Yes he has.

Crowded prospective forward group next year.

Under Contract Possibilities:

Tage, Tuch, Skinner, Cozens, Quinn, Peterka, Mittelstadt, Krebs, Olofsson, Greenway, Rousek, Savoie, Kulich (13)

Would Need a Contract Possibilities:

Okposo, Girgensons, Jost

I think people are going to be surprised when he’s not back. I’m getting more confident that’s going to be the case

Might not even be qualified.

Will they make any move at forward, or just bring back the same group below while sending Savoie back to Junior and Kulich back to the AHL?

Tage, Tuch, Skinner, Cozens, Quinn, Peterka, Mittelstadt, Krebs, Olofsson, Greenway, Okposo, Girgensons, Rousek (extra)

Tkachuk scored with a minute left. Panthers won their 6th straight. Reinhart with the empty netter. (frank).

Girgensons earned another contract. Solid season.
Guy has some key defensive minutes and blocks shots fearlessly.

Death , taxes and girgensons (TM HB)

I’d keep Girgensons over Jost, Okposo and Olaffson. Guys a gamer.

“Sabres have picked up 13 of a possible 16 points in their past 8 games but have only gained 3 points on the 2nd wildcard spot in that time.”

This is why you can’t fall behind. It’s nearly impossible to gain ground in the NHL, especially with the loser point.

It was over weeks ago. But whatever, it made it more exciting for people to pretend

Might not even be qualified.

Yeah that’s my thinking. He isn’t going to get much on open market. They probably let him explore and maybe hope to get him in the Vinny range 2 years 1.7 mil or something

Well then it was over after the 8 game losing streak. Noones ever made the playoffs losing 8 in a row.

God if we only didnt pretent!

Quinnipiac has been dominating Minnesota.

Probably yea.
When you go on two 5+ game losing streaks?

8 game losing streak
Multiple 4 game losing streaks.
Going on a skid of 2-10 in March.

I’d keep Girgensons over Jost, Okposo and Olaffson. Guys a gamer.
- SoCalPucks

Or just none of them?

You can replace most of them for a sub million dollar player for the next few years.

Use that money in defense.

Power-Dahlin
Xxx-Sammy
Bosh-Stillman.

Fastest overtime goal ever?

I appreciate that he’s played better, I just don’t think he’s what we needed. We needed a top 6 player in his mold, not a middle six/bottom 6 tweener. We needed a player like him that actually uses his size. He’s taking up valuable roster space. We already have quantity, we need quality.

I like greenway's upgrade of grit, straight up for olofsson.

Maybe 3rd line winger with size and 20 goal potential.

A handful less goals then olofsson for 3 million not 4.75 as well.

Smart paper move for KA IMO.

*I thought greenway was an okposo replacement, but instead a olofsson replacement 🤔

It is really hard to make up ground in the NHL
Crazy that the Panthers were flailing away at 7th in Atlantic with only 36 points on New Year’s Day. https://www.hockey-refere...e.com/boxscores/2023/1/1/
Now they are currently in driver’s seat for WC1 spot, but still could totally miss out.

Gotta give a shout out to donnie today with the lineup.

Smoothly moved mitts into the 1st line. (2nd game)
Mitts looked great today.

Tage has broken rib(s).

Greenway showing signs of a good nhl player too.

3 more goals for Pepe and you’ll have to change your name to Rhino34

I betcha teams like carolina and the Bruins aren't thrilled about playing the Panthers in round 1.

Good matchup vs the canes.

Pittsburgh vs Boston
Florida vs Carolina
NJ vs ny
Tampa vs Toronto

Book it.

I watched the game.

Pepe hit the cross bar with an wide open net for the winner with a couple minutes left

Scores another empty netter with 3 seconds left

😀

I think I’d rather face the Canes than Bs.
FL last regular season game is vs Carolina.

Defender got his stick in there at last second and deflected his shot up and off the cross bar

But yeah, he should already have 40

Dahlin. Samuelsson
Power. Top 4.
Johnson. Boosh.
Stillman.

Joker traded
Clague gone
Bryson gone.

1 of your bottom 3 d will be your 7th d next year

Seems like a good nhl match up

Panthers vs canes.

I just read the Sabres were 1-10-4 vs the canes in the last 15 games.

Basically 1-14 ouch...

Times a changing
