Savoie and Ratzlaff make team Canada.

Matt Savoie is currently leading the WHL in ppg with 2.18 -> 11g, 13a in 11 games

Win 3 in a row or honestly start figuring out which player you are taking in the top 10.

Actually go read what I wrote originally. Here let me show you "They won a game they almost lost because of technical penalty on a go ahead TD after blowing a 14-0 lead and scoring a whopping 3 points in the 2nd half." First part is the penalty and the 2nd part is the fact Buffalo blew a 14-0 lead (again). See, it doesn't say "They lost because of the penalty" it says they almost lost because A the penalty and B the blown lead. I didn't change my story at all, you just came in and ***** all over me to because sometimes that is what Sabrespace is about. Here I will expand because I clearly didn't provide enough context with "blowing a 14-0 lead". The Buffalo Bills would have lost the KC game because of the following: Failure to adjust at halftime on either side of the Ball Failure to hold the Chiefs out of the endzone at the end of the 2nd half Failure to score basically AT ALL in the 2nd half due to their offense magically and suddenly reverting to a much more conservative one for a quarter and then suddenly trying to score again in the fourth. It was honestly strange to watch. Failure to manage the clock when they had the ball just outside the red zone with 2:18 left to play Failure to stop Mahomes on the ensuing drive in which they went something like 40yards in 3 plays Completely failing on a play that resulted in a TD only to get lucky that a WR was honestly stupid. So no, I didn't change my story, I just used "blowing a 14-0 lead" to summarize most of the above but you clinged onto the penalty which impacted the outcome of the game but certainly did not cause it as you very rightly note. The Chiefs lost their composure and imploded instead of trying to get about 10yrds to kick a field goal in their next 2-3 plays.

Condescending Your take is a terrible one. "Well it happens in the NFL other times so oh well" is what it amounts to. Teams trying to win the superbowl don't have to rely on luck after they yet again botched end game clock management and gave their opponents multiple opportunities to win a game that should have been out of reach in the 3rd qrtr. This pattern repeats over and over and over with the Bills and has for years. To the 2nd bolded. What an ***** comment.

That penalty did not decide the outcome of the game. Also what a lame excuse for the Bills this season. "Happens all the time" ... yes all the time to McDermott coached teams. You wanna keep rolling with a head coach that needs a technical penalty each week to win games while other weeks he gives up game winning drives to Mac Jones, be my guest.

Quick note here. Mitts the last year and so far this year is well above .5pts per game. He was at 0.72 last year and is at 0.76 this year. His goals per game the last 2 years are 0.18 and 0.21. With the increase in the cap, I would think this summer something in the 5-6mil range is probably what Mitts could expect. On the open market (he's a RFA) he would probably get similar. Really all depends on how the year plays out. I think Olofsson will get a smaller contract than Mitts. If VO had value, a team would have traded for him already.

What upcoming young guy plays Greenway's game? Your options are Savoie, Kulich, Rosen, and idk Rousek I guess. That's really the only potentially ready to go guys for next year. Jost, Olofsson, Okposo, and Zemgus will all be gone. You don't want to replace that with rookies. Maybe Savoie or Kulich make the team but I'd make it hard for them too.

2 things: 1, you can't let him walk because he's signed for an additional year at the low price of 3 million. 2, Greenway has played well this year so I think recency bias is jumping in here.

So... the Washington Capitals will be the Virginia Suburbs now?

25g is the middle. He sits around 9-11% with around 230-250 shots he gets there

Right but as noted you're adding 2 years of 222 shots at 7.8% and comparing to 1 year of 212 shots at... whatever it is 14% or something. Every year of his career was 2 years before last year. We're comparing about 52% of his shots to 48% in reality.

"I say ***** you Jobu, I do it myself" - JJ Peterka probably

This came up elsewhere but we should talk about Cozens shooting issue because it is a problem. He's 17th on this list at -4.2

The interesting thing about Jack Quinn is that he just spent roughly 6 months only being able to work out his upper buddy and watch hockey. I am really curious to see after a month or so back if the game slows down rapidly for him. Very excited for his return.

Walking away from a 25yr old AHL tweener I wouldn't call "giving up on him" to be honest.

I wouldn't be surprised if Cozens was a 25g player.

Oh I hate this pick. Drafting a goalie in a bad goalie draft is like drafting a qb in a bad qb draft. You are doing something dumb, that you know is dumb simply to do it. The smart thing to do would have been to draft a goalie in 2021 with either Cossa or Wallstedt both available at the Rosen pick and then in 2022 you take someone else at 41 such as Noah Warren, Luca Del Belluz, Christian Kyrou, Tristen Luneau, or even Matyas Sapovaliv

I am guessing the thumbs of is the affirmative. I can't think of a reason why Buffalo would release Murray. Why do you ask?

I don't know what you are asking to be honest. Would the Sabres release Murray from the remainder of his contract?

Would who release Murray from what?

The important thing here is shots not necessarily games. He has 222 shots in his first 2 years and 211 in his 3rd year. The question is really is the 67 shots he has taken this year indicative of his shooting or not? Hard to say with such an even split between the first 2 years and his 3rd year. That first 222 shots results in a 7.66sh% which is still better than his current rate of 6.0% My guess would be that at some point we see positive regression in his sh% as it seems unlikely that Cozens is a 6% shooter and to be truthful most players are better than that. League average sh% is 10.1 across all teams so I think expected Cozens to be an average shooter is reasonable.

They won a game they almost lost because of technical penalty on a go ahead TD after blowing a 14-0 lead and scoring a whopping 3 points in the 2nd half. If this is peaking then we should call Chestnut Ridge, Mt Everest.
