If Tuch plays with half the heart and enthusiasm Krebs does, he might be worth his minutes.
Has all the size and skills. Just depends on the game, the score, and the shift if he gives an honest effort. Know he’s active in the Buffalo community and that’s valuable, but it’s not helping the team on the ice.
Guessing it's near impossible to move the guy, but he would be at the top of my list. Tuch is exactly the wrong kind of veteran leader the Sabres need right now. Peterka, Quinn, Krebs, Kulich need a leader by example on the ice every night.
Zucker and McCoud show up most every game. Package Tuch with a prospect or draft choice and give me a couple more of this type of player in his mid 20’s who can score a 15+ goals. Better yet, get a bona fide Goaltender to compete with UPL and send Levi down to Rochester.
