Lots of speculation here on SS. It’s the summer after 14 straight disappointing seasons.

Removed it entirely so we don't have to worry about it. Let's just say "Kulich is important to the offense and here's what the numbers look like..." Also it might have gotten buried but I put Kulich at 23g, 20a for the 2025 season.

No, but I am saying a Majority support him.

I think that is at least a very interesting question to think over. As for who will have more points? Probably Utah, they have better GT and better coaching. Which forward group will produce more? I'd give Buffalo the adv. What roles would you say are there for the forwards. How would you categorize Buffalo's?

Your first line with Tage on the middle is very appealing.

I don't understand where you are coming from. At the event, there is an announcement that a local bank will continue with its sponsorship in the naming rights to the arena. It's a standard event involving the business side of the franchise. In today's world of generating income all arenas and stadiums have income generating sponsorships. So why are you so upset with how this particular event was handled? Are you implying that a less vocal majority support Mark?

Not without a new coaching staff and a goalie, imo.

A vocal minority don't like Mark.

If you look closely you can see the oil and slime oozing out of every pore of Mark's body.

After 14 years of missing the playoffs it’s already on fire. As for Sparta IF is more possible with a capable top 6 forward added to the group than what appears to be right now

Oh in terms of that I have no idea. I haven't followed them so am not familiar with how they develop young players as a whole. Don't even know which AHL team is there's. What I do like is how they are constructing their roster. Seems a better balance and better defined roles. let me ask you this. Who will have more points end of next season? Utah or Buffalo?

Stop living in fear.

If we are firmly in a spot at the deadline, go ahead. Otherwise if they trade it, miss the playoffs and then their pick wins the lottery the city will likely burn.

Nazim Kadri... Nazim Kadri.... We are waiting in the wings for you (waiting in the wings for you) You could never back down, you never learned to take your time... Oh, Naaazzziiiimmm Kaaaadrrriii (Naaazzziiiimmm Kaaaadrrriii) When Buffalo sings for you Will they know what you overcame? Will they know you rewrote the game? The Sabres will never be the same, oooohhhh... The team is in the harbor center now, see if you can spot him... Another immigrant coming up from the bottom His enemies destroyed his rep, the Leafs forgot him... We fought with him Me? I played with him Me? I trusted him Me? I loved him And me(Kevyn Adams)? I'm the damn fool that didn't sign him! There's a million things he hasn't done But just you waaaaaiiiit.... What's your name, man? Nazzzimmmm Kaaaddrriii!

Maybe a better title would have been is Kulich the lynchpin for the offense. There I might agree.

I'm trying to wrap my head around this. What exactly is the problem you have with Key Bank signing up for ten more years of naming rights? Isn't the joke, as you put it, more on Key Bank? Obviously they aren't worried.

I'd be over the moon if he scores 20 goals and ends with 35-40 points. I expect 15-15 from him. And will be happy with that in his sophomore season. And No, a 43 point season does not get them in the playoffs. Coaching D a goaltending will undo them regardless

To quote Sparta, "if"

I might be in the minority, but I still consider him more of a winger than a center. I think the team really needs him to hit the 20g minimum mark to make enough of an impact, which IMHO his shot is good enough to do. That being said, I'd still like to see the team make a deal to get a 2C.

Why??? If they make the playoffs it will be 17-25th pick. They’re not making it with this lineup and if they don’t do something to make the playoffs, the fan base may never come back

Fair deuce. But regardless of the reason why, he WAS the guy that was playing with Thompson down the stretch and if Norris and Thompson don't click, he's likely the "next man up."

And to be clear, Kulich doesn’t belong there ahead of McLeod

No one doubts that. Kind of curious what you think Utah has done differently in terms of development choices.

I would trade those 6 for their 6 in a heartbeat.
