Yeah, I could see this, think Bjork is only still around for now until we see how JJ or Quinn acclimate. If there ready he gone.

Does anyone really care who our 14th F is? Bjork is fine. Roch is thin with NHL-ready F's, os it's not like he's getting in anyone's way.

Well I would think they would try and waive him and put him in Rochester. My hope is that these young kids take the next step and acclimate themselves and players fall into the proper lines and Girgensons is the press box

But why? Who is taking his place, and not playing? Is 8D important to you?

Well if Quinn JJ Mitts Krebs all take spots then Hino and I would think Girgensons take his spot.

Just waive his a$$ already. Old man Clown would have more impact out there

It would be the natural progression of the team though

He's a co captain. he's playing. trust me. He's useful on defense and an overall positive impact. At this point they need him to take faceoffs, so, that should be a thing.

I know Eakin is god awful everywhere else but he was pretty useful for his timely faceoff wins. We need a guy like that.

14th F isn't out there. You want a Bjork/Hayden in that spot.

For reference, the 13th and 14th Sabres forwards in terms of games played last year were Krebs at 48 and Mitts at 40 so the extras will play some

That's the other side of this. This all gets thrown out the window about a week in when they start dealing with injuries. Bjork might be the target of anger all year, but we'll also be complaining about their lack of depth. Roch is severely lacking is NHL-ready F's. They could use some depth signings.

Rather have those guys playing hockey, and call them up when the needed.

The mullet might be 5% better than the next guy in faceoff winning percentage.
Having him kill you for the entire game is not nearly worth it.

Hopefully nothing major, but they said he limped off.

Gots to keep these (frank)ers healthy.

That guy is barely an AHL player. Why would he even be up with the Sabres?
