Sujet: Where to go now
Thompson has a lower body injury, wrist injury, and a broken thumb i think. They didnt shut him down. Tuch separated his shoulder in camp. They didnt shut him down. Skinner is definitely concussed, its like his 8th one. Then Cozens broke his face fighting hathaway, and then got in a fight with a staircase (not kidding look up the video). There's your shooting regression explained.

The PP is the coaches fault

They'll trade one of Samuelsson or Jokiharju for someone like Cates, Kotkaniemi, Nic Roy etc. Basically a really fast 3C who can chip and chase (aka beat the trap). At least one of the first rounders in the minors will make the jump to the NHL team too. If I were handicapping it id say:

1. Savoie
2. Kulich
3. Rosen

Levi becomes back up, that's the team for next year.

Sujet: Retooling
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rajvinder</b></div><div>This actually makes loads of sense for the Sabres.

1. They save real money
2. Even if Klingberg plays PP2 his knowledge and the way he reads the PP is undisputedly among the best D in the last decade. Passing that onto Dahlin/Power would be insanely valuable.
3. Klingberg had 5 points in 4 games on PP1 and since then has been PP2 as punishment for his 5v5 play. Just look up his analytics they are off the charts good on the PP.
4. Johnson's analytics are literally the worst in the league at 5v5 for any D. Given he is a defensive D that is a major issue. Klingberg's metrics so far this season are better Defensively (excluding all offensive metrics) tha. Johnson's at 5v5.

I think Kyle_Okposo_Lover is right. You add a 3rd or 4th and Buffalo is laughing. They just took an analytical nightmare and buried D and traded them in a move that saves them real money and nets them a pick with a likely net zero impact on the actual roster (when you factor in their minutes and impacts).</div></div>

This is off the charts? They're not taking Power off of PP2 to make room for klingberg after giving him over 8 mil. And I agree EJ is terrible but as I pointed out he clearly wasn't signed for his abilities. He's the token old dude, and theyre not trading him &lt;20 games after signing him

Also Klingberg's rapm chart is literally worse than EJ's defensively so idk what you're on about lol. I get that as a leafs fan this would be a huge win (2 birds one stone) but it's not happening.

Sujet: Avs strengthen down the middle
This doesn't do much for buffalo. We need defensive d, the kind that can help in the corners and in front of the net. Looking to free up power to do more stuff- for example, see dahlins play since being paired with Samuelsson (obviously a coach that took the leash off factors in, but pairing him with a good defensive d makes the whole thing work). Malgin doesn't add anything for us. If you look at our forwards, we have size in our top 9 with cozens, Thompson, and tuch, but there's a lot of smaller skill forwards coming, guys like- savoie, Rosen, kulich, ostlund, and rousek. Most of these guys were first round picks by this gm. Bringing a guy like malgin in to compete for a spot that really isn't there, not really doing malgin any favors either. The team has already added Greenway and stillman in an attempt to help with a nonexistent physical presence. Not picking on the avs players, just the fit couldn't be worse for us.
