Imagine when they draft him 9th😜

Yeah, you don’t pass on a talent like Savoie if he falls.

Sorry to hear about your father. Hope for good health. Nice work. I think in reality Gauthier replaces Nazar at 6th or even higher come draft day. I think Kasper will be in the conversation at #9. One of Savoie, Kasper or Nazar might be the pick depending on how the board falls.

For clarification, this is for next year’s team and not the tournament to be replayed in August this year.

https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/sportsnets-2022-nhl-draft-prospect-rankings-final-edition/ Final Sportsnet rankings. I found the comment on Nazar interesting that offence doesn’t come naturally to him. Haven’t seen that one before.

I am thinking one of Gauthier (most likely gone) Savoie or Nazar are the pick at #9 come draft day.

“so apologies if the length here is obnoxious.” God if I had a nickel for every time I told a woman that.😛😂

I wouldn’t be shocked that in another year if Peca and Weber are flanking Granato on the Sabres bench. I think Adams wants to have a strong Buffalo connection in the organization. He has a lot of character guys like Mair, Ellis, Peca, Weber all involved in roles. Not to mention Tim Kennedy I’m skills development. Jay McKee has Hamilton in Game 7 in the OHL finals. He might be another guy brought into the fold down the line. And I have no problem with this, these are all guys with high character, high work ethic and leadership that have pride in the Sabres organization.

https://draftprospectshockey.com/draftpro-2022-nhl-draft-final-rankings/ Another day, another online draft ranking. I really think Gauthier is the McTavish of this draft and will go a lot higher then most of these sites rate him. I have a feeling that Savoie might be the guy who drops to #9. Whether the Sabres pick him will be another story.

First one for sure even though Savoie and Nazar might be redundant. Second one is more a boom/bust but the boom could turn out great.

Wow, sounds serious. Hope she makes a full recovery very soon.

Interesting. Rosen and Cederqvist were going to play together in Sweden this year, now might be Rochester. Forton in his interview wasn’t happy with Leksands for development which probably was a big factor in this. Karmanos in his interview said they were having conversations that would determine backfilling the Amerks If Quinn and JJ move up. Rosen, Kisakov, Cederqvist, Rousek, maybe Pilut, maybe Kozak That would be a really nice group coming in (Rousek getting a regular season in) Love that they are bringing the development in house where they can.

Some of you are really damaged. Atleast wait until free agency opens before having your “We are doomed” meltdowns.😀

The Sabres owe it to the fan base and this young team to make a few moves. A legit starting goalie and a solid dman that can play the right side. These moves don’t have to be massive deals that block anyone in the future or destroy the build but a couple solid moves to show the young team and the fan base that they believe that they are ready to take a step. Lets say they sign DeSmith for 2 years and Comrie for 1 year in net and Subban for 2 years on D. Subtle upgrades that won’t throw things out of whack but would help solidify the lineup. DeSmith and Comrie are lower end options that would provide a solid tandem in net. Not a star #1 but a solid tandem that would go a long way. Regardless of which players it is they add, they new to do something to show good Will and that they are serious.

It was a poster on a message board so it is by no means gospel. I just thought it was interesting to post. If true, interesting that they interviewed Cooley and Nemec that should be long gone but not Jiricek or Kemell. Also haven’t seen Chelsey’s name mentioned as being interviewed.

A guy on another site reported the Sabres Interviewed the following players: Snuggerud, Del bel belluz, Rinzel, Savoie, Warren, Kasper, Cruz, Nemec, Nazar, Ostlund, Beck, Lambert, Mateychuk, Nyman, Ronni, Mcgroarty, Lekkerimaki, Ohgren, Suzdalev, Devine, MacDonald, Cooley, Lorenz, Buchinger, Firkus, Gauthier, Geekie

This is where I will defer to the front office and scouts. There have been a lot of mixed messages about what kind of guy Subban is like in the room. If the FO think he would be a good fit then I will trust in them.

To me Teppo and Jeep were great skaters and elite thinkers which allowed them to transition from great offensive dmen into reliable defensive dmen. I don’t know if PK is there as a skater or thinker. I think both were great teammates and I don’t know if PK is one or not.

Before this season we had six draft picks for the 2022 draft and we now have 11. Hopefully the scouts have some late round gems they swing at.

Why? He was injured. I mean scouts have watched him all season. Does 5’9 and a half or 5’10 make a lick of difference? If they are splitting hairs like that then they are doing it all wrong. His game isn’t going to change. He is who he is.

Fixed the goaltending problem and gained a 7th round pick. Adams is a genius. The only issue seems to be the fact that Bishop can no longer play goal.😜😁

On the very remote choice that they do take Warren at #28 could you have a live feed focused on your tv.😁

Bring me NOAH Warren in the 2nd round. Won’t have the offence of some of the others RHD but he Is a unicorn with the size, physicality and skating. He is the type of guy that in 4 years when he has played a couple playoff series other teams will be talking about how they can find a NOAH Warren.

Campbell and Comrie Desmith and Comrie would be interesting goalie upgrades.
