  1. It's a dumb question because the cost would simply be too high.
  2. Which will mean they will have about $1.2 million left total to spend on 18 players.
  3. I just don't want you driving if your eyes are cattywampus.
  4. He practiced with Tage. I expect Tuch to sit and Savioe to skate in his place. If Tuch goes, I see him on the third line, in place of VO.
  5. Sign him in 2026 as a free agent. Done.
  6. I'm going to change my assessment. Victor Olofsson is the Orange Cat
  7. But multi-year? VO's contract is up this year.
  8. I agree, but I think that F depth will get better quickly as prospects develop and put meat on their bones.
  9. I can't say I'm surprised since they had Savoie on the Tage line. If they thought Tuch would be ready to go they would have put a placeholder on that line and had Savoie skate with the linemates he'll be with tomorrow.
  10. he doesn't fit the team identity. = Granato is trying to install a system that Olofsson just isn’t well suited for. These are essentially the same thing, innit?
  11. Skinner-Thompson-Savoie 👀 That kind of tells me that Tuch is out and Savoie will go on that line. If Tuch and Savoie will both be playing, I would have expected Savoie to be on another line with his "real" linemates, and placeholder like Jost or Olofsson (basically the 13th forward) to fill in temporarily for Tuch just for practice.
  12. This has been true for as long as I can remember.
  13. When I name Quadrophenia among my favorite albums, many people are not familiar with it. This is a documentary (a little long... an hour) about the making of the album, what inspired it, and a few points I wasn't aware of. I really think it is one of the finest albums ever made. The full double album
  14. You know who I mean, right?
  15. Newer arena? It's only 8 years newer...
  16. Would that shift the Sabres toward a situation similar to the one Edmonton is finding themselves in?
  17. If RyJo is a 7D you actually want to play (led team in time played against CAR), you can rotate him through the lineup, giving the other Ds maintenance days to keep them fresher as the season goes along. I figure Power and Dahlin won't be part of that rotation unless they're dinged up, but it could take the pressure off Muel to be The Man alongside Dahlin and maybe he won't get injured as much.
  18. Right, but you have to read the situation. Attacking, stay in, but if the puck comes out, take the opportunity to change. It's situation dependent.
  19. They wouldn't have gotten the Tuch opportunity, but they would have had fresh legs. We know which was more important now, and in the past the team has made a choice different than last night; it's typical for the Sabres to roll shift after shift in OT and maintain possession.
