GDT: Prospects, Montreal v. Buffalo, 7pm on Sabres.com 9/15/2022

[Doohicksie]

Watching via the FB feed.

I have my McAfee VPN on, not sure if that's part of it.

…er, Burke SCORES! 

[DarthEbriate]

Yup, Slafkovsky looks like a top pick. Smooth, deceptively big.

[Kr632]

Rosen looks bigger than I thought 

[DarthEbriate]

Weissbach looks like an AHLer among juniors. Game is slower for him.

[LGR4GM]

Owen Beck, I miss you. 

[PromoTheRobot]

Not bad.

[bob_sauve28]

its hockey 

[Flashsabre]

I wouldn’t read too much into this weekend. Most guys haven’t played in a couple months and they have had one real practice as a group.

Watch for fun but don’t read a ton into these games.

No! More D-zone faceoff prowess. Block all the shots. Maintain positive Corsi. And if you're a minus at the end of the night, you're clearly a draft bust.

I remember you liked him a lot. I would still take Kulich but Beck is a very good player.

Meanwhile Adams says Granato told them to play fearless.

Does Adams’ jacket have an all blue logo or was the logo ripped off? Weird

Same, I will always miss Beck a little. He's a lot of fun.

okay, I thought I was the only one looking at that like "wtf"?

[Spoonman]

So on Sabres feed (if not watching), Adams said on interview w Duffer - players told to play fast and be aggressive. No structure really. Looking for calmness in game, puck protection, body usage, what they do w/o puck…. Just a part of process & development over time….. Patience my youn Padewans! 👽

[LGR4GM]

Komarov is a 6'3" RHD and russian and Novikov is a 6'4" LHD and russian. That will be fun when both are on the blue line together.

Notice no numbers or refs sweaters…. Guessing they are college or local guys? IDK….maybe number is Velcro’d on! 

[dudacek]

Guys playing too fast for their skill level.

Not pretty, but entertaining.

Kisakov looks like a sly bastard out there.

I'm frustrated. They finally have "Watch Live" on the homepage, but when you click it, it just lists news.  Anyone else have any success or am I just being impatient after too many months without my Sabres?

I think many of us were feeling the same way until @PromoTheRobotsaved the day. 

[DarthEbriate]

Kozak with a nice tip-in from fellow WHLer Lindgren for the lead. But will Kozak make the Amerks? TBD

[Spoonman]

Kozak from Deion !!! He SCORES!!!!!

[LGR4GM]

 

[LGR4GM]

Don't forget that Filip Mesar is also a first round pick. 

[dudacek]

I don't like Rosen's defence so far, but the kid has some skill.

Tough, tough shift for Lindgren
