The Elephant In the Sabres' Room: Fixing the Power Play
Turbo44 replied to bob_sauve28's topic in The Aud Club
A good way to start is to not have Okposo and Krebs on PP2. JJ should be on PP1 and cozens on PP2 also -
GDT: Sabres @ Penguins - Nov 11, 2023 - 7:30pm, MSG/ESPN+đź“şWGRđź“»

If muel goes tonight a roster move needs to be made. Is this the Bryson to Rochester move we’ve been waiting for? If they send r Johnson down they’re idiots -
Sabres Announce Owen Power Extension 7 years, 8.35 Million AAV
Turbo44 replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
27m seems fine to me as the cap is supposed to move up 5m, around 87m. The 4th d, Clifton’s deal will only have one year left on It after next year anyway -

Played more 5on5 than any rookie since they’ve been charting it. Room for improvement = sure but he was 19 fkn years old. Try to remember how Dahlin looked at 19 and how he looks now. he had 35 points and was +10, couldn’t have been too bad. I’ll choose to trust KA’s opinion over yours -
Bryson will be sent to Rochester - I don’t see anyone claiming him and his $1.8m salary. If so, it’s a gift

We need to talk about Zach Benson making the team this year, 2023
Turbo44 replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
Have you watched any of the preseason. If so, you’d realize he’s been the Sabres best player in the preseason. If your goal is to make the playoffs, you put the best players in the lineup regardless of age. It’s all common sense. He’s not your normal 18 year old. -
Miami is playing well, but we’ve seen this before with Miami. As for Buffalo, it’s nice to see how the team plays with two really good guards.
-
Agreed. If a trade were happening I’d think it could be something along the lines of: zegras + gibson (money retained) for Kulich or savoie, UPL, 1st

You’re going to be jealous about this French. I was at the U2 stage one show in 1980. They did open for another band but can’t remember their name?? It was their 3rd show ever in the states (boston and nyc days before). Memory is a bit vague but pretty sure they opened AND closed the show with I will follow. None of us knew Lennon was shot at that point, no social media etc. fast forward to December 8th 2005, u2 is playing in Hartford ct. I’m with my wife in the first row outside the heart shaped walkway. The boys walk around and stop right in front of me to play 3 acoustic songs, literally 5 feet from us. Bono says, “25 years ago we were playing somewhere in a club the day John Lennon died.” I yelled “Buffalo, NY” and Bono said, “I think you’re right.” They proceeded to play 3 beatle songs.

Already playing games?? Seems strange but obviously true

Unsubstantiated SabreSpace Rumormongering: Pegs is selling the team….
Turbo44 replied to Skooby's topic in The Aud Club
Makes perfect sense. Bettman goes above and beyond to keep the team in ARI but he wants to move the BUF franchise cuz it gets way too high TV ratings and embarrasses other markets. -
Gilbert was/is awesome. He was very shy, especially at the beginning of his career, mostly due to his lack of English language skills. Later in life he’d do stuff like sing Elvis songs at games, so he really opened up. Had drinks with him at a bar once, with Rico when he was alive, what fun. Nice people. Sometimes you meet you hero you come away feeling less than enthused. With Gilbert, he’s an even better person than a hockey player and that’s saying a ton. God bless you #11.

Sabres Trade Ilya Lyubushkin to Anaheim for a 2025 4th Round Pick
Turbo44 replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
We had 9 dwfensemen under NHL contract + Boosh’s analytics last year were horrendous = makes plenty of sense. Small cap savings too. -
We aren’t keeping 3 goalies - Comrie will pass through waivers and play in rochester. 11-7 isn’t happening - Bryson will be sent to Rochester and either Rousek or Savoie will be active. Tatar is still available and would make SO much sense that it invariably won’t happen
-
Nope: 2G, 13F, 8D as the roster is presently constructed. I think they’d prefer 2G, 14F, 7D My dream lineup: Levi, Hart dahlin, sammi, power, Clifton, Johnson, Boosh, stillman tage, Tuch, skinner, middlestadt, cozens, Konencny, Tatar, Krebs, Peterka, greenway, jost, girgs, Okposo, savoie joker and Oloffson traded away, Tatar signed UFA, Hart, konecny traded for
-
And only 21 of 23 roster spots filled
-
She’ll be heavily favored in the quarters too
-
Is there a team that would trade for VO at this point and his 4.8m cap hit?? Thinking he’d have to be included in a bigger trade for a Pesce/Hellebuyck/Gibson type
-
Hellebuyck is a dream but a pipe dream. I think the cost is too high (though we may be bidding vs nobody). KA Adams wants to Levi to play at least have the games not 30% goalies who they should target: Demko, would be pricey but the perfect time share candidate. Prob is Vancouver won’t tear it down and trading Demko would kill them Fleury - pricey contract wise and would he wave to come? hart - there should be a lot of teams in on him but Briere is asking too much plus there may be a waiting game going on to see if Hart is implicated in the CAD scandal
