Flashsabre

Any word on the roster heading to Washington tomorrow?

Both him and Milano are on PTOs so he has to make the team.

https://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog/Eklund/Source-At-Least-2-teams-Considering-Jason-Robertson-Offer-Sheet/1/118788 YES it is Eklund but speculation Sabres might offer sheet Robertson. It won’t happen, Dallas would match but maybe they call about a trade if negotiations still go nowhere.

Skinner Tage Peterka Mitts Cozens VO Quinn Krebs Tuch Asplund Girgs KO Vinny I’ll submit it to Donny on our behalf😀

Skinner Tage JJ Quinn Krebs Tuch Mitts Cozens VO That is an interesting top 9.

Sabres going to start the season with Rosen on the top line just to stick it to messageboard warriors who were critical of the pick last season😛🤣 (Yes this is a joke. No I don’t think Rosen makes the Sabres this year)

I’m excited to see a full year of both Dahlin and Power on the backend for the Sabres.

Apparently Kadri was rewarded for signing with the Flames by having Eakin and Milano as his linemates today.🤣

I agree. I think he is an impact NHLer before it is said and done. Such a package of explosiveness and tenacity.

God remember when we drafted him and Grigorenko and our centre problems were over😛

The Euro players playing in European leagues and the college players don’t come to main camp.

It’s the first day of camp. They know what they have in Dahlin-Mule. They are probably experimenting to see what other combos look like.

Thanks Really, Sunday at 2pm. If it is even available to watch they won’t have many viewers.😀

When is the first preseason game?

And feet too. Kid can fly. in the draft video Adams mentioned that someone he trusts from Sweden said that Östlund is the highest character kid he had seen in the past 30 years. I think Östlund is about twenty pounds away from becoming an impact pro player.

If you watch the last two videos they put out, he was sitting in on draft interviews (they showed the Savoie one) he was at the draft table and he was in the war room with Adams and company during Free Agency. He is mostly taking notes. It might come down to Kim’s situation and he is there to take notes since Terry is away but Matthew is probably interested in the team and wants to be a part of it.

Wow looks like Price in Montreal, Ellis in Philly and Nolan Patrick in Vegas are all done for the season. Patrick has never gotten his career off the ground.

I bet you half the Analytics depts. in the league watch that video and say “Wow the GM actually listens to the Analytics guys and value their input” A lot of clubs have Analytics depts because everyone has them now but the GM can’t really be bothered with them that much. It is an edge that the Sabres have one of the top depts. and utilize them. The drafting has been much better and these two signings were aided by Analytics. A couple takeaways: 1) Pegula’s son was in the interview with Savoie from the draft video and was sitting beside Adams in the war room for free agency. Looks like he wants to be involved. 2) Adam’s little speech at the end saying this was the first offseason that players and agents were interested in coming and excited about what the team is doing.

They see Cozens as that big fast hard driving two way centre. I don’t think they move him to the wing.

No, it was mostly because he sucked at his job. Krueger was one of the worst hires in pro sports history. Botts was sucked in by his family connections to Krueger. Utter disaster. If the only thing Adams did was fire Krueger I would still rate him higher than Botts

Mostly because the Pegulas trust him. They have been thru a decade of dysfunction and finally have their guy they trust and can communicate with. Things finally look like they are on the right track. You are right that the results haven’t come yet but I think the Pegulas are happy with the way things are heading and want stability finally with someone they trust, especially with Kim’s situation.

Your point makes no sense. These guys didn’t all start at the same point and it isn’t just about numbers it is about building and running an organization the right way. Murray was fired because he was an a&&hole on top of not being great at his job. Botts made bad hires and didn’t build the organization. Adams walked into an awful situation with no experience and has made chicken salad so far out of chicken sh$t. The Pegulas trust him and want him around.

I think Pegula would love the Steelers model. Just keep the right people in place forever and be competitive all the time. The Bills are there, hopefully the Sabres are getting there.

Sabres Facebook put out a video of Comrie and UPL trying candy and what a stark difference in size. UPL is a physical monster compared to Comrie. Not that it means anything but I was just surprised seeing it. Comrie seems like a great guy. I hope this works out for him and he runs with this opportunity. Just competent middle of the road goaltending would be a big step up from what they played in front of a lot of nights last year.

Yes but not as an over ager. This was his first year of draft eligibility.
