Really can't wait for the Sabres season to start after that one...

Happy Birthday!

Annual expectations thread 2023/24: #27 Devon Levi
Mustache of God replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
35 Shutouts, 45 goals, 90 assists. -
Losing the Bills would be worse for the city than losing the Sabres. That being said, if I had to choose I'm picking the Sabres. Sports are entertainment after all and if I had to choose to be entertained 17 times a year vs 82 I'm picking 82.

This essentially washes out us going 0-15 on nationally televised games - unless we have some overlap between the two.

Annual expectations thread 2023/24: #77 JJ Peterka
Mustache of God replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
I think we'll see more consistency to his game with less roughness around the edges. I'm not expecting a "breakthrough" year, that comes in one more season. -
Annual expectations thread 2023/24: #78 Jacob Bryson
Mustache of God replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
I've been saying for years that as long as Bryson is on the team we will not be a playoff caliber team. He should only be called up if injuries start to mount. -
Sabres Trade Ilya Lyubushkin to Anaheim for a 2025 4th Round Pick
Mustache of God replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Reading this thread makes me happy seeing that Jokijarju is now a 3rd paining defensemen. I feel more comfortable having him have to slot up in the top two pairings in the event of injury instead of Boosh. -
Sabres Trade Ilya Lyubushkin to Anaheim for a 2025 4th Round Pick
Mustache of God replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
I'll always remember his OT goal vs Tampa and Razors ensuing reaction. We had a crowded blue line and this feels like Adam trying to do right with him knowing he wasn't in the plans. Also a bit of a cap dump? Wasn't he making around $4M? -
If i were GM for a day I probably wouldn't make any trades, because from listening to GMKA it sounds like trades take time to reach the finish line and I feel like I wouldn't get anything accomplished. Instead, I'd probably head down to the Sabres Store and grab as much ***** as I could carry. I'd then ask the ice crew to cut the ice and then host a scrimmage and spend most of the day playing hockey. I'd wrap the day up by planting a few hidden microphones throughout the GM's office and locker rooms so we could listen in on the actual trades GMKA will be working on in the future.

RIP RJ. Nobody else ever did it like you. I wish we could have got you to the playoffs one more time.

Eventually something will have to give and the GM will need to make a decision to move some of these forward prospects. In the past 3 drafts we've selected 8 Forwards in rounds 1 or 2. That's a massive amount of talent that will be competing to make the roster and we already have the following players locked up through 25-26: Skinner, Thompson, Cozens, and Tuch. I'm also expecting extensions for Quinn, Peterka, Krebs and maybe Mitts. That leaves 4-5 roster spots open solely for our forward prospects and that doesn't account for acquiring players via trade or signings, or later round prospects who might make a developmental leap. Assuming we have long term extensions for Dahlin and Power, along with Muel we'll have half of our defense locked down long term. I'd imagine we'll see some forward prospects shipped out to bring in solid defensive help. The best part is with Dahlin and Power, we don't need to get any splashy high octane D-men, we really just need the non-sexy guys who can play solid shut down roles. It's a crowded bus and that's a great problem to have. 2023: 1. Benson #13 2. Walberg #39 2022: 3. Savoie #9 4. Östlund #16 5. Kulich #28 2021: 6. Rosen #14 7. Poltapov #33 8. Kisakov #53

Best Vacation Destination a Tank of Gas or Less from Buffalo
Mustache of God replied to JoeSchmoe's topic in The Aud Club
I randomly decided to put together a last minute road trip at the end of August, two nights in the 1000 Islands and then two nights in Ottawa. Do you have any other recommendations in Ottawa? -
Less than 2 months for some hockey stuff to look at!

Trading Mike f'n Wilson for Rhett Warner and a 5th round pick (which became Ryan Miller).

Sabres sign 2023 Second Round Pick Anton Wahlberg to ELC
Mustache of God replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Interesting, so for these types of players is it more of an act of good faith of the Sabres saying, "we believe in your development" so he's some additional financial incentive for you to put the work in? Curious to know the terms of these contracts. Another question if anyone knows the answer, I know if a player plays 9 games it "burns a year" of eligibility on their rookie contract, this would have nothing to do with this? Assuming this guy doesn't touch NHL ice during the life of this contact would his next one pretty much be a standard rookie contract? -

Does that mean he'll be playing in Rochester? -
GDT: Sabres Prospect Camp: 3v3 Tournament, Sabres.com, July 6, 2023
Mustache of God replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
It was a bad attempt at a pun....Naudeu , not doing... I don't know. He seems like he's been around for awhile but doesn't get talked about much. -
By virtue of being a goalie, yes, he is crazy. "Sports should be an escape from all of our terrible problems" - tell that to some of the Ukrainian Olympians who have been killed defending their country from the invasion. I think it makes sense to ban Russian athletes from the Olympics due to 1. The war and 2. The history of repeated doping scandals. You'll never get them to condemn the war as those are state sanctioned athletes and doing so would put them and their families at serious risk.

More like not doing anything to make this team, right? -
Update Jack Quinn has started skating again
Mustache of God replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Does this create an opportunity to keep Savoie here as the 13th forward and get him some NHL experience? -
MUST WIN

6 of the first 9 games are at home. This team better get their home woes out of the way early...although I'm also sick of hot starts that fizzle out. So I don't know how to feel about this.
