Does Levi get any games down the stretch?   

IMO veteran guys like Johnson, Rousek, Nuechev, Metsa, Brannstrom and Wahlberg deserve a look.

One of these things is not like the other...

My understanding from following along with Kris Baker's tweets was Ratzlaff was seeing 40+ shots every game of the series.  He was likely the only reason that they won any games.

He stole games 1 and 3.

I'd bold Neuchev, too. He's only 21 and is still under 100 AHL GP.

I know about Rochester but are there any Sabres prospects doing anything of note elsewhere right now?

Jake Richard had a great season at UCONN 15 Goals and 43 points in 34 games. 
 

Cam Robinson from EP Prospects reported the Sabres are trying to sign him as he can become a UFA in August 2026.

Matteo Costantini won a NCAA championship with Western Michigan (Gavin McCarthy was a runner-up with Boston University).

Poltapov and CSKA Moskva lost their first-round playoff series to Dinamo Minsk (4-2). Poltapov 68 GP 17-23-40 regular season, and 1-2-3 in the six playoff games.

For those that follow the young’uns more closely. Who are those that you have the highest hopes for in the organization? Why? 

The best prospects of the Adams era have been Power, Quinn, Levi and Peterka, probably in that order.

Power's post-draft year, Quinn and Peterka' rookie AHL seasons and Levi's body of work at Northeastern were exceptional, even for prospects.

That they have yet to continue that trajectory is a big reason why Adams' plan has failed.

The Rosen, Östlund, Kulich, Helenius group is step below those guys: good showings for prospects, but nothing that indicates stardom yet for any of them.

There's also a deep enough group of B prospects that I would be surprised if a few don't turn into NHLers.

Benson is my choice, but also the hardest to read: the list of draft picks who went directly to the NHL and put up 30-points as an 18-year-old is small and populated mostly by stars; his offence so far hasn't tracked, but the underlying stuff and the eye test certainly do.
