  1. Dahlin and McAvoy are a wash but I think Dahlin is better. Lindholm and Power... probably Lindholm until power proves otherwise Carlo and Byram, they are different but Carlo is better def and Byram better offense. Carlo though is better. Zadorov and Samuelsson, I'll go Samuelsson because he's better defensively Peeke and Jokiharju... uhhh idk Peeke unless joki plays at his peak Clifton and Lohrei, edge Clifton but I've not seen enough lohrei Talent wise, Buffalo has more offensive talent in their defense but Boston, has better defense. Boston 100% gets the benefit of the doubt until Buffalo proves otherwise. I think Buffalo has more depth. Boston has a far better system to this point so we shall see. Buffalo's issue last year wasn't defense per say but forwards being trash at their assignments.
  2. Östlund needs about 20lbs and he'll be g2g.
  3. There's too many preseason games. It's stupid. Should be 3 max.
  4. Don't encourage anyone to watch. But here it is.
  5. I've seen the video, I think he tore things... all the things.
  6. Doubt it. Power hasn't been an A or C since he was in U17 AAA.
  7. Reports out of Asheville aren't good. Massive flooding and possibly 1 dam failure.
  8. Zach Benson has no ceiling, Zach Benson needs no ceiling.
  9. I mean... Reinhart literally scored the game winning goal in game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals.
  10. I might try to go
  11. Who was the last Captain to retire a Sabre?
  12. No it isn't. If you identify your captain and decide you have 4 others that are good leaders, creating a leadership team is just fine. I never hear this with football where sometimes you have like 4 or 5 captains on each side of the ball. I think the truth is simpler. You and others wanted 1 captain and 2 alternates. You got 4 alternates so now you have to explain why that is bad. But the truth is, we don't have any evidence it is bad or good yet. It just is.
  13. Interview with Captain Rasmus Dahlin
  14. They lost Ullmark though which should be a concern. Also, Swayman is still not signed which is a bit surprising. I think they look solid but outside of Pastrnak and McAvoy, not overly special anywhere.
  15. Nope. I have also never read or seen anything coming out of the Sabres or that locker room pre or post trade that Casey Mittelstadt was some kind of leader. We know he was the best golfer on the team... so that's something. But back to the OP, Mitts is certainly not an Alpha. Leadership isn't the only ingredient to getting into the playoffs. Also, the hand wringing over having home and away alternates is bizarre, why do any of you care about something so trivial.
  16. Who even are Bostons top 6? McAvoy, Lindholm, Carlo, Zadorov, Peeke, Lohrei ... man, looking over Bostons roster, it's not great.
  17. Lol calling Mittelstadt an alpha is peak homer vibes. Dude was perhaps the most laid back Sabres of the post Eichel era.
  18. I really really want it to work with Lindy.
  19. Voice of reason
  20. You realize it's only rotational in name only right? For the purposes of the games and nothing else? There's 4 alternates, only thing that changes is the jersey patch.
  21. I will believe it when I see it. I do not think either player will be NHLers for a long time (aka 5+ seasons).
  22. CoughPowerCough
  23. Win the games you play.
