GDT: Sabres @ Lightning, Feb 23, 2023, 7:00 pm; MSG WGR

I know what you mean. I prefer Pronger but just want Power to add a dash of snarl. -

Oooh, that is interesting. They have had some rest lately too. -

He only played 2/3 of the game, he can play the first at least, to get them off to a good start. -

Power wasn’t drafted as a Pronger type but if he added a little edge to his game opponents would pee themselves as he gets stronger. Mule could be more physical, just not in a Risto out of the play manner. As you say, take the guy out and rely on your forward support. -

I’m hoping for Anderson. -

Panthers laugh at the Sabres after Gudas goes knee to knee on Tuch. After the scrum, DG puts out Krebs and he proceeds to pitchfork Gudas over the glass and knock two teeth out of Tkachuk’s mouth in a battle of power forwards. Sabres average size grows to 6’3” 210 instantly. They win 5-3, Dahlin with 4 points while Quinn scores 2. -
Your Highlights of the Season So Far

That will be tough to repeat when we meet them in the first round, but perhaps a building block. -

The biggest difference in talent is in net, Vasilevskiy is better than last night and a proven star. I agree that the rest of the lineup is pretty even. -
Sabres Trade Deadline 2023 Discussion
French Collection replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
Getting back to cap space, maybe KA is playing chess to Guerin’s checkers. He might know there are bigger salaries to move and he can get better picks for retaining $$. There is only one team that wins but they all want that one or two pieces to get them over the top. What if he gets a guy like Jensen for retaining on a big fish like Oshie/Kuznetsov/Kuemper? Going in a different direction here, I wonder how much chemistry is thought about and affected by these moves? Again, only one team wins but they all want to make moves. You might be bringing a big douche to a great room and poison it. A team like Boston has strong leadership and would nip that in the bud, but going in reverse is a possibility. Let’s say the Sabres would have brought in Orlov. He is a definite upgrade on D and a Cup winner. Is the room happy with the injection of talent or does everyone feel down that Bryson gets relegated to the press box? They are pros in a performance driven industry but humans. Does Orlov come in and say this is how we won the Cup in Washington and this is what you need to do. I find it interesting to think about those dynamics. Anyway my original point was that teams want shiny new toys and KA can be the kingmaker by spending a few Pegula bucks. What can he get out of it? -

I wanted to add that Krebs play to Quinn was great, he knew he was going to get hit but made a perfect pass. Getting up and not missing a shift after that hit, tough little player. -
Sabres Trade Deadline 2023 Discussion
French Collection replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
Minnesota has received a 4th and a 5th round pick for retaining 25% of salary on ROR and Orlov deals. Low percentage of finding a quality NHLer with those picks but you never know. They can also be bundled to move up and get a guy that your staff identifies as a great steal. I want to see Bryson traded or pushed down the depth chart. Even a Dante Fabbro would be better. Caps are selling, Jensen could be had. Weaponize your cap space KA. -
Lost their love of the game?

Boosh snipe looked like a TNT shot. It felt like everything was stacked against them in the third, two time Cup winners making a push at home with the refs in their pocket. This a good team bonding and momentum building game. Let’s go! -
