Where does Tage fit, are they gonna try Cozens at 2RW. Does Asplund or Rousto make the team.

What I would do personally, which of course won’t happen.

Hall-Eichel-Cozens
Skinner-Staal-Thompson
Olofsson-Eakin-Reinhart

I think it comes down to if they roll 4 lines or not


my guess is cozens and tage are on the wing to start the season

hall-eichel-coznes
skinner-staal-reinhart
casey-eakin-tage
girgens-lazar-okposo


I could see eakin drop to 4th center and rieder or girgens on third line lw

Bold = ?
Rest = Yup.
Those are, in fact, targets. Good ones I might argue
Not everyone get there though...Puts & Takes

Bolts 4th line (although changed around, Gourde spent some time there, Johnson played up in PO's):
Maroon (23pts / $900k)
Paquette (18 pts / $1.65m)
Johnson (31 pts / $5.0m)
Avg 24 pts / $ 2.55m

- IonSabres



League minimum is 700,000 .
Maybe not
700,000 = 2.1 million for 3 players

I still think girgs is a tweener a 4A+ or 3B- guy at 2.2

Dare I say a high bred
- mix between a 1.4 4th line larry and a $3 million /30 point guy?

Right in the middle/ forward # 9.5 out 12 forwards.

I'm good if your good on this conversation until we see what happens on the ice.
Either way / no matter what happens, posters are still gonna say, we could have got him for less.

Girgs is super likeable, if we didn't completely suck and , hate everyone's face on the Sabres, our fanbase would like him - again.


You I'll be happy he's here for 3 years, that we didnt let a homegrown talent walk away for nothing. Good assessment management.

Or , I'm completely wrong 🤝

Maybe 1 of them
Doesn’t look like there’s any open slots as of now though
Unless they beat out Tage & Mitts

Shut up, it's not like you don’t beat to death all the crap you spule on hear. You come at me when there is 5 or 6 other posters talking about it. When I want advice from a Bartender I will ask.

36- you've been doing a great job posting over the past 1 year or so??? Consistent, low key , non confrontational for the most part. Solid points of view.

Did u just pop your cherry on fitz arguement train?

Have I missed something prior?

Depends on how he looks I’d think

He probably gets 1st shot at making the roster,
but could always get sent down at any point if he doesn’t play well

Still wanna do that bet whether or not he gets 20goals?

I wonder who the goalie will be that they pick up; the D they trade and prospect or Mitts get dealt for the goalie. I also wonder if they get a D that fits KA and Ralph's vision more than just JB all puck moving vision.

That sounds reasonable to me
But i really don’t care
Hopefully it’s a bet I’ll lose & Tage will prove me wrong about him!

It’s probably fair to assume we won’t see any more wheeling & dealing until they get contracts settled for Sam, Olofsson & Ullmark

Yeah, that’s a bummer
Are they screwing up?
Or is it just one of those injuries that needs multiple surgeries to get u right again?
