It’s not funny because they drafted Rosen, Savoie, Kulich, and Östlund in the first round - all centers. Will any be NHL centers? wingers? -

With Mitts gone we really have to improve on Cozens, Krebs, and Jost at center. They are thin up the middle. -

My eyes and experience told me that. Thanks for the data. Please share it with Granato and his defensive assistant coach. -

He may be wearing out but the Stars are all around the crease and in the slot. They seem to live there. UPL might need to get some Billy Smith in him. Billy would use his stick to clear the slot. Ah, the good old days. -

Byram skated with the puck to his corner and gave it away. WTF -

Tage should have shot. That pass had no chance. Clifton looked hooked to me. Replay that -

I would like to see them beat a very good team on the road tonight. No “pressure” of the home crowd - I can’t believe that’s a thing but apparently it is for these boys. Entertain me, and show the fan base that you care. -
Biggest Sabres issue - losing the 1st period badly too often
Pimlach replied to Big Guava's topic in The Aud Club
You missed my point. Terry thinks he is on par with the younger guys that he hires. He would be concerned an old vet like Trotz would blow him off. And none of his GMs, Murray, Botrill and especially Adams , were longtime AGMs. Even the “well respected “ part had limitations on their experience. These guys were all hired on the young side and were considered to be bright and capable, but GM is a stretch assignment for all of them. Maybe a far stretch. -

Terry does not hire old guys that know more than him. Adam’s, Bots, Murray all first timers and young. -

Pimlach replied to Big Guava's topic in The Aud Club
It is both. Coaches can effect it to a large extent but they can only do so much and that is when the internal leadership from the players has to kick in. Do you think Drury or Briere would allow the group to be consistently sleep walking through the first 10 minutes of the first period? Leadership is lacking if they are consistently not ready to play. Coaches and players are both part of the problem. CULTURE -
It looked to me that Mitts was the one center that could work with anyone. Can we stop trading 25 year old players just entering their prime? Meanwhile we have 21 year old Byram who is very similar to Power - still in his early development phase - he is a talent but not a savvy veteran defender that could help stabilize things. Byram might turn out to be very good, but the trade created a big hole for now that needs to be addressed, and we added a player that is very much like several others we already have. Diversity of skills is not something that Adams seems to be unaware of, or is just not too concerned with.

Figuring out how to use Skinner is a key because he probably is not going anywhere. You missed Samuelsson. If he is there and R Johnson is in the rotation it makes Joker expendable. We still need a big solid defensive defenseman in the top 4, I don't see that being Byram but that is who Adams brought in. His contract will be of huge importance. At forward the hole left by Mitts is massive. Cozens simply has to step up next year. I will bet that they are counting on Cozens, Krebs and a prospect to emerge. I prefer they bring in at least one solid veteran C. At wing they need a power forward and some muscle on the 3rd and 4th line. They are close. Some of the young players will improve. Another key is if Levi can play effectively as a backup and play 30 games at a high level. If he can, we should be good at goalie for a change.
