LTS Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 Nylander not participating in on-ice drills. Maybe he's part of the rumored O'Reilly deal and they don't want him to get injured? He's not injured again is he? Didn't he miss last year and training camp as well? Quote
Thorner Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 It’s interesting how the roster has gone from being forward heavy to now tilting toward the D. One player I’m watching this year is Casey Fitzgerald, after Botterill mentioned him The other day. I was kind of expecting him to sign this spring. He graduates next spring and is a flight risk, not that I’ve heard any whispers about him intending to go to UFA. Yup, good balance. I count 20 forwards, 18 d-men, and 4 goalies. Quote

LGR4GM Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 at about the 10second mark he starts from a dead stop to skating backwards at full speed... mother of god. https://twitter.com/i/status/1012051699278798848 Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 I think I've said it before, but if I haven't, I will now: if you can't be stupid excited for Dahlin, you're dead inside. Quote
LGR4GM Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 His skating is sublime. Just effortless in any direction he feels like. Quote

Agreed. I love seeing him in a Sabres jersey now. Can't wait to see the practices where he goes up against Jack Thanks Wildcard!! What a package :beer: Quote
WildCard Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 @ByMHarrington #Sabres Assistant GM Steve Greeley says some guys will stay off ice from time to time to be sure they’re 100 percent. Nylander not expected to skate in this camp @GregVorse Guhle says he and Dahlin are roommates #Sabres #SabresDevCamp Quote
LGR4GM Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 I like them as roommates. I was worried they would put Dahlin with another Swede. Kid needs to learn and be comfortable. Quote

Nylander not expected to skate in this camp That sounds like complete and utter . He was healthy to finish the year and reportedly working out hard just a few days ago. If he was hurt, they’d say he tweaked something. If he had personal issues, he wouldn’t be there. He’s being traded. I will also note that Robert Thomas is not on the ice at Blues camp. “A non-serious leg injury from the end of his junior season. Just decided to hold him out.” Quote

Samson's Flow Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 Was about to post the Thomas thing too. IT"S HAPPENING Me too. It's a fun thing to watch the unexpected absences in the prospect/training camps and speculate off that. Quote
Crusader1969 Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 Was about to post the Thomas thing too. IT"S HAPPENING I thought Thomas was pretty much untouchable. Hope I'm wrong. Quote
dudacek Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 (edited) I thought Thomas was pretty much untouchable. Hope I'm wrong.You can’t be wrong. Alex Nylander is Swedish. Robert Thomas is a CHL product. Botterill would NEVER trade a Swede for a Canadian junior player. Edited June 27, 2018 by dudacek Quote

Botterill would NEVER trade a Swede for a Canadian junior player. Alex Nylander has been so disappointing, Botterill has stripped him of his heritage. Sort of like when Dark took away the A in Stafford's name. Quote
LGR4GM Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 Hamilton said Guhle was a better skater than Dahlin. So that's a thing that happened. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 Hamilton said Guhle was a better skater than Dahlin. So that's a thing that happened. I honestly don't see how anyone could think otherwise. Quote
dudacek Posted June 27, 2018 Report Posted June 27, 2018 Hamilton probably thinks Guhle is better prospect than Dahlin. He certainly thinks he’s better than ROR. In fact, he is singularly responsible for making Guhle one of the most overrated prospects in Sabre history. Quote
