  1. Isn’t that dude panned by everyone?
  2. Now go get Guentzal and Tkachuk. Twenty game win streak here we come.
  3. Been very steady this season unlike his younger more hyped teammates. I’d love for him to get a look the rest of the season.
  4. Casey was panned by every Sabres fan everywhere what a year, maybe 18 months ago. Now we hate the Sabres for trading him for a current player who is better. Ok. Not to mention, 90% of their top prospects are forwards. Benson and Savoie could be Casey’s equal by next season. They will most likely eclipse Mitts shortly thereafter. Noah Östlund will be here as early as next season to compete for a middle 6 center role. Kulich and Rosen are coming. I don’t want to wait. I’m hoping adds a couple gritty forwards that can compete for top 9 roles.
  5. That doesn’t come with coaching it comes inherently in the player. The Sabres need more of them.
  6. Byram and it’s not close. He’s a 4th overall pick, top pairing dman.
  7. Prescient
  8. I wouldn’t dismiss Krebs as our 3C. I think he gets a shot at it (if Granato stops putting him on the 4th line).
  9. That’s really more of an indictment of Tage & Dylan’s defensive prowess than Casey’s own zone acumen.
  10. I mean there are a lot of cobwebs in inky’s large melon. I triple checked, seems legit…
  11. Going from the Avs to the Sabres has to be a major kick in the weenie. Can’t imagine going from Colorado to Rochester.
  12. Starting to get major FOMO with all the deals coming in. ☹️
  13. Certainly not his contract
  14. I know the org is big on fostering a winning culture starting in Rochester. I’m curious how Adams balances that with getting a look at the youngins.
  15. There is a lot to unpack here. I’m never concerned about what athletes make. They don’t pay themselves, he earned that contract. We also need to remember much of his time here was with Jack Eichel, who no one confuses as a team first guy. Kyle didn’t ask for the C, it landed on him by default. He also inherited a team of super soft, mentally and physically, players who don’t understand what it takes to win. Should Kyle have been able to get Victor Olofsson to skate through a wall for the team? Maybe. Should he have gone to mgmt and told Adams you aren’t going to win with players A,B & C aka Chris Drury telling Darcy that Satan had to go? Probably.
  16. I mean teams have sat players likely to be traded at the deadline for a game or two prior.
