Timo Meier rumour - Sabres contact Sharks
Mustache of God replied to Sabres73's topic in The Aud Club
It's not as exciting as speculating how we can get a 1st round pick for flipping scandella and then ending up with a 4th rounder for him, but it'll do. -

We don't need any more 2023 2nd round draft picks...3 is enough. -

Maybe the Sharks GM, former Sabres legend Mike Grier is actually sleeper agent and this is a long con to improve the Sabres. Karlsoon + Meier for Mitts + Ben Bishop and a 2nd round pick. Who says no? -
What has Tyson Jost meant/done for the team?
Mustache of God replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
I'm really interested to see what happens next season. I get the feeling that we're going to keep Jost (RFA after this season, currently making 2M) and I can see him sliding down to anchor the 4th or "energy" line. Assuming our top 6 stays the same and KO & Girgensons aren't re-signed I can see our bottom six looking something like this: Kane/ FA/Trade - Savoie/Kulich/Ostland - VO Mitts - Jost - Krebs Jost/Mitts essentially become the replacements for KO & Girgensons - both lines have recently been very good at keeping the other team hemmed in and working the puck around the perimeter (but not generating much scoring). I can see this line providing that same type of play / energy and we'd hopefully get more offense out of our new 3rd line which I'm guessing will be VO, a kid in our system and an outside acquisition. -

To the last line, I think Asplund has played himself off his team and wont' be here past this season. I see him being packaged in a deal (if one is made). -
The only thing I really miss about Eichel was his ability to find the space to pass across the ice through 3 defenders, right on VOs stick.

Tage Thompson revenge game incoming. I've noticed that teams are making a very visible effort to contain Tage on the PP when he's lined up on the wall. I can't remember the last time he's gotten a clean one-timer off. If I were in charge of the power play I'd roll VO out on the same unit. If the other team is going to have someone stapled to Tage that should let VO get some extra space to tee off.

Chychrun feels too expensive for my taste, plus I'm more interested in us finding another Samuelsson type player to balance out Dahlin/Power. The type of player who doesn't have a sexy game but plays sound foundational defense (also the type of player who doesn't make the big $$$). I have always liked Crouse's game, he's always stuck out to me when we play them.
