Re: sabres prospect talk

London is up 2-0 over Windsor in the 1st round of the OHL playoffs.. Zadorov didn't have any points in Game 1 but had 2 goals and 2 assists in Game 2.. Grigorenko has 4 assists in 2 playoff games and William Carrier has 3 points in 2 playoff games

Re: sabres prospect talk

strangely, michigan did not make the tournament. comphers season is done. but for a young michigan team, that team is going to be even better next year.

mccabe and wisco are in, and if they exit early, expect him to make the jump to rochester.

Re: sabres prospect talk

get this... Rob Ray had a discussion with Burke when the Sabres were playing Calgary and Burke told Ray that he thinks the Buffalo rebuild won't take that long and that alot of GM's are jealous of the Sabres and Murray because they are AHEAD OF ALL THE OTHER NHL TEAMS with their prospects that are in the Sabres system. Burke also credits Murray for standing his ground and not giving in at getting high draft picks

Maybe the high drafts picks will time out for us yet.

is there something i missed that places zemgus in rochester at some point?

Re: sabres prospect talk

Grigs had 9 points in 5 playoff games.. Too bad Quebec went out in the 1st round of the QMHL playoffs but Grigs doesn't need anymore junior time he needs to show something in the AHL

Re: sabres prospect talk

I thought I read somewhere Girgs was assigned to AHL.

My bad..

regardless... I very much would like to see these two paired together in the AHL for a year... throw in Sam Bennett, Risto and Zad all playing there next year if they can.

give them a year to get to know each other and compete together... without the spotlight.

Then bring them all up in 2015 with Eichel or McDavid or whoever we get in that draft.

add a couple of key free agents... And he can take his 5 years and stick it where the sun don't shine.

bennet and zad are not AHL eligible next year (zad can be after londons playoffs in 2015)

The NHL and their agreement with the Junior league

The NHL and their agreement with the Junior league

So they can play in the big league but not the AHL... stupid.

has nothing to do with proper development of a hockey player.

The idea is to protect the Junior leagues. Teams would sign all the players at 18 and send them to the minors.

But if they are good enough to hang with the big boys, more power to them.

That is why Risto was AHL eligible. He came from Europe

Re: sabres prospect talk

To me it's the Sabres asset... they should be able to chose how to best utilize them.
