Required. Sabres were over the roster limit with Power, Lyubushkin and Bryson all healthy. They chose Fitzpatrick and Clague over him.

msw2112 Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 I guess if they had to send him down to free up roster space, they had to expose him. It seems to me that they hope he clears and goes to Roch and they are not trying to outright release him. I haven't seen enough to know if Fitz and Clague have been better, but certainly this board has been more complimentary of Clague of late, and Fitz does bring a physical element to the team the they need.

Pimlach Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 So Clague passed him on the depth chart. Pilot will probably clear waivers and end up in Rochester 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taro T Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 Not surprising, he'd played his way off the roster. Hope he clears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digger Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 I expected Pilut to play a bit better than he has. It has to be tough not playing though for the fringe guys. Hope he clears and is able to help Rochester. We don't have great depth right now at D. Knock on wood that we stay healthy. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porous Five Hole Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 The worst part of this is we won’t ever be able to see @Doohickie’s Pilut goal meme in game day threads any longer. 😢 1 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quint Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 I know this is against the grain but I like Pilut. He had a great shot from the point the other game v Vegas. He makes good plays. He's just small and not physical. He's a rich man's Ruhwedel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

French Collection Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 (edited) He is what he is. An AHL puck moving Dman who can fill in a 6/7 role for a short stint in the NHL. I don’t want to be too picky but I like my Dmen bigger than him. Maybe one guy per six of his size.

DarthEbriate Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 And today we'll see how other GMs value the Sabres' defensive depth of 7/8s vs. their own current lineup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Pilut gets picked up, we can identify one team that the Sabres are much better than. It is nice to get healthy and have a bit of depth that other teams may want. At some point teams will be claiming Sabres waiver moves because the quality of depth players will be decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
