slapshot1619 Posted October 22, 2006 Report Posted October 22, 2006 Great to see the kids in the AHL following in Buffalo's Foot steps
JujuFish Posted October 22, 2006 Report Posted October 22, 2006 Dennis made 54 saves in the latest win. Impressive.
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted October 22, 2006 Report Posted October 22, 2006 But remember not all of the Amerks are owned by the Sabres
slapshot1619 Posted October 22, 2006 Author Report Posted October 22, 2006 I'm aware of this, but if you check the stats, their top 4 point getters are sabres owned and Dennis hasn't been a slouch in net either there is alot of parity on that team as alot of points seem to be spread around as well and they still don't have Sekera(If you remember correctly gave Paetsch a run for that final dman spot in camp) in. The one I'm confused about is that Zagrapan hasn't been more involved...

The one I'm confused about is that Zagrapan hasn't been more involved... He is really young and probably struggling adjusting to the game at the AHL level. The Sabres really want their kids to play the same style in Rochester(as they do in Buffalo) and he might be adjusting to playing in the defensive zone. They can't cherry pick at the red line a la Eric Staal.
slapshot1619 Posted October 23, 2006 Author Report Posted October 23, 2006 see I thought he was more of a grinding work the boards type guy, not a cherry picker waiting for the break away type guy, but considering the only info i get is from hockeysfuture and hockeydb I can't really assume anything now can I.
Strow Posted October 23, 2006 Report Posted October 23, 2006 Dennis and the guy we just drafted can be the miller/biron of the future for this club. Zagrapan should grow and hopefully come along later in the season when get adapts to the AHL style. Does anyone know if the Amerks will be around after this season I have heard talks of some team out west?
shrader Posted October 23, 2006 Report Posted October 23, 2006 Dennis and the guy we just drafted can be the miller/biron of the future for this club. It might be rushing things a bit, but they may need Dennis next year.
inkman Posted October 23, 2006 Report Posted October 23, 2006 Does anyone know if the Amerks will be around after this season I have heard talks of some team out west? Uh, do you mean the affiliation with the Sabres or in Rochester period? I know one thing is for sure. The Amerks will never leave Rochester. Fifty years of tradition does not go by the way side. I can't possibly see Rochester's affiliation with the Sabres ever waning with Tommy G. at the helm. Too many connections.
