That’s kind of what he said

There’s layers here

And that chick he slapped 100% deserved it, and it was hardly a slap. He shoved her head with his hand, basically.

He had a cock to go around but when it didn’t, those few he left out blew a gasket.

Just take a look at his ex who he had removed from the game a few weeks back because restraining order lol

30g power forward who skates like the wind hits and fights, here we are with a team full of cupcakes

First

Get it done? fwiw I would hate paying anyone 12 franking Mill with this cap era. Let alone the 11 Dahlin is getting for not even being a ppg player.

- DirtyDan




Dahlin is still Dahlin, just absolutely no shooting luck at all while he’s on the ice.

Thought I’d seen it all last year when Bryson had the worst puck luck imaginable

With the Ducks being unveiled as Scott Wheelers #5 prospect pool in the league today.

There are 4 teams left, Sabres have yet to be named.

Would you consider trading benson? Is he untouchable ?

If Vancouver demands him in a trade for Pettersson then I move him.

Outside of that, I think his upside is as high as the other franchise pillars that have left the organization in recent years and he’d be as close to untouchable as one could be

He looks more comfortable in the league at 18 than Jack Hughes did.

Happy Monday!

Here's an update look at NHL Prospect Pipelines, available in real time through https://t.co/hbS4lMhyAJ.

Note: A few high scoring, low sample players were temporarily removed for this in Jérémie Poirier (CGY) and Tristan Luneau (ANA).

Shows the incompetence of the organization to not win hockey games with the likes of Eichel, Reinhart, Dahlin, Power, Mittelstadt, Cozens, and the list goes on and on.

Hopefully we aren’t saying the same about Peterka, Quinn, Benson, Savoie, Kulich, Ostlund, Rosen a few years from now

Id love to see his reasoning behind this, probably not worth the subscription price though.

Yeah, here's what I think. While it's unlikely any of us has a clue about what's inside Darcy's head, and things like the salary cap, NTCs/NMCs, and the declining economy's impact on future revenues make it nearly impossible to trade anyone of any significance, it's not inconceivable that the Sabres could make a mid-season move.

Vanek, Roy, Miller, Pommer are probably not on the block since they represent the young core of this team and are all locked up long-term. We all know Vanek's contract is insane, but given the length and amount of the others, it seems unlikely to me there's a better deal out there. Remember Larry Quinn is a numbers guy, and 5 mil 6 years from now will be looking pretty good. Roy's deal is an especially favorable one for the club. You might even be able to throw Goose into this category b/c his value to the Sabres is high given his hustle and toughness.

Max, Kotalik, and Connolly are popular choices for a change of venue, but their UFA status would mean they'd need to go to a contender for the receiving team to be willing to assume the risk. That said, what's the likelihood of a contender sending the Sabres something worthy of a blockbuster? That's not even taking into account Max sucking for the last 2 years, Kotalik getting a reputation of being lazy, and (Tin) Connolly being more fragile than the leg lamp in A Christmas Story. This, coming from the guy who actually owns a Connolly jersey.

As far as young talent at forward goes, Stafford, MacArthur, Paille are the only roster players in that category. They're all tradable, but not enough to bring in an impact player. To me, the Sabres would need to include one of Mancari, Gerbe, or Kennedy to get another team interested. Possible, though Gerbe seems like he's got a future here.

Lastly, if they're really trying to fix the recent injury problem at defense, they're not going to trade any defensemen. Even still, it's more likely they'll do what they did last year and bring in a veteran like Nolan Pratt to temporarily fill the gap until Weber and Sekera are healthy again (a few weeks?). I haven't looked to see who like that is available, but they found someone last year and could probably do it again.

We Sabres fans have gotten used to the fact that Darcy rarely makes any moves. In fact, who really does anymore? I'd love to be wrong, but not at the expense of 26 / 9 / 30 / 29. You can have Peters. Twice.

Better prospect

Power or benson ?

Imagine the power overpayment contract weighs negatively against power

Power.

I wouldn’t let a small sophomore blip the last 20 games take away from the bigger picture.

Would power still go 1OA?

It’s tough being patient with these young guys.

Yes, he would. Power is 20-21 years old and plays way above his age. Even when struggling.

Like Dahlin. Defensmen take more time to completely develop.

Go get Elias Petterson and use those prospects.

For such a great player.

Mitts oslund and any thing to get him.

It won’t happen. Ever. But we have the ammo to do it

In a 2021 redraft? Pretty early. Probably. Beniers isn't having a good year. McTavish looks good. No one else to really mention.

Keep in mind, Rosen is in the same draft class.

I think right now, mctavish would help this current team more than power


part of that is not on power, he is not on the top pp and he probably won't as long as we have dahlin


after saying that, I am shocked we are not seeing dahlin and power paired up for a few games here or there, it's not like it's a non development year

I don’t think it’s that far out of the question.

I think you can make a case for McTavish, but I’d probably have Benson as the top forward in that 2021 class.

I’m happy we have both Power and Benson and didn’t have to pick one or the other

I loved Brandt Clarke in the pre-draft process also. Will be interesting to see him develop in the Kings organization.

Power has the highest floor of the three if he can figure out the defensive side of things.

If he can’t, then it definitely will open the door for both Hughes and Clarke to stake their claim.

at this point, I think Power should be miles ahead of J.J. Moser and the only place he really is ahead is salary cap
