Rangers we’re over the moon to add him for toughness yet they let him go for a 5th rounder in 2025. I want toughness that can play hockey, aka Marcus Foligno.

Is Foligno available now?

EMBEDDED: A Day In The Life Of Casey Mittelstadt.
French Collection replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Aud Club
I actually found this episode kind of boring. Young guys just hanging around. -
Detroit and Montreal, two teams ahead of the Sabres lose tonight. Ottawa beat the Habs and have the same record as Buffalo.

If a good goalie is available KA should try and get him. Anderson probably doesn’t return, UPL may never be an NHLer and Comrie is an unknown. I want Levi to be the guy but we know how that can turn out. If he is the guy, letting him adjust to the pro game in Rochester is a good thing and he can step up and compete with ??? when he is ready.
-
Levi resisted the urge to turn pro last year because he wanted to develop his game more in the NCAA. He is not dominating the goalie stats like he did last year but I suspect the team is weaker. Maybe he can make the jump to the NHL but he seems like an intelligent kid that wants to feel comfortable before taking the next step. His contemporary, Spencer Knight, spent a short amount of time in the AHL. I suspect Levi may get some NHL games this year but that he and the Sabres will expect him to be in Rochester next year.

Crosby could have maxed out and got 12-13 in his prime. You are right about Tage going for security but he could probably sense he could have made more waiting for the season to end. I think he wants to be a part of this team. Dahlin getting $10 would be a great deal for Buffalo. Cozens’ deal may set the tone for Quinn and Peterka. The cap space the Sabres have will be used up faster than we think. Bettman hinted at nearly no cap raise yesterday. The Sabres can lock up the core on “cheap” long term deals due to them coming off ELCs and/or being RFAs.

Are the Sabres out of the running for the playoffs?
French Collection replied to inkman's topic in The Aud Club
There are three teams out of the playoff picture with a positive goal differential, Washington, Florida and Buffalo. I am not an analytics guy but this used to be Scotty Bowman’s measure of a good team. If the Sabres get Comrie back soon and he plays OK that will help the goals against. I want to see him with a healthy D and play another 10 games or so before judging him. -
Mittelstadt, Olofsson and the 3rd and 4th Lines

Quinn is good in multiple aspects of the game, I am still waiting for him to unleash some shots that are VO like. He’s got that in him. I think Mitts should sit a game or two because Krebs has taken a step and Asplund plays well with VO. Jost is a good fit with them or the vets. -

Quinn has a bit of Mark Stone in him. -

Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbour? -
First time I see that video, pretty comical.

Dino had a few drinks before this performance. I don’t think his dart was lit, no smoke.

There is still a ton of hockey left.

Eric Comrie out Multiple Weeks per Adams
French Collection replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Me too. I want an extended period of games for him, to properly gauge his value and to rest Anderson. -

The latest challenge for Tage. He knows that team and he surely followed their progress that year.
