It's not clear to me if that was the trade straight up. Almost sounded like part of something slightly larger but maybe not. Glad that trade didn't happen though.

Aube-Kubel mentioned accountability and conditioning as two things of importance. Lafferty also brought up accountability. Lindy specifically talked about bumping players. That's a good segment, he wants everyone bumping and blocking.

Good watch if you wanna glean some insights.

2012 was the last time the Pens used 7 or more picks. There's a bunch of 6 pick drafts in there. Btw, ik you were being silly in this reply.

Well, Skinner was primarily a shooter and passenger. Zegras is a playmaker and line driver.

Very little interest Necas personally. Doesn't hurt at all because I think it's wrong. I think this was Ehlers not Necas.

Dylan Cozens does that better than he shoots. He shot 9% last year. I do agree with we were bad with zone entries and setting up offense but I think that is part granato being bad and part missing Jack Quinn. I think also without Skinner around, Buffalo might improve in that regard. Time will tell and am I not opposed to acquiring Zegras and think he would help regardless of his defensive issues.

Can I be honest? I have seen this a bunch and I do not believe it. Which guys are basically just shooters now that Skinner is gone? Tuch, Quinn, Tage all have multiple dimensions to their games. Peterka was a shooter last year so maybe him. Benson certainly is not just a shooter.

Quinn, Tuch, and Krebs are all currently in Buffalo. I think there are other guys here as well.

He's bad defensively. Hence a major reason I pushback so hard on any talk around here involving trading Jack Quinn for him. IMPO, Zegras has never really been a 2-way forward.

Ziemer had 2 goals this game.

Compared to rookie Power who signed a similar deal

Trading Jack Quinn (which was a suggestion up thread) for Zegras would not make the Sabres better this season. In fact, I confidently say such a move would make Buffalo worse. Of course I don't think it would take Quinn to get Zegras but some combo of Wahlberg, 2025 1st, and a salary going back like Greenway or Jokiharju.

Or when they talk sports betting for an hour. Great, Mahomes passing tds line against the giants is 2.5... I don't need an 20 minutes about it.

Ziemer is one of those guys who's just always working. Hoping he develops into a middle 6 guy in 3-5 years.

Jack Quinn is better than JJP. Never tell Zach Benson he's not ready, he'll prove you wrong.

Die? No. I'm building a mansion on Jack Quinn Hill before prices go up this year. Jack Quinn will be better than Zegras.

Jack Quinn gonna be this. Just watch.

"He won't be that bad." Yes, if dictators aren't that bad, then sure.

UPL played very well last year. I think Levi needed Rochester and I expect him to start there this year. I think we may have a #1 goalie in UPL but I need another season like last year. A 4yr deal was my preferred with UPL so I hope he lives up to his deal. The fact the defense will be similar to last year while the forwards play a better 2way structure should help.
