Lance and Dobber having a nice little chat about Peyton Krebs' worth to this roster, similar to what we discussed the other day.

What kind of troll would go through this much effort to lie about where the Sabres most likely will end up? They set up an entire corporation just to troll the Sabres, that's wild....talk about a long play.




22. Buffalo Sabres

Points: 87.2
Playoffs: 21 percent
Stanley Cup: 0 percent

The big question: Is Buffalo strong enough without the puck to match the hype?

Good on Lance for jumping in, but hope he knows how mismatched he is there.

My Roster Prediction:

Forwards (14 - Savoie on IR then to Rochester for conditioning assignemnt
1. Tage
2. Skinner
3. Benson
4. Cozens
5. Middlest
6. Oloff
7. Krebs
8. Tuch
9. Petterka
10.Okposo
11.Girgs
12. Greenway
13. Jost
14. Biro

15 Dahlin
16 Clif
17 sam
18 Power
19 Joker
20 Johnson
21 Stillma

22 Levi
23 Comrie

Biro stays as too risky putting him on waivers and, besides Benson, has looked better than the other prospects.

UPL is traded. If he isn;t (and they go with 3 golalies), oloffson is traded or Jost is cut

Biro stays until Savoie is ready to come up from Rochester, then decisions need to be made on Savoie, Benson and Biro

- turbo044


Good work. I'd be surprised by 14F personally.

VO at 2RW, Biro waived seems inevitable to me and will get under my skin. Also think Jost's depth at C is important to them.

Which begs the question: if you have 3 NHL goalies, why do you need 3 NHL goalies? Carrying 3 is admitting that you don't believe in your goalies
- Hank Balling


If you have 3, you have none. Upgrade the coaching so UPL stops playing like he is Enroth’s size and upgrade the d coach so the rest of the team understands defense. Who’s that development coach that was on the bench for a hot min, Gerardi?, drag him onto the bench. Can’t be worse than what we’ve seen

If he thinks the hair on his head is a position of strength, it would makes sense he keeps 3 goalies, pretty simple.

Benson is still getting PP minutes and skating on the top line.

I would think he’s on the opening night roster. Seems pretty late into the preseason for him to still be getting these looks if the intent was to send him down.

Press 1 if you would trade Zach Benson and two 2nds for Jake Chychrun
- TheSabresTaco

Jacob Chychrun as an 18 year old in the NHL had a 20 point season as a D man and was a positive impact player.

The only question now is whether it will be 9 games. Even if he has a down game tonight, he's getting action against the Rags. I hope he can continue his play, because it would force Olofsson to never see the light of day again once Quinn returns.

Even though there will be rookie rest days for him.

The hair on his head is a position of strength, but it is not desirable.

I wonder had Savoie not gotten hurt, if he would be riding with Peterka and Cozens right now.

Olofsson is clearly in the lineup for what he can do on special teams, have to think that forward line would get the least even strength time on ice this year like the kid line got last season.

Means that the Mits and Larry line get the matchup minutes, and the Tage line gets predominantly o-zone starts.

Makes sense in theory

While every other team is cutting their rosters down, Adams is going to pull off 2 trades for players that if they had any value, would've/should've been moved early in the summer?

Not happening.

- washedup20


If your ead the post, you'd see one trade predicted (UPL OR Oloffson), or Jost cut. Never mentioned 2 trades

Krebs was really bad last night. Multiple times I'd see a guy with a "9" on his back gte pushed off the puck or just lose the puck and I was thinking it was Benson (#9). I was relieved it was #19 in every case. Maybe Krebs just had a bad game, but, I thought he was our worst forward and second worst player (behind 85)

- Swedish_Jesus


agreed, if benson wasn't in their plans they wouldn't have played him multiple times with Skinner and Tage and wouldn't have him as a centerpiece of PP1. Would seem counterproductive.
