I think any conversation would have started with our unprotected 1st plus Byram or Power then 1 or 2 other assets. The draft pick would give them an extra shot at McKenna probably. I don't see why we do it without a commitment.

Appert's last three years with the Amerks. 112-79-20-9. (.575) Won 4 of 7 playoff series. Made the final 4 in 22/23. His first year was shortened by COVID.

The SJS have drafted forwards the past 5 years. Centers 4 of the 5. If Misa hits, they will not want to pay three centers top dollar. If this team faces an ultimatum from Rasmus, then Smith would be an ideal return and what the Sabres need in terms of a top line scoring. Would hate to part with a blue chip D-man but I agree, the return cannot be lottery picks.

TP can transfer KA to his FLA estate to manage his 🌴 🌴🌴🌴& not pay NY 💸💸💸. Added bonus: they can talk more than daily!! 🎉🎉🎉

I want a proven coach and assume Lindy may want to move on. If it is a love connection, need to let Lindy & GM look at all positions on coaching staff and build a real staff.

Friedman mentioned on Saturday Headlines that there is a lot of noise around Buffalo, but he does not have anything concrete as of now

How many teams are carrying 3 right now? It’s something that seems tho have popped up a bit more in recent years. I don’t know if it’s the lower quality of goaltending around the league or waiver rules, but there’s been more of it. I know Carolina has 3 right now. And if you want high quality hockey coverage, you should check out what they have going here. I turned it on randomly a day or two ago and they were talking about potential trade targets for Anderson. The host seriously offered up Buffalo and Tage Thompson as an option. This guy is officially the Wookiee of Carolina coverage.

At least they asked, and they probably gauged the interest level in signing to be sure. I'd love to know the package offered, if it got that far.

I think the Sabres interest was probably very little. Sure there might have been a phone call but Hughes coming here would have been the same as if he stayed in Vancouver. No way he would sign here so it would have been crazy to give up anything meaningful to rent him.

That was PEAK Levi! The goal LV scored on him in regulation should not have even counted because the ref failed to blow his whistle when Levi had it covered up, and the Phantoms just dug it out from under him.

Intriguing

I just think it’s always good form to credit the work you are trying to pass off as your own.

Zelda sez thanks for all the luv and good wishes

New equipment manager for the Jacksonville Ice? 😉

You rang?

I could accept Appert with an interim tag I suppose, with an extended audition, will the Sabres evaluate other candidates. I would hope they'd wait until the season is completely over and they have a chance to see which coaches are available before settling on Appert (yes, settling is what it feels like)>

Well played, @Carmel Corn!

Different than the old Chuck Norris division.

Interesting. What's Sabres record without Dahlin in the lineup over the last 2 years ?

He had 4 points in 5 games when Chicago unloaded him. That timing was a bit odd.

Ummmmm The Sabres should have Tuch in that category if the ask is 7 years at $11 million plus

3 consecutive start for Levi where he made at least 37 saves. Maybe he's out of that slump he was in.

Aren't they winless in their last 12 games without him on the lineup? 0-10-2 to be exact. You can't tell me he isn't a difference maker.

EIGHT Amerks couldn't score in the SO. Levi finally gave up a goal on the 8th shot he faced. LV - 2 Amerks - 1
