I like the vibe in his press conference's / presser's and I'm liking his fit on the roster. While I'm not sure what all the issues are with his personality, I like him in Buffalo as of yet.

He's a John Madden type guy to me. Plays a two way game, can kill a penalty and draw down the middle. He's a fine fourth line option. I liked him in College.

Hm, no bueno for Crawford. I hope it's nothing too serious.

Nope, Originally born in Rochester, lived in Webster, NY until 2016, and relocated. Tired of snow. I've bled Sabres B&G since 1984. Thompson, has the tools and a decent shot. He's just shown nothing to me, that he'll be consistent or has the mental edge on that side. In addition, he's starting to seem very injury prone. I'm hoping for a Stafford like inconsistent forward, but I've completely blanked out the entire O'Reilly trade outside of possibly Ryan Johnson.

2021 1st round selection, Casey Mittelstadt, Mattias Samuelsson, conditional 2023 2nd if he re-signs.

Or a major bust, which is more likely.

So much more excited for Cozens than I am Quinn. Though if Cozens can usurp Staal after one season and Quinn can come in and play in the top nine that will be productive. Cozens has the size, the moxy and the ability to be a Jeff Carter type player. The more I watch him the more I see him do creative things, and also having the ability to score in multiple ways. Szie, speed and character. Yes, yes, yes. I still want to see what Casey has to show in camp. I want that kid so badly to make this roster and push some players out of the team 😄. Aka Eakin. If you can make Eakin a 4th line center, I'll feel a lot better about that terrible signing.

That was a great show of skill and precision around the net. I love this kids game.

To me Lundell and Rossi more are pests on both sides of the puck. In addition, analytically speaking they are elite in comparison to Quinn. I like Quinn, but not over at least 3-4 players. IMO.

Reinhart, easily, and yes, it's not close.

A much more polished and promising prospect than one we drafted.

I'm glad he got a deal finally, he's too good to be sitting out there. I'm annoyed that at 975K you don't send him a one year offer. However, it's very possible he looked at other opportunities and was offered something similar.

In the sense that he wouldn't cost assets to attain. That's what I meant 😄

This is very true, I would love to get AA on this roster for the right deal for free. Whatever is left in cap space after Ullmark and Olofsson sign, give it to him.

The NHL ap on my laptop.

I also find it odd that Athanasiou is still out there as well as Haula.

It's someone like Miro Satan, Daniel Briere or Brian Campbell from 2000 until now.

I've always been a fan of extremely skilled scoring forwards. Alexander Mogilny, for all his flaws is my favorite Sabre. I have been watching since 1992-93 time frame, but I always preferred Jagr, Lemieux, Pure and so on. At the same time, Mogilny just oozed that talent. In time that could be changed by someone like Eichel, Dahlin if they show the long term achievable success.

I mean the quality of the players, not the AAV. See Nordstrom - 700K (CGY).

With the cap questions, and health questions, you should be able to poach Raanta. I've looked at countless other near 1B options and he is simply the best fit. Make it happen!

I really want to understand Adams work on the players he's signed for 700K, there are twenty better players than Fogarty. That being said, he's quality AHL depth.

Fix the goal tending. Get Raanta from Arizona and move on. Trade Hutton and his expiring as part of the deal.

At the end of the day, I think Jeff Skinner is the type of player that wants to win. He got his term and AAV so he's set in terms of that regard, at this point I'm sure he wants to win. He has a chance to play with a former teammate who can produce.

Eichel - Olofsson - Dahlin - Hall - Skinner Staal - Reinhart - Montour - Cozens - Ristolainen Just a stab in the dark that is probably wrong.

I would assume it will be similar to the baseball season where it is a compressed situation. I'm good as long as it is continued.
