I read there was a covid loophole to make up for the 4 year rule but I don't know much about it.

No loophole.

It’s NHL or WHL next year.

If Savoie was born one day later he’d be AHL eligible

Let's say he plays the first 20 games in buf. Can he be sent to Roch at that point?

The only way he can play AHL games is if Buffalo does what Seattle did with Wright this year.

Healthy scratch him enough times and send him down for a conditioning stint.

Stupid handshake arrangement between NHL and CHL.

Kulich most likely starts in roch

Savoie based on trajectory in the WHL and him missing the AHL cut by 1 day.

Will give him a one up on Kulich. Just due to circumstances.

Sabres also need to get rid of olofsson

Thought I saw something about the Sabres maybe finding a loophole because of those games he played for Dubuque in the USHL, and maybe they could send him to Rochester if need be.
- Buff36


The idea was that being loaned to the USHL might still count as a WHL season towards the 4 that would make him eligible for the AHL. Was just wishful thinking.

I mean more as a fan to see these guys play all together, rather than trying to gauge it with highlights in junior leagues

he's right. the 'loophole' was the loan to the ushl, but it did not count as an eligible year in the chl.

Matthew Fairburn touched on it briefly in his most recent Athletic Article.

Lance Lysowski touched on it in a tweet a month or so back but I can’t find it for the life of me

Sabres have a lot of decisions coming and Quickly. They don't have the luxury of 5yr Evaluation plans anymore.
- Buff36



All you have been talking about is the now now now. Now your hoping for a 5 year evaluation plan?!?!? Pick a lane

You and about 30 posters have been like a black hole the last 2 months and now a rookie goalie looks like Pat Roy and now you change toon?

Think you have more personalities than Beady?

Think you're misreading that. If one person has been consistent about these prospects coming sooner than expected, it's 36.

I am not hoping for a 5yr year plan, said they don't have that luxury anymore. Decisions will need to be made quicker. No more kicking the can

Chance you may hear in the off-season of the Sabres talking a 3 yr deal with P Kane.

Thanks for the info, but, I personally don't see it happening. with all of our forward prospects and I barely noticed Kane last night.

I know Pegs has a st*ffie for Kane but not sure his st*ffie > than the $ he'd have to spend
