  1. I consider the sixth d-man an important position. If he gets run over, your team loses.
  2. And without him isn't there a glaring hole in it? Who would be our sixth d-man? Bryson? 😩
  3. Well, its probably the best they can do.
  4. He did not handle being the number 1 goalie very well, that's for sure. Would be nice if him and Levi could somehow split the duties and provide some consistency
  5. The Buffalo Sabres will hold their annual Development Camp at LECOM Harborcenter from Monday, June 30 through Thursday, July 3. A collection of Sabres prospects will gather in Buffalo for workouts, practices and a scrimmage. All on-ice sessions are free and open to the public. The full camp roster will be announced at a later date. It will include players selected in the 2025 NHL Draft, which takes place June 27 and 28 at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles – with the Sabres operating from Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park. 2025 NHL Draft coverage: Schedule, Sabres’ projections and more Development Camp, which follows the draft each summer, introduces Sabres prospects to organizational standards and continues establishing their professional work habits. Through on- and off-ice workouts, participants begin familiarizing themselves with the Sabres’ development and performance staffs. Here’s the full schedule of on-ice sessions open to fans, all of which will take place at LECOM Harborcenter. Monday, June 30 | 1:30 – 3 p.m. | Practice Tuesday, July 1 | 9 – 10:30 a.m. | Practice Wednesday, July 2 | 10:30 a.m. – 12 p.m. | Practice Thursday, July 3 | 9:30 a.m. – 12 p.m. | Scrimmage All times are subject to change; stay tuned to Sabres.com and the Sabres’ social media channels for potential updates.
  6. He said in the pre-draft press conference that there were also several RHD in the system already. So looks like that is covered. Bringing in these defenceman makes its seem obvious he is trading Bo
  7. Timmins averaged 18:43 in ice time – well above his career average of 15:46 – in 17 games following a March trade to Pittsburgh. He had seven points (1+6) in that span and the Penguins owned a 57-percent share of shot attempts with him on the ice at 5-on-5. A native of of St. Catharines, Ont. – about 30 miles north of Buffalo – Timmins was a second-round draft pick (32nd overall) by Colorado in 2017. He’s played 159 NHL games spanning six seasons with Colorado, Arizona, Toronto and Pittsburgh. Belliveau, 22, split last season between Pittsburgh’s AHL and ECHL affiliates. The 2021 fifth-round pick has seven points (1+6) in 24 career AHL games.
  8. Absolutely nothing. It was a joke Timmins, 26, had 15 points (3+12) in 68 games last season with Toronto and Pittsburgh. The 6-foot-3, 213-pound defenseman is the second right shot added to the roster via trade in the past week, following the addition of Michael Kesselring from Utah on Thursday. (The Sabres also used their first-round draft pick on a right-shot defenseman in Radim Mrtka.) During Timmins' 5-on-5 ice time in 2024-25, his teams outscored their opponents 39-30 and held advantages in expected goals (52.2%), shot attempts (51.6%) and scoring chances (51.9%), according to Natural Stat Trick.
  9. He doesn't really check any of the boxes making us harder to play against and better on defense
  10. I think it just comes down to the "we need to be harder to play against" and not give up as many goals.
  11. Chara had a really long development curve. He wasn't the Chara that was great for a lot of years
  12. Good point. I'll just toss this out, but from the accounts we have, maybe JJP was kind of immature, so while, perhaps, we didn't get older, maybe we got more of character players in the trade. But ya, another vet probably would be a good idea
  13. KA is celebrating this landslide victory for his trade! He's touting this as proof of his superior leadership and hockey acumen! LOL
  14. Ok, ok, smart guy, I'm call a bench minor.
  15. Albert Kesselring was the General that led the very successful German defence of Italy during 1944 or so.
  16. Seems like a cool guy. His description of Doan is interesting.
  17. That's it, no, "Well it depends" craps. No, "well, I want to wait ten years and see how it plays out" garbage. Man up, (Or person up, whatever) and just vote. No one will hold your vote against you, ok?
  18. This would be fun!
  19. Not sure if this is real or just some shots taken from the James Webb telescope, but here it is:
  20. I guess a lot depends on what happens tomorrow or in the days after
