Exactly , being in Rochester is not the only way to develop your talent. go look at most AHL rosters and I think you will find most teams are void of A level prospects

I agree. Just wondering if there is any thought of getting them out of Russia “while they can”

Doing a little digging. Askarov didn’t have KHL contract. poltapov is signed through 24/25 Kisakov is un-signed. I’m assuming the Sabres could bring him to AHL next year

Askarov signed a contract with the Nashville AHL team. I would have liked for someone to ask if this was something the Sabres are looking at doing to Poltapov and Kisakov not the elite talent that Askarov is but both are important pieces

Agreed There is not a draft to move up. Could be the best players who come out of this draft aren’t picked in the top 5

That’s HUUUGGEEE. 25 mins a night for Samuelsson. Biggest issue for Amerks has just been resolved for almost half the game

2 of the following: Zadorov Gudbranson Manson Murphy or Subban whomever they think will be the best fit on ice and off 2 depth forwards - Vinny and ??? No one to block the paths of JJ and Quinn Jack Campbell would be interesting but he’s probably looking for term plus it would weaken the leafs

Recency bias will vault him much higher. My guess is that he is gonna skyrocket up the draft boards .

Who’s interested in a center? kid had an amazing u18 vs kids his age rather than vs men Could be a prime target the 8 - 10 slot

Sabres Lottery odds Their pick: 1st. 5% 2nd 5.4% 9th 64.4% 10th 23.5% 11th 1.7% Vegas Pick 16th 99% Gonna be adding a couple of more nice pieces to the organization

That was awesome! Beautiful, perfect way to end RJs career. So pumped for this team! Let’s fill the barn once again for this team, next season and make some damn noise both on the ice and in the stands !!!

New NHL SHL agreement “However, there is one significant change that warrants a closer look. Under the old agreement, players drafted in the second round or later that are also signed in Sweden had to be at least 21 before they could be sent to the AHL. If they were younger than that, they had to be returned to their Swedish team. In the new agreement, that threshold has been increased to 24. Any player from Sweden who signs an NHL contract will now be subject to the new agreement while anyone that signed before the announcement will be under the old rules.

I thought I read the new agreement is that non first round picks can’t play in the AHL until they turn 24. Was originally 21

Let’s go Sabres. No dud on RJ’s last night !!!

Nice to see my son JJ get a hat trick in his last ever regular season game in the AHL

Hopefully the last time they have a replacement level goalie start for them for many years to come Smart move by Sabres - save all their goals for RJ’s last game

Probably an unpopular opinion but I think Jack will be much much better next year, with an off-season to train That being said , it’s no skin off my elbow if he struggles

Probably right.

Now that the Amerks season is toast Bring up Quinn for the final 2 games

marlies win in OT. Gonna take a miracle

How about sign the flames bottom pair ? both are UFA’s Dahlin Samuelsson Power Joker Zadorov Gudbranson Nice mix of size and skill , youth and vet with a touch of mean

2-1 Hawks

It will be interesting to hear an update he’s now killing penalties for them, so maybe he’s improved. thanks for clarifying it came from the coach.

I think at times he jumps to offence and leaves the defensive zone in anticipation of a turnover and looking to create an odd man rush. Overall, I absolutely love the kid.

I’m 100% sure he is ready for it. He needs to progress into the NHL and not stagnate in AHL Plus he will grow along with the other young players on the team
