Hell to the Yes

***** Yes!!

[Zamboni]

Niiiice ….

Do we really have to wait half the season to bump those three up?

[French Collection]

That’s ok, let him get acclimated to the organization and not feel the added pressure immediately.

It's going to be longer, because this team is going to be in the playoff hunt. (Barring injuries of course; the Sabres are definitely not prone to key injuries at the worst time.)

[LGR4GM]

Adams said it is about setting Krebs up for success. Their focus is on developing him to be better over time. 

[Stoner]

I'm not happy I won't get to see him. I like fresh meat. I do admire Adams for doing what appears to be the right thing. It's a tough spot for the team to be in vis a vis the fanbase. You just traded your franchise center, and there's nothing to see here, folks.

I’m in the belief the boost from these players is what’s needed to get into the playoffs.   Our goaltender is too suspect and the unprepared teams have warmed up.

I'll buy that.

[Taro T]

Surprised they aren't giving him a few game look see with the big club.

Am fine with it.  Just didn't expect it.

[CallawaySabres]

This is a great move, add another top 5 pick in the draft and try to land a goalie next Summer.

What a breath of fresh air to hear that from this team.

And please Peterka Krebs Quinn!!!

I’m still surprised Cozens is not with the Amerks.

When Olofsson & Mittelstadt are back he very well could find himself going down there.  Expect they'll move him to RW 1st, but maybe not.

I think most anyone who's paying attention to Sabres gets what KA's doing at this point and is on-board with the approach.....

[Norcal]

I could see Krebs with Biro and Weissbach to start.

Appert likes his muckers though so someone like Mersch or Murray will end up on his wing most likely. 

I'm not sure they should break up Malone and the kids just yet while it's working so well but that's where he might end up before too long.

Then don’t be like OSP and yours truly, and spring for the AHLTV package. 😂

We are finally under better management I think. This is absolutely the right move. We are stockpiling talent and developing. We have the right coach to do it. Hopefully in 2 seasons we will begin to see a significantly better team. Rochester is loaded.

Good, it’s where he belongs.

Is there any importance on the fact that Krebbs has played 9 games this year? If we see him on the Sabres at all this year, does that start something contract-wise?

Guess I should ask this here.

[DarthEbriate]

Good. Gooooooood.

I like this line, but I'd like Cozens in Quinn's spot better.

In time, I see Quinn on Mitts wing as a better fit.

Thinking ahead a little........

Peterka-Mitts-Quinn

Skinner-Krebs-Cozens

Olofsson-Thompson-Asplund

Future looking brighter.

Their next HOF goalie has already been added. I’m looking at you, Devon Levi!
