If Ruff allows Sabres to do this, all should be FIRED No way Ruff won't demand changes if Sabres don't project up Goaltending alone should prevent this 2 #1 defensive players should prevent this Ruff himself WILL PREVENT THIS RUFF will pick next GM Let McDermott Ruff is now THE MAN

Well, Adams and Pegula made Ruff's hiring a MUST Pegula admitted, the past was a mistake, they had to prove to Ruff they would do what it takes to get to the Playoffs Guarantee RUFF didn't come back on for that, HE WANTS A CUP!!!!!!!! Ruff sees the TALENT but sees the FLAWS. 1/4 of the season he will DEMAND Adams change certain positions for new Talent Top 6 will be 50% different if they are NOT heading towards the playoffs before Trade Deadline!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just NOT a True Center

I see 2nd line of Quinn Somebody Peterka being the TOP scoring LINE by mid season Cozen destined to be Traded On a TEAM with no REAL Center, just a Bunch of Wingers Power and Dahlin are the Center 50% of the TIME

1 = 2 = 3 =4 =5 Gonna need each one to lead to 2 others that can help but these are the keys. Yes a ROOKIE is the KEY, the name less important

Ruff does not know his Team yet on ice. That will happen after 25% of the season gone by. He will tap all he can from Rochester if needed. They have been going to the playoffs so there is Talent there! We have Goaltending!!!! Ruff will get this defense matched up properly so we have Defense He now has to find a 1C center that can bring puck up ice. This should NOT be Dahlin or Power. Those two should come in after Puck is set in offensive zone. This Team needs to see what they have in Bottom Two lines, it takes a few games to find out!!!!! ONLY two games on a NEW team for Ruff. Doesn't know this Organization, he was Fired by Pegula when he got here.

You lost 2 games

3rd line too

You answered your own question We weren't good enough with Skinner and Middlestat, that wasn't going to change We all know we need a 1C, Tage is good but inconsistent. Not sold at all on Cozens. Not even sure about Tuch but at least I want to see what he can do with a REAL Center This team scored 2 years ago from Tage Tuch, Peterka will score and Quinn will too Bottom six is new, Those lines will gel quick enough Two games with the same team in Europe is NOT a good feel for what this Team is, nor was their 3-0 stompings in Preseason Ruff needs time to get to know his Players and Force Adams hand when Trades are needed Ruff will have Pegula's Backing!!!!!!!!!!!! Adams has NO collateral left

NJ was a bad team to get 2X in a row They know Lindy well and they addressed some issues to the 2nd ranked Conference Team led by Lindy 2 years ago!

They went to Europe and I bet Ruff has been viewing tirelessly the Video he has is short time on his TEAM Ruff does not know his players yet, NHL screwed him of his first normal preseason with his new TEAM No major trades and no Playoffs will have Adams gone

He had no Preseason, 1-2 Practices. Often starts slow like the Rest of the team

I said YES BUT Ruff will make it Close. Dahlin isn't this BAD Bottom Line was our best line against NJ, that won't always be the case. We have Very Good Goaltending, UPL alwasy starts a bit slow and LEVI is a STUD We need a #1 Center and he isn't in Rochester this year and NOT on the Team now.

Tell me Tage and Cozens are True Centers. Neither can carry Puck past Blue line without losing the Puck or Knocked off. way less then 50% they succeed. Not good enough and NJ proved it. top Teams will knock them off if they know how to be Physical.

Obvious now it is NOT a Coaching issue, Player Issue and that leads to the GM. Sabres have no Top 20 Player, gave it away to LV. So far Dahlin has fallen far short of the Talent we see. Sabres have no Center on the Top Two Lines. What I mean is someone who can consistently carry the Puck past the Blue line without losing it. Quinn is the closest! All truly Wingers!!! So Sabres need to find Centers to play with the 4 other players that remain from the Top 6. They have to Trade for ONE, I think it is time to pick a True Center ready enough to Contribute To me, Östlund or Wahlberg for 2nd or 3rd Line. Also temporarily use McLeod and put either of these guys on third line. Have to Trade for a Number 1 Center which we had Top 20 Talent before. Adam Henrique, go get him as a Rental for 1-2 years till Konsta Helenius or Kulich is Ready Lines would be then Tage Henrique Tuch Quinn McLeod Peterka Benson Walberg Zucker Malenstyn Lafferty Aube-Kubel Dahlin Gilbert/Clifton Power Joki Byram Samuelsson Greenwood, Bryson, Clifton or Gilbert Trade Cozens or Tage or Tuch. Also use Kulich, Rozen, Rousek if need. Krebs throw in any deal We need a TOP CENTER NOW

Levi earned it to. He got6 hurt. Had a few bad games, not like UPL or Comrie didn't either. But he has time and Development if you can, never Hurts. Levi has a Top Pedigree, done right he will be GREAT!

CAP goes up this contract looks better the in 4th and 5th year even as a Backup. Any Contract is bad if the player Flops or gets hurt.

Ullmark was up and down and became something. UPL goes backwards he is worthless though. Not a lot of money though. You can always give a draft pick for a bottom team to take

He is NOT. Since they got a Vet backup they can send Levi down to win a Calder Cup. He can come up any time they need him. Gets enough games at Amerks. He can go for Calder Cup. Levi will be here no matter what for 2026. He eventually will replace UPL who could get Dealt for a Good player. Have to see how Sabres progress this year to see what else we need. Sabres in the running, players will come here if needed!

Yeah, no way!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sabres have Grit and 3-4 Potential 30+ Goal Scorers as is. Not giving FL 3 of them, STUPID

No, we have Grit now to be paying all this for one guy. We need Byram more and Benson's upside we don't even know yet. He showed us moves that maybe more than Tkachuk could give. Prospects and Draft picks. Not players we already have in Top 6. The only one I would do is maybe Cozens but that would be a money issue for FL. Kulich, Ryan Johnson, Greenway, Krebs, 1 and 2nd pick next year Tuch Tage Peterka Quinn Cozens Tkachuk Benson McLeod Zucker Malenstyn Lafferty Aube-Kubel Dahlin Power Bo Byram Joki Samuelsson Clifton UPL Levi Extra's: Rousek, Rosen, Bryson,

Not Helenius, the others we have no room for them for 1-2 years.

Thanks Next Player 😂

Wow, why Dish #1-2 Prospect out the door? Do you know he has 71pts this past year in 34 games and you think he wouldn't be at Least a #9 draft pick???? There are few players that get those numbers. Savoie is a fine player and I am sure he will be Great for Edmonton. Adams was backed into a corner and at least he got a fine Prospect back. The Fact the Trade happened don't bode well for Krebs staying with the Sabres. he has a training camp maybe. I see no future for Krebs in Buffalo. I believe Lafferty has a 2 year deal too.

We have Lafferty as 4th Center. Kulich is a better idea then Krebs. Krebs can't play Wing. Even Appert said Rousek filled in Great as Center when guys went down. Unless Krebs has done something different in offseason, looks to me like he will be gone. Don't expect to get much for him either.
