He was watching practice from the tunnel.

No you wouldn't. You would have been in here when they announced Dahlin on day 1 saying stuff like "Ruff should have waited until they went to Europe to see who is really the leader and get a feel etc..." Besides, the leaders on the team are already amplifying the message. A letter on your jersey doesn't make you a leader.

That's true, just was interesting to see their splits and what they could be.

For comparison to a team that we are competing against: Detroits Lines Peterka-Thompson-Tuch OR DeBrincat-Larkin-Raymond Benson/Kulich-Cozens-Quinn OR Rasmussen-Copp-Fischer Zucker-McLeod-Greenway OR Chiasson-Danielson-Ratcliffe Malenstyn-Lafferty-NAK (Krebs mixing in) OR Brandsegg-Nygård -Kasper-Hanas

Nope, looked it up. Benson subbed out for Kulich according to reports.

Probably Greenway spot.

Peyton Krebs signs 2 year 1.45 million AAV contract
LGR4GM replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
The Savoie trade wasn't an overpayment. It could be in time but as currently stands, that was fair value. -
Getting ready: are players in town working out yet?

Omg! Sabres not at rink but out golfing! Think of the children! -

The Sabres have 7 million left in cap space. That's a lot. -

Probably not but maybe. I think at 1.75 he would be but at that, idk. -

That's about .20 too much IMPO. 1.25 for 2 years sounds better but whatever. At least it is 2 years so you have control and if he hits, cool and if he doesn't you can trade him or waive him or bench him. To me, that screams "he's gonna start on our 4th line" but I guess camp will decide. Malestyn is 1.35 Kubel is 1.5 Lafferty is 2.0 -
Not really no. This is the worst narrative on this board and it gets repeated ad nauseam. The tenacity part is just flat out ***** tbh. Which of these players are not tenacious? Helenius, Östlund, Ziemer, Benson, Wahlberg, Kulich? What about Poltapov? Size in the modern NHL is about leverage and using leverage to get inside on players. We need to stop equating size with tenacity or toughness or grit or whatever other word we are using. Who is a more tenacious player? Owen Power or Zach Benson?

The Sabres brought 7 defenders in for this: Simon Pier-Brunet, No. 43, Jack Bodin, No. 65, Ryan Johnson, No. 33, Vsevolod Komarov, No. 76, Noah Laaouan, No. 46, Nikita Novikov, No. 91, Norwin Panocha, No. 74 I put in bold the players Buffalo drafted or are "in the system" so to speak. That is 5 players we drafted and it leaves out the following defenders that Buffalo has drafted but were not here: Adam Kleber (2nd), Luke Osburn (4th), Patrick Geary (6th), Maxim Strbak (2nd), Gavin McCarthy (3rd), Sean Keohane (6th). Buffalo had an entire 2nd defense that simply wasn't here. So no they don't need more defensive prospects. Kleber, Strbak, and McCarthy are all hard players with NHL shots and would have easily made the prospect team better. Considering the injuries the prospect team had at defense, not much of a surprise with the outcome of the final, but it was a fun game. The bolded pitts comment to me is just bizarre. "Look more like NHL bound" as opposed to who? Kulich, Helenius, Novikov, Komarov, Wahlberg, Östlund, Johnson? It is strange you pick out Avery when I thought Tullio and Avery played somewhat similar games. On the Pens roster, Beck, Broz, Howe, Koivunen, Yager, Brunicke and Pickering are probably NHL players at some point, not sure how many stick but could say the same for Buffalo. "Pittsburgh on the other hand..." just makes it sound like you watched an entirely different game than I did. These looked like a pre-season prospects tournament with lots of mistakes and breakdowns across the board and on both sides. I didn't a see a Pitt team that was some more physical than Buffalo. Bottom line, you can't draw too much from a prospects tournament. I remember several years ago Metaj Pekar was the darling of one of these because he was feisty and hit stuff, he was never heard from again.

You're a jerk and have been getting worse and worse the last year. I don't think I'm the only one and considering all the trash posters in here who thump their chests whenever they are even mildly right, thxs. 15ppl versus 6 but sure, what you said. Thorny the magnificent, all hail. Careful though, it's lonely at the top of that pedestal you're on.

When he's a ppg player and drops 40g ppl will be shocked. No need to be a dick about what I said.

He's gonna to shock ppl around here. Disagree.

Tyler Tullio was ranked 38th by EP in his draft year and was 5'9". Now at 5'11" and with more muscle, I wonder if he's a dark horse to be in the bottom of the Sabres lineup later in the year. He's played very well in the tournament. -

That's awful. Sorry but the point of being the leader is that you are responsible for standing up in front. This sounds like too many cooks and it won't work.
