I agree, Thank you for the excellent list. A guy like Novikov stealing Sammys spot is exactly what this team needs, he is just the opposite of Sammy where toughness and grit are just right at the fore-front for him, so I personally cant wait to see Novikovs year this year. If Sammy gets hurt and Novikov comes up, I would not be suprised if Novikov doesnt let go of that spot

That's exactly what happened in College Football. The SEC and Big10 added teams and buy all the good players. A few of the historically good schools outside of that realm will compete but everyone else is picking up scraps. The strong got stronger. There aren't enough NCAA College Hockey programs for this to work that way. Canadian Jrs and AHL will still be strong places to play. We have to remember a lot of the Canadian Jr kids won't be NCAA eligible until they are 18, 19, or 20 depending on the their schooling. It also means there are more spots in these other leagues for late bloomers to get ice. As others have said, my big concern would be USHL and NTDP.

This isn’t going to create a strong NCAA. The Big10 is going to buy a bunch of players, creating a bigger talent gap.

Dave won't lest his son play here?

Luke Osburn is probably our best LHD prospect and might be our best D prospect outside of Mrtka. I think he makes team USA.

https://thehockeywriters.com/philadelphia-flyers-should-set-sights-on-viggo-bjorck-not-gavin-mckenna-for-2026-nhl-draft/ Viggo Björck the center out of Sweden. He's good but he's short at only 5'9" so his true combine number will be important come June.

Just checking in here in Mid July to see if Pegula has sold the Sabres yet…

There might have been more than alcohol in his system to have him get up multiple times from being rag dolled. It looked like Benson going after Ryan Reaves type of matchup.

The resources at the NCAA level are much higher than juniors. Let juniors be actual juniors and let kids develop in college like every other sport. A strong NCAA hockey league is much better for the NHL than a junior league. I'm a big proponent of taking this a step further. If a player is too young to play in the AHL, they're too young to be drafted. The only reason it's a thing is to protect the juniors leagues revenue.

Sounds like Luke Osburn’s year caught the attention of USAHockey. He’s been invited to the Summer Showcase this summer, which s generally camp for the WJC team. Zeimer and Kleber, who made the team last year, will also be there.

Well at least the product can’t get any worse, right? I’d imagine the whole process was a lot easier for the teams, but now they need to fix things on the tv side.

I can’t wait for the fun time when someone has two high end CHL guys and then need to pick which one goes to the AHL. Situations like the islanders having 3 first round picks come to mind. They won’t have to worry about it, it in the future it may influence how teams make those picks.

if we do it will be “sell up and move home” time in sabre land. Our arena only holds 3500!

I mean probably not, but was he too drunk to notice the size of that man. Idk I'm not a big guy, I can punch above my weight class a bit, but there's a limit. I woulda took one look at that dude and been like "sorry, we'll be off the green shortly" lol

I wonder why there is no American team named the clan…

Like did that dude really know when he started yapping he was dealing with a professional athlete whose job it was to knock people out... LOL

A lot to like about McTavish... really solid size, offensive upside... I would consider this a win I think if we could get him...

Glad to see Cliff doing so well... wonder if the Glasgow team will out sell the Sabres in tickets this year... lol... Stay tuned...

Or…

….has signed for Sheffield Steelers in the UKs EIHL for this season. in other EIHL news, Glasgow Clan are assembling a strong looking team to build on reaching playoffs last season. Clan have also sold record levels of season tickets for the upcoming season. Demand so high they have to release extra from general admission.

This is great news! Now everyone, hear me out. I've got an idea... First, we start simple...we go back in time. Then, we let Benson play in the minors one more year knowing we can get him to Rochester the following year. Then...we bring him up this year...and he's ready for his first taste of NHL action and competes for rookie of the year. I think this can work.

Oh definitely.

Senator Megan Hunts response: ***** ICE and anyone who supports them!!

The S & P reaching another record high is a distraction? I don't think they S & P works that way. Giving i bought the dip, I hope there's many distractions for years to come. I would want that no matter who was in office. It's a good thing.

Trying to distract the people from real problems.
