Flashsabre

The same spot that Dahlin and Cozens teamed up on that play to tie the Bruins late in the game last season.

It was a tough series for the Leafs. I think they deserved better. Nylander was hurt the first half of the series, Matthews the second half. Finally found a reliable goalie in Woll and he is injured for Game 7. Both goals were bad by Samsonov. Marner has to go. Tavares they will let walk in UFA after next year. Their PP was 1 for 21 which is unbelievable with that talent they have. Nylander was their best player when healthy, Domi and Knies were very good too. 8 years as a group, 1 playoff series win. I don’t think Keefe can be back either. Boston was right there for the taking. They can’t create offence to save their lives.

I wouldn’t touch Dubois if he was free. Absolute no effort cancer. He is exactly what the Sabres don’t want to be. LA knew this when he pushed his way out of Columbus to Winnipeg and played his way out of there. Imagine trading prime assets for a 25 year old 6’3, 220 pound centre, signing him to an 8 year big money deal and considering buying him out after a single season and taking a 14 year cap hit.

I would have Kulich and #11 pick on the table for the right piece. Either a long term partner for Power or a top 6 forward with some physicality to his game.

You can have a conversation without the obnoxious attitude mixed in. But you stick with that if it helps you get through your day.

Who is he? I just saw the tweet and thought it was interesting but I have no idea who that guy is.

I’m sorry. Didn’t realize these teenagers should already be dominating the NHL. They are developing nicely which will help organizational winning when they are ready to come up and help the lineup or be used as trade chips to bring in other pieces to help them win games.

If Skinner was making $3 million no one would care. He is taking up $ 9 million which is the big issue. He’s a one trick pony who is paid like a superstar. That is the issue.

It’s not just teenagers. There is a good balance but they are developing a lot of kids which a farm team should be. Wahlberg and Östlund just joined in the past couple weeks. At the end of the day Syracuse has a couple players that could help the Lightning. The Sabres probably have 8 that can be Sabres or NHL players on other teams if traded. They play hard. Peterka, Muel and Quinn have graduated from the Amerks and have become solid Sabres. Kulich, Rosen, Neuchev, Östlund, Wahlberg, R Johnson, Novikov, Levi are the next wave. Savoie and Komarov should be joining next year. The Amerks model is working for the kids.

Canadian RHD Henry Mews has made a lot of head scratching decisions at the U18s Gavin McKenna who is Bedard’s cousin by marriage is 16 and is unbelievable at the U18s. He is 2026 draft eligible but Button said today if he was in this draft he would go 1 or 2 behind 18 year old Celebrini.

Huh. Have you watched any of the games or is just dumping on the organization because you enjoy it? If you think a handful of teenagers should be running over a bunch of quality AHL bets then I don’t know what to tell you.

Levi is in God Mode! This is fantastic development for him. I have to say I really like the battle in Neuchev. He doesn’t back down and gets his nose dirty for a smaller super skilled guy

If he wanted Lindy and hired Lindy I have no problem with that. But to make a public statement that you talked to all these people make you look like a moron. You know reporters and insiders are going to ask available coaches if they talked to Buffalo. Just makes the whole operation look like a joke. Instead just say “Lindy was the guy I was focused on. From past history together I knew he had every attribute I was looking for and knew we could work together to right the ship.”

“In a couple years” is literally in the first sentence

IF he became available and actually wanted to come here then you just bump Lindy upstairs where he will be in a couple years anyways.

Novikov-Komarov could be a hell of a third pairing in a couple years. Byram-Dahlin Power- ? Novikov- Komarov Ryan Johnson use assets like Muel, Joker, Clifton, young forward prospects to find that long term RHD partner for Power. Or sign a Demelo or Roy this offseason.

https://www.tsn.ca/nhl/report-rod-brind-amour-unsure-on-his-future-with-carolina-hurricanes-1.2113947 Wow, interesting. ”No, you guys misunderstood, Lindy was brought in to work in the front office. Here is our new Head Coach Rod Brindamour” I have heard a couple times now that Rod is not a fan of Pegula at all so even if available I doubt he would come to Buffalo.

Look out for Bennett Senneke from the Oshawa Generals. I see a Jack Quinn like rise for this kid. He is killing it in the playoffs. Naturally talented RW who I think goes higher than a lot of people think.

Leafs can’t win at home but man if they gutted out a game 6 win then the amount of pressure on Boston in Game 7 to not blow back to back 3-1 series leads would make that game fascinating to watch

You would think something has to give on the Isle. Brock Nelson would be a real nice fit for this team. One year from ufa. Big character Centre that produces, can play physical. Fit in as the 2/3 centre.

The only problem with Carrier is he makes Muel look like Doug Jarvis.

I would still trade #11 for an impact player this year but if no trade is viable they will get another good player.

I would rather the Lightning sign him and we trade for Cirelli and Jeannot.
