he didn't develop overseas, buried on 4th line

1 year of ahl practice will make him a better pro then playing a roll he is not built for, 4th liner

My understanding is rosen was lent out to another team?

Guy just needs a re-set maybe? Had a hand injury. Which could make him useless in the eyes of his coaches last year.

One hundred fifty six pounds is not an ahl guy IMO

Absolutely an option

Everything about 5'11 156 lbs. Sounds like a bad fit for the brutal ahl.

But, 🌮 and kevo think he's ready?

Kid needs time to fill out IMO.

* couple nice links too dog, appreciate the links

One thing's for sure, he's gonna have to bulk up

Thanks boss
Thought I pissed people off or something

It's nice to have someone concerned about others feelings in our community 😀

The links suggest lending rosen if he's not able to hang in the ahl.

156 lbs was sophomore year of high school 🤔

he'd not only have to be drafted in the import draft, but he'd also have to want to do that instead of both Rochester and Sweden. So I'd say unlikely.
- TheSabresTaco



Ya mentioned that yesterday
I'd imagine the drafting part would be easy if he made his intentions known
Fabian lysell and Oscar olasson did same thing last year so it's not out of the question I guess

the signing of the player does not indicate your suggestion. If he has a poor camp and get destroyed by all the other prospects, I'm sure it's possible he's loaned to the SWE-2 league.

Quinn wasn't exactly Arnold Schwarzenegger playing in the AHL last season.
He'll be fine.

So with pilut being a RFA do the sabres attempt to sign him or just let him walk ?
- Anderdog

Think he walks, signed a new contract over there.

I also think that the 154 was his draft weight, no?

He's had a full year to add to that, plus whatever he can do this summer.

I see him listed at 165lbs. Still needs some filling out but that 9 pound difference is significant

Hes definitely over 156... the kids 19

Interesting note here on Lawrence Pilut. According to this report from @MrMadhawk in Sweden, Pilut wants out of his deal with Traktor in the KHL (understandably) and has ambitions of returning to the NHL with the #Sabres. Buffalo still holds on to his rights for one more season.
