Peterka and Quinn should be the most notable. Not sure if we’ll get any of this year’s draft crop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the eligibility rules that all the teams agree to. This could change from year to year. MY guess is the players who turned pro last season, would all be eligible…Samuelsson, Pekar, R2, Laaksonen, UPL, etc… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure sounds like they are planning on him starting https://www.audacy.com/wgr550/sports/sabres/ukko-pekka-luukkonen-has-been-putting-work-in-this-summer Quote After the Sabres signed Craig Anderson and Dell, Adams said Luukkonen will be given every opportunity in training camp to earn the No. 1 job. Luukkonen said, “I thought I did the best I can to work hard and reach my goal to play in the NHL, so I hope they think well of that and think well about how I played last season.” Knowing that a job is there to earn, Luukkonen can’t wait to get at it, “Of course it’s exciting and you want to be your best once camp starts, so I’m really excited about it.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should he look like he did last year AND be handed the starting job, Granato will be well on his way to losing the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digger Posted September 10, 2021 Report Share Posted September 10, 2021 For a prospects challenge I assume that we'll need another young goalie in addition to UPL won't we? Maybe a chance for a walk-in to try out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Glad to see our 4 2021 CHL picks will be taking part. Excited to see what Quinn and Peterka might show. And that has to be the most no-name defence corps to ever wear a Sabres jersey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Notable ommision is Lukas Rousek. I saw an Instagram post that he was en route to Buffalo, so I wonder if there was an immigration- or COVID-protocol-related issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Unfortunately, when you draft a bunch of college and Euro players year after year, you end up fielding a prospect challenge team comprised of 1/3 or more players, you don't have the rights to, and/or they don't belong in a tournament at this level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digger Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Does anyone have any insights on the goalies? UPL we know. Guzda has been in the OHL with Owen Sound (pretty average numbers or below average). Another big goalie at 6'5". Oliver Satny is a Czech goalie that will play this season in the QMJHL for Charlottetown. He's 6'1". I just wonder if anyone knows anything else about them, talent wise.

Buffalonill Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Peterka is going to be a franchise winger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudacek Posted September 13, 2021 Report Share Posted September 13, 2021 Peterka will be a useful middle six winger who might score 20 in an NHL season if he hits his ceiling. (and figures out how to deal with crowd noise 😜) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, until well into the 2nd 1/2 of that forwards list, the same could be said about them too. Maybe the new regime should refrain from (has refrained from?) drafting guys whose last name starts with anything before "L." (At least beyondbthe 1st round. 😉 ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
