Thank you for the confirmation. 'His' analytics?
- Otsegolectric

where do you get the impression , it is the Sabres he is using .

Ya i agree that was a pretty poor take, but overall he's very knowledgeable and a good listen/read.

I like myers a lot, just wouldnt mind him being dealt for a quality top 6 F. Hell or even work a deal with Edm for #3 overall.
- Otsegolectric

He contradicts himself of a fair bit and tries to use advanced stats to make himself sound a lot smarter than he actually is. To the average person it sounds impressive but if you listen to him enough it's really nothing special.

I would deal Myers for high end forward of similar potential but I don't think I'd deal him for 3rd overall. I'm not as big on our defence so I'd rather see them add than try and subtract from it without knowing how Risto, Pysyk, McCabe and Zadorov are going to turn out.

They prob both play 2 more years in college, and then prob a year or two in roch...
And Fasching is a winger
Compher is currently a center, but I've read that he could project to be a winger at the NHL level
We do also have Larsson that can play both center & wing
After being so thin down the middle since Briere & Drury left, we really have some fantastic depth at the position now
- jdfitz77

My only point was , folks forget about them being in our pipeline . We will have a wealth of talent in a few years. I think they both end up as wingers . Not even worried about next year or the season after that 16 -17 is when I see us back in the playoff hunt.

And people say I have problems.....................

No !

Not sure what that means exactly? Oh wait, you believe in grit and compete over analytics. K got it
- Otsegolectric

I believe in advanced stats.

Did you know Myers has the toughest defensive assignments of any Sabres defensemen?

He had a 41% offensive zone start percentage, played the top PK minutes, played with Mike Weber, and Henrik Tallinder, and was still able to impress most people.

If he's not a "franchise #1" he's as solid of a #2 as your gonna find IMO

I see Garth has posted a ROR blog, when are folks going to realize the Avs won't let him go.
- SABRES 89

with the news that came out today looks like he just waits to be a UFA

ROR is not leaving the AVS and KANE is not leaving the Hawks

No did not know that, thanks.

Hey I get why some people don't like the guy (I know you said you do)

I just don't know what he's gonna have to do to people to come around in him

Was he paired with weber that much? Thought weber played majority of year with mcbain?

Hope youre right on being solid#2 at min. Talents def there

Never going sink in with the folks that live in Fantasyland and think Collier is a good source for an informed opinion.

I like how that looks
But with that being said, it would mean Hodgson, Ennis & Grigorenko are all moved to the wing or traded
One of them + Ehrhoff could be a pretty nice package for a guy like O'Reilly, E.Kane, etc
- jdfitz77

Won't happen. Ever. He's not worth trading for. Even if. IF. He was on the market, which he is not.

I don't even have a snappy come back

Myers + Girgensons for Nyquist


Eat celery

Draft Bantitty and Ekbald.

Get someone who is 59% better than Girgensons

Carrier, Baptiste & Possler all look like top9 guys also
Darcy certainly had his faults, but he did a fantastic job of selling our assets off for top value
Murray has all kinds of pieces to work with to mold the team as he sees fit

Happy fathers day to al you fathers . and if your are not a father..
I wished you happy Palm sunday couple months back.

Feel free to start a new topic for discussion

Oh God, anything. Even PKane to Buffalo in 2015.

Let's talk options on where to obtain a later 1st rounder. There's an infinite amount of topics that don't have the word ROR in them AND they are feasible at the same time.

Ehrhoff and Stafford for #3 overall.

ROR is not leaving the AVS and KANE is not leaving the Hawks
- SABRES 89

Who Knows what ROR wants looks like to me it's going be a money battle part 2 ..

The avs will trade him or he will just test the market and go to the highest bidder
next year

Ehrhoff and Stafford for #3 overall.
- Otsegolectric

Fine, perfect. Something tangible. Unlikely, but entertaining. I'll roll with it.

I think the Oilers would prefer Foligno instead of Stafford.

Ehrhoff, Foligno, Sabres 2nd, Sabres 3rd for 3rd overall?

And again, the Avs will lose because giving up a player like that would be (frank)ing dumb
