who are the core players for the next 3 years, that is what they need to figure out

up front
tage
skinner by default
tuch
cozens
probably quinn and peterka

on D
dahlin assuming he signs an extension
power
samuelsson


that's it IMO
probably lump savorie in the mix up front

so lots of decisions to make

esp when you do not have your goalie prospects under contract
johnson is not under contract

is casey a long term fixture?
is krebs?
is joker?
is bryson?
is asplund?
is comrie?
is 6k?
is olofsson?
is girgens?
is asplund?

Ahhh!
You are now sounding like my posts from July -> October.
Evaluation year it is:
Mitts is the interesting one, have to see how Krebs plays out...don't need both Krebs and Mitts, Mitts has the upper hand and should in his 5th season
Krebs shakey, but I want to see a full season, he might be trade bait
Bryson, decent 3rd pair, can plaay both sides...would be perfect 7th if the y could sign Johnson as 3LhD
Joker, I've seen enough, he's trade bait IMO
Comrie, decent placeholder for now
Asplund, would like to see more production from him, solid defensively.
6K, need to see good #'s in the Aa
Olofsson, he's deadly on PP, but he's also trade bait eventually IMO
Girgensons, don't need him if Asplund is staying.

You're being silly paying a vet league minimum after earning every penny of an almost 2 million per current deal.

He's played 68 games on a 3 year deal so far. That's good, right?

Ah, you're assembling the team.

I usually post what the Sabres are actually going to do.

Make okposo captain/ keep girgensons as alternate.
Extend them.

I get the trolling, starting to look like a bogo, the way gurgs is playing

It's a numbers game going forward. Soon, they need to make smart moves and get away from the emotional attachment. Guys like Dahlin, Tuch, Cozens, Tage, Saamuelsson and Power are your leadership. Soon, they will not need old men like Girgs and Okposo to show the way...else it is a failed rebuild.
That is the point.
Take $8.2m aand invest it into the future, not keeping the past on life support.

5 mil paid so far for 23 points

Anyone have the latest on Dahlin?
Power stepped up nicely.

Sabres did come in dead last and draft power, because of girgensons freak injury.

That's good right?

Think it was the blow to the head he took against Carolina?

Well atleast the Jets Offense is beat up to. See how aggressive the Jets defense gets. Watch Ward have a couple big swing passes out of the backfield.

Uncle ion , calling on 28 year old an " old man" to prove a point.

Your running out of bs, better hit the liquor 🤔

Yes, atleast added to it, said the injury happened in the 1st period. Just didn't feel it till after the game

Could be a slight concussion or the Sabres just being smart with a head shot of their superstar.

Anti- tua move

I think someone pointed out that dahlin had a maintenance day recently. Maybe something lingering, need him back for eichel.

Well teams are teeing of on him, try and take him out of the game goes a long way to disrupting the Sabres.

Risto was a healthy scratch last night.

I am legitimately shocked that Torts isn't in love with Risto

Risto wanted a 1 on 1 Synergy Meeting and Torts was not amused

Good to see. Deserves a suspension.

Florida’s Matthew Tkachuk will have a hearing today for High-sticking Los Angeles’ Jonathan Quick.

Well that was horrible

That one feels better. Int pissed him off.

Lawson gets mugged

Yep

Did Davis drop that

KA should have made signing Kadri and MAF top priority. Made them offers they couldn't refuse. That my friend had Stanley cup written all over it.
Still laugh at some guys wanting Johnny Hockey. Him, Skinner and Okposo would have assured a top three pick.

Save% this season

Fleury .888
Comrie .894

Just sayin….
