Crazy isn’t it

I mean Kane is the best player on this hockey card

Pronman and a NHL Source did a Mock Together. The NHL Source has the Sabres taking Kevin Korchinski at 9 Pronman Has Lambert at 16 Pronman Del Bel Belluz at 28 Pronman Jack Hughes at 41 Nazar and Lekkerimaki were still on the board at 9

I can mention that Malone was the next call up to Buffalo in December before He was diagnosed with Covid

They probably will have to pay the bad team tax and offer higher AAV and/or longer term for a goalie. And I will be perfectly happy with them doing so to stabilize the position for a few years. I think this was a big reason for Him Returning this Season, getting to 300 wins

5 million in Dadonov and 7.8 Million in LTIR Space

Vegas opens up around 13 Million in Cap Space

Every Combine that has been in Buffalo I’m very easy to forget

So the thread doesn’t have the potential to turn into a political quagmire, it isn’t Covid

Speaking of wrong Brothers, 32 Thoughts did a segment about the 2016 Draft, namely about the Sabres choice of Alex Nylander. Marek mentioned that the decision was down to two players and that the Sabres spoke with both of them the day of the draft. They were Sergechev and Nylander. Marek mentioned the Sabres Rumored Aversion to Russian Players. GMTM listened to His Swedish Scout Andres Forsberg who came with Him from Ottawa. The scout as integral in drafting Mika Zibanejad, Erik Karlsson and Robin Lehner for Ottawa. He knew the Nylander Family well and convinced Murray Alex was the way to go. Hopefully Forsberg continues at His 75% Hit Rate moving forward with the Sabres.

He said in His Mid Term rankings the final list should be out around a week before the draft, so around July 1st I imagine.

I would be more upset if Adams and Company’s Original Plan for Goaltending had been Anderson, Tokarski, Dell and UPL. Per Lance Lysowski the team did reach out to the Top UFA Goaltenders on the market and the Team was rebuffed by all of them. The Sabres were not and probably still are not a destination for most UFAs. Lysowski also mentioned they were not willing to Ullmark’s Demands, however Ullmark’s Camp kept moving the goalposts giving a strong indication that Linus didn’t want to be here. This comes after all indications at the TDL that Ullmark was They didn’t have a goaltender to include in a trade with Arizona for Adin Hill. They weren’t trading a First and a D Prospect for One Year of Darcy Kuemper And they were not a contender for Alex Nedeljkovic. Yes the results of His Goaltending Plan were horrible, but not for lack of trying. I do believe that the Organization realized that there was going to be a huge drop in attendance and revenues, resulting in the directive of economic, efficient and effective being implemented. However Adams was allowed to expand the Front Office namely The Analytics and Scouting Department, which should put the team in a much better position moving forward. Adams has begun restocked the prospect pipeline and The Front Office appears to have better development plan for prospects particularly in Rochester. All signs pointing to competency in the organization. The highest priority this offseason is stabilizing the goaltending, if it’s not done correctly then concerns about the competency of the Front Office will grow exponentially. And if You want to compare where this team is to building a submarine, it’s not even close to being a finished product, so I wouldn’t worry about whether or not the plans still contain a screen door until TC in September.
