I'll also add that Skinner scored 40, 33, and 35 in non-Krueger years and is scoring at a 30 goal pace this year.
30 goals? We don’t need no 30 stinking goals.

He has a starters job.
Ullmark left due to his father's death pushing him to want to leave
UPL hopefully will have no such issue.
I‘m unsure which “he” you are speaking of, but either one had/has a starters job with the Sabres.
We don’t know exactly why Ulmark left. It could’ve been the death of his father. But, one thing is for sure. UPL could’ve also very well think he needs a change of scenery. One where he doesn’t have to put up with the Levi ball washing.

Well, next year even with a 4mil contract for UPL and 2 mil for a backup we'd be at 6M total which is effectively dead center.
If you would UPL, would you resign with the Sabres? I’m prepared for Ulmark 2.0.

Been thinking about this thread for days. I don’t buy the whole approach of comparing the Sabres to bottom dwellers. True, they all have losing in common. But there’s fundamental flaws in most of these teams. There are teams out there, no matter what they do, and they will still lose. Some say they are “cursed” or ownership or whatever. Who knows. But these are certainly not the teams we should use as a yardstick for progress. If an “educated” opinion believes they are, they prove they are likely part of the problem, not the solution. As such, their opinion should be ignored.

I agree. The video is incredible. Traffic was flowing fairly briskly, then luckily thinned out to almost none right before the ship hit.

Can somebody also please tell this to: Power, Cozens, Thompson, Quinn, etc. I seriously question if this team has a strength and conditioning coach. They all look like they're trying to become swimmers vs. hockey players.
Good point. Maybe someone should go to Cabo with them and help them select the right things to eat. Or make them carry their luggage instead of rolling it.

I’m a big Benson fan and still think he’s a prospect, despite playing in the NHL. He’s only 18 and has shown flashes of brilliance this year. Compared to anyone else, he’s going to be the prospect that takes the next big step. Dude has to put in a great offseason though. Needs to get bigger and stronger.

What the hell was he thinking. He goes for the slash but swings upward. It’s just so damn stupid.
He should’ve got 10+ games.

One other note: I'm honestly a little disappointed with Kulich and Rosen. I thought both would take a bigger step forward this season. I was hoping one or both would put together a JJP or Quinn type AHL season, but it hasn't happened.
They are acting like they are already on the big club already. It’s odd we are not only seeing players take a large step back on the Sabres, but the Amerks too. More evidence some housecleaning needs to happen.

I just got back from a business trip in Prague. Very pretty city. Probably picking it because it’s cheaper than a larger city.

I agree with most of this post but emphatically not the bolded. Please do not shout down hockey opinions that you disagree with. No player on this misbegotten team is immune from criticism.
It I “shouted it down”, I would’ve bolded it or maybe used the word “emphatically”. Trust me, the irony is not lost on me. But, sorry for having an opinion differing from another opinion. What was I thinking?

Yeah, maybe he could be down in the CHL helping change diapers.

Was Okposo just a big vibe killer?
I don’t agree with this at all. It should stop. Okie was well-respected in the locker room. Maybe too much “best friend Dad” vibes. When the Sabres shipped him out, it sent a messages. Dad’s gone because you guys sucked. Look what you did. So, no more bull *****. It sent a message. In addition, perhaps the biggest message, with Mitts being shipped out, was “look, you could be next. Party is over.” Unfortunately, I don’t think Tage got the memo.

Not to mention how many leads they've pissed away. We're 3-0 up on Cuse last night and barely hung on 3-2. Very odd team this season.
And some of these players want to be competing for spots on the big club next year. Levi is playing his part. The rest (ie Rosen, Kulich) better wake the F up.

This is fine. Will probably decrease the number of Laughs fans. Will not impact people who actually buy the tickets to go to the games.

Tage isn’t close. Last year was a career year and won’t be repeated.
Maybe not, but I expect him to at least get back to his 21-22 level then. If he can’t, either he’s perennially injured or he needs a new coach.

This is bizzare. Is Adams supposed to get respect and credit for this? I would respect him a lot more if he could hire better coaches, do things to improve the team after 4 years on the job, and maybe even keep our best players.
4D chess. We’ll attract good players by them knowing that when we suck and decide to jettison them, they’ll be going to great teams.

7 career fights. 3 in the NHL.
All of them give off big Dylan Cozens vibes. Fishbowl incoming.
https://www.hockeyfights.com/players/24753I see a fight against a former Tank Commander. This could work.

I get it. But don’t like it. Casey will be a PPG player on the Avs. We better know how to develop this guy.

The population is not dropping fast. It even appears to be ticking up after a decade of very modest declines year by year. Same for Erie Co. It's not the 70s and 80s anymore.
And this is why. Let’s hope they are hockey fans.

So far from reading this thread: GM didn’t go out and get competant goaltending during the offseason and they’ve also had a bunch of injuries and players not matching what they did last year. But apparently Ruff would have different results here…

Players that should NOT be on this team next year

This is great and all, but “choices” depends on availability. KA can dream all he wants, but he can only choose from who is available. For example, there’s no way Byram was available at the time the Chychrun trade went down. Byram’s value was too high at that point.
Besides, there’s that little pesky detail that KA said on WGR that he wanted Byram coming back in a potential trade with COL for Eichel. So, basically he was KA’s first choice.
