you know he still hates Casey "Silky MITTS" Mittelstadt despite his massive jump in play.

1 goal and 6 assists in last 15 games and at this pace it's a slight bump in performance vs the previous 2 years

the recency bias of his subpar top line play shouldn't get in the way of what he actually is and has done well over the past several months.

Hoping Greenway reacts the same in what's probably next year.

Fun Fact for the Day:

Matthews Savoie is from St. Albert, Alberta.

Their team name is the St. Albert Sabres and this is their logo.



Moral of the story is, it was always meant to be.

Their logo says their the St. Albert Sabres and the St. Albert Raiders Hockey Club. I'm confused.

Really want to see how this team performs around Levi. I do not want to see him hung out to dry.

I don't care if he's hung out to dry if he stays drippin'. That is to say - I'm sure they will and I hope he responds with an insane performance. I predict an ridiculous save on kaner tbh. Kind of excited to see if he pulls it off tonight.

Part of me wonders if Granato already chalked this one up to an L or if he is thinking the rags might come out flat against a "lesser" team in the sabs or what the line of thinking is here, maybe he just believes he gives them as good a chance as what he's had all year anyways, idk, just some thoughts.

if they play decent d, what does that say for the other 70 games where they did not?

Great question. I think we can guesstimate on July 2nd.

50-50 on Kulich. 65-35 on Rousek. Rousek's contract is up (RFA 10.2), so we'll see how that's handled.

- TheSabresTaco


Isn't Rousek just a simple bridge?

I meant more-so if they offer him a termed deal and/or a one or two way to give us a clue about their intentions for him.

My best guess, they give him 2 years, the second year is one way.

This is what they did with UPL.

I think they'll be cheaper. 2 year, two-way deal with a bit of an AHL raise. Closer to a Biro deal.

They have done it a few times throughout the season, played good team D. They just don't do it very often.
