Graves is still my choice for a 4D. It would be better if he was RHD but Rasmus and Mule seemed to make it seamless.
-
Once the talent in the pipeline is developed there may be a need to move Mitts due to cap issues, pressure from prospects or simply having trade value for something the Sabres need. His versatility (W or C, L1-3) is needed here. He also hasn’t hit his ceiling. Injuries have set him back a year in his development so he is just getting to the point where we can see what kind of player he is. If JJP, Quinn, Krebs, Kulich, Savoie, Rosen, Östlund all come close to their ceilings there will be moves to be made.

We finally got a bit of rain. I hope it was widespread, to slow down some of the fires.

He was pretty good in the first, came out strong. Took a bad penalty and things went downhill from there. Vegas has neutralized Florida’s offense. -
Trotz as GM said something that sounds like KA’s philosophy. He told his scouts to find guys with skill, who bring fans out of their seats. He said he could find them grinders any day of the week.

I’m not saying he isn’t having a great playoff. I’m saying Marchesseault has elevated his own game by a wider margin. -

I’m trying to avoid dismissing Jack contributions but he is doing what he is supposed to. Point per game player. Marchesseault is a 25 goal guy scoring at a 60 goal scorer pace. -

Gretzky lost the Art Ross to Dionne because of fewer goals. -
Messi is a smart guy to avoid Toronto.

The Panthers PP is different, they don’t have a real shooting threat. They move it until the bumper or backdoor is open. Their other option is point shots. No wonder they are 0 for the series. They need VO, Sabres need Gudas. -

Original Knight Marchesseault is the hottest guy in the finals. -
I’m out,I have no idea who ever played for the Bisons. It would have to be in the first season or two.

Is Jeff Skinner on a Hall of Fame trajectory?
French Collection replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
A few milestones give guys almost automatic entry. 500 goals is probably one. I still don’t think Skinner is a HoFer. Ask me again in 5+ years if he hasn’t slowed and had some playoff success. -
This was a poll question, not an actual trade proposal. I have to remind myself of this because I can feel my blood pressure rising while thinking about this. There are worse than dumb and dumber odds KA does this. I still want him to be in on Helle and Hart if they are available. This would show me he isn’t set on Comrie/UPL with Levi.
-
Thanks. He talks about those guys and says the Sabres should interview them. There should be news leaking out about who is being interviewed by who. I would think KA would want to meet everyone outside of the top 5.
-
I wonder if more were interviewed? Two that jump out at me are Reinbacher and Sandin-Pellikka. Dark horses like Musty, Willander and Yager, Danielsen and Ritchie.

The league doesn’t seem to be consistent on checking guys out. Tkachuk got rocked but it didn’t look like head contact. He definitely struggled to get his balance. -

Sorry, I jumped the gun there. Jenny, Jesse, at my age they’re all hot young chicks. -

French Collection replied to tom webster's topic in The Aud Club
He is way more valuable than say VO because of his versatility. He also has upside. He is on the team until pushed out by a younger guy who needs to be in the top 9. The only other thing I see is a trade that KA can’t turn down. If he locks Mitts in at a decent salary that makes moving him easier when the time comes. -

And sign the deal in Springfield. -
Definitely more of a goalie factory than Canada at the moment.
