Oloffsson not in the tops 6, doubtful....

The 6 he has are better hockey players.

idk, cozens better the olofsson, maybe, would be a good problem to have I guess.

That looks like a pulled groin

That extra 800K is going to hold him down.

@Benbbaldwin

Expected Points Added:

Ryan Tannehill dropbacks: +166

Derrick Henry rush attempts: +31



@Benbbaldwin
Ryan Tannehill has been efficient when Derrick Henry is not on the field.

Ryan Tannehill has been efficient on non-play action plays.

Ryan Tannehill has been efficient with very poor pass protection.

Like what else does he need to do? Play defense?

Yawn

99% of the time when a team loses their starting QB for an extended period of time they are toast for the season.
- ImThatGuy

Which makes it all the more important to have a decent backup instead of a crap one

YES!

Hutton with the ENG

it's the first scrimmage...and what good is bryson on the bench in buffalo when he could be playing top, all-situation minutes in rochester...

why rush him into irwin's reserve role?

👏👏👏 good post

Tell lunaion that, he would probably disagree.

Oloffson looks good and we probably see pp1 and eichel time in my opinion, but cozens starts there

Right on que 🙊

YES!

😂😂😂 Good for him
I still want him replaced though

I wonder what approach they take with Cozens
Assuming he’s the 2C for the future....
do they:
1- play him at 3C in favorable situations
2- play him at wing all year to take pressure off
3- start him on the wing & move him to 3C at some point in the season

I think he should at least play some Center this year, bc i don’t wanna just throw him into the 2C spot (as early as next season) without any icetime at Center in the nhl

Pray to whoever that Johansson never has to play goal for this team anytime soon.
- ImThatGuy

He did settle down and he may have not had as much ice time as some of the others.

- jdfitz77

Sorry but I don’t believe you are right at all. I said it before and I’ll say it one last time. I wouldn’t worry about Hutton as the backup but I’m not sure about Ullmark as the starter. He has the tools and if he does grab hold of the number one job this team will make some noise as a playoff team.
Do not empty the cupboards on any upgrade.

Girgensons injury looks bad.

Sabres are about to be a mess defensively

Ralph Krueger, who's a very optimistic man, didn't sound very optimistic about Zemgus Girgensons. He said he's getting evaluated.

marty was talking about a pure shutdown line to go against the opposition's top line which means a lot of ice-time for the likes of eakin, okposo, gus/his replacement...the third scoring line could very well be centered by routsalainen with tage on the right side...

if that were to be the case, a top-six role on the right side for cozens might be where they end up going...or if olofsson moves to the right side, maybe left wing on that third scoring line...

a lot of ??? right now but we saw today how much of a difference being in game-shape and game-ready (routsolainen) can make...especially on a team where a vast majority of the players haven't played in 10 months

I just want to know who thinks Eakin is a defensive center. He's absolutely bad defensively.

If they are just hoping he's an adequate enough playmamker and will bring some grit to the middle six, fine, but he is going to get murdered against top lines if this is their plan

you could be right, and you probably have the analytics to back up what you say, but i guess we'll need to wait and see

Jets have asked permission to interview Daboll

Eichel is safe now thank god

- 3rd GM's the charm

Would rather him go to the Jets then the Chargers.

Daboll and Herbert would be unfair
