Don't do this to yourself, don't dare to dream our Sabres would actually make some moves to give us fans hope. No pain.....No gain? 🤣 Don't know whether to laugh or cry. Quote

Quinn's game off the wall is essential, and we're a much more fluid offensive group with him in the line-up. He's easily a top 3 wing on this team behind Tuch and Peterka. I am excited to see Savoie in camp this year. He was fabulous last season. 1 1 Quote

Peterka may be a faster north/south skater, but Quinn is a quicker skater more adept in moving in tight spaces. He's also a smarter and more instinctive player who knows where to go as the play develops. I'm not knocking JJP who I like a lot and is going to get even better, but if I had a choice between the two, it would definitely be Quinn. 1 1 Quote

JustOneParade Posted June 27 Report Posted June 27 1 hour ago, Archie Lee said: Not reading any specific implication into your comment, but it seems likely if we trade for Necas there will be a few “why do we even have Ventura” and “does Adams even consider analytics” posts. I get it, but what makes people think our analytics team doesn’t love Necas? Our internal models may well tell a story that the public models don’t. Why pay a small fortune for an internal analytics team and model development if we are just going to go by what J Fresh tweets (and I like J Fresh). Yep. There wasn't any specific implication intended. It just seemed to me that there was a disconnect between projected acquisition cost and worth as defined by the public models. Totally agree with your take. The Sabres need to make that value determination, not us. 1 Quote

They might have more details or be easier to tweak but there wouldn't be enough variance to drastically change the narrative IMPO. 1 Quote

I like how everyone suggests the concept of balanced lines in theory but the moment you create a lineup on the internet not slotted precisely by perceived rank it’s an issue Thanks for the input tho 1 Quote
