Logjam is already started. 2 NHL G's + an AHL deal. 6 NHL D + at least 1 AHL D. 11 NHL F's + ?.

If you plan on waiving another G + 2 D, there isn't room.

It will get worse just from the sheer amount and how young the Sabres already are at alot of positions on the Big Club.

I have a strong feeling the vision is pushing Olofsson out completely by use of prospects come January

I don't think it's any of that. I think they have more faith in their players than we do. Dumping bad players has been challenging for everyone without taking money back and they only do moves when it's convenient for them, and we simply don't have the patience for it.

Well, if you want to say they have faith in UPL, then I'd say they are bad at evaluation. I think we know they don't actually have faith in him and struck out at making a move.

They'll have to pull the plug on a couple forwards. Going to lose some very good AHL players who likely don't get much more than a cup of coffee in the NHL.

Why not October with someone who is nhl ready now. Then push greenway or someone else who isn’t as good out by a prospect in January.

But it’s too late we signed jost, okposo and girgs so no room left in the inn

I've said all along that I don't understand the justification here and going way out on a limb to defend him. I don't get it, and I don't think his IQ is high enough to become more than he already is.

Why, I don't know, but they like Greenway and clearly don't intend on getting rid of him this year. He plays a style the Sabres admitted they want more of. I want to give him a chance to see what he can do here.

Yes that's the only true ek rumor ever.

Do you really honestly think ka had a similar opinion of Reinhart as boss

- TheSabresTaco

ek did not post the tage thing


the only thing he ever got right on the sabres was Zubrus

I fully believe the story that KA + staff have never been high on him, but here we are.

He makes no sense as a partner for Levi, which just gets more frustrating after 2 years of hearing how invaluable Anderson's experience and mentorship were.

Agreed, they are gonna have a log jam of talent in Rochester in another year if he isn't willing to dip more than just that pinky toe in the cold water.

Trade: #Flyers acquire the rights to prospect Massimo Rizzo and a 2025 5th Rd Pick from #LetsGoCanes in exchange for rights to forward David Kase.

#Flyers had their eyes on Rizzo for a while, the rumored prospect in the Tony DeAngelo trade that fell apart in late June.

I don’t think IQ is his problem, it’s positioning.

eh. greenway and clifton aren't fringe. i mean he's doing his job addressing team needs. Your 4th line and bottom pair can't be the only ones who hit people.

then we can expect him to not do anything for the rest of the year, like every year he's been here.

you know rsh is from the 7th dimension and he uses words and phrasing that can't actually be perceived by our minds, right.

I'm curious how much they tried at making some moves.

My suspicion is they like their guys so much that they barely tried, and were overly content with making fringe moves yet again.

Kind of think 'overly confident' is really 'willing to live with'. A team who settles.

That doesn't really jive with the fact Adams was trying to acquire Chychrun last year but was unwilling to part with multiple 1sts.
