    I do wonder if Comrie will be sent down on a conditioning assignment to the AHL, that would buy them 14 days for a roster spot 

    He hasn’t played so he would be eligible and Montreal did this with Price’s Backups frequently 

    @Brawndo assuming you are speaking as GMKA thinks

    Comrie can go to AHL.....if he gets claimed, OK.

    Totally screwed up the off season assuming young ins would improve over career years, not getting needed veterans and real "blue collar" hard hat guys to help better round out the team. TNT even said the other night, they have all the same kind of player.  I don't think there is a grit guy on the team today.... 

    I will give credit for armature scouting, but the pro personnel department is in the...... oh hey Eddie!

    Mash Wasps

    So adding to the FACT based nature of this site, without fear or favor.

    Not mashed, but for generations, families across Japan have hunted, raised and eaten wasps, an age-old delicacy.

    I am impressed you know that @Doohickie (nah, you didn't....)

    I must confess I still believe, still believe, that some season the Sabres will make the playoffs -- with as many as 50% of the current players on the roster still on the Sabres (and not just in the NHL).

    Sabres need to win at least a .600 pace remainder of the year to have a chance at post season (2 out of 3, and a win streak that exceeds 3 pts).

    I too believe.....

  6. FACTS: Olivier Nadeau

    Hockey Reference:

    https://www.hockey-reference.com/players/n/nadeaol01.html

    His draft write-up on Hockey Writers:

    https://thehockeywriters.com/olivier-nadeau-2021-nhl-draft-prospect-profile/

    Look, this is a 20 yr old kid…time to grow. 
    > 6’2” / 204lb. 2021 4th rd. pick who is projected as RW Power Forward worker who has a good 200 ft. game. 
    Anyone on this board not think Sabres could use a piece (or 3) like this on the team? 
     

    I may be wrong, but this looks temporary, so he can continue to develop.

    This, given the move of so many ‘NHLers’ from BUF to ROCH (GMKA has moved over $6 Schmill in NHL salary to ROCH this year).
     

    (AMERKS managing all the young talent, AHL lifers, and their own injuries is another thread somewhere).

    Why not do 4 and let them handle 1, 2 and 3.  
     

    A big name coach worth his salt will want roster control. Which might be why we don’t ever hire one.  

    But Pegs and his GMKA....

    How much for a coach?

    Pegs:  I already got one for 1 MILLION Dollars!

    How can a team never improve? It would make sense if we were constantly cycling players but we literally brought back the same team and they stalemated again. It just doesn't make sense; there is no seeming progression. We are literally stuck in an endless timeloop of players who start to get good, level off, ask to leave or get too old then possibly get better after they leave while we continue the same rat wheel. Its baffling. Now we are royally ***** with all trades being absurd prices or being vetoed by target players and firing the coach will only put us back into the whole coach cycler.

     

    Why will they just not shoot on the Powerplay

    1. 2nd intermission the TNT crew discussed fact there is seemingly no voice in the room the players are listening to..... (Donny... but if they can him, who is the interim? Maybe Rip Simonik can come out of retirement. Guys love him.😜)?
    2. Sabres seemingly have all of the same type of player, no players to play different roles.

    That would be better, with the 4th line getting very limited minutes. 
     

    @Pimlach  & @Doohickie

    What to do.
