  1. Yes, this is year 1 of Power's 7 year deal. His 8.35mil is probably the salary of a 50pt, 10g, top defender with good defensive metrics. Depending on his development over the summer, he could be that. I think having Dahlin around helps because it is another 1st overall defender he can not only lean on but share experience with. Lots to prove from our young Power.
  2. Curious to see Helenius in this since he has pro experience.
  3. Here's all I'll say about who we've played. You gotta win the games you play. The Jags lost by 3 to Miami and 6 to the Browns. They lost by 37 to Buffalo. Cardinals, smoked the rams and lost by 7 to the Lions. What I'm saying is I think Jacksonville is probably better than just their record although, they have major problems. The cardinals are probably better than a 1-2 team but again, win the games you play. If we look at buffalo's 3 wins, I think they are against 2 weak opponents and a potential wild card team. They dismantled all 3 on offense and only had issues with 1 on defense... for 1 half. We'll know in 3 weeks who Buffalo is I think. Ravens, Texans, Jets all road games and then we also have a resurgent Seattle on the road. If you go even 3-2 in the next 5 games, we're doing good. We manage somethin better like 5-0... I don't even know but I'd be open to saying Buffalo is the best team. One game at a time. Next up, Baltimore.
  4. Sabres rolling out the AHL lineup for this away tilt against the Pens.
  5. To me, and this a personal thing not a this is how it was, the best part of the Benson assist is how he initiates contact with the defender which prepares the space Benson wants to pass through. Engages the defender, uses his smaller stance to get leverage and initiate a tight turn, adjust as he slips the pass across to make it accurate. I love Zach Benson. He should not have dropped to the teens, he's too damn good at too damn much.
  6. Sometimes I think how Torrence fell to Buffalo last year, then I smile.
  7. Josh. Allen.
  8. Yes these are both AHL teams Buffalo should level. But they are actually winning by wide margins, that's nice. Lots of work still to go but at least we aren't asking why they weren't able to beat AHL guys.
  9. Suggesting Rasmus Dahlin of all people doesn't show up consistently and compete, is a choice. I disagree wholeheartedly with that notion.
  10. The only solution currently would be to put Quinn at center and move Cozens to RW.
  11. There's more to being good than having a good shot.
  12. Man, I just love Zach Benson. Really my favorite player at this point.
  13. I don't give Peterka enough love. Dude is a 2nd round pick who is just clutch. He's good everywhere and he's a got a deceptive shot. He might be the perfect compliment on that top line.
  14. I think Benson will be most improved but ppl will say Quinn by using point totals.
  15. Oh idk, I have a sneaky suspicious feeling that there might be a 19yr old our team with a hof chance.
  16. We won a game we should win. Good, onto the next.
  17. One of the very smartest players I've ever watched.
  18. Zach Benson hasn't met an opposing player he won't forecheck
  19. That Peterka guy is pretty good
  20. It's not missing at all. Look at all the bolded players. You thought all them would be HoF candidates when they were those ages? I doubt that. So you're biasing your own analysis because you have years of more data to make your claim.
