Throw him in there. Lets see what they've got.

Might as well.

Re: 2022-2023 Sabres Thread

Does he have to play 10 games like a skater to get a season under his belt?

No. That's only for 18-19 year olds.

This team was a complete tease. Playing awful hockey when it matters most.

No play-offs again. What an embarrassment.

Thompson hasn't been right for awhile now.

Re: 2022-2023 Sabres Thread

Everyone criticized Lindy Ruff for the defensive style of play he coached. Granato lets the young kids run wild. They have very little defensive awareness. They hung Anderson out to dry repeatedly last night. Tippett with a hat trick? Really? Granato should be ashamed at that. I've grown tired of giving him a pass just because he is better than Ralph Krueger and supposedly good with the kids. I say he's not that good with the kids. I watched the 3rd period last night thinking that Tortorella would have gotten a lot more out of this Sabres squad than Granato has. Look at what Tortorella has done with the garbage he has in Philadelphia. Pegula could have signed him as a coach. He's not the greatest choice, no, I'm not saying that. But he is getting more out of less in Philadephia.

Re: 2022-2023 Sabres Thread

Maybe it's time to stop giving Granato a pass. They (Adams & Granato) get one more season. Levi is here now. We'll see how he does. But he would have done exactly the same as Anderson last night fending off 3 on 1's. Adams has to supply some rugged, defensive defenseman to offset Dahlin. It's time for Power to grow up. The kid line (Peterka/Cozens/Quinn) should be line #3, not line #2. Build a scoring line #2. Time for Okposo and Girgensons to go. Like them both, but they have to go. Olofsson is going to have 30 goals at season's end. But he goes long stretches with no contribution. They have to decide what they are going to do there.

Skinner - Thompson - Tuch
Peterka - Cozens - Quinn
Jost - Mittelstadt - Olofsson
Greenway - Krebs - Kulich

Next season may look something like this up front. Although I'm not sure Krebs is the right guy for a 4th line center, it's where they're using him now. And maybe flip Greenway & Jost. Something like that. Outside of Oloffson, any trade bait in this group? Krebs?

Regarding Olofsson, look at his assists this season and his +/- over the last 3 seasons:

Re: 2022-2023 Sabres Thread

The amount of ****ing odd man rushes piss me off. That's just recklessness and/or laziness. I'm souring on Granato too. It seems to be ok with him.

I'd try and trade him. If they can't then let him play out the last year of his contract then let him walk.
