My predictions are: He is extending with Edmonton and a 1st will be in the deal or he is going to NYI for Bellows and a 2nd.

Not that I believe any of this but the D in question might be https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=196000 Lets throw McDavid, Draisaitl, Eichel, Reinhart in the mix for fun too🤪😂

I’m out of the loop, are the AHL doing a regular playoffs with these divisions or what is the plan?

Maybe that Eakin, Okposo, Skinner, Miller for multiple 1sts trade is about to go down😜🤣

Some trades must be going down and they will need bodies.

People,have to remember this isn’t a normal year. Flat cap, most team are tapped out with the cap so a lot of guys won’t be moved. Hall, Montour possibly will be it.

“Sandin, Robertson, and a prospect” Uh, Sandin and Robertson are prospects too😀

https://thehockeywriters.com/aatu-raty-2021-draft-prospect-profile/ scroll down to his rankings from all the sources. He is not even top 10 for the majority of rankings.

Adding talent to Rochester is always important. Even if he is never an NHL regular, better to let these guys compete in Rochester then let them walk for nothing.

The one thing I can guarantee is that none of the crack Buffalo media people will be the one to break the trade.

I think Ullmark is getting more then 3.5. Think $5 million per.

There is no way they are letting Paul Hamilton anywhere near the ice.😜

Dahlin and Joker have been playing so well together lately I didn’t want to break it up but I would like to see Dahlin-Borgen to see what they have for next year.

I hope Borgen is ready to go soon. Dahlin Joker Bryson Risto Montour Borgen would be fun to watch if only for a game or two.

I think 5x5 is the sweet spot. Goalies usually hit there stride at 26-27, where maturity and mental consistency meet. He is a difference maker for Buffalo. The injuries are a concern but you have to have a good goalie to go anywhere in this league. Upgrade to a capable backup and this team will be much much better.

Risto for Turcotte is much more appealing.

They should hold him out until he accepts 5 passes in a row in practice without completely fumbling it. I have never seen a player unable to handle the puck as much as Hall has this season.

Was it ever mentioned why Granato was brought on the staff? Did he have any connection to Krueger? I know Smith and Krueger coached in Edmonton but I never heard any connection between Krueger and Granato. I get the sense that Granato isn’t too impressed with the way Ralph handled this team.

I don’t think anyone is expecting a run to the playoffs😀 It’s just nice to be able to tune in and watch your team play and see some positive things again. Having Ullmark back has made a big difference. Seeing the likes of Dahlin, Joker, Mitts, Tage, Bryson making positive progress is nice. I still have no idea what is up with Hall. He can’t receive a simple pass to save his life.

Regardless of outcome, it is just fun to watch games again. Firing Ralph has allowed Mitts, Tage, Dahlin, Joker, Bryson all to start taking positive steps each night out. If Mitts, Tage and Bryson can all finish strong and be counted on as regulars starting next season then that is big. And yeah, figure something out with Ullmark quickly please.

Enough with the US developmental picks. Can we grab some CHL guys. A balance would be nice.

Why is Gillis such a sexy name for people? Guy hasn’t been in the league since 2014 and didn’t have tons of success when he was in it. Anyone can throw out words like Analytics but words don’t mean much, look at Ralph.

Cool, can you ask him if he is interviewing for a job in Buffalo?😜

What is Rutherford’s contract status with Pittsburgh? Can he even go anywhere until the offseason? Those can be tricky, especially with how Rutherford left. Guys like Karmanos, Hunter, Futa, whoever Adams is interviewing could come in soon but there may be people he wants to look at in the offseason when contracts run out. Maybe someone comes in soon and they add more in the offseason.

Uh, The 3 Game Point Streak Buffalo Sabres
