Give it a rest. You think your precious Bruins sleep for 8 hours, go to the rink for 16 hours, then go back to sleep? The dumbest part of hockey internet these days is ppl getting mad at players for posting pictures outside of ripping slappers and bag skating.

My god, Zach Benson's legs look like trees and his knees just knobs halfway up. Kid may be short but he's built like a brick ***** house.

@Archie Lee see above for the "fake argument" that I am supposedly painting. And for the record, I am not saying Dudecek believes that will be the argument but did at least argue in part that it is possible so.. again, I am not painting a fake argument. I was responding to a real one. Which means Krebs most likely path to the lineup is through injury. I think the 4th line is intended to be Malestyn, Lafferty, Kubel due to their speed and ability to run stuff over. Krebs doesn't fit that mold but would be useful as another forward in the bottom 6 for the eventual injuries that will come.

I'm still mad this morning. The idea this team can't field a better team because of some mythical problem that may, might, could, appear next summer is 100% the putting the cart before the horse analogy. Team hasn't made the playoffs in 13 years but we should save capspace this year just in case of ... something? Either improve the team Adams or gtfo.

Real teams find ways to manage the cap and don't waste seasons because maybe possibly hopefully idk perhaps every RFA they have hits so big that they have to make tough decisions. What a joke.

This team hasn't made the playoffs in 13 years and you want to just punt on this season to what? Maybe make the playoffs next season? If everyone hits and deserves massive raises. BTW, Chad deliberately used the top end for every player to calculate those numbers. This also ignores the fact Buffalo could trade for someone with 1 year left, trade for an RFA with term, trade someone else who doesn't pan out and keep who they use the extra space on this year because they are better. You are so worried about next year, they need to ice the best team they can this year and be like a real adult team and worry about spending the 30mil in cap for next season, next season.

Poltapov has been bad the last 2 years. He's actually playing a pro style this year.

This isn't football. There is no preemptive bump for Tuch. He's signed for 2 more years. It's piss poor management. Every NHL team finds ways to shed salary and players each season but Buffalo has to be extra super special careful in case... what? We're already so under the cap next year we can sign the important guys easily. You're over here telling me how scared I should be of next summer when Buffalo might not even make the playoffs because they are stupidly holding cap space open for nothing. Nice try but no. They didn't spend to the cap because they're incompetent. I'll add that if someone signs Quinn to 4.5 million offer sheet, Buffalo will simply match. It's pretty simple. Hell, I hope every player you listed signs a 2-3 year 4.5 offer. Would really make it easy. Oh no! JJ peterka signed a 4.5 million sheet what do we do?!? Match it. Done.

Shakir tds are nice.

That offensive series was awful. Screen Run 40yrd hope bomb Punt

No no no. Every player eventually figures it out like Tage just give Krebs another few years, a few hundred losses. He'll be fine. We also seem to forget that Krueger literally cratered every single player on the Sabres for 2 years yet use those to be like ooo ooo look! They got better so well Krebs!

This is my "Sabres fandom" in a gif:

I honestly hope the team that spent all off season and really since the Mitts trade, bitching about playing faster and being faster signs Giordano. I just really need that last nail in the coffin of, "we have no plan and are full of *****".

The Sabres trading their best forward, a tradition unlike any other. ROR Eichel Reinhart Mitts ... guess Tage Thompson should prepare to move honestly. Can't keep him with all those drafted centers. Where would they play, right? Can't keep Tage Thompson.

To the bold: I agree, I just haven't seen enough evidence of that to have faith in it. Considering the last 13 years, until they prove otherwise, I being critical and skeptical is warranted.

Mitts played wing multiple times in the 22 and 23 seasons. It's an utter lie or fallacy that 1 of Mitts or Cozens had to go. Especially when both can play wing and opposite wings.

Then screw ownership. Every decision Terry makes with this team is wrong.

DeWayne Carter and Travis Clayton. I suppose those aren't very sexy like Worthy but could be useful

Who did the Bills take with the Kansas City extra pick?

If they don't make the playoffs, I hope Pegula sells the team. Teams a freaking joke with all their talk of could have would have should have. Piss or gtfo.

From his own mouth. "What are the main reasons for the changes on prospects since your draft list? — Jim B. The only change I made that I’m aware of was moving Ivan Demidov up two to three spots. I assumed all season he was 5 feet 11, which was his unofficial measurement from Central Scouting. Then I stood next to him at the Gold Star camp, and he was notably taller than that, so I made a mild adjustment." - Pronman https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5745873/2024/09/06/nhl-2024-prospects-rankings?source=user-shared-article

What about him? I'd be shocked if he was there for this.

I think you're missing my point.
