Upgrades needed: Quinn, Greenway, Power, UPL
Replaced by similar player(s): Kulich, Levi
Keep but accept: Norris has an unreliable presence, Benson isnโt a first liner on many teams, McLeod is a 3C on most teams, Krebs is a 4C on every team nothing more. Accepting this is important to fixing because you canโt target what you need if you donโt know what you actually need.
TBD - TBD - Thompson
Benson - Norris - Tuch
Zucker - McLeod - Rosen
Dunne - Krebs/Kozak - Malenstynย
Dahlin Muel
Kesselring Byram
Timmins TBD
Lyon
TBD
All TBDs need to be veteran, established players. Maybe Johnson with Timmins.
I have a hard time believing Power + Kulich canโt land a legit 1LW or add a draft pick to it for a 1C.
Quinn + Greenway has to get you a power forward that doesnโt have stone hands and an injury liability.
UPL one for one on a backup possibility.
As far as prospects go, what use is learning to win in the AHL if theyโre going to learn to lose in the NHL. Not everyone is a future Sabre. Some are just currency so spend it.
Sabres failed to get even 1 Star last two games.ย
Just tells me our best players failed to have any impact.ย
Dahlin is LOA. Norris is a bust.ย
Think both Thompson and Tuch are on the brink of Sabres burnout and will want a change of scenery if we fail to make postseason play again.
Front Office needs to fill out a top line as you suggest and do it soon.
Otherwise a full tear down and multi year rebuild is in store, imo.

I'm sad that we're missing our #3, 4, 5, 6 forwards and our #1 D. Glad Lyon gives us a chance to win.
Makes me wonder about our Conditioning Program & Staff, our Practice Regimen & Coaches, and our Medical Staff.

When we decide to start playing for 60 minutes like when did in the 3rd...then we may make the playoffs. Until then....ย
itโs coaching and locker room and on ice leadership.
There is no excuse for slow starts given our circumstances
Ruff. Appert. Tuch. Thompson. Samuelson.ย

The only really chance he had he sent it flying over the net. Like not even closeย
That is Tuchโs forte.ย
Perhaps the worst shot on the team.
Usually off net.

Tuch playing decent physical game.
A no show on offense.
No shots over 2 periods.
Cant be on top six line and not shoot.

They sure donโt give us much of a reason to watch, do they?
and yet we do.
We are Sabres fans.

Damn.

This Iย have to hear, do tell.ย
Krebs has a motor, plays hard every shift, digs in at the walls and corners, can play wing or center, quick to defend a teammate and unafraid to drop the gloves to add a spark. Like Benson, his effort is an example. Sabres could use a couple more like him. Off to a slow start so far, had 28 pts last year on 4th line. Reliable, not injury prone, played 70-80 games last three seasons. Would bet a bunch this is why Ruff likes him.ย

Can we rid ourselves of the useless players like Krebs, Bryson, Quinn and UPL.
Krebs is not useless.ย

This kills me. We change the story with Terry depending on the narrative we are pushing that day. Today he's indifferent, yesterday he's making all the decisions and telling his yes-man GM what to do.
If Pegula was anything more than passively invested in the Sabres, he would have canned Adams a couple years ago.

Ha.

Plays a little undisciplined like a street kid from Philly.

Just stahp. Terry would never Tank, least of all for a player from Penn State.
Itโs where Dylan Cozens was raised.ย

UPL ๐๏ธ Thread

Beyond dismayed by UPL.
Then he gives that OT performance and 5 frame Shootout win.
Followed by a weak outing with no goal support.
Doubt Adams is ready to move him despite fan opinions.
