Cozens right now has no value at all

Quinn has no value

Adams traded a center for Byram. He’s not moving him.

It’s also too early for teams to be making moves. I doubt we see a trade form any team for a month or so

Funny! They are actually 1 point worse at the 10 game mark this year, compared to last year.

I'd love to know what is going on with him, especially since he played so well both times he came back last season.
Is he struggling with the new system, is he physically impaired?
WTF is up with him?

- IonSabres


Me too my friend. The season is young though and we know what he CAN do. It's how to get him back to it. I'd personally sit him for a game again at this point, just to hopefully light that fire but selling him low is a bad idea IMO.

Never sensed much patience from you for guys like Joker and Samuelsson (top 4 fixtures for years).

Joker's on a 1 year deal and Samuelsson is now 3rd pair. Don't sense much confidence from the front office in them either.

- Lunaion


As you have posted about several times, the construction of the D just doesn't make sense.

The roster as a whole has construction issues. Krebs and Lafferty are pretty redundant.. Krebs outplaying Lafferty currently, but why two 4C's.
NAK and Greenway. Greenway playing well initially for sure on L3, over the long haul I suspect he will revert back to what he has always been... A L3/-L4 tweener. Same for NAK. Benson and Zucker as L3 wingers while 2LW remains open.
Power and Byram as puck-movung 2LhD. One forced to play 2RhD. 3LhD is vastly overpaid. And doesn't play physical enough in front of his net.
Joker a 1stP out of necessity.

The Core has zero proven leadership and all play with a lack of physicality.

The roster has "retool" written all over it.

Can't bring in blah players and expect anything other than blah results. Zucker has been good. McLeod waxes and wanes for me. The rest are hot garbage. Add in regression from Cozens, Benson and Quinn...we're in real trouble here.

They have issues and need adjustments to there Roster, as lon and Lunaion have pointed out there D is set up wrong and other than the 1st line there's no consistency. They really need someone to step up at 2C

Mittelstadt and a 2nd for Malenstyn and Byram

Nailed it again, Kevo. Can't wait to see what he cooks up next year

I find it infinitely hilarious that the only player Adams wanted to keep from last year's team was Zemgus Girgensons who has a 0+0 zero stat line for his new team. The cherry on top is that Collin Robinson has 1+3 for the Hurricanes while major acquisition Beck Malenstyn has 2 points and adams used a 2nd round pick to do that.

Sabres valuation now at $1.16b

Imagine ruining perhaps the best American hockey market and making $1b in the process. Congrats, Terry

Good seats still available for Friday's game

I am once again asking
What 2024 2nd round draft selection would be playing 4LW?

Let's not waste another 9 pages of valuable internet ink on this subject.

The point was that Robinson is outperforming him and he didn't cost a 2nd rounder. He was free

Cozens hasn’t play good nhl hockey in 2 seasons.

At the worlds last summer he was really good.

So what’s wrong with NHL Dylan Cozens

I wanna see Krebs center line 2 and Cozens to the wing. Kulich/Benson at LW.

Keeps 1 and 3 together. 2 gets a semi-fresh look.

I’m guessing you mean Mike Edwards?

The dude has 2 superbowls as a starting safety and can’t get in the field over Hamlin

I have no idea how or why that is happening
