Or scratch all three and give some Amerks a shot. It worked for CJ and Pilut. Lightening might strike again. You’d have to waive forwards other than C.J. for this to happen. You gonna send Okposo and Pommers to Roch? Edited January 9, 2019 by Andrew Amerk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you send one of Beaulieu of Hunwick down (gotta keep one extra D), there's another forward who'll have to be removed from the roster.

Scottysabres Posted January 9, 2019 Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 Pilut looked really good tonight. The Legend of Skinner Grows...……….for how much and how long? Reinharts CF 77% topped all players. Botterill's interview revealed nothing we didn't already know. Beer night ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what I would like for most of the forwards but not sure how to round it out. I guess it’s a good thing I didn’t get tat GM job. Here I thought they were discriminating against good looks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Wiki, Quote Tage Nathaniel Thompson (born October 30, 1997) is an American professional ice hockey center for the Buffalo Sabres Yes, he's played center. And there are times when he still looks like one. I'm not saying he's the answer to 2C or anything, but he might be worth a look. 3 minutes ago, Scottysabres said: Reinharts CF 77% topped all players. Holy *****!

If he and Dahlin are on the ice together though for any more that 2 minutes the rest of this year that will have been that plus 3 minutes too many.

They will probably improve as a team going forward just due to better knowledge of the system, better chemistry with each other, and individual improvement among the youth movement.

I won't argue, but they are possibly our top pairing of the future. I don't mind putting them out together when we have a 4 goal cushion.

Dahlin WILL be 1/2 of that pairing. I'd guess that he ends up paired up with McCabe when he is on that pairing because he's earned it. But Pilut could be that partner. Waaaay too soon to tell. They both will grow from where they are - Rasmus significantly. But in 2 minutes together the past 2 games they've given up a goal, a breakaway, and had Ray convinced that Drew "the Staph Infection" Stafford had roofed one. That pairing is nearly as scary as Meszaros-Benoit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
