Niceeeeee He was giving back more than he was getting it. Stevens continues to confuse Peterka with just about anyone wearing a 2 or 7 on their jersey.

Makes one wonder if it is time to start rotating these guys in the NHL here and there to see what they can do. Honestly, I'd bring up Samuelsson right now and waive Butcher. I'd also move on from Hayden and give that job permanently to Murray. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That very guy in your pic told me they weren’t doing them because of a grill issue. I settled for fingers and fries.

The question is are they much better? It's not just about individual development. It's about learning how to win, being in a winning locker room. Understanding the attention to detail required to consistently put your team in a position to win games. If these kids can learn these winning habits at the minor pro level, they have a better chance to carry those same habits with them to Buffalo. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly that’s what Adams believes and it’s working down there. Just wanted to point out that the Amerks just won their fifth in a row and are in 7th in the AHL (13/6/0), 1st in goals for. They’ve played league-best 17/1/2 Utica 6 times already, handing them 2 of their 3 losses. They’ve won their last two without leading scoring Jack Quinn and their #1 goalie UPL. Their #2 goalie, Dell, is with the Sabres, as are top six forwards Murray and Jankowski. They are also missing top 4 defenders Davidson and Schuldt, as well as speedy rookie winger Linus Weissbach. Their best defenceman, Matthias Samuelsson, has also missed time. Veteran forward Andrew Oglevie and rookie winger Lukas Rousek have been out all season. They’ve battled CoVId, that saw games postponed and their coach quarantined. That’s a lot of adversity through a 1/4 season and they haven’t really missed a beat. 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This model of having the kids win first in roch seemed to work back prior to and during the 2004 lockout. The young core played a lot in minors and grew together. Hopefully this same model works this time. Don’t rush anyone. That includes all our first round picks coming up. Have the main guys in roch (plus power) take the step next year and keep developing the new picks properly. In a salary cap nhl era, drafting and developing is the only way. No more ‘shortcuts’ please. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry meant power, Krebs, JJ and Quinn go to Buff next year. That’s already a ton of youth combined with who else is there. Just keep drafting and developing.

I think they could challenge. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
