We've seen nothing this preseason to think olofsson has improved either. Also the points here really show how undervalued Quinn is if anyone thinks VO can be plugged into his spot.

Is there a forward you felt should have been drafted over Savoie or Benson?

I don't personally think anyone has interest in UPL. I certainly don't think you'll get a 3rd for him.

He just played against a mostly full NHL roster and certainly a fully full NHL defense group. I am curious to see him in meaningful games once the season starts but it might wait depending on the plan Don and Kevyn have.

I'm sorry but what? The biggest sport in NA and the biggest Pop Star in NA wouldn't have a bunch of overlapping fans? I somehow doubt that.

Would you rather have Zach Benson or Matthew Wood?

I don't think that was ever true. Kulich was just overhyped by fans but I think management knew his 2 way game still needs lots of work and he's not nhl ready. Sidenote: I think Bedard will struggle at times due to his size at 18, but Bedard is better skater and one of the best releases I've ever seen. Benson would need to upgrade his hands and his skating.

If the question is do I want Foligno for 5 years at 4 mill with mntc Or Do I want Okposo for 1 year at 2.5 mil... Okposo.

Was coming here to say similar. Credit to Dorsey and Allen for a really well played game. Thought McDermotts defense was excellent after that first quarter. Hope it isn't Tre's Achilles but that's what Twitter thinks. Kair Elam, you're up.

If I were to think on it seriously, the op was tongue and cheek, I would say as few as 3 maybe 4 teams will regret it. Chicago with Bedard is happy. Columbus with Fantilli is happy. Anaheim with Carlsson is happy. But after that, right now with expectations and recency bias, I think a bunch of teams might look back and be like "$#!+"

Out of the 3 players listed, I think Benson has the best 200ft game. As I've said elsewhere, I'm good with him going to the whl again. Truthfully I'm good either way.

Benson fell to 13th overall

Seriously, what do they want for Jiricek?

That's pretty close to Columbus starting defense. That's about half their starting forwards. They are playing against buffalo's top line and 1 nhl defender. I think everyone needs to back away from the panic button.

Why? It's preseason

They must be winning the game then...

Werenski - Jiricek would terrify me. That's a ton of talent an mean on one pair. Maybe we can convince cbj to leave Jiricek when they go home?

I'd have to think that if Ryan Reynolds and his group were interested in Ottawa, than if Buffalo went up for sale they would be interested. There's value in established brands and in the next decade, city you play in will matter less than brand. Just my opinion.

You were pretty close. Just a couple wingers flipped

What's I'd like to add though if I have a choice between Bryson and Metsa, both 5'9", I'm more inclined to keep Metsa who weighs 20lbs more and actually can defend.

They could but it's almost inconsequential if Biro leaves. That said, Arizona isn't adding him. What I'm saying is we're overvaluing tweener players.

The year after (2025) Benson 100% is ahl eligible. The question is potentially 2024 since Benson played the entirety of a shortened whl season and would have 4 seasons. But yes, next year I don't have any doubts Benson is a Sabre

I think most of our guys clear waivers. Most teams don't add bottom line guys because they have their own. Bryson and Biro would probably slide right on through.

Levi is thiccc, 6' 192

Yup, trying to see who rises to the top and who sinks. Personally that order is Johnson, Stillman, Metsa (ik), clague, 300 level stale beer, LA nova arena pizza, Bryson
