I don't particularly either, but it is the National Championship game, so I will want to watch. The problem is that, unlike the NFL, they don't have any interest in moving the games along. There is no reason a game with an 8pm kickoff should finish after midnight. Yet that's what we get every year.

Sure there is…. advertising revenue

And that's why kickoff for the Super Bowl is just after 6pm, not 8pm. And yes, I know it's on a Sunday.

Being on Sunday is the big difference

Advertisers don’t pay as much when the west coast is still in the middle of the workday on Mondays

It’s just basic economics really

They've been spreading callups around. I doubt they have any intention of keeping him up.

Krebs seems a step ahead of quinn in the pecking order.

Quinn needs to play like upl, force them to keep you in buffalo

Nope should have taken rossi.

Rossi runs and stops the run.

Quinn just scores points.

Is he, or did he only get called up first because Quinn was still out?

Krebs can't slide and he played very well. I think he might be up for good. He's really the UPL comparable.

Quinn would really have to be exceptional to burn a year off his contract, when they don't need to. He's fighting against the CBA.

I'm just guessing. I feel like krebs has the better contract in regards to how many games he can play up in buffalo without the rookie year kicking in?

Is krebs a bit older too?

Krebs is a little older and was drafted a year earlier. Quinn is old for his draft class, so it's not really a big difference in age. Krebs already slid twice. Quinn can slide again this year, so there's a big difference in contract status.

Nice catch Lunaion, be smart to let it slide.

Seems like the smart play for Quinn and JJ. Also probably best for them long term (except their bank accounts).

👍

Did Samuelsson use up his 1st year eligibility last season? He played around a dozen games?

He feels like the next "keeper upper"

Well especially if we don't plan on winning for another year or so.

I don't see how they keep this team from the 8th-12th pick range next season. Just don't see a bottom 5 team like this season.

I don't believe we will be that low, if they went out and just added a top RD next year and a solid 1A-B goalie. Fix the defense and this team is better

Especially if other teams really tank for Bedard ?

With UPL and Levi's play this year, aren't you expecting them to just go for a good backup for 1-2 years? Cater Hutton 2.0.
