I know there are a million threads on prospects and the Amerks, but I want to focus on Tim Schaller.

 

He was signed as a college free agent out of Providence. He turned 24 last Sunday, so he's not "young." Last season he had just 11 goals and 7 assists in 72 AHL games.

 

This season? Had 10 points through 16 games (4+6). His last two games: 4 goals and 5 assists.

 

His stats on the year are now 8-11-19 in 18 games. He's been playing extremely well.

 

 

Will he ever factor into the plans in Buffalo?

I gotta dig for the post, but I predicted in the summer Tim Schaller would see action in Buffalo this year and ahead of some of the more hyped players.

I'd rather him replace Mitchell or Hodgson.

Mitchell yes. Hodgson needs to start producing so they can move him and get something for him. He has shown the ability to do so in the past, now is not the time to sit him or whatever.

That's true. I was just thinking more about what I'd like to see than what's best.

Joel Armia is the revelation for me...Schaller is one of many bottom-6-type players they have in the system.

 

Armia is what they desperately need, which is why he is so intriguing to me.

Then he should replace Flynn. And quickly!

No one should replace Flynn, he's playing great!

Hodgson? I'm ok with that

What do you think of Phil Varone?

Looks like we might get a look at Schaller or Varone thanks to the McCormick injury.

 

Maybe... depends on how soon and/or how often they expect Kaleta to play.
