Said a few weeks ago he's been playing with a bad shoulder, really affected his physical play. Give Novikov a sniff.
- Buff36


Sabres signed him to a big (relatively speaking) long term deal after a cup of coffee in the NHL.

His play almost immediately began to deteriorate.

Instead of reassessing his long term value to the deal, they keep trotting him out there on the top pair.

He gets continually injured, and is now out for the season.

Would any team want to trade for Samuelsson with his contract situation and issues?

Why criticize an actual Sabres fan for supporting the team?

Go root for another team

Heard Bryson might be the next Tage. Important to get another look at him.

Some teams fully support their top prospects when they're in the NHL.

Teams like the Sabres alternate their top 2 franchise defensemen with Bryson.

Can't make it up.

Would you trade Owen power for a gritty forward?

Is power off limits ? Type of guy you build a franchise around?

Well I really don't know what to say to you 39! Been said on hear for a bit he should be playing 3LD to get him healthy and maybe find his game. IMO with the way Novikov and Lindgren have grown Samuelsson could be used as a chip. But you need to cut his minutes down, get him Healthy and find his game. He got the contract because he can play the game, they just seem to want to over extend what he should be doing on the ice.

why not...if the owner has no fans it forces a change... the ONLY recourse the fan have is not go. Sorry but I expect a professional sports team to actually try to win games, yeah CRAZY I know.

Still wonder how much better Dahlin could be if he had the proper mentorship and Coaching

When EJ is activated, and Donnie can't mis-cast Samuelsson, they might be better off.

KA is way too committed to guys he inherited. Shocking GM behavior really. What are Bryson and Olofsson still doing here? Why are they filling in?

Is Samuelsson even a decent trade chip right now?

Doesn't seem to be.

The team will move out of Buffalo without fan season ticket support

Even you can’t be this frustrated, to want the team to move ?

It’s a really stupid thought , blaming fans that still want to root for the team.

I’m pissed they suck, but it’s still my team

We're going down the road of selling low on a top young player, again...?

No thank you.

No, that's why I said we need to find his game again. That 4.2mill could be appealing in a year or 2 if he does.

Samuelsson is barely more than halfway through the first season of his long term deal, and he may already be a reclamation project.

So Sabres.

Instead of miscasting Samuelsson, they can miscast Erik Johnson.

Sounds great.

You’re talking poop about the fans that support the team and go to the games still.

You’re a clown, you’ve given up all hope and ride the bandwagon

Anyone feeding this franchise money given the way it’s being managed is a part of the problem. And a sucker.

Something needs to change, who you moving on from ?

Donnie
Adams
Power
Cozens
Mitts
Tage
Skinner

Could you rank who’s at fault and who should go to turn the franchise around a bit.

You pay for your season tickets up front, so I’m not currently feeding this franchise

Go (frank) yourself as well

Adams was close to a Hinostroza deal but he pivoted in the wake of the Samuelsson news. He's on the phone with the Flames trying to bring Prysk home.

Stay tuned 👀
