The Jokeman

So be it, prove it in 2024-25 and I might change my opinion.

Bring back Zack Kassian!!!

and he has yet to show he can stay healthy. That's my concern with him.

He was good not great in the Donald Audette sort of way. Ideal 2nd liner/PP specialist. Jack Quinn should be an adequate replacement so he can stay healthy.

Na, Mike Peca as Assistant HC be more fitting. I'm indifferent on Ruff, as I didn't see any great retreads available but Lindy without a great goalie is meh.

I'm just saying trading him be a major shakeup. I'm on the fence to be honest.

I disagree, Levi was maddingly inconsistent this past season. I get his team mates did him no favors at times but still think expecting a guy two years out of college is NHL ready especially a goalie. Would you trade Owen Power?

and a goalie to pair with UPL. Levi's been great lately in Rochester but still keep him in Rochester until he proves he can be above average in the NHL.

UPL all day and every day. I'm hoping Levi keeps showing good things in the AHL and would love if he earns them a Cup. As we've seen Shields,Biron, Miller develop in Rochester and then continue to good play here in Buffalo.

Erm an example please?

I mentioned him at the Stadium wall earlier but I wonder if Guy Boucher has learned anything in Toronto as he seems to do well and then his teams just burn out.

Here's my choice of next HC....

No, Zemgus is so over rated by this fan base, he needs to leave like two-three seasons ago. We also need another NHL quality goalie. Cromrie still being here is a joke and thinking Levi be ready to play one year after college was a bigger joke.

but he taught Owen Power how to be a NHL defenseman 😶

He's looking down the pipeline with all the Centers he's drafted and feels Casey not needed. I wish he'd add a 2nd goalie.

I guess Granato doesn't like right handed D-men. *eyeroll*

To play devil's advocate, although we got May we missed getting Keith Tkachuk in that trade since the Jets used our pick to draft him.

but we flipped him for Briere which to me was worth it.

In retrospect the trades for Satan and then JP Dumont were awesome.

I'm just worried about the work load for Levi, if he plays more than 35-45 games this season think he might be over worked. That's why been harping to upgrade the other goalie in the room.

Who's the long beard for the goalie room? I hope it's not Comrie.

Insurance companies, why give me my prescription at a reduced rate for 3 months and then in the 4 month jack up the price or force me to use another pharmacy to get it at a reduce rate?

I don't know Boston's cap situation but would think need to go 4 years and in the $2.5-$3 million per season area which low end starting goalie money and cost the Sabres a 2nd rounder to acquire him.

Joker should be on the 3rd pairing with Johnson this year, to me the biggest question mark on D is Samuelsson, personally I'm not a big fan, never have been to be honest.

Valid.
