Panocha is a hell of a 7th round pick

Missing Wahlberg, Östlund, Strabek, McCarthy, Leinonen, Richard, Marajala among others

Apparently Seravalli is reporting that Buffalo and Colorado are both in negotiations with Vegas about Logan Thompson. Good ol Eklund reported Thompson wanted out of Vegas and today reported that Buffalo is closing in on a goalie. Could be nothing but I like Thompson and would feel more comfortable with him over UPL for sure. Thompson is making league minimum the next two years. I think a Levi/Thompson pairing would have a ton of potential.

I think his point was they should have been trying to trade back into the first round to draft Musty instead of Wahlberg. I trust this staff and who they have zeroed in on the last few drafts (Peterka, Kulich) And I thought Wahlberg looked really impressive in the 3 on 3 tournament. Musty would have been a nice story but they obviously like what they see in Wahlberg and what he can bring to the lineup down the road.

I enjoyed it. It is edited obviously geared to who is picked rather then the discussions about the players who they didn’t pick. All I know is if Wahlberg turns out as well as Peterka and Kulich then the team is in great shape. You can’t say Adams doesn’t put the effort in at working the phones. I think they are in a good place as far as scouting, analytics and the integration of both to make collaborative decisions. The past 3 drafts are looking extremely promising.

So Wright can but Savoie can’t. Sounds fair and well though out. Its literally a single day preventing Savoie and with Covid hitting he would have a strong case if he wanted to really push the issue.

Babcock might not make opening night. These dinosaurs need to be kept extinct. Bill Peters being hired in the WHL shows these guys will continue to get opportunities long after they deserve them any longer.

Going Saturday This is the most talented roster they have ever iced

They are better painters but their drawing is not bad😛

Funny you make this comparison. I was thinking the other day is Boston facing our 07 situation. Their top 2 centres walking out the door together: Bergeron, Krejci- Briere, Drury The Sabres still had good pieces but those 2 loses were too much. Boston still have solid pieces but it will be impossible for them to replace what those two meant to the team as players and leaders.

I envision him as our Marchand without the scumbag aspect. A top line workaholic with a high skill level.

Benson with a hat trick against Everett. Something tells me he is going to be not bad this season.😛

Yes. The prospect tournament is made up of North American junior and AHL talent. The kids playing in Europe and in college will not be there because their seasons are starting.

This has to come out soon. I doubt they want players going into training camp and then the news coming out about suspensions. It would be a zoo. The announcement has to come before camps begin.

A Hug and Tug to the first 10,000 into the arena would be a great promotion😛

Buffalo’s interest in Hellebuyck would be as a rental.Meaning they would want to pay rental prices. I’m sure Winnipeg wants a top goalie in the league like return and that is where the divide is. Winnipeg can give him the type of contract he wants but he doesn’t want to play in Canada. Puts the Jets in a tough spot especially when he has made his next contract demands known and they are too steep for most.

This is why you don’t want to have good players in your team. You have to pay them.😛

Yes Pegula selling the Sabres and having them move out of town but holding onto the Bills would be a fantastic business strategy. People wouldn’t be upset with Pegula at all.😂😂😂😂😂

But he hasn’t lost money. What is the value of the Sabres now vs when he bought them? That is where the money is not the day to day operating costs. The Sabres as an asset have increased in value. And the value of the Bills is crazy. Overall he will come out well ahead.

I don’t know if this has been posted but my god is it awesome. A Who’s Who in the mids 80s😄

Stop posting facts. It ruins people’s narratives😀

He is referring to longtime Bruins owners The Jacobs who are from Buffalo and own Delaware North who do the food for the arena. Jacobs is the Godfather owner of the NHL. He thinks that Jacobs won’t approve a move for the Sabres to leave Buffalo

I have asked for a few years now: how did Pronman get his position? What qualifies him to be an expert on prospects? I have never been too big on his rankings or opinions on prospects. Leinonen just can’t stay healthy. This year is big for him to see if he can breakout. With Levi and now Ratzleff in the fold he becomes less important even though he was drafted high and ahead of some quality young players.

Its a move to sell merchandise: "2Buffalo" 😜
