  1. i think this is when the younger crowd would say "fafo"
  2. A lot of ranger fans seemed to like the guy 🤷‍♂️
  3. Couple of the defenders i could see with the Sabres. Johnson, Novikov, and potentially Metsa. However, the glut of last pairing defenseman the sabres have will probably prevent any of them from getting a real look this year. As far as the forwards go, I dont think anyone is ready to be promoted (aside from occasional injury callups). Closest are rosen and Ă–stlund. Edit: forgot kozak. Hes ready for a full time 4th line spot probably Goalie... levi
  4. Imo, they are marginally better after these moves. The big areas of improvement are coming from lyon and kesselring. Barring massive injury issues in our forwards, I think the scoring won't fall off precipitously. While defense and goaltending are improved with lyon and kesselring (with or without a bridge deal for byram). Even though they appear marginally improved on paper, it may be a paper tiger. The possibility of it blowing up in their face with a bunch of injury issues in the forward group though seems pretty high. Bunch of guys in our group that miss half the season yearly. Here's hoping those guys are all past it
  5. looks like a left handed puck mover/third pairing guy? the kevyn adams specialty
  6. Glad to see it. Entering next year with just Levi and upl would have been a major mistake
  7. Who goes out for the season first? Quinn, Norris, Greenway, or Sammie?
  8. twitter official. reading the replies has provided some entertainment. so thank you Sabres
  9. I saw that earlier. Cringeworthy, aside from Jerry Forton's Oscar worthy performance
  10. Kesselring feels like the type of player that people have been clamoring for. He fills a need for the Sabres. It's likely his worth to the Sabres specifically is greater than JJ's to the Sabres. However, I still feel like this return is underwhelming unless Doan ends up sticking and not just being a fourth line plug
  11. Im not going to overreact to this one until exact details of a trade become available. Byram for a late first is a bad trade. Hopefully they would be getting more for him than that
  12. I agree, I think they should trade Peterka. Given his ability on the powerplay is not great and his defense is also not great... I agree with @dudacek that there is a certain jeff skinner ish element to his game. Trading him now might be the best thing for both the team and player. If he goes somewhere with a coach that can get him to buy in on defense, he stands to improve a lot and make the sabres look silly. However, if he stays in buffalo and it is more of the same (likely with no change of coach), I'm not sure that's a player that you want to hitch yourself to long term with a massive contract. You should be getting a really good return for Peterka, so look for a trade that can either substantially improve our defense, our goalie situation, and/or our powerplay. If you can fix at least one of those things immediately with this trade, it should be a no brainer
  13. some links for those interested: discussion of some of Jarmo's big trades in Columbus: https://www.jacketscannon.com/jarmo-week-look-back-at-some-big-trades-saad-jones-panarin-duchene-gaborik-bjorkstrand-blue-jackets/ list of all the trades: https://www.nhltradetracker.com/user/trade_list_by_GM/Jarmo_Kekalainen/135
  14. not in love with the fact that he is reporting to KA instead of TP. but nevertheless happy they found someone willing to do all the thinking for KA
