He's better than either upl or Comrie.

Sabres sign 2023 Second Round Pick Anton Wahlberg to ELC
LGR4GM replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
This was never weird and he signed shortly after. Stop making routine boring things sinister simply because you don't know the inner workings of everything. The outrage culture thing is dull. That's good, the SHL should be a big challenge for him. -
This is a good question. I think it all depends on if the goaltending is sinking the team before the deadline. I'd guess that if upl and Comrie are running with the same analytics as last year, Adams will be forced to react. It's more likely we trade a pick, 2nd or later, for goalie help in season.

Donald J Trump, your thoughts on his Presidency

Well nfreeman... you're right. It wasn't "that bad"... it was worse than that. -

That's really sad. Sorry to hear it. -
Dahlin or Power, Who Will Have The Better Career?
LGR4GM replied to bob_sauve28's topic in The Aud Club
Have the Sabres ever had a better defender than Power or Dahlin ? -

Here's the original question I was posed. I said, wish they could have offered sheeted Swayman or signed Raanta, in direct response to this question. I'm now being accused of shouting and living in a fantasy world because I don't understand the NHL or the Sabres talent level. Life is fun.
-
Talking to your is like running my head into a wall. You still aren't paying attention, I even quoted the original question to help. You jumped into a hypothetical conversation and your response here is just useless. You're so eager to defend Adams when I'm not even really criticizing him. I fully believe he knows upl/ Comrie is a problem but he didn't find a way to fix it. You need to follow the context of conversations better. The rest of your post here is condescending trash that isn't even relevant to what the original question was. Lecturing me about the state of the Sabres and the talent level of this team is laughable. They are short a goalie, that's a fact.
-
Again, you're having an argument I'm not. UPL and Comrie were 2 of the worst goalies in the entire NHL last year. Wishing Adams found a better option is not some radical opinion. It's a fact btw those 2 were far below average.
-
This was the starting point. Levi isn't relevant to that. It all revolves around the other two being below replacement level. I suggested 2 goalies that signed new deals as potential options I wish Adams could have done. This isn't that hard to understand. See above. You don't understand the context of the question I was asked and you're jumping in feet first to defend Adams. Every single option you ever bring in has unappealing parts. That's also not relevant because nothing is more unappealing than bringing back 2 of the very worst goalies in the league last year.
-
You ignore context of conversations often. You jumped into something and are now taking it to the extreme to "win" an argument we're not having. Adams had options. What they all are we'll never know but our goaltending has not improved.
-
He filed for arbitration July 5th. So yes we could have offer sheeted him between July 1 and July 5. I've answered the question. Your condescending "fantasy goalie" comment not withstanding. Raanta would have been a good option if you want an UFA that's better than Comrie or UPL. But now I've said that you'll just counter with "he signed with Carolina!" Which isn't relevant. It's simply 2 moves that were at least plausible, not fantasy. Adams has goaltending work to do unless Comrie suddenly regains his form.
-
I'm not doing your research for you. Again, I was asked what I would have wanted Adams to do based on the offseason. I would have tried to offer sheet Swayman. We didn't, the goalies aren't good enough and relying on UPL and Comrie isn't smart gm-ing.
-
That wasn't the question. It also doesn't matter. Adams didn't find a way to improve the goalies.
-
I would have offer sheeted Swayman.
-
If they write this again next year, Novikov might be listed. Good for Kulich getting recognition. It's gonna be fun when he finally arrives.
-
If you start UPL 30 times in 2023/2024, you're not making the playoffs.
-
The implication here is you can trade Rosen or Östlund for a legit starting or solid backup keeper and I don't think that's true.
-
No he won't. He's going to be a low grade backup in the league with maybe 1-2 years of solid backup/borderline starter play before falling off again. It is also on Adams for not doing something to improve that. Running back Comrie AND UPL is a major mistake regardless of Levi.

Dahlin or Power, Who Will Have The Better Career?
LGR4GM replied to bob_sauve28's topic in The Aud Club
Dahlin was better defensively because he played on a worse team. That's the issue with these comparisons. Dahlin played for a team that was bad and Power played for a team that was a bubble team. Dahlin is the better player and that isn't a knock on Owen Power who I have come to really like and appreciate. Power is like 90% of Dahlin and could get even closer but for now, Dahlin is truly a level above. Really excited for Power to have with Clifton and to see him in his 2nd season. I expect a really big jump up. -

Exactly. People have totally forgotten how good rookie Dahlin was. F Ralph Krueger -

Rookie Dahlin was better than Rookie Power. Also Dahlin is a better skater and possesses puck skills Power has only shown flashes of. I can't agree with what you say here. It's fun that we have 2 #1 defenders though
