Shoutout to (one of) the original "concept" guy(s)!

"The concept of" is one of the better SabreSpace™ creations. (Was that a @Weave thing, or one of our many COVID-19 casualty posters?)

Right now we have the Concept of Dylan Cozens™, the Memory of the Concept of Lawrence Pilut™, the Rebirth of the Concept of Tage Thompson™ and the Wreckage of Casey Mittelstadt™.

Looks like the divorce of Jack and Sam is a done deal. 

Tage with Jack? Hmmm...seems like Tage carries the puck a lot, not sure if that will work with Jack and Hall, bit who knows? 

Ya, RK doesn't like Skinner? 

Tage can have a tendency to try to do too much with the puck.  I've seen other younger players like that really simplify their game and excel when playing with clearly better player.  I think there's a lot of potential if Tage could do the same.

At the risk of being immodest, I think I coined that one (Concept of Kassian). The alliteration made it pop.

Skinner - Ruotsalainen - Cozens

Now that might work. 

It certainly would, but something something about earning Your Ice Time for Ruotsalainen

Luke, The Concept Of will be with you... always.

We were early adopters for sure.  Don't recall who started it.  It's become a favorite of mine over the years.

Skinner had a very good year with Larsson last year, in about 80 minutes, I have Skinner getting about 5 pts per 60, almost Kahunnian.

Kahunnian 😀

Don't see how Lazar or Sheahan has earned theirs (ik you are saying that is kruger). At the start of every season all bubble guys should have to earn their spot again.

Anyone we want?

Sam Reinhart will be fine!

I wonder if players will be at the Bills playoff game?

The Bills set aside a little over 500 tickets for in-house and league use. Only about 6,200 were distributed to fans. I assume the Pegulas can let in whoever they want.

I'd guess with a game at 7 they won't be there. 

Kyle Williams should be there though IMPO

They can't do that to Skinner.  Not a chance after last years debacle.

Nothing, but they are vets are get the benefit of the doubt.

R2 is a rookie to the NHL, never played on NA Ice, they need to follow the Pilut Pathway for Him. 

PS I would start R2 on that line on Thursday and see how it goes 

[dudacek]

I'm really scared the Skinner contract is going to be a bigger blow to the Sabres than the ROR trade.

right and this is a reason I am skeptical of kruger.

Colour me interested.  

[LGR4GM]

We've got a big problem. Due to the prorated shortened season, Rasmus Dahlin only has 5 games left before he becomes waiver eligible... WHAT WILL WE DO!?!?
