I don’t think so but we’ll see. It was always the plan to get UPL into Roch. this season after he rehabs. Which, he has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just float away. With the rest of the garbage. Then what? Then we've got to find ourselves a new backup goalie. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottysabres Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 UPL looking good in the E, maybe it translates to the A and allows him to further his development. Hoping that is the case. UPL and Mittlestadt in the same uniform, on the same roster...……………..is this what the future of the Sabres looks like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or call up Hammond and let UPL and Johansson split games in Rochester. Hammond looked like garbage on Friday. Bring up Johansson when they want to give Ullmark a night off.

Would demoting Hutton to the A make him lose his love for the game? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pi2000 Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 There is no chance Buffalo waives Hutton. This organization is more concerned with appeasing players than icing a winning team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

French Collection Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 This is where he belongs, the ECHL is clearly not enough of a challenge for him. Let’s hope JBOT makes the right goalie moves to give him plenty of games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Hmm, so UPL is going to Roch just for the week? Interesting. I’m fine with it. He is just 20 and coming off a big surgery. No need to push him too hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triumph_communes Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 If Johansson really is playing stellar then Buffalo sure could use him. Hutton laid a total egg this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apuszczalowski Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 The Kid has shined in every league he has played in during his brief time in North America and at last years Juniors. I wouldn't be surprised if he looked like he belonged in the AHL too. As for Hutton, I don't know why anyone would be shocked, the Sabres picked him up as a 30 year old who came off of one good season (and the only one where he played close to a full workload for a starter).

Yup, and fwiw, Jordan Binnington also played a full season in the ECHL after leaving junior hockey. He played 40 games for Kalamazoo. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This organization is more concerned with appeasing players than icing a winning team. Maybe in part but if there were no cap implications it would be much easier. The hard salary cap has also created the alleged perception of appeasement maybe more then anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
