I think Stephenson would look good as a Third Line Centerman in the Swords uni. He's got great speed and good at faceoffs too.
Winning two Cups with two different teams brings something too.

They are tied with Vancouver at "three years behind" the Loaves. Great thing about that stat, it will likely remain at three years until the Sabres win a cup, lol
Expansion partner Vancouver had a great season by changing coaches. Maybe the Sabres follow suit. A few personnel tweaks wouldn’t hurt either.

3-0 and the Stars choke that lead away.
Also, I have less than zero care about what team wins out of Canes-Rags. It's really good hockey and Carolina looks to actually be the better team. Shesterkin in a monster. But, I cannot get over that call in OT that ended it that way. Let the boys Duke it out and only call what's necessary.
Also Carolina had a PP that looked like the Sabres, all perimeter passing and no shots
I was surprised by the penalties in OT.
Sabres killer Aho wasn’t asserting himself on the PP.
Shesterkin is what Levi can still become.

Colorado looks great.
4 straight goals after falling behind 3-0.
I am pulling for them, not because of Mitts, MacKinnon is my favourite non Sabres player. The way he gallops around like a fire hydrant on skates just gets me out of my seat.
Nichushkin is a beast. He has become what his draft potential claimed he could be.
It’s been quiet on the Landeskog front, there was a chance he could come back. Drouin would help a bit too.

Don't people around here think this is what Quinn will become?
He has that in him.

Thought this was funny.
It would be crazy if the Sabres had enough talent to make the playoffs without one of their top guys.
Stone may have a bad enough back to do this for a few years before retiring.
A guy like Mike Bossy could have lasted a few more years in this era.

Yakemchuk is an area of need (RHD) that may line up as #11.
I doubt Lindstrom falls that far but he’s the guy I want besides Celebrini.
Iginla, Helenius, Catton and Yaremchuk seem like probable candidates.
-
I would move it for the right piece.
Say Tampa wants to re-sign Stamkos and needs to move out some $ and re-stock their prospect cupboard.#11 for Cirelli. 2-3C, 26 years old, 2 Cups and he plays all situations. $6.25 AAV.
There could be other pieces to this to make it work.-

Canada just added Brandon Hagel, Nick Paul and Pierre-Luc Dubois. I am surprised at Dubois. He may lose his love of Canada over there and demand a trade to Norway.
They sent Adam Fantilli and Macklin Celebrini home. Too bad about Celebrini, I wanted to watch him at this level.

Trent Frederic is someone the Sabres could use in their bottom 6. That is the type of player KA should be getting and it wouldn’t break the bank.

I bet a real close comparison fan-wise is Bills fans to Leafs fans.
Tough one for me as I don’t really follow the NFL but the Bills have been a good team recently with a shot at winning it all from what I know.
-
Leafs fans are not better, just more numerous.
Many of them are also delusional about planning a parade every year.

It better be a special teams coach.
This 100%.
Ellis can sit in the press box and kiss KA’s butt.

I don't think Tuch even has an inkling of a chance of getting traded.
Lindy was one of his heroes growing up, I think he finds an extra gear for Lindy.

Komarov and the Drummondville Voltigeurs are in the finals of the Q championship.

Round 1 is not even over yet.
Dallas vs Vegas tonight.

In a pre tournament tune up, Canada beat Austria 5-2. Cozens and Power get a goal.
Cozens had success at this tournament a couple of years ago preceding his breakout year. Maybe he gets his mojo back.

This Moose Jaw vs Saskatchewan series is one for the ages. Five of the six games have gone to OT. Moose Jaw must win to stay alive.
Savoie gets an assist in OT to get the Warriors to game 7.

I think UPL has earned the starter’s job.
Levi should not be guaranteed the backup job but KA probably doesn’t get a “blocker”.
If UPL struggles then Levi could challenge for more starts. There is nothing wrong with a 1A 1B scenario, I think competition pushes both to be better.

WTF? Why should he care about Joker getting moved?
I am guessing that he may get upset that his Finnish buddy is moved.

Levi with over 100 saves the last two games.

You're right about the media but it's not just hockey. There's a general media focus on Toronto for everything in Canada. Doesn't help that the CBC is located there.
and the rest of the country subsequently has some degree of dislike (or even hatred of Toronto) because of that.
I’ve had two BC people say you’re from Onterrible to me lately. I had never heard that term, probably because I live here. Both had only been to Toronto and had never seen the rest of the province.

Ehlers has a 10 Team M-NTC, the Kings need a retool as well.
Could the most famous Sabre Player in History convince another Victoriaville Native to waive His 10 Team M-NTC to come to Buffalo
3 seasons of Phillip Danault at 5.5 million AAV as the the third line center would be perfect
He is the type that fits 3C perfectly. He could win a few draws for Lindy.
LAK may want to move Byfield to C and they have Dubois signed long term so he may be available.
UPL's next contract

Goalies are weird so he could regress and flame out. I don’t think that will be the case here. He is still on an upward trajectory imo but he may get passed by Levi, which makes that a lot of $ for a backup.
