Promote Karmanos and the other guy. Forgetting his name and make Adams President
- Sabretooth9

If I am Adams I probably try and keep Ventura more than Karmanos

That's fair, completely agree. 🤝

Really feels like a levi / upl season upcoming

- Boss34


Comrie + UPL+ Levi have 73 career starts between them.

I wouldn't gamble a season on that.

If Karmanos leaves, you have to make him AGM. Does 'want to be here' trump everything?

Guaranteed deals.

He might clear out of camp. You never know during the season. Backups you've never heard of get claimed because of injuries.

Anderson looked terrible down the stretch. There's nothing left.

- Lunaion


Anderson is retiring. He will come back as a coach this year. Not like a full time coach on the roster

There’s 0% chance a rookie is getting that many starts. 0

He will if the other option is UPL. It's pretty clear Granato doesn't trust Luukkonen

All Levi down the stretch was a bold statement. No hiding that.

He was not good this year. MAF. He probly also doesn’t want to move again
- Sabretooth9



24--16-4
2.85
908

Agree he probably doesn't want to move
But Minnesota says we don't want you
And need ur cap space

Imo
He's a solid one year option

Exactly.

100% barring Injuries, levi starts 55 games minimum.

2/3rds of the nhl starts - 67%

They love the kid

UPL won’t be here. They’re trying to trade him and if they can’t he’s waived.

They’re also going goalie hunting. It’s their #1 priority. Talked to someone reliable today

Levi is their #2 this year

Let's see who they partner him with. 1A/1B and not playing back to backs is almost the norm now.

Carter Hart, a better prospect than Levi didn’t play 55 games until this past year at age 24 and in year 5 of his career.

Carey Price didn’t start 55 games until year 4 at age 23

55 is not happening for Levi

Not sure why you like that site. Add a D, no names, no moves. It's pretty empty.

I respect your post. My 55 games is an opinion.

I know for sure they love the kid, that's what I'm basing my opinion on. Also the 7 of 9 starts last season.

Cause I actually thought it sounded a lot like stuff discussed on here, other than being blah on a big part of the offseason Defense.

I think 55 is a crazy number for a rookie.

40 I think is pushing it.

30-35 is perfect

He played 41 games this year, the most he's ever played, they're not going to give him 34% more starts as a rookie. He will struggle at times. They need a steady hand to play the lion's share of the games.

Just look back to the last highly touted college goalie in Buffalo, played 15 NHL games his rookie year and did fine, 2.63 .902. 2nd year he played 3 NHL games and struggled mightily 5.08 .795. It wasn't until his 3rd NHL season, he played 2 full years in Rochester between those 3 games and his next NHL action, granted 1 was because of the lost season, before he'd play 48 NHL games as a 25 year old.

Karmanos - Pitt POHO
Ventura - Pitt GM
Sabres - Smoldering ashes

- kingcong39


That’s where Adams POHO, Karmanos GM. Ventura Associate GM… might help. Promotions all around. Over pay where you need to. Keep the band together.
