Lololol

1. The Ukrainian is going to some gay bar to watch a drag show tonight.

2. My daughter went back to school

3. My kid is already out with his ne’erdowell buddies.

4. I’m watching the game with a liter of ginger ale and 2 bags of popcorn.

It’s a thrill a minute, brother.

Line 1 has some potential . Better than any of the Sabres

So you want to put more pressure on Jack to not not
Produce ( which he is not doing as expected) but to shield rookies as well?

- Larsson_fan


Jack is gonna be on our top line regardless
His production won’t be affected by who is on our 3rd line either way

Having Nylander & Mittelstadt is a HUGE offensive upgrade on line 3
Currently our 3rd line has scored 4 goals ALL season

Why is this such a hard concept for you to grasp?
I’m not depending on these kids to “save” us... just give some decent offensive production

Since team speed seems to be a focus...
I’ve got Bailey & Baptiste as the front runners
But they’ll have to produce up here to keep the others from overtaking them

I’d love to see us start bringing some of these guys up at some point
I’m guessing it won’t be till after the deadline though

Gionta > Griffith & Criscuolo

If the plan was keeping the kids in Rochester...
I just don’t see what J Botts was thinking some of these guys were gonna provide that we’ve been playing

If his plan is to build from the draft my guess is he was expecting literally nothing.

Not for any length of time though

For example,
Bailey looked good on the O’Reilly line
Then they dropped him to the 4th & he stopped producing
What did they expect?

Same with bringing up Baptiste & just playing him on line 4

Just giving them a taste is good . but in a position to fail isn't . unless they score everygame here. the get sent back.

Are u implying a “tank” of some sort by J Botts?

That’s a reach imo

Good news on Olofsson
Looks like he may be in that group with Bailey, Baptiste, etc etc etc
I wonder if he’ll come over to Rochester next year
Asplund will most likely

He might keep them all there till the end of the season to see if they can get that team to the playoffs . Winning culture. Last time Roch made the playoffs ?

I’m fine with them being in the AHL

I just don’t get thinking Griffith, Criscuolo, etc were a good plan to be playing regular minutes here when they’re was legit NHLers we could’ve signed to help

Gionta is an obvious example
I’m sure there were others like Pouliot we could’ve brought in as well
