Training camp questions #15: what will be the Housley effect?
Derrico replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
Anyone else worried we don't have the goaltender for this system? I like (don't love) Lehner. With our aggressive style it will inevitably lead to many odd man rushes per game which Lehner is notoriously poor in. I love this style and I know I will be more entertained this year but I wonder if we will be losing several 6-4 games, atleast early on. I think the big Johnston may be starting by December. Just something running through my mind 4 glasses of wine in on a September night.... -
I would switch Bailey and Baptiste but that's splitting hairs. I would say numbers 2 to 7 all have a reasonable chance of playing atleast a few games with the Sabres.

I think the Guhle prediction is right on.

Well this makes the Pysyk trade much more palatable.

This. Well said. -
That is just the greatest.

Liger!! I thought of that exact same song when I read the title and have literally had it in my head the past two hours because of it. Atleast I know the words now.

Training camp questions #14: who will surprise us?
Derrico replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
@Bob I disagree that Jake was rushed. I argued two camps ago that I thought he would be the biggest surprise and was ready for the show. He was drafted in 2012 (#44 overall) and played 2 full seasons for the University of Wisconsin plus an entire year for Rochester in his 3rd post draft season. So he had 3 full seasons of high quality hockey prior to the permanent jump. He was 22 when he started playing full time. Let's compare that to Guhle who was sent back two straight OHL years and some are saying let him play atleast one season in Roch. I'm on board with that and it will also give him 3 post draft years of development prior to the NHL if he plays the whole year in Roch. A guy like Zadorov is who they screwed around. He got sent back to the OHL for one season post draft before making the Sabres full time. Don't get me started on Grigorenko.... -
You better get that flow back by the meetup!!

Jake McCabe. We all like his game. Phil Housley loved his game when he coached Team USA at the WJC making him team captain. I think he already has a ton of confidence in him. That is going to lead to bigger minutes. I can't wait to see what Phil has in store for Jake. I like the Bogo answer as well. He would be my second choice. -
Booooooooo. Sorry force of habit boing the commissioner. I'm down for whatever scoring changes you guys want. I like the idea of utilizing the free agent pool and having several add and drops per week. Most nights of the week I'm free for the draft. If it could be 830 or later that would be appreciated.

Hhahahahaha I bet.
-
Well that's a dumb rule. So you get unlucky and draft say 5th then you miss out on the top picks and you don't get a high waiver wire pick even if you get demoed week 1?

Thanks Dark. I was in Blue last year, I'll give it a go again. -
Hahhahaha Wildcard. If you grabbed him in your other two leagues that means you either A) started both of those leagues 0-1 and probably lost bad as to have a high waiver wire position or B) Play in a non competitive league with dumb ass owners.

I'll join if there's room. -
If you're in week 10 and haven't put in a waiver claim you aren't trying hard enough hahahahha.
-
Sorry guys, too late on both counts. Waiver wire is set so the team ranked the lowest gets first priority. Also, the wait time is in place so everyone has a chance to submit their claims rather than sitting at their computer and submitting it immediately on Sunday. It's the same settings as every other league including yahoo leagues.

Ya I was surprised how good he looked.

3 percent odds of winning it all....so your saying there's a chance!!
