That third line is intriguing, their skill sets might play off each other perfectly. Ryan Johnson sitting for Clague would be a travesty. His GF and Her Family are from Minnesota and will be in attendance. Plus He was teammates with Fabbro from Minnesota. And as Donny pointed out in the post game presser, Barkov slashed Johnson across the hands before stealing the puck on the first goal

Are they on the seven team M-NTC? He is playing good, but I would aim for Rasmus Anderson from Calgary Quote

This is from Lance Lysowski’s Mailbag in the Buffalo News. It backs up that Pegula stays out of the final draft day decisions

Per Sabres PR

3-0 ENG

Pegula does set parameters for the team in terms of total spending, authorizes the contract extensions and is kept informed by Adams on a daily basis. He used to be much more involved in decision making, this is how the Sabres ended with Alex Nylander over Charlie McAvoy or Chychurn, McAvoy even told Jerry Forton he thought the Sabres were taking him. Since Kim Pegula’s Medical Issues, he has taken a step back from the day to day decision making as he has a large amount of trust in Adams. He does have His Roster favorites as reported by Jeff Marek (Zemgus and Peterka) so there was some misplaced sentimental feelings that went into re-signing both Zemgus and KO without adding any other experienced forwards. He does let the scouting staff make the final decisions on draft picks though. From various accounts, Adams does do a good job of insulating the Hockey Ops Department from Him and allows them to do their jobs.

This was reported at the time, but Adams had been embedded with team for a few months before the actual firing occurred. He was around the locker room and traveled on the team charter for a few road trips. The writing was on the wall that a change was coming imo. One of Adams first goals was to expand the analytics department when he took over. It took Pegula almost a year to approve it though. There is a rumor that this will be the last year the team operates under a budget restriction as Pegula is still attempting to recover from pandemic losses. Yes they have signed young players but they have remained at the bottom of the NHL in terms of salary cap spending for three seasons. They have not taken on any bad contracts in exchange for assets nor have they been a third team broker at the TDL either.

Absolutely
