Does this mean Seamus Kotyk is out as goalie development coach, or is this a new position?

He’s still listed on the staff directory and 2026-27 is referenced, but so is the old ECHL team so who knows for sure.

Nathan Paetsch is leaving the Amerks coaching staff to be the head coach of Youngstown in the USHL.  Expecting that's who's role Moser is taking over, but don't know that for certain.

Moser replaced Prospal.

The forward group looks really poor. Assuming Helenius is with Buffalo, they don't have anyone with any sort of potential of being a consistent goal scorer. Theres no Rosen, no Östlund, not even a Murray there anymore. 

Last season Kuntar and Fiddler-Schultz scored 21G, which seems high for them. Carson Meyer once scored 22G with Cleveland. Rest of the guys never scored at a good clip at any level. 

Defense is young but looks strong. But this team might struggle IMO.

I forgot about Peca. Thats a good AHLer. So they have one good reliable scorer.

Appears that you are missing:

 

Sheary

McDonough 

Peca

Polin 

Richard

Additionally, if Buffalo stays healthy, Kozak and Danforth are likely waived adding to the group above. Add in Meyer, Kuntar and Fiddler-Schultz and that's a pretty good group of forwards.
