I'm assuming there is 0 chance of winning the draft lotto, so #1 target is the Russian.

Re: Sabres news and notes
Kevin weekes just posted a picture of Desjardins mask he just obtained for his collection, then mused of the sabres we're gonna add another to their collection soon. Appears a move of some sort MAY be on the way?

Are we assuming a big jump here? Doesn't it seem like a bit for a fairly unproven player? If he does jump, the contract will be great in a few years.

Depends. He's got GREAT underlying numbers. I don't think you're ever gonna see him light up the scoresheet

I'd argue that by the end of his contract, he'll be UNDERPAID.

I don't know. He would have likely played the whole year last year with Buffalo, but had an injury prior to. It's a risk, but it's forward thinking by management. They're hedging he will be a major piece going forward and will be under value when the sabres are ready to contend and major players need pay days

I can see that. Getting in before the salary cap goes up can be great for this kind of stuff. Obviously if he keeps it up/improves though.

He looked good last night. Kinda a throwback in some ways, but can skate and pass. His skating was a HUGE question mark when he was drafted, but it has become a strength. Good for him. At worst, it's not a huge cap hit if he fails to live up to his potential
Re: Sabres news and notes
Comrie to ROCH for conditioning.
It's going to be interesting to see how the Sabres handle this when he's ready

UPL will not go back to Rocha cha cha, no chance.
Re: Sabres news and notes
Eric Comrie's debut in goal for the Rochester Amerks was a smashing success Saturday, as the Buffalo Sabres netminder made 34 saves to steal a 3-2 win over the Toronto Marlies in Coca-Cola Coliseum.
Comrie, who has not appeared since suffering a knee injury while playing for the Sabres Nov. 16 in Ottawa, was in the first game of his conditioning assignment.
The Amerks were outshot in the game, 36-13, but Comrie stood tall to earn First Star honors and lead Rochester to its sixth straight win. Comrie stopped 27 of 29 shots over the final two periods.
Rochester improved to 17-9-1-1 to pull without four points of Toronto for first place in the AHL North.

There's gonna have to be a trade. I dunno if you can do this, but I guess I'd ask Levi's camp if he's for sure gonna sign at the end of the season, get his answer, and maybe trade Anderson at the deadline to a contender who needs a goalie. In the meantime, carry 3?
