Hopefully it's just early stumbles like with baseball, and then they'll figure things out.

It's only going to get worse unless they move teams to a couple different bubbles.

Baseball had two teams and they can do double headers.

The NHL cant afford this.

not to mention its now 7 teams.

Ehh, he has 15 points in 12 games, he'll learn how to play defense in due time.

So since Dahlin 3 points are all on the PP, does that mean he sucks 5 on 5.

Maybe ?

I just find him underwhelming, especially for a # 1 overall pick. Jeez, he was benched this year !

I expected more. Hopefully, he gets better. That's all I want : For him to be better - and sure - more electric, and more commanding. Be more "first overall" looking.

Just my 2 cents.

If Im Anaheim and Im trading Gibson, or Im Arizona, trading Kuemper, Im looking to rebuild, even on a small scale.

Theres no way Im interested in 68 or 23, just based on the fact that both will be 26 and well paid by the time the league resembles anything close to normal.

Im talking Cozens or Quinn, hell, even Dahlin and Picks way before Im thinking about guys who best production/salary ratio is soon behind them

Good Post!!! I could see Anaheim maybe taking 1 of them. But Arizona is trying to cut 10 to 15 mill, and with being punished by the NHL they need Picks and RD

McCabe added to the Covid list.

I assume they will end up with at least 10 players.

If he gets us a top goalie in the league id be all for it. They'd want goal scoring so give em cozens. Gibsons been one of the best for a few years now and hes signed for like 6 more years.

If I try to get freaky. Gibson for Mitts, Tage, Miller, 2 firsts(maybe 3), Hutton(for cap purposes), Quinn, one of the D prospects, They can have their combo out of the 7 choices and then we'd get to keep both Rasmus and Cozens.

A man can Dream

- DirtyDan


Personally, I just don't see either of those packages as appealing. Time the Sabres learned from the Lehner fiasco and stopped giving 1st rounders, or in this scenario, big pieces and 1st rounders for goalies. Rather draft Wallstedt.

If we can't acquire one this year, wait, we have 2 that should play meaningful games soon. Sign a replacement for Hutton as a backup, hope that Ullmark improves if he resigns.
