love the optimism

I expect jack jr gets the rw slot


what about the D

motour on the left?

dahlin-joker
montour-risto
mccabe-miller?

I still dont see a spot for borgen

- homiedclown


I think pekar has an inside line at 3rd / non log duty .
Asplund too

I think your spot on with the defense. Maybe move montour for salary reasons? (Lean)

Borgen should get a look. Maybe a little more toughness?

If we keep risto and dahlin - they can play 1/2 the game. Fill in some scrubs for the other 30 minutes.

I'm such a homer at times, I like this team for the most part.

Goaltending is a major issue. Need a new face other than hutton .

0 people in the history of people think he’s a Selke candidate. 0

I just have to laugh, and this isn’t singling you out, but a certain anti-numbers group wants to get tougher to play against, yet want to have our toughest forward to play against leave? Seems odd to me

Just wait until Curtis AHL tweener Lazar gets those shifts against Matthews and Bergeron when teams get the last change and watch those goals start pouring in by the truck load

I'd like to see who else they may get. I am getting sick of some of the same players who have lost and lost..........

But, we did need bottom 6 players. 2 mil is not a lot for 3 years and he is grinder. Good point by:

Re: Zemgus — his role is clear, he does it well, he likes Buffalo, and he won’t earn a ton. It’s fine.

You mean the decade that Girgensons has been here for almost the entirety of?
- sbroads24



When girgensons is your "toughest" or "hardest to play against " forward, that's the problem.

Need man for man tough players,

Outside from the obvious stars.
(Skins and eichel)
Who I find plenty tough.

Kahun sam casey vesey - underwhelming

He's not the problem. Especially for a reasonable similar contract

L O G forever

Reunited and it feels so good.

I think pekar gets a legit shot.

Fan favorite in the making.

When's the last "pest" we've had?

Lazarry is kinda smiley and instigating

Ryan Murray is a fine d-man at that contract.

Only costed a 5th ?

Adams must be enjoying his b-day or on an hour long FaceTime with Zemgus

Vogl:

The Sabres have won 200 of their 561 games since Girgensons arrived.

I'm not saying it's his fault. I'm not saying "he's gotten used to losing." He's a competitor, unlike many they've had.

I'm just saying the same faces year after year haven't got it done, have they?

What are the odds girgs flat out gives up and doesnt give %100 effort in a game? IE - Samson giving up.

I agree with every move kagm has made so far.

You guys whine and cry about everything. This team has been so incredibly soft for the past decade.

Probably didnt watch the nhl playoffs right?

High end skill and toughness.

No room for kahun

- Boss34


No room for Girgensons either then, unless you really believe he has high end skill (he doesn't).

Watching the Nashville draft video, it looks like Adams tried to trade #8 for #11 and #37. Rumor is adams wanted Sanderson and when he got drafted by ottawa at #5 he figured at #11 he’d still probably get Quinn (or maybe Rossi or Perdetti). If those 3 went 8, 9, 10 he’d still get lundell.

Would have been a great trade but Nashville wasn’t interested because they didn’t think they needed to move up to get the goalie.

Adams would’ve then traded 37 and 38 to get back into the first to get the guy they ended up with at 34. He was trying to anyways.

So the result probably would’ve been the same either way

- SABRES 89


Since last year - no

Sheary
Erod
Bogo
Vesey
Johansson
Scandella
Pilut
Sobatka
Frolik
Simmonds
(Montour)
(Kahun)
(Hutton) - no way they sell these 2 again next season

That's 10 maybe 12 new faces. Maybe more.

Girgs is a safe move
Lazarry is a safe move
Stahl for Johansson is a safe move

Safe and fiscally responsible under covid circumstances

1/2 the roster will turn over
