What’s your projection for Quinn’s ceiling?
- washedup20


Maybe something like 30/40/70. 35/45/80. Depends on linemates as well.
IDK really, but he tends to figure things out and play well after his 1st year to adjust.
I'd look for 20/30/50 this upcoming season as a target.

Quinn and Levi for Hellebyuck is like Vanek and Miller for Carey Price

I wouldn’t have just not made that trade, I would have not made the trade so hard that I slapped back into my mom’s womb and was born again just to not make that trade.

Surprised they have so many D going that High. But if it falls this way. We better hope it's easy to trade for a good young Dman or sign a decent FA for some term.

Greenway Krebs Murray - 20 goals play hard and focus on puck possession down low


Dahlin Samuelsson

Power Player X } play hard with focus on quick transition game

LA - Busch - Can Joker

Murray won’t ever be on this roster or sniff it.

Mitts Krebs savoie / Kulich
Greenway Jost rousek

Krebs eventually needs to be given a chance to play with talented players. He’s a playmaker that played with grinders last year

I would add Rousek and Murray to replace Okposo and Girgs, while using Krebs as trade bait.

The Sabres need to add Murray/Rousek type players to the roster, you continue to try to out think the game. When the games get serious muscle is required.

Murray can’t skate and is slow. Hits literally do not matter.

Greenway is already that

Also, out of the top 4 teams left. Most of them are at the bottom of the league in hits fyi.

Absolutely agree taco, but I still think donnie's system and the young team lead to worse numbers for all 4 goalies. Very little team defense, the idea was to score goals and not particularly worry about stopping them.

Just aging power and samuelsson another season, even dahlin still has room to improve.

Add another 2nd paring, sliding guys like joker down to a more manageable level.

Upl was essentially a rookie right, he absolutely should beat his current statistics.

I'm still looking at his better then .500 record.( 17-11-4 )

Judge goalies on big saves, make one more then the other goalie......

Really is Funny some of the stuff talked about by a handful here earlier. Seems to be the same stuff know that should be worked on.

I would be very tempted

Thats a trade you have to make if JJ is the top prospect/pick. Easy yes from me. Demelo isn't the top 4 I'd prefer though, could flip him

Pat Maroon not only obliterates all your comments, he will leave multiple stanley cup ring imprints on your face when he knocks you out.

Regurgitating a single stat line and concluding an entire facet of the game is worthless is dumb and lazy.

I actually really like DeMelo, think he would be solid next to Power.

I'm just sitting on some good posts from 6 months ago, now I'm repeating them trying to score hockey buzz points.

Most on here think upl sucks, I think he has some upside still. Most likely takes a small step forward.

Joker probably should get traded, but sliding him down a line seems more likely

I'm gonna review some of your posts from last summer, then come back on with some new thoughts 😉

Go for it, would think there mostly about upgrading are Defense and a bunch on Cat. And probably a lot to do with not playing any kind of defensive system. I bet I actually supported UPL more than most, and said the Defense in front of are goalie's was horrible.

Stefon Diggs is not attending Bills OTAs.
Bills fans will be quick to point out OTAs are voluntary. But after Diggs was seen dressing down Josh Allen during Buffalo's playoff loss to the Bengals and was a no-show at the team's offseason program in April, there should be some concern about Diggs' standing with the team. Allen in April said he wasn't worried about Diggs' 2023 availability. The Bills' mandatory minicamp starts next month.
