Any predictions for Zach Benson tonight?

Linus Ullmark was a UFA and could sign where he wished. This is a prerecorded message.

***** it. Goo Goo Dolls. First 30 seconds of this are still perfection

Vancouver... hmmm is that the team that has less cap space than the Sabres do next year even though Buffalo has their core locked up for the next 8 years?

Jokiharju bringing out that? I mean... I am impressed and also that has an awesome guitar rift. Here's a fun alternative version... trust me

With all the over the top hype Bedard is getting, wonder if Benson gets any if he produces.

Montreal, Chicago, and Nashville aren't exactly a murderers row of opponents.

David Jiricek is the right partner. But jokes aside, I think little Johnson would be good with him.

It's not, Dahlin will plateau higher. I'll be somewhat surprised if Power ever eclipses Dahlin's 73pts from last year. Dahlin on the other hand I think can Crack 100. I don't think it is a coin flip. Others are more than welcome to disagree. Sorry the above sounded so final.

Let me put it this way. Owen Power is going to be a solid #1 defender on most playoff teams. That would be his ceiling. Rasmus Dahlin has the ability to be a gamebreaker on a contending team. There is just an extra level of skill and ability that we have yet to see from Power.

18yr old Rasmus Dahlin was better than 19yr old Owen Power while Dahlin played on a worse team. At 20 Dahlin was playing for a coach that was *****, he had Skinner on the 4th line and Dahlin looking like a glorified 4th defender. Ralph Krueger years are void and not comparable because EVERY single member of the Sabres was trash during those 20 months of futility. Rasmus Dahlin is better and will continue to be better than Owen Power. Rasmus has a higher ceiling, period. There's just some revisionist history going on.

Hmm, it carries some risk. Power has to keep improving for it to be worth it. Beware a sophomore slump though won't represent who he really is. Impo, Dahlin will always be at a level above Power.

How the flying F does someone working as general counsel and COO, not know you can't do this without declaring it to hr and removing the subordinate from your chain of command. Like, does tpegs not have ppl do the mandatory sexual harassment training we all do?

So no. That's why I always do Sidelines before the game and just take the train in.

They could but I would be surprised if Novikov was not fed ice time. He's already played 2yrs of pro hockey.

Rasmus Dahlin is the Sabres next captain and I am always stunned when fans think otherwise. Not saying you do, I do see the winky face.

Nothing. The CHL can either accept it or the NHL can ignore all agreements with the CHL. How about the NHL says it will not change from this agreement for the next 50 years or something like that? So the CHL knows this won't turn into all their talent being sent to the AHL.

Truth. My buddies seasons come with one parking pass.

They need to make a rule where 19yr old players can go to the AHL. Each NHL team may assign 1 per season. As long as they have 3 years of CHL service.

I miss RJ.

You can worry about that if you'd like. Personally I like that Dahlin takes some penalties for simply being nasty in his own end.

They should make a rainbow one just to piss in the NHL's cheerios.

I don't think there is a good reason for the Dems to partner with McCarthy. The guy changes directions faster than duck in a hurricane. No idea who the next speaker will be. I see Jim Jordan as sleezy enough to try and get there but he is worse than McCarthy if you can believe it. I think the US needs functioning politicians to succeed and right now one entire party is made up of cultists worshipping their golden calf and the other half has to placate the base that is also worshipping said golden calf. The Republican platform these days is what? Women are 2nd class citizens with less rights than guns and brown ppl are bad? Seems to be about all they got. When you pander to the extremist elements of your party and they then come for you, being surprised is laughable. McCarthy and Republicans did this to themselves.
