  1. Quick look at AHL goaltenders shows an undrafted Clay Stevenson leading the league in most categories with Hershey.

    Old friend Erik Portillo 12-6 2.45gaa .923 sav% and 4 pims is being given the year down there even though his parent team is struggling bad right now. 

    Sabres goaltenders do not appear on the list

    Let's see, our GM's motto is to do the absolute minimum and take the least amount of risk with FAs.  

    Thus I expect 

    1) UPL/Levi to be the goalies next season

    2) Defense - with 5 guys under contract and a 6th (Joki) an RFA, I expect more of the same with one depth signing.

    3) Forwards - 8 are under contract - Skinner, Thompson, Tuch, Cozens, Quinn, JJP, Greenway and Benson.  Mitts and Krebs are RFA.  He'll re-sign Robinson and promote at least 1 of Savoie, Rosen, or Kulich.  Those 12 will be the forwards for 2024/25 with again one FA depth signing.

    Don't you feel better already about next season?  Didn't think so!  

     

    So, nothing lol

    Adams could bring up the AHL guys and have an all AHL 4th line, see who rises to the top.

  3. How done are the Sabres this season? 

    How many seasons has it been? Where's the urgency to fix it? 

    Who's next in the pipeline? Anybody saving this team?

    Are the Sabres as an organization putting in full effort to win or has it become about stockpiling draftpicks and prospects to admire while they ascend through the ranks in search of their dream.

    Is it their dream? For most of them, yeah it probably is but do they all have that passion to achieve it? 

    These are just a few questions I'm bouncing around in my head trying to answer but there are no good answers right now.

    Everything has turned to *****. This team needs some changes this offseason.

    Waiting any longer is unacceptable imo.

    BTW - I thought it well known amongst the gentle men & women on SabreSpace that I am an unserious, twisted, fun time, meme driven poser.

    No POSER, not HOSER.
     

    I am also unappreciated (for some odd reason I cannot fathom!) for my weak tea’d shallow ‘hockey acumen’ on the appreciation thread.

    My bad man.

    Didn't mean to piss in ur cheerios.

    I enjoy your style, my reaction has more to do with the state of the Sabres and my own misery in it all. 

    That and I'm getting tired of prospects.

    I'm in need of NHL players right now like the Sabres should be.

  5. Honestly. Since I got more interested in prospects and the draft the team has become more of a disappointment. 

    I enjoy watching these kids journey to becoming NHL players but when your team is losing, almost everything involved with waiting for prospects to get to the NHL sucks.

  6. This is more like the unserious draft thread since we already have one and you included the tankathon link to fantasize about draft position. 

    It's unfortunate that this season has come to this point, before February again. 

    What's another high end prospect gonna do anyways?

    I totally agree.  I'd love to see the Sabres record when our in experienced coaching staff goes up against what are considered top NHL coaches - especially those who are defensive minded.   I'd guess they have a .300 or less pts % 

     

    Keep Donnie or not, at the very least I think they need some different coaches.

    Not from the Sabres development staff. 

    Some former players w pedigree would be nice.
