  1. This isn't logical at all
  2. The big name prospects aren't ready yet. The fun part is how good we are before they are.
  3. That would be my guess. Idk if that's right, it's certainly a question but I feel as though we can handle it.
  4. The main regression argument has some merit, but it relies on xgf and xgf has reached a mythical status at this point. Tage is going to outscore his xgf because he has a great shot. Tuch finally had a full season and a top line role. Peterka will be better. Cozens, idk what he'll do but better seems likely. Skinner is the wild card impo.
  5. What you're not realizing or are ignoring is that Quinn as a rookie produced X, that's all you have to replace. Why? Because this was the 3rd highest scoring nhl team last year and even with some regression they will be top 10. So, no I'm not worried about replacing what Quinn brought. I think adding Greenway and a more experienced Krebs, coupled with Rousek makes up for what Quinn brought. Now the counter you'll say is, what about Quinn this year! But it's not relevant because you don't need to replace his offense this year, the team is already good enough there.
  6. No in my view, Quinn to Mitts isn't a downgrade.
  7. No. The 3rd highest scoring team in the NHL will be fine.
  8. Slant? Idk what that means. The teams gonna be fine without adding another forward.
  9. And? Skinner - Thompson - Tuch Peterka - Cozens - Mitts Greenway - Krebs - Olofsson or Rousek Zemgus - Jost - Okposo
  10. We're also forgetting we added a vet forward already. Greenway. I see no reason why Mitts won't produce the same value.
  11. Mitts takes Quinns spot. Krebs takes Mitts spot. Rousek is the forward who battles with olofsson for the 3rd line winger toi.
  12. Which is why Adams brought in Anderson in the past and brought back Okposo (who whether the fans like it or not, is the heart of that locker room), and why he brought in E. Johnson. He brought in experience to guide but is leaving it up to the younger guys to do. The thing is, Skinner, Tuch, Tage, Dahlin, Clifton, Mitts, Olofsson, are not young guys that lack experience. They have years of experience in this league.
  13. Salary very much disclosed. Would you rather have Clifton for 3yrs at 3.33 or Dumba at 1yr for 3.9?
  14. Finger Lakes. There is this chicken and ice cream place in Penn Yan called Seneca Farms that is really good.
  15. Dahlin might be the grittiest defender on this team. He's very physical all over the ice and takes very little crap from anyone.
  16. I agree with most of this. The only part I do not is the idea that UPL can be an average goalie. I have seen next to nothing to convince me he is anything but a subpar backup.
  17. According to capfriendly, their forwards average age is 31.2 and Defense average age is 29.1 For the Sabres perspective, Forwards is 26.1 and Defense is 25.8
  18. ❄️ ❄️ ❄️
  19. Hey everyone, if you wanna be mad at adams for anything, go for it. I'm not policing you. Have at it. He's def not been perfect and could do more. But guess what, you don't need to post that in every ***** thread every time you post. So what's Adams failed out?
  20. You're full of it. Every thread devolves into the same posters complaining about the same things. But yea... it's policing. What a joke Thorny. This thread was about the countdown to the season starting and its the same crap as every single other thread. There's no policing crap, there's just a bunch of ppl whining about the same problems everywhere repeatedly. Policing. Lol yea that's what's happening when every thread is the same and some of us note it. What a joke.
  21. This place sucks. Every ***** thread is the same. Draft thread, season start thread, don't matter. All the same bitching.
  22. I wonder if Bedard has a Jack Hughes like rookie season. Better than Hughes but his lack of strength will be a factor at the NHL level even with all his gifts. Not saying he won't be amazing, just that year 1 might be more mortal.
  23. Being able to "find a way" has been the universal dismissal phrase for a lot of this. "Well they found a way so it's fine." I am not saying that is what you said, just noting that is how it is being used. I have a friend who constantly says "well I found a way" and has suggested my wife is dumb for going into education because it doesn't pay enough. Rising costs are a result of stagnant government spending on education and rising costs of colleges. It isn't just administrators. Colleges have to have all these extras to attract students, it isn't about education anymore, it is about an experience. It sucks and idk what or if there is a solution. That said not everyone should go to college. Trades are valuable and always have been and should be viewed with the same appreciation as some Bacherlor's degreed tech bro.
  24. 5.4million with RFA and defender Trent Frederic also left to sign. Up to 4,290,125 the compensation is only a 2nd round pick. I would offer Swayman that for 2 years and see what he says.
