1. The powerplay ain’t broke, don’t try to fix it. 2. Cozens is better for keeping possession/battling on the board, and has a decent shot himself. Also has better passing for setting up the other guys on the powerplay. -

Let’s go! -
Couple things: Chychurn has been bad on his right side. Any trade for Chychurn likely means Power is moving to Rd or Chychurn is playing on the third pair. Power moving to Rd may work out, but most defenseman are significantly worse on their off-hand. I would not pay the cost to put Chychurn on the third pair, and doubt it would be worth it to move Power to Rd and pay for Chychurn. Especially when considering how much Chychurn has been hurt. There’s also nothing wrong with having goal scorers on the third line. The panther’s regular season success last season was a good chunk due to the depth of their forwards and being able to score with their bottom 6. The Avalanche last year had Burkakovsky on their third line, helping them win a cup. In a couple years we could have a second line caliber third line with Krebs/Östlund/Kulich/Savoie/Rosen. A major driver of Chychurn’s trade value is his contract, which Buffalo wouldn’t get as much benefit from when compared to other teams. After this season, he’ll have 2 more years at 4.6 million, which is good value for the play you’d be getting. Sabres are not expected to be tight on cap during those seasons, so there is less value in his contract when compared to other buyers. However, by the time that contract expires, Dahlin and Power will likely (hopefully) be signed to big deals, and it’d be hard to fit another big defenseman contract. A trade would probably end up being 2.5 years of Chychurn for 7(+\-) years of Savoie, 7(+\-) years of 2023 draft pick +. That is not something I have interest in.

Buffalo Bills: Damar Hamlin collapsed and taken to hospital
sabresparaavida replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
Obviously we are all hoping for a full recovery for Damar. The big worry is that he had CPR for a while, (9 mins from a report I saw), where he wasn’t breathing. ~10 minutes with little to no oxygen to the brain is rough on you. -
Probably not, but he’s not terribly far off. Bedrard this year has had an NHLe of 57 points in the WHL, McDavid had an NHLe of 68 points in his draft year. I believe Bedrard is having a better WJCs than McDavid, so a lot remains to be seen.

Is Devon Levi Trying to Force His Way Home?
sabresparaavida replied to Porous Five Hole's topic in The Aud Club
Couple things: Comrie said that he came here for the opportunity, if we brought in another goalie he probably wouldn’t have come here, as there would have been better options for him as a backup. Hindsight is 20/20, VERY FEW people on here wanted anything to do with Georgiev who last year posted a .898 while Shesterkin put up a .935. -
I think it depends a lot still. If Comrie is back today, you send UPL down. If UPL has 2 more good games or so before Comrie is back, send Comrie on a conditioning stint, and see if UPL can keep it up. If UPL keeps up the play then we could try to slip Comrie through waivers or roster 3 goalies (only if we’re healthy on defense).

Based solely on that article, Dimitri Simashev looks like a good fit on the backend. Another LD though.

Seider and Raymond last year for Detroit? (57 points for Raymond, 50 for Seider)
-
He has, but he signed his contract with the Sabres already, guessing that’s why.

Not sure what the injury situation is like for the Devils. The first two games could perhaps be blamed on goaltending (goalie pulled in the first game, second had a sub-par save percentage). The more recent 3 looked like they haven’t been able to finish, scoring 1, 1, and 2 goals.
