Bad thing is they probably aren't relying that much on analytics at this point with goaltending. It's more about the 2 cents on the Dollar Adams is willing to pay a goaltender. Analytics helps guide Adams, they don't sign the contracts.

Find the best goalie available for less than 2m and no more than 2 years.

Huge part of the next 5 years is hoping Levi, UPL, or Comrie turn into a #1.

I don’t understand everyone mad at the goalies?

How many goals deflect off Sabres sticks?

How many times is an opposing player left open back door on a pass across

Or heck. Even odd man rushes.


I don’t think Comrie is the best goalie ever. But I do think the team has not been supportive.

Missing samuelsson has hurt badly

Bad thing is Hope has just about run out in these parts. They have put a blockade around the team and Adams seems to be locked into one track mind frame.

If he's trying to build value in a few players to trade them, it might be a fair plan....but is that what he's doing? Is he capable of a good hockey trade? Can't keep selling for draft picks.

To get cap compliant due to the return of Aaron Ekblad from LTIR, the Panthers are waiving forward Rudolfs Balcers.

All i know is Peg's posts are analytical darlings.

So we’re the Avalanche the last two years.

Top team in the league according to fancy stats and last time I checked they had a parade.

A good decision maker uses all of the information they have available to them to come to decision.

Most elite teams have elite analytics.

It’s not rocket science, very basic actually which makes your reluctance to acknowledge it speak volumes, especially when Helen Keller sees the game better than you do.

So, what's the success look like at year 5 again?

Who here signed up for year 5 being, maybe, a playoff spot?

And, yeah my takes are 20%? Really, funny how it was me v. The entire board last week when I said Comrie sucked during the Tampa game (in fact i got a mini ban that night) Tide turned quick on that one, eh?

How's Ville Husso doing right now? How's Ulmark doing? Analytics baby. Who needs goaltending when you have Jason Karamanos?

Your takes are 100% crap 1000% of the time. But your expected takes...man they're awesome.
- lacaprup

I included your Comrie take in consideration when I said you shot 20%.

Broken clock is right twice a day.

Power, peterka above for me

Cozens, asplund, quinn, at expectations

tuch, skinner slightly below

krebs has just been lapped by everyone else. idk why he's not in rochester.

idk what you do with olofsson. either scores two goals or is the worst player on the ice any given game.

Notice you left some players out of your evaluation assessment...

Yet you've missed out for years.

Over the summer I calles Krebs, Cozens and Mitts the 3 stiffs. I said Cozens is the only one who will break out or had a chance to. Looks like I hit the nail on the head there too.

I'm trying to see where my assessment is off. I gave Adams credit for the Tage contract immediately. In fact, I said it was a great, not good, deal.

The specifics in your posts are just not there. The expected specifics say you're awesome of course, but the actual specifics are no where to be found.

About everyone on this board said Cozens was gunna break out.

Same with Tage's contract.

I am not totally blaming the goalies, they actually have been one of the bright spots. But Comrie and his rebound control the last 3 games has been bad. And the defense has hurt them, that's on Adams and his Isolationist mind set right now. Goaltending has probably won them 3 or 4 games. They need improvement on all 3 levels. Samuelsson alone isn't gonna help that, they need a partner for Power, Joker isn't it. And they need a couple more finishers, they have to many of the same type players.

Vegas's first goal on the power play a one timer moving post to post is one of the hardest if not the hardest rebound control for a goalie to handle, especially since it was a low shot where either it goes in or the shooter knows there will be a rebound

Glad we sat Quinn for Krebs


If I see that happen again im plugging my a$$ right behind Granato and chirping the shhh out of his dumb ass decisions

He had one bad rebound that lead to a goal last night. He's really not the problem, they scramble to much in their own zone.

Look like my beer league team.

For as much of a black hole goaltending was last year, and how little they did about it in the offseason, goaltending has been fine.

About everyone on this board said Cozens was gunna break out.

Im not calling myself Nostradamus, just proving Pegs is actually full of poop as per usual. We expect so much more from him but actually get so much less.

Glad we sat Quinn for Krebs

My buddy wants lindell, thinks he would be available/ forced move . What type of trade/ players would the Sabres need to acquire him?
