he's holding onto his opinion on that one too. Still prefers Hughes over Power - said the Powers points are mostly against weak opponents and isn't impressed with his defensive game. Though, I do like listening to his Scouching live thing he does weekly. you hear a lot about prospects who dont get a lot of publicity .

I would say 100% yes. No reason for them not to be high on him

Just watched the game. UPL should have been 1st, 2nd and 3rd star. was left out to dry numerous times in the 3rd. Huge saves. Hopefully some of them are available on Twitter. Still needs to find consistency but was great to see him play well and get the win

I agree, though they took Quinn, who isnt a speedster. the Lambert vs Geekie would definitely be an interesting debate

too early to say but you were definitely off of where they would be drafted. However, if they turn into players who should have been drafted top 10, you should wear that as a badge of honour Or Honor (depending on where you live) I can see Lambert but not Geekie - can you expand?

ill regurgitate from Scouching from last Thursday....he calls him Fine, not involved Defensively , unreliable passing and moving the puck at the KHL level. Says he should still be a top 10 /15 pick and has the skill to rip apart the MHL. Not really sold on him overall.

no offence, but your predictions about the draft haven’t been very accurate

Why unlikely? Lambert, Geekie and Cooley would fall into that 4-10 range I would guess who knows. , maybe Savoie falls too cause of “size”

Kinda is. They are already better than at least 3 forwards on the roster. If you only thought about the current season , they’d all be in Buffalo. teams have to think 3 to 5 years ahead. Player development, cap issues all have to be considered.

Should Krebs, Quinn and JJ be on the Sabres right now ?

You may already know this but Russian games are available on YouTube. Would have been great to see them play vs their peers though

How long until Samuelsson is called up ?

Good question about playing making abilities. maybe Liger has a more educated opinion than mine ?

Jack Campbell after the leafs can’t afford to sign him

Russia has released their world juniors camp roster. Unfortunately no Poltapov or Kisakov but Dman Novikov is listed (7th rd 2021)

I would argue that Savoeis a huge part of that, he’s the driver of the bus. But you are right, it certainly doesn’t hurt being on a stacked team plus Wright missed a whole year to covid shutting down the OHL.

100%. Probably add Dahlin to this list.

Do both Miller and Hagg get traded? Opening the door for Power and Samuelsson later this season would leave a very very Young D corps

Do people still hate Tage? Just curious

Ones better offensively and the other is better all round. IF there is one guy who can dethrone Wright for the 1 pick it’s Savoie IF we just looked at 21/22 season - who is the better player ? I would land on Savoie

be a goldfish and forget about the previous games...advice straight from Ted Lasso. Enjoy game to game

I've been thinking about this today. Am i crazy in thinking that I would rather Savoie than Wright? Wright is undoubtedly a better all round player than Savoie. Wright is a leader and will one day be captain of his NHL team. However, for the Sabres, I think they could use the guy with the most offensive upside and thats Savoie. My thinking is that Cozens checks a lot of the same boxes that Wright does, making Wright redundant to a point.

I’m with you. I enjoyed the game. Sucks how it lost. I’m watching game to game. I’m honestly not sure of their record. I think they are slightly below .500 and maybe bottom 10? but I promised myself I wouldn’t look at the standings this season , nor tankathon. So far I’ve succeeded been entertained in all but 2 or 3 games , so I’m pretty happy about that the bottom line is they are severely overmatched against all but 4 or 5 teams in the league On top of that they have dealt with injuries to key guys

Watched another Ice game Savoie is the most talented offensive player in the CHL IMHO In this clip 1:15. Vision 1:30. Shot 3:00 Hands

Sometimes you just have to laugh 1 guy giving effort and 4 watching
