I’m trying to contain my enthusiasm but I haven’t been this geeked about a prospect since Mogilny defected. Obviously, there was reason to be excited about Rasmus, Sam and Jack but the expectations were so high; those guys almost had no chance to live up to it. The Quinn pick was scoffed at by the Rossi fanbois. Seeing this kid surpass everyone’s expectation has been invigorating.

Literally anyone is better than Eakin. I’m hoping there is a GM out there willing to part with a smelly used hockey bag for him.

I had hope for Asplund. At his best he’s a decent bottom six forward. At his current level of play, yikes. R2 might be the very definition of a tweener. Just not good enough for the NHL but lights up AHL players.

Which is why the Sabres need to keep adding skill. Krebs, Power, Quinn, Peterka, will make a big difference. Make a trade or two to balance the roster and we got something. There are at least half a dozen players on the Sabres who aren’t NHL players.

I’m not sure how many times I wanna see him get walked in an NHL game before I think it’s too many but we are nearing that place. Casey and Jacob are not NHL defenseman.

I unfortunately took my family to see the game. This sounded fun.

Amerks beat Marlies 5-3. Murray with 1g 3a, R2 had 2 goals and an assist.

You’ve had succulent tiddies much longer. oh you meant season tickets

Pucks go in off ball sacks. They’ll win some.

I don’t marvel at all. He’s exactly the player we thought he was. The worst skater in the NHL. Hell, at least Hayden hits and fights. Eakin doesn’t even do that. If Adams had some input into signing Eakin, which I still dispute, they now have the guys on staff to laugh Kevyn out of the room if he asks any stupid questions like, should we bring in Milan Lucic?

Ralph was above Kevyn in the org structure. Eakin was his guy.

I can’t imagine why this guy has a problem with the seats at the arena

I know Kevyn was a party to it but Eakin was Ralph’s guy. Let’s not forget that important fact.

Hoping there are some hockey trades to be had. Maybe even get someone at the deadline we can pencil into the lineup next season. Team needs another vet or two depending on who they lose in the next 3 months

Yes

I think they were reading the headlines a bit. They stopped working and doing the things that made them competitive.

I smell a SS meet up coming

Great location too

Kyle is from Minnesota?

Where are the lines listed?

Unless something really changes, I highly doubt it. He’s not even a good pest. Teams barely pay him mind. Offensively he’s offensive.

I’d really like a little more jam in the lineup. Less Hiney Stroka and Olofsson more Cozens and Samuelsson types. Get your RHD that hits and sticks up for teammates, get a vet forward or two that play hard. Asplund can go as well. Let’s get rid of the waify small middle of the road skill guys and replace them with bigger aggressive hard to play against guys. I’m not advocating trading Jack Quinn for Cal Clutterbuck but any of the aforementioned guys need to be replaced by some guys that hit and fight and have a modicum of skill.

Hadn’t heard about Jeff’s contract being an issue before. Interesting.

I was saying…
