  1. Vladar has a little more AHL Success and he was the original target in the Hall to Boston Deal
  2. The Sabres, they already have better versions of Hanifin in Power and Dahlin, Hanifin is not very good defensively. Vladar would be a target though
  3. If Power’s Camp wants to go short term I wonder if the better option would be is to let the year play out and see what number they would be looking for long term next summer and see if the gap is closer between the two sides As a 10.2c RFA He doesn’t have arbitration rights and cannot receive an offer sheet so there is no risk
  4. Let Your Wife make the final decision
  5. Danny Gare and Jim Schofield
  6. The Sabres also have Dan Giardi as an Assistant Coach on Staff for the Defense. By His own choice he does not always travel with the team, but is at every home game and home practice to work with the Defense. Per Andrew Peters on ATW, yes I was desperate for something to listen to on the way home from the 1000 Islands yesterday, Peca was offered a position as an Assistant with the Sabres, the reason he did not take the position is he wanted to be behind the bench during games and the the team offered the coaches box, that’s why he went with NYR.
  7. I thought this Twitter Thread was very appropriate
  8. Tage or the Sabres could have waited one more year to sign a long term extension and had Tage elected to do so what would his leverage be this offseason? Only one of the two is worth nine million. The Sabres not only locked up Tage for less AAV, but they also have him under contract for additional three seasons. That’s better asset management in my book.
  9. To be fair smart organizations lock players into long term team friendly deals. Also being on a line with (at the time) an elite play driver in Patrick Kane certainly helped with those numbers. Chicago played a system which plays to his strengths, Ottawa did not. Guess which style Detroit plays? He had elite offensive metrics in Chicago, not so much in Ottawa. Last year his points per 60 minutes were lower than Tyson Jost. Detroit is betting that he is not a product of Chicago’s Offensive System, which is a gamble given the fact that Detroit scored less goals than Ottawa. Tage and Debrincat were drafted 14 selections apart, so comparing them is fair game. One was placed in a dynamic offensive system, the other coached by Ralph Krueger. One played his natural position, the other was asked to play a position he had not in a while. You know who would be an elite offensive play driver for Debrincat to play with? Tage Thompson. Hopefully Larkin can do the same for him, just not against Buffalo
  10. 28 fewer points, 733k more in AAV than Tage
  11. When Murray refused to waive for Buffalo 7OA was sent to Chicago. Even had Murray waived for the Sabres, 16th OA plus would have been sent
  12. They gave up 7th overalll for one year of Debrincat and a pick in the 14-22 range
  13. There is a correction factor for that built in. Besides Jokiharju would have been second to only Jake McCabe in terms of rankings of all those defenseman listed with this years fancy stats applied to the 2018-19 Season And for fun here was Dahlin and Samuelsson this year
