LabattBlue Posted November 4, 2023 Report Share Posted November 4, 2023 Unless another dman is hurt in addition to Mule, I’d be shocked if DG favorite(Bryson) is benched in favor of Johnson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely no way they brought him up just to watch an NHL game from the press box. Bryson may have FINALLY entered Olofsson territory in the grand scheme of things. So, maybe something good came out of this H&H set. 1 minute ago, Thorny said: Why is their 7th D to start the season someone they are afraid of playing Rhetorical, right?

Just guessing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the sense there’s no adequate answer 3 minutes ago, Curt said: Because, they think it’s better for R Johnson to play games in Rochester until needed versus sitting on the bench in Buffalo? Just guessing. To the detriment of the team when Bryson has to fill the gap until that guy gets here. Sacrifice a bit of the now for the long term development. Checks out, you are probably right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesnt mean a win but a step in the right direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 7th spot came down to Bryson vs Stillman. They mentioned on Sabres Live that Stillman needed to play games and that’s why he was sent down, even Stillman mentioned he appreciated the chance to work certain aspects of his game with the Amerks 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he could have been signed for that amount during any given year. You know exactly what you are going to get from him, he just is. Which is exactly what I said when we signed him His contract was never like the others 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should have a system in place where players of a similar style/type replace injured players for the sake of continuity and building a proper team structure instead of just the most "talented" guy. But whatever. I'm starting to not care. Team is idiotic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s an easy deal to move if it gets to that point. Even a buyout would be a maximum of 1.475 cap hit as he signed the deal at an early age.

He's a good player when healthy it stinks he's already at injury risk every game though.. but like you said it's the style of play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
