French Collection Posted April 9 Report Share Posted April 9 I hope he signs. Whether he ends up as a 4D or an 8D, he is a Sabres pick. KA will help his D depth and dispel the idea of NCAA picks shunning this team. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted April 9 Report Share Posted April 9 Also Huglen. He's only a sophomore on account of missing the season+ with the back injury, but he's already 22 and could likely aid the Amerks as a bottom 6 nicely next season. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted April 9 Report Share Posted April 9 Wouldn't a nice Callder Cup playoff run get rid of the bad taste of getting punked by some tiny private college in Connecticut? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo44 Posted April 9 Author Report Share Posted April 9 Johnson is incentivized to sign soon and play a couple of games with the Sabres so he can burn one year of his entry level deal. Wondering if he can sign in a way to burn a year, play a couple of games with the Sabres, then play with Rochester in the Playoffs? if he doesn’t sign at all we still get a 2nd in comp next year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can't have it both ways. Either play for the Sabres and burn a year, or play for the Rochester in the playoffs. It's a shame. Can you imagine sending Levi down just for the Calder Cup playoffs?

Pimlach Posted April 9 Report Share Posted April 9 Even if he signed right now he should not play in a Sabres games until and IF we get eliminated. I hope he signs and has a nice career for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a perfect world, I want Johnson to make Jokiharju expendable in addition to the team bringing in another solid defender in the off-season to bump the 5 and 6 down a peg. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
