GDT Preseason: Sabres @ Blue Jackets 9/28/2022, 7pm, Sabres.com and WGR
dudacek replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
I think it was more about thrusting Olofsson, Peterka, Quinn, Krebs, Bryson and Comrie to the front of the lineup to give them a challenge. -
Agreed. It's got no real traction around here, but the $1.85 million AAV, 2-year Bryson contract continues to look odd.

Am I missing something? Is Twitter exploding? I see one post in this thread that’s down on Comrie. Pi’s post was sarcasm. I’ve explained mine. General feeling seems to be he played well. -

Further to Comrie looking like a capable backup: that would give us better goaltending than any we've got save Ullmark, since MIller. -

Not at all. It was my impression of this game and it happened to match my impression before we got him. Long way to go before making up my mind. -

A backup in the Marty Biron sense: good enough to win if you play well, not a difference maker. He made some excellent saves and looked generally sound, but he also let in 4 in 31 shots. And to be clear, it was one game. -

If Priskie and Clague thought they had a shot of being the #7, it's time to reconsider. If Bryson and Fitzpatrick thought they were on the team, they need to take a closer look at Lawrence Pilut. The book on Kozak and Kulich and any other Cinderella story making the team is now closed. For the stories that are going to continue: Quinn, Peterka and Krebs are better than Bjork, but haven't cleared the tougher bars yet, and Comrie looked like I kinda expected — a solid backup. -

Rosen looks about as passive as I'd imagined him to be before watching him in prospects camp. Kulich looks over his head as well, but I like how he isn't accepting that and fighting through. Kisakov seems to be the most effective of the 1st-timers. Quinn and Peterka are better, but should be standing out more. Krebs has the most presence with speed and skill, but still makes too many mistakes. Second was that much better than the first. Let's hope that continues. -

LOL. Not going to show you the PP -
The other good comparable is Alex Debrincat, just a year older and more proven. He cost a 3rd, a 2nd and a top 10 pick.

So was I the only one on Sabrespace unable to watch last nights feed? Clicking the button in the Sabres website simply gave me a black screen. Same with the Flyers. Desktop or iPad. Worked fine for the prospects challenge. Trying to figure out if there was a locational blackout (I’m in Canada) or a personal issue. -

Looks like the NHL is giving me the middle finger. It's there but not working for me on the Sabres site or the Flyers site. -

WTF. Just a blank black square. Is this an out-of-market thing, or a me thing? -
To the bold, not exactly. I think the question is the contract commitment, not the desire to keep the player. @Thorny has already spelled out the Dahlin situation very well. He has the opportunity to squeeze the Sabres hard and it will be interesting to see how far he will go and how far Adams is willing to bend. The play of the other three this year matters in determining whether they sign lengthy extensions next summer. As to the rest, I think we’re seeing the same structural situation, you’re just projecting which guys you think are going to fall behind.

I think this falls under the patented “Paul believes it and once told someone wearing blue and gold that and they didn’t call him an idiot, so it’s definitely true” school of reporting. Or this. 😄

I think the Sabres think Anderson Okposo Girgensons Hinostroza Lyubushkin are exactly the right type of veterans to keep it steady, and they aren’t worried about the next tier of Thompson, Dahlin, Tuch, or the “kid” leaders like Cozens. This is a team that has been very deliberate in choosing the types of personalities it wants. -

Last year they ran with rookies Krebs, Samuelsson, and Fitzpatrick, while Cozens, Bryson and Asplund were playing their first full seasons. Thompson and Mittlestadt had about 150 NHL games each under their belt. This ain't Lou Lamiorello's team. I don't think they care about such things.
