This roster will struggle to compete with the top of the league but could be a big growth year for the core, if the plan is to fitz the bed next season for Bedard/Michkov

All good points, none were the heading into the draft as the unanimous 1OA though.

Just like when I watched Dahlin highlights before the draft I thought the kid couldn’t finish.

Nhl draft is a roulette table

I'll take the slower guy who actually produces more off the faster guy who produces less (Wright vs. Cooley or Savoie for example).

I’m kidding, he’s a safe pick no doubt about it.

Yeah, I agree but there gonna have to spend some money just to get to the floor. Don't think he would come but I would throw a big 2-3yr contract at Manson to be Dahlin's partner. And Kadri or Hertl would be getting phone calls to, but don't think they would answer.

Seems obvious that Anderson is still hurt, but please continue to go off.

Sure, makes perfect sense to play an injured goalie to win a game they could have won with Kim in net

Can’t hurt to call

Players play hurt all the time

Agree

I compared him to Tavares for the reason that he is highly talented, I just don’t like his foot speed, they already have a high end slow top 6 player on the roster with Mitts. I never said the Sabres shouldn’t draft him if they could.

Crank the drama notch down guy

ummm...right...#dramabuzz

Yes they do but certainly not when there is absolutely no reason play them. Maybe they forced him to play. Jack and Robin should chime in on this topic

do you really think anderson, at 40 yrs old, would have played if he thought he couldn't handle the workload?

The solution was to play without a goaltender last night...?

Considering the situation the Sabres were in and how Anderson look at times physically last night? Yes.

"handle the workload" was the key phrase...it wasn't like he was facing the avs, it was the yotes...that said, he wasn't 100%...most players aren't anyway...

the only thing i'll say is, stand-up job old man...take a couple of days off

Doug Pederson, former Eagles HC

The former NFL head coach could land on his feet in Buffalo and give himself another head coaching opportunity sooner rather than later. Pederson sat out of the 2021 NFL season, but could view working with Josh Allen as an ideal situation.

Pederson also has ties to head coach Sean McDermott as the two worked on the same Philadelphia Eagles staff from 2009-2010.

I don't think they forced anything, that game could have been canceled anytime up to 90 minutes before start time. Anderson had plenty of time to say he couldn't go.

See what they do, there's decent choices out there.

i just found that name intriguing...never thought of him

on the bills potential oc should dorsey depart...

i think the most important aspect of a new offensive coordinatior might just be how well he breaks down the defensive tendencies of the opposition...josh allen has command of the offense and after four seasons seems well equipped to call plays as well as make play-calling adjustments at any point in the game...having an oc quickly say what a particular defense likes to do in a certain situation might be what allen needs most

I agree

Tonight will be interesting, have the Sabres flew anyone in to meet the team in Colorado. I would be stunned if they went back to back with Anderson already and with Tage getting banged up.

No I don't think he would play hurt at all. Others do

Can he? Who plays tonight?

Doesn't seem like Tokarski is ready.
