Depends on how Housley views him in the system/veteran status/progress of Guhle. On the ice, based on this system, I would guess he's low man on the pole. However, he has PK ability, so keeping his minutes far down and for defensive situations wouldn't be the worst thing in the world. Just means you're probably rolling with 7 D most nights.

11 forwards and 7 D?

Who knows. There's a lot of ways to guess. But they're just guesses. We'll have to wait and see. Personally, I feel he has use. Just... not a whole lot. PK and D zone FOs. Put him out there for 8-10 minutes a night and he'll be a dandy little piece. Pair him with Ristolainen again, and kale flavored cow pies will rain from the heavens.

We had one of the worst PK's last year and his days of defensive abilities/specialist died like 5 years ago.

At this point hes just dead cap space.

Same here. That's just not something most teams do these days unless they're on a road trip and end up with a plethora of injuries.

No official word yet on OTT Colin White (hand/wrist) after blocking shot. FWIW, initial sense last night wasn't encouraging. Update to come.


Thank the flying spaghetti monster we didn't draft this "injury prone" player...

I'd have to see him in the shootout to determine that.


Edit: Had to add in the typical "Myers is gone dude, let it go"!

Evander Kane-Jack Eichel-Jason Pominville
Matt Moulson-Johan Larsson-Hudson Fasching
Seth Griffith-Jacob Josefson-Nick Baptiste
Nicolas Deslauriers-Kevin Porter-Justin Bailey

Interesting that Bailey is going again tonight. Didn't think he played well last night, maybe this is one last shot before the first round of cuts?


Nathan Beaulieu-Zach Bogosian
Justin Falk-Victor Antipin
Josh Gorges-Matt Tennyson

Heard from a lot of Sabres media guys that Bailey was one of the best forwards at the prospects challenge. Love his size and speed, but he'll have to put the puck in the net to stay with the big club


Is Gorges like 10th on this depth chart?

we did this last night for bogosian. I'll save you the time: your comeback is supposed to be "Kaiser loves Lehner" and I say you're right.

Don't we have too many forwards to play 7D? I mean I'm scratching my head at who will make the starting 12. If it was 11 I'd imagine there would be a decent player in the stands OR Bailey/Baptiste/Fasching are all in the minors.

Niagara gorge is pretty sweet. Letchworth, too, especially this time of year. Cool little farm stand on the way in Warsaw that sells maple syrup and pumpkin pies mmmmmm.

The hockey player not so much.
