Just having some fun with the article he posted. You might not want to admit it, but it's fairly close.

I like Krebs, but my view of him as a top 6 prospect has dropped and Kulich is rising.

Hes quickly becoming a name that I wouldnt lose sleep over him being gone and out played by others.

Good read. Surprised at no Levi.
- Lunaion

Have a feelings its just skates cause off the top of my head didnt see askarov on there either

Nice!! Thanks

Could see a future line of Kulich Krebs Savoie. Not taking anything away from are esteemed Captain and Co Captain but Krebs needs better linemates.
- Buff36

They really need one of these prospects/kids to turn into a good top line player.

Sabres are pretty loaded Forward Prospect wise. They really could make some tweaks to the roster without hurting there future.

Close like :
4th line players currently gigs krebs okposo
5th line players sitting in the press box asplund
6th line players in the ahl

I'm not usually high on the kid talent but, krebs is going to be a very good nhl hockey player .
He needs to just keep his ear open to the captains and the center whisperer.

OK, interesting that they split it up.

Good post , very delicate, but spot on 👍

In 2yrs the Sabres should be able to roll 4 lines of Speed Forecheck and scoring.

Very good what though? 3C? Today, I'd say Kulich has the higher ceiling.

There isn't a real difference between Girgs and Bjork. Hate it all you want.

That's fun and all, but 4 lines don't have anything close to equal impact.

Skinner and Tuch won't keep this up forever.

There has to be a few guys who are high end that will have a tough time making the league.
Look at Center... Tage and Cozens will be 1/2 C for a very very long time

That's fun and all, but 4 lines don't have anything close to equal impact.
- Lunaion

True, but really depends on how they blend together. It's not just putting lines together, it's the talent they will be able to throw on those lines.

Been texting with a buddy all day, he had the same point of view, with the rolling 4 lines. Skilled lines.

I'm thinking KA and Donnie are old school and may still employ a checking 4th line? They certainly seem to start every game with the KOG line. Home and away recently.

We may have the talent soon to go 4 lines all offense, but IMO, that's not the Sabres position moving forward.

Maybe I'm hopeful 🤔

Plus that cap space gets eaten up very quickly with Cozens needing a new contract this summer and Dahlin, Joker, UPL and Mittelstadt needing them next summer.

OK, interesting that they split it up.
- Lunaion

I mean I get it, there is so much that goes into goalie rankings and sometimes its more luck than anything on them making it

They have skinner 7th and has had an easy path others like askarov have a wait ahead of them

- Lunaion

I dont hate your opinion, just disagree.

The facts really do not support your opinion though.

Girgs named alternate captain 4 months ago
Bjork demoted to the ahl and recently a healthy scratch

No difference?

Krebs is good, book it

That's what they drafted though. How does this all fit together, with a thug checking line?

Hailing from " parts unknown "

Meier's $10M QO and his long term contract expectations are giant factors in the quality of a trade return San Jose may get for him, and other GM's know it.
- kingcong39

Generally that makes sense but here I think there are three factors that make that less relevant. First, the sharks can choose to just give him a qualifying offer without trading him. No need to trade him. Second, there are a lot of teams interested from what I have read. Plus, they are letting teams who are giving them good offers to negotiate with him up front (from what I have read). Lastly, and most importantly though this is new, I just heard today that they are looking to move Logan Couture and his $8M per contract. Even if they retain $2M, that trade makes for a lot of room to resign Meier outright. Further, takes away any need to trade him especially if they have any good leads on Couture.

It doesn't especially when the next rnd of prospects hit Rochester like Nadeau who should take 4C in a couple years, shoulder Injury hurt him. Put the pressure on the other team, let them worry about what line to shut down.

Simple solution, continue to sign your leadership group year in and year out.
Okposo 1.25 m 1 year
Girgs 2.8 m x 3 years

Kyle okposo a thug?

Realistically I think peterka could be a 4th line checking guy, who can move up and down the line up.
Needs more seasoning

Yeah that’s kind of what you’re doing but go on

The 'facts' don't oppose my opinion either. Paying your 4th line wingers 8.8m is embarrassing enough. Everyone knew they were just going to play them.

Notice how you never mention their play as deserving of full-time lineup spots?
