center $?

If he could be a 65 point 2c, it leaves a spot open on the #1 line, seems like a good spot for a shooter

That's the ? 24 how much better would we be, with the emergence of VO, but does he sign Mojo, it's a very hard to know, he really didn't make us better when he was, do we still have Skinner. A lot of who knows

If we draft well and maximize every dollar of our cap space we’ll have a chance.

Lots of ?, for right now it could benefit the team. The way it really looks is a plan is in place and they are riding with what they have and going for it next year.

Jack could win it even if his team lost in the Finals. He’s that good.

- Buff36

I get that part, punting to next year.

But, why not take a look at sam at 2c?

Does anyone have any idea or thoughts?

Aside from his speed

Welcome Michael... May god have mercy on your sole...

Feelings on Risto?
Lockport yes or no?

Nice first write up...

- Buff36

I’m just unclear as to what “going for it next year” looks like.
Bring in high profile free agent(s)?
Earth shattering trade?
Offer sheet?

Or doing what they’ve been doing: draft some guys, pray for prospect development, and bring in moderately talented new faces?

- Boss34

If they could find a winger that carriers the puck well, I think sam would be fine at center... he is not going to rush from end to end... It not that he slow because
I'd say his speed is okay (Not great not slow) but he seems to not want to have the puck on his stick for a long time... Pair him with a winger that can move... I kinda would like to see the line of Marcus, Sam, skinner

How many guys on this team are slower than Sam? Are there any?

I really don't know why people are still talking about him at C.

Why can't that player be Mojo, he can rag the puck, put Rhino at Center, Skinner at LW and Mojo at RW. Then when VO gets back VO Eichel Okposo. Seems like 2 solid lines. I just don't see how it hurts until you can,find your 2C and another RW. They have pieces to atleast get 1 of those positions in a trade and then fill 1 of them in FA, Cozens is coming, maybe not fully ready next year, but the kid has something about him, you can see it with the way he skates and plays.

unless a moneyball win streak is in their cards, they need to sell, not buy rentals

IMO

Gally is young enough that if he looks good, then he could be re-signed and help moving forward
Especially if we can trade for him “for peanuts”

miller was about his age when he came up

kid is a prospect they didn't rush and got better every year since he came over to usa
- homiedclown

Miller played in 170 games over 3 seasons for Rochester before he was up with the Sabres full time

Johansson has played 37 games over 4 years for Rochester

doesn't fit the blue print for up tempo north south team, as a center


but then again many of his moves hasn't fit that blue print either
- homiedclown

Hmmmmm
Is MoJo that much faster than Sam?
Is Larsson?

That’s kinda weird reasoning when we’ve struggled so much at the 2C spot

those 3 second round picks in 14

woof
