Interesting Mock. The swing for the fences First Round.
Mateychuk is a LHD but is a good dman and would more importantly continue Buffalo’s long history of “chuk”s.😀
This is the first draft in a long time that I have no idea how it is going to play out.
-
Mitts was lighting it up to end last year and looked like he was blossoming.
He got destroyed by injuries this season but looks like he is back to that end of last season level.
Major Knock on Wood, but if he can have a healthy season next year I fully expect a major breakout.
-
The only thing better then that win tonight is watching the Leafs blow a 5-1 lead in Florida.
This team keeps putting bricks in the wall. Still sloppy in their zone at times which is leading to goals. Got to clean that up.
Love that Mitts line scored, Tage’s Scored and Cozens scored. Spread the scoring throughout the lineup.

Power stayed another year in college when he could have gone directly to the pros after being the first pick in the draft. The extra year benefitted his development, not hurt him.
I'm just amazed at the responses of fans after a player/individual makes a personal decision on what is the best course of action for his own career and life. It's his decision, and his alone to make. I'm sure he talked to people in his circle who he trusts (family, friends, advisors etc.) before making such an important decision.
This has nothing to do with what is best for his development.
This has to do with a section of fans who have “Jilted Lover Syndrome” over Cal Petersen and are triggered that those feelings might be bubbling again inside them.

My problem isn’t that Levi is returning for one more year of college.
My problem is we won’t be able to talk about anything he does next season because it will be sabotaged by the “None of it matters, he is not signing here, it is Cal Peterson 2.0” crowd.

Erik Portillo has a chance to lead his team to a Frozen Four tournament championship.
The kid is criminally underrated by Sabres fans. He is the MVP and best player on an All Star team and allows them to play their run and gun style like Fuhr did for the Oilers in the 80s.
6’6 and the vocal leader of his team.
Kid has a bright future and we need to show him some love.
Here is hoping for a Frozen Four Championship and then the Twin Towers, Power and Portillo joining the Sabres soon after.

I honestly don't understand why hes going back unless hes trying to get to free agency.
What else does he have to accomplish hes not going to repeat what he did last year
Uh he didn’t win anything this year. His best friend he has played with since they were 5 is playing at NE. He never got to play in the Beanpot tournament.
The season ended on his giveaway.
His motivations maybe more then just making Sabres fans happy.

I’d be shocked if the Sabres coordinated that properly. Seems like exactly the thing they’d screw up.
Based on what?

Uh-Oh the jsb line is catching on: Burakovsky........ Upgrade 1 RHD for jagapysyk and another GK for oldmanriver and we're rolling
Unless this guy is paying Burakowsky $15 million a year that lineup doesn’t get them to the cap floor.
Going into next year with Anderson-UPL is a major failure. Anderson is shot. Get a real starting goalie. We have no idea of UPL will be any good or not.

I'm still unhappy about the Robin Lehner trade. Dumb GMTM trade.
I have said before that I had no problem with Murray's Moves, it was the execution that was the problem.
Everyone cried over Lehner coming for a first because that first would have been Samsonov. Well, Caps are ready to cut bait with Samsonov.
Getting a young 2 way centre, a young scoring winger who is tough, a tough top4 RHD and a starting goalie we’re big moves. They were just the wrong character to be impactful and pull the team together.

In the 1994 draft the Buffalo Sabres made a very interesting pick:
Round 11 Pick 277 Shayne Wright
😁

UPL and Vegas 1st is the dream. Throw in a Laaksonen who won’t get a chance here.
I feel Portillo and Levi has more talent and upside then UPL.
I would first go hard after Kuemper in free agency.

Can you imagine Rob Ray struggling with his name... gonna be epic if he makes it
I think the Sabres plan is to draft DelBelBelluz and Mirosnenchenko and put them on the same line just to drive Rayzer crazy 😂

And for all the worrywarts out there. If he goes back to college for one more year this isn’t a Cal Peterson situation.
A guy who is plotting to get out of Buffalo doesn’t come on a Sabres fan’s podcast when he has nothing to gain from it.

I specifically liked How he mentioned that Saros has the most shots hit him in the chest out of all NHL Goalies, as he has honed His Positioning well.
Yeah, you can tell he is very driven and dedicated to his craft. He isn’t one of the best young goalies because of god given ability. He is there because he has studied and grinded to get there.

I listened to the interview with Levi.
-it wasn’t just Levi, it was also his best friend who also plays at NE. They have played together since they were 5 or 6.
-he doesn’t think size is an issue as a goalie if you are disciplined in your fundamentals.
-looks to Saros in Nashville as an example
-enjoyed his time at the Olympics. Picked brains of other Olympians as to how they got to be the best in their field
-become quick buddies with Power over there.
-seems to really have his head on his shoulders
I wouldn’t be surprised if he heads back for one more year to play with his friend, play in the BeanPot and try to win in the Frozen Four. Going back won’t be an issue development wise. He will be getting a ton of shots and play every game.
Sounds like he is enthused about playing for Buffalo.
It wasn’t mentioned but he has a lot of connections there now. Cozens, Krebs, Quinn from WJCs and Power from Olympics.

Good effort.
For my money Florida is the best team in the league and we took it to them for portions of that game.
I am not going to miss Tokarski sliding way out of position or having no clue where the puck is on every shot.

Great Night
If you don’t like these guys then look at yourself. That team picture at the end with RJ was as emotional as it gets.
I love tuning into games for the first time in a long time. Finish the year strong, and build for next season.

Yes, I found it. It must be on page three or later . . . not much discussion, really, but Ben Myers was brought up. I guess I'll just wait and see what happens.
Ben Meyers won’t come here. There really isn’t a Centre spot for him on the NHL team. I think Eakin’s spot goes to Asplund or Krebs who are centres playing the wing at the moment. His hometown team Minnesota could put him in the lineup and let him playoff games this season. And they need cheap talent with that cap mess they are about to be in.
Livingstone from Minn St. is interesting. He is a RHD.

One of Levi or Portillo isn't getting a deal that starts this year. Pretty sure if it's a contract that starts in the new league year, they'll be fine.
Then a RHD or energy centre would be nice for org depth.
Adams: no downside if Portillo & Johnson go back to college for another year
