Who makes the jump to Rochester next season?
DarthEbriate replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
The other person I see as a very real possibility to join the Amerks (if Hinostroza is re-signed and Quinn looks good in camp) is Bjork. No team in the league is going to pick up his $1.6M contract. -

Definitely a possibility. Every team has one or two of those tweeners that could get nabbed. It depends on when he's sent down (that last wave of preseason cuts?) and if anyone else has had a recent RHD injury that'll put a regular on LTIR for half the season. The Sabres had Joker and Samuelsson missing games early and picked up Wolanin for a game. Then Wolanin ended up right back with the Kings. -

This is exacerbated by Arttu leaving Rochester this coming offseason. I believe Fitzgerald is back in ROC to start next season once a veteran NHL RHD is acquired/UFA-signed. He can be a good 7/8 call-up if injuries hit, but it's best if he plays in the AHL rather than warming the press box seat in Buffalo. The Amerks already signed Knoepke to an AHL-level deal, but I imagine the Sabres will also sign 1-2 college UFAs after the Frozen Four completes to help fill out the Amerks roster for next season. -
GDT: 4/5/2022, Hurricanes @ Sabres, 7pm on ESPN+ 📺 WGR 📻
DarthEbriate replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
Same here. I do watch some other NHL games and as a result of searching for what's live for this thread I'm watching a bit of the Twins final spring training tuneup... but otherwise the ESPN+ is just for the Sabres. -

Not everything. ESPN+ blacks out your local market live (but you can watch the replay). They also don't carry TNT or NHLNetwork games live or on replay. -

The flipside is ESPN+ has so much more content than NHL.tv did, pre/post-games notwithstanding. Right now there's pre-season MLB baseball, NCAA baseball, Indian Premier League cricket, NCAA women's lacrosse, and Sportscenter... all rolling along at 1030AM PT/130PM ET. The intriguing thing will be playoff games. I'm not sure if ESPN+ will show NHL playoffs live. -

Doing some morning game re-watching, it has to have something to do with an agreement on the network level. MSG doesn't show pre- or post-games (BUF, NYR, NYI, NJD). But Bally (MIN and NSH) both show post-game broadcasts for a bit. MSG would need to agree to it/negotiate it in some capacity. -

MSG definitely needs to get it in gear and show their pre-game show on ESPN+. And ESPN+ needs to get time markers in their playback feature of intermissions, goals, and penalties. And a quick-launch app. -
Devon Levi watch, update: he's returning to college
DarthEbriate replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
--Levi, no more training do you require. Already have you, that which you need... to lead the Sabres to the playoffs. ++Then I am a goalie... --No... not yet. One thing remains: a contract. You must sign a contract. Then, only then, a goalie will you be. And sign the contract you will. Heh! But first, we must eat. Another college season! Good fun! Yes, yes.
