Unless there was a reason he had to otherwise....I wish GMKA had held off on the Bishop trade. With the way some of these teams are spending on UFA's and extending their existing rosters, some have to be looking for ways (trading partners) to free-up cap space.

"Average" could be an improvement for us!

Hoping this guy can show some value on the penalty kills. I don't know him well, but wondering if he could be more effective than Joki on the PK?

Can't see GMKA trading or signing another goalie now, except maybe for Rochester. Comrie has a reputation for being a hard worker. Don't think GMKA is done for today, maybe still looking for a 4C before the day is done?

Found this read from earlier: https://www.allaboutthejersey.com/2022/6/16/23170864/ufa-preview-ilya-mikheyev-and-ilya-lyubushkin

Maybe add in Carter Hart and it could be interesting...

I don't understand the high grades for the 2018 draft. We had 1OA, Dahlin was the consensus #1 pick....what else were we going to do? Samuelsson I like, but the rest of the 2018 draft was a tire fire.

Are you thinking the player himself is a wasted pick (will never amount to anything) or rather when that player was selected (too early)?

Chicago fans may boo him as well. Some are pissed because the Buffalo trade didn't happen (thanks to Murray)..and so that 7th overall was then used to get DeBrincat instead.

I like Fitz's spirit, but his talent is borderline NHL caliber. Well suited for AHL play, but we need to find more NHL level RHD's.

Joki is not a top 4 D on most playoff caliber teams...but in our case he is because we don't have anybody better. I hope we can eventually do better and have him in the 3rd pairing where he is better suited.

I am glad he's coming back. I was skeptical at first, but he plays bigger than his size. I also thought he was nimble enough to play the right side when needed. If I had to choose between Bryson or Pilut returning......I pick Bryson.

I would not care so much except for the fact we expended a 1st rounder for him....GM JBOT wasted pick.

Maybe this can work in our favor if we are potentially shopping rights to Portillo. The league in general seems to be weak for elite netminders.

Another trade for cap space....wondering if GMKA is not being aggressive enough tonight?

Yvonne wasn't so bad as a Lambert on Buffalo some time ago.

Well, your gut was right about Ostlund!!!

Either no...SJ will pick him OR Yes, but GMKA will pass for some reason Either way, he won't be a Sabre....but we'll see!

Part of me wishes Buffalo made that kind of a trade with Toronto.

Maybe less of a reach than Rosen last year????

Maybe the start of a run on the Russian players???

I was thinking I saw him at 28 for Buffalo....maybe.

Any comparison to Mitts? Faster or slower with the puck?

How does his game compare to Marco Rossi from the 2020 draft? I like that he's a right-hander

Asking for a friend....any opinions on how Savoie compares to Marco Rossi from a couple years ago?
