Id rather they find a partial (and sounds like minor tear) now than have him in the middle of a game blow his knee completely out. It is what it is and we will still have Vonn around the room helping our young pass rushers and being the pro he is.

And the terrifying part is those shots are somewhat accurate. Idk how you stop a rising 100mph slapper that just nicks the inside of the post. This year Tage is 4th in points and 3rd in goals to this point of the season in the ENTIRE LEAGUE. You can't get much more superstar than that.

Yea I heard that too and eye rolled hard. At this point, I want Tage Thompson over Jack Eichel... which is not the timeline I thought we lived in. Connor McDavid played on Edmonton teams with losing records and MacKinnon played on bad Avalanche teams.

Tuned in this morning to WGR because usually during the 7am hour there is some Sabres coverage. Coming out of a break they did the radio call of the Tage goals, mentioned he was awesome, then immediately moved on to talk about Vonn Miller. The guy is gone for the rest of the season, there's nothing to talk about there. I turned it off after 3minutes because there were only so many ways they can say Miller being out impacts the Bills.

Trade him and move on. Let another team watch him "grind" while he makes the wrong play repeatedly in the offensive zone and is mediocre in the defensive zone. If I have to watch an offensive zone chance die again because Casey decides to force a pass or skate into trouble or just spin around on the wall with no idea what to do until he just halfheartedly dumps it back to the point, my head might explode. Good luck.

Sabres have 105goals and that puts them first in the NHL by 5 goals.

Anyone saying 20yr of Dahlin should be traded was wrong then and still wrong today. Tage is an exception. UPL, doesn't look good in the AHL or in the NHL. How many years do we wait before we upgrade him because he might maybe someday be an average nhl starter?

We're all of them with that pair on the ice?

We just won by 5 goals. I'll worry about defense another day.

Meanwhile... in the other locker room

Side note, I think Botteril brought in Granato if I remember correctly.

And just because you dislike Adams doesn't mean he hasn't done some things well.

Fun? You bring it up constantly.

This is such a strange obsession. Multiple threads with you posting love for a guy who hired Ralph Krueger. There aren't a lot 23 year old prospects that suddenly become Tage.

Well... that was fun.

For a tall guy, he seems short

Probably somewhat. Also xgf is using averages and Tage simply isn't average. My biggest issue with xgf is it doesn't do well adjusting for shooting talent.

They just gave cbj a shot on goal for Mitts shot on goal... lol Don't have to play defense if you're playing offense

They came in prepared to talk Gaudreau and how bad Buffalo defense is. Now they can't adapt to our total beatdown of the cbj

I like the fact they just discussed it 5'10" Bedard should be drafted 1st overall because of his size... in made me physically ill. The guy leads the whl in points and won't be 18 until July.

I wouldn't

One of these things is not like the other.

Connor Bedard or Adam Fantilli
