Sabres Fan in NS Posted October 13, 2021 Report Posted October 13, 2021 I'm not going to predict a bunch of things, sorry GA. All I will say is this group of Sabres will surprise a lot of people, including many of the fans. They will play hard and will give a good effort every night. They won't win enough to make the playoffs, but they will win a lot. 2 1 Quote

Doohicksie Posted March 31, 2022 Report Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) How did I do? 1) Leading scorers - Goals, Assists and Points Skinner - 32/18/50 - pretty close Olofsson - 26/20/46 - If he'd stayed healthy, maybe. He's on an 82-game pace for 20/27/47. Mitts- 24/30/54 - If he'd stayed healthy.... 2) Team record 41-33-9 for 91 points.... just missing the playoffs - Yes, Optimism is my middle name 3) Team MVP Mitts - Nope.... Tage or Dahlin would have been better choices, possibly Anderson 4) Team ROY JJP - Nope... Muel in my opinion. 5) First Player traded Eichel (okay, after him Miller)... I was half right. 6) First player recalled from Rochester JJP - Who was the first callup? I don't remember... EDIT: Murray 7) Surprising in season move (trade or acquistion) The NHL debut of Devon Levi - incomplete. Could still happen 8.) Best surprise player Tage Thompson - Bingo. Although Dahlin has also been a pleasant surprise 9) Biggest disappointment Dahlin... he will be okay but not great which will make the fans furious. - So glad to be wrong here. I would say that Dell is probably the biggest disappointment but it was probably wrong to expect anything from him. Edited March 31, 2022 by The Ghost of Yuri 1 Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted March 31, 2022 Author Report Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) Not much. I got Murray being 1st recall correct. I had Dahlin as my team MVP and having 45 assists this season. Got the MVP right and still have a chance on the assists. Sabres need another 6 wins to match my predicted win total. I said KA would acquire a goalie because Anderson got hurt and UPL and Dell were struggling. I said Bryson would out perform Butcher (which he has), but I thought (hoped) Ka would trade Butcher away because of it. I complete blew it on Hagg, R2, JJP, Mitts and Cozens, although JJP has carried the Amerks at times this season. I never saw Thompson's season coming. Also KA did much better in the trade for Jack then I thought. I had Jack going for a conditional 1st, a medium prospect, a 2nd conditional pick and a cap dump. I got the picks mostly right, but Krebs is a grade A prospect and the predicted cap dump instead became a top 6 forward in Tuch. Edited March 31, 2022 by GASabresIUFAN Quote

Best surprise player-Asplund 9) Biggest disappointment-Cozens 5 or more guys will score atleast 15 goals I hit on the few that are bolded. Tuch, and to a lesser extent Krebs have provided a definite spark. I'm a few goals away from 2 players to reach my 5 players with 15 goals prediction. Dahlin could still reach 47 assists. Quote

DarthEbriate Posted March 31, 2022 Report Posted March 31, 2022 I'm happy to be wrong on many of my pessimistic predictions. Bjork hasn't been waived/traded... though. But I stand by that one. 1 1 Quote
