Wooo

Lol how has asset management worked out for Buffalo? Zucker works on this team. I'm not interested in trading him for a 2nd. Good way to continue the culture of losing its acceptable because of some mythical future.

I don't care what a 2nd round pick is doing for Buffalo in 2030. I want a veteran like zucker in that room as long as possible. 2nd round picks are more likely to be asplund, Davidson, lamiuex, Bailey, weber

Wish I was a Beta, more like an Omega though.

What if, and stay with me, we don't trade Zucker and let him continue to be a vet leader in the youngest team? Like we just don't sell at the deadline.

We're drafting top 5

Needs to improve his pace, in the 3 games I have seen, he's looked okay and I think his dzone work is really solid.

His WJC toi for the 4 games thus far are: 23:36 was a 5-2 loss to Sweden, -1 with 2a 25:10 was a 2-1 win over the Swiss and +1 20:45 was a 4-2 loss to Slovakia and a -2 with 1a 24:52 was a 5-4 win over Kazakhstan with 1g 1a and +1

One was injured until recently and needs to eat about 10 garbage plates a day cuz he's not strong enough. Also, this pick should have been Mintyukov but idk, maybe in another 2-3 years if you're patient you get a useful middle 6 center. Patience is the key for Östlund. The other is an 18yr old playing in probably the 3rd best league in the world. A league where most rookies are 2 years older than him. So he's doing pretty good. Helenius has middle 6, 50pt winger written all over him imo. That would be a great pickup at 14 in that draft.

Hey look, a hockey game to ring in the new year. The 21-13-3 Stars, have a +23 goal differential and were just fined 100k for a cba practice violation because unlike the 14-19-4 Sabres, the Stars would literally rather get fined than cancel a practice. My guess is the palm 🌴 really help there. Anyways, happy new year. ✨️

Maxim Strbak just got the game winner for Slovakia.

UPL!

Go Bills!

Lines according to Lance Sabres' lineup in St. Louis: Zucker-Thompson-Tuch Quinn-Cozens-Peterka Benson-Kulich-Krebs Malenstyn-McLeod-Lafferty Dahlin-Byram Samuelsson-Power Bryson-Clifton UPL Jokiharju took warmup but wasn't involved in rushes.

Matthew Schaefer broke his collarbone. Probably won't hurt his draft stock too much but he's out 6 weeks.

2-3 more years
