2022-2023 Sabres Thread

Re: 2022-2023 Sabres Thread

"Willingness to extend" is the key. The Sabres have a good young core and players seem to like Granato and Adams. But let's be realistic. We've been the dregs of the league for a decade. Have we turned the corner and become a place where players want to be? It feels like we are moving in that direction but I'm not sure we are there yet.

I also know Brock boeser is on the block and I read that he could be sold low (2nd round pick or maybe a 3rd)

He's youngish and pretty good. The issue is... Do the sabres need more scoring? Probably not. Unless you can move out dead weight with him.

UPL still let in some soft goals last night. He's had only 20 starts in the NHL and the plan was another year in Rochester. Cromrie injury changed that.

Sabres reporter Paul Hamilton stated this morning that the pipeline is still the main focus of this GM. There is no #1 type Goalie out there for trade. So Cromrie will eventually get well and return. UPL is getting thrown to the wolves right now and Anderson will retire for good in a few months.

Levi is still in college and NOT under contract yet. Until he signs, it's all ssumption and he'd need Rochester time in their eyes next year.

Also, the forwards need to play better D. Glad the scoring is way up but getting caught pinching in deep and giving up an inordinate number of 2 on 1 breaks is killing them. Plus the low % on faceoffs.

Lots of fundamental work still needs to produce results. The playoffs are still a year away. That recent 8 game losing streak buried them deep.
