  1. If Dahlin stays back yes but he needs to be part of the offense, why we need great 1 dimensional to be with Power and Dahlin
  2. see KNEW assistant coaches
  3. Middlestat has to go, need more goals, more upside there.
  4. No to Clague at Sabres level and if that is your second line, not making Playoffs. Be 13. The second Line needs a proven scorer because Quinn isn't there yet. Be OK if Tuch goes there with Peterka and Quinn to top line. But if TAGE says no then go get a Vet Winger like Tuch.
  5. probably traded depending if Sabres are willing to get a good Vet Goalie to bring Levi along
  6. Pegula to Adams/Granto WHY IS MY STADIUM EMPTY?????
  7. Barasso Levi needs to be behind a real number 1 for a year in NHL. Good older Vet wouldn't be a issue if he isn't 41.
  8. Wouldn't worry about Levi, worry about UPL and Comrie being on your team next year as #1's
  9. How would you describe Joki? I see him as a cheaper Offensive defensiveman. Not a 1 dimensional player or a lock down defensiveman. That makes him a bad pairing with Dahlin or Power long term. Sam also is two way but seems to work well with Dahlin. We have few stay at home guys that are great doing that.
  10. You can do that anytime? If a certain team has a guy you like and they say they want this guy, make the trade and do another if you need to shore up. Not many trades were you get a perfect fit for a Power or Dahlin. We have Wingers and Centers to give.
  11. Could be done today though there are not as many great tough guys like there use to be. How good would the Ramsey's look with Dahlin and Power today! If you don't have defense, then you need TWO very good Goalies
  12. We need great One Dimensional defensiveman that can go with Dahlin and Power. Put Sam and Jok together than, be a good third pair. Stillman and Lyb your backups.
  13. Sabres need both when Dahlin and Power lean so heavy with offense. Who really is your LOCK DOWN defensiveman?
  14. Problem we have know is the style needs 3 lines producing goals. Our first line has been bad for 10 games or so collectively. Not enough goals through that time produced, hence the record. This group needed to learn Defense. Would have helped the Goaltending. Instead we may have hurt Peterka development and maybe Krebs. Quinn seems to be fine but growth has been slow. This is on Granto!
  15. We have needed Defense Veteran Leadership for awhile, two Veteran Leaders for line 2 + 3 and a Goalie. Okoposo and Girg have been here long enough and Culture hasn't changed enough. Like Tuch, Tage, Dahlin as possible Captains and/or Combination. These needs were there the beginning of the year, now they are a Must or your breeding a LOSING CULTURE again! Saros could help develop Levi, similar size and play. Play them both and get rid of the 3 we have now.
  16. Give up Peterka and UPL
  17. Think Savoie and Kulich makes team in 2023. Trade Peterka or Krebs First. Already know what they can do. If you can get Saros without trading Top Line, Cozens, Quinn, Dahlin, Power, Levi, Kulich and Savoie then do it.
  18. This playoff trend is starting to head toward last year. Last year Sabres were winning after Allstar game. This year we are losing. Sabres are NOT getting better, two top players are trending down in Tage and Dahlin. Not listening to Adams or Granto. Failed to offer REAL HELP in push to playoffs.
  19. Definitely needs to stop protecting the players. You sign a NHL 2nd Contract, YOU MUST PRODUCE
  20. Gave Ullmark 5-6 years, then didn't sign him
  21. I am NOT disagreeing with how he got contract or that he won't full fill it. But would you say he has lived up to contract in a race to get to playoffs with the last 10 games. Actually, few have on the team but Cozens is the #2 Center. It is NOT fair, very young, but to a Sabres fan, seen this before with Eichel and O'Reilly, shipped off. Cozens has been very bad last 10 games and yes he has scored goals. But his plus/minus is 2, way behind our other 5 Star players. Three close loses last 5 games that we could have won and I remember Cozens face on bad plays. Goal production of the line doesn't match defensive liabilities, not all of Cozens fault. Actually blame Adams for this, Quinn should stay but a Veteran Winger is needed like Tuch for Cozens, not Greenway. A shame the Sabres didn't trade for something better than Stillman and Greenway. They would be fine if Sabres didn't have 5-6 guys that didn't score that often. When top line shuts down their isn't enough production.
  22. If it was up to Adams, he would give UPL all of next year as two and get a #1. Levi won't sign unless given a shot as Backup, nor should he. Buffalo has TOO many prospects, gonna add a bunch this summer. Where they all gonna go? Sabres just gonna cut Comrie? Can't trade him, done nothing really and his last game was 10-4 loss kept in by his COACH. Who does that to someone they respect? I can see end of year presser, Adams balling his eyes out he needs more time. Now Pegula, he will see fans not coming to Sabres home game wins under 50%. He will care less about the Prospects feeling and especially those who had a year to prove themselves on NHL Club. He will demand certain replacements, Goalie, depth on defense, Wingers for 2nd and 3rd lines Pegula will demand Playoffs or BUST! UPL has a 1 way contract coming. Has to stay in Buffalo. Time to trade him for anything. Need a #1 Goalie by trade that has 1-2 years contract left, have Levi backup. Ask Comrie for an extension and two way contract, he should have NO complaints the way he played going to Rochester.
