you see what his trade value is before you do anything else. May sound obvious but if they're looking for a move like a Varlamov, then you have to find his worth, because waivers probably won't cut it.

Will Levi ever see an Amerks jersey?

- TheSabresTaco


Today, it sounds like no. Gerbe certainly sounded that way. May look different in 2 weeks, let's see.

Scared me for a second, sounds like Anderson is out and either Comrie or UPL will backup.

Yes. Everyone basically starts on the NHL roster and has to clear to go down (if not exempt).

Edit: Wrong quote

You sure? My understanding is waivers don't go into effect until 12 days before regular season starts.

If so, couldn't he just get sent down at the end of this year anyways and stay there?

12 days before is just when they start for the season, it's not an end around.

The next few games and preseason will answer that. I don’t think it’s written in stone he is in 🦬 next year yet

I saw you over on CapFriendly. I like them both, just think Nadeau is a piece that we don't have right now. I think
Nadeau Krebs Rousek could make for a pretty good 4th line in 2yrs. Or keep Jost and Krebs moves up to 3C.
Nadeau Jost Rousek could make for a line to, ferocious around the boards and below the dot.

Anyone with an nhl contract starts the season on 🦬 roster. They get sent down from there.

Beautiful day in Paradise!

Big picture:
Sabres playing meaningful games in April
Sabres developing all the young talent into NHL players, different rates and levels using patience and encouragement to build confidence.
Sabres have a poop ton of prospects developing very nicely in their respective leagues
Sabres have ammunition to make trades to source players at critical positions
Sabres building culture that is very attractive to players desiring win big.
Adams and team showed intelligence in their contract signings to secure a young explosive core, which was identified on this board as an absolute critical, but unproven capability.


Now, the nay-sayers are circling their wagons taking their stand on the hill-to-die-on that he hasn't made hockey trades and are highly doubtful he has it in him.

All the hurdles Adams and team have over come are very evident, yet the nay-sayers conti ually look for the next challenge with skepticism rather than enthusiasm.

PTSD clouds optimism.

Excellent post

😭😭😭😭

Kyvynv didnt make big trades .

Except the ones he did, which don't count, because he was forced to, which seem like a tougher position to win a trade from......

Anderson is basically retired right now. He’s “hurt” but I doubt that

Finally the pylon (olofsson) has come full circle.

For awhile they were using him correctly. 3rd line with PP time. But even his Pp magic is gone.

if he's not doing literally the only thing he can do, then how do you justify playing him? Playing him over Jost is a sham. Playing him over literally any other forward is a sham.

Really think his play has anything to do with using him 'correctly'? Feels like confirmation bias to me. His best play got 2nd line minutes. His worst play gets him 4th line minutes or the press box.

I didn't include Hino in the post but he was never on IR. He was out for a few days for personal reasons. Considering the Sabres never made the reason public, you can probably assume something negative.
