This isn't the 1st place team that played most of the regular season. What does he have to do to replace a Girginsons in the Sabres lineup? Grow 5 inches and get 5 years younger? He’s almost 30 and barely stand 5’8”. He an effective AHL player but with this teams pipeline, I just don’t see him as anything other than an AHL player.

Flashsabre Posted May 18, 2023 Report Share Posted May 18, 2023 ICE are down 3-1 to Seattle. Could Savoie join the Amerks here soon if they get eliminated? Boy that would be fun to see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted May 18, 2023 Report Share Posted May 18, 2023 That was my first time at an Amerks game, or any AHL game. The hockey is definitely more hectic and sloppy. The arena is neat but the concourses and bathrooms are unbearably small. Using the restroom isn't fun at Sabres games but it was completely impossible last night. My wife and sister in law left with 3 minutes left in the first period and didn't get back until 5 minutes into the 2nd. Subban was as good as any goalie can be in a 4 goal outing. It was fun to see him again (safely away from important nhl games) Kulich was the only guy that stood out as NHL talent right now, in particular his rushes. On his goal, everyone knew the second he got the puck that he was going to score. That said, aside from a couple rushes I didn't see much from him, but I can't figure out if that's just an AHL hockey thing because he had 3 points. Rosen didn't stick out at all aside from his shot on the goal. Saw him watching scrums he could have engaged with to win the puck. He needs more seasoning which we all know Pilut can be himself at this level, which isn't possible in the NHL. The game is slow enough that he can confidently dictate puck movement and plays while he's out there. Prow and # 3 made a number of good defensive breakups. And yeah, passed a lonely, isolated bus in the pitch black stretch of the 490 between exit 2 and the 90. Must have been a bleak ride. It was for me haha. Gotta drive back up the same road for work in a few mins 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalonill Posted May 18, 2023 Report Share Posted May 18, 2023 This would be a perfect opportunity for the sabers to open up the arena for a playoff game . They'd sell it out in minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, they're here to serve the Sabres and for little else (until this time of year). I'm about as bandwagon as it gets. I'll bet there are a lot of Buffalo-based Sabres fans (not necessarily on this board) who are the same way. Meanwhile, there are a lot of Rochester fans who are Amerks fans in their own right and who deserve to have the game close to them.

Last time the Amerks won the Calder, we were at one of the games and my bro in law got tossed for banging on the glass. That happens in every arena all game long. Moose was pounding on the glass last night.. They didn't toss him. 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boy that would be fun to see. They wouldn’t sit someone who’s been there for the playoffs for a rookie, unless they lose a couple and need a spark. But he could practice with them like Nadeau is.

I've seen plenty of people with paper signs that they hold up, though. They just don't hold them up during play. Seems they usually allow that stuff in, which is why I'm wondering if it was about the stick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
