He's ready. Mike Weber was on with the Instigators this week and was asked about Samuelsson. Weber responded they feel if he went up to the Sabres now He would be a 5-6. With more time in Rochester, he would be a 3-4 or push for a Top Pairing Role 6 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering Dell's play tonight maybe he should take the next back to back game when Tokarski needs a rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pi2000 Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 (edited) Watched the game in full. Impressed with Krebs. The points will come, he's got a great motor and good instincts that will only get better with experience. Hope KA leaves these guys down there all season for a playoff run. UPL looked very composed, didn't overreact and stayed in position most of the night. Good to see him improving.

Good plan. This is a clever tank. Adams also mentioned their goal with development is not to put players in situations where they will survive, but where they will succeed. They are losing with dignity or whatever the hell the Leafs called it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Krebs didn't connect as he tried to sweep in the rebound and it was actually a Monster that knocked it in. Krebs seems entirely incapable of scoring goals lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 Quinn is tied for 1st in the AHL in goals with 1 less game played and is 3rd in points. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am thinking there are going to be a lot of ups and downs with the prospects in Rochester. As others have said, I'm all for keeping them down there the entire year, even if the big club 'needs' a little extra scoring. Although, toward the end of the season, I would like to see all of the prospects get a week/3 games with the big club. Even if they go back to Rochester, it can be a late season 'reminder' of the difference in competition between the AHL and the NHL and a reminder also of the things they need to keep working on. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't look like the same guy that got some preseason action & the 1st few Amerks games. There's a "poise" (for lack of a better word) to his game this past week or so that was NOT there earlier.. Would be fantastic if he can keep it up. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taro T Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 Just now, Buffalonill said: He wasn't though Would've gone w/ 1 of the C's too. But Quinn had the highest ceiling of anyone left on the board. (And a really low floor, especially for a top 10 pick.) But if you saw something to make you believe his play in his 1 big season was legit & sustainable, a case can be made he was BPA. And his play since doesn't diminish the possibility he was the BPA when they were on the board. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rossi has 10 points in 8 games but I'd expect him to start slow after a year off. Lundell has 7 in 11 nhl games Perfetti has 6pts in 10 AHL games Jarvis has 2pts in 6 NHL games Quinn has 16pts in 11 AHL games Outside of Lundell, Quinn could make a case for being 2nd best right now fairly easily. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often neglected in this conversation as well is the play of those who went ahead of Quinn. Lafreniere and Stutzle are hardly lighting it up. Sanderson is still in college. Nothing Holtz has done puts him above where Jack is, same with Byfield. My point is not that Quinn is better or worse, it’s that this is a small portion of a dozen long careers. A few months from now maybe Lundell has 14 points in 41 NHL games and both Panther fans are pushing for him to get sent down. Maybe Holtz has pumped in 14 more NHL goals. It’s a long game. Quinn’s our guy. So far, so good. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched each game this week (thanks to you and @PromoTheRobotletting me know that SHTs get free AHL TV) and I agree he looks more poised. Also seems to be moving better, especially post to post. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
