"The Buffalo Sabres are the envy of the National Hockey League"

lol, What teams are drooling over the sabres prospect scoring forwards? They don't have any. The Amerks have zero scorers ready to come up to the NHL, Armia and the other guys can't even score at the AHL level, Luke Adam is not a prospect. Reinhart is the only guy who has HIGH end talent. People get excited that buffalo drafts a guy and he makes the team and scores 5-10 goals, how boring.

Detroit has some talented forward prospects that make Amerks forwards look like East Coast Roller Hockey players.

Armia is the only guy I have hope for but he is lacking in heart and must prove this year he can score at AHL level. The object of the game of hockey is to score more goals than the other team, you need high end talent and a full team including 3rd line and defense that can help with scoring.

Every single year everyone say this guy is a future captain and blah blah blah...How is Shawn Anderson working out? Did Phil Boucher become the next Al MacGinnis? When a guy can score really well at AHL level then I can have hope.

Dan Catenacci is a midget and plays very small, goes no where near the net. Kevin Sundher has had 3 concussions and can't score at AHL level, these were two guys people were so excited about...

You know if you would have a normal conversation you would be more welcomed around here. You do bring up some valid points but you also female dog all the time so nobody takes you seriously.

I find it amazing anyone actually reads his posts. He is probably a poster with two accounts. Uses one to chat.. and one to troll.

My guess is yes...just not sure who from the pool of prospects we have will be the guys who play on those lines yet.. but I can see the likes of Comphere, Baptise, Girgs, Fasching, Bailey, Larsons, there. I think Lemiuex plays on the 2nd. I'm sure I missed someone who will compete for bottom six..maybe Carrier?
- IonSabres


seems like we are going to have a lot of forwards competing for 6-8 jobs- on the bottom 3 lines, in a couple years. wouldnt hate murray moving some quantity for some top line quality, if its there.

Could be that if they are developed correctly like they say they want too. Some of these players could turn out a lot better than expected. (see Detroit)
