Around the NHL - Part XLIII

[NickyFotiu]

Our D is extremely suspect, but that's overstating things.

I have said that our D group are not good defensively for a while but the stats guys say otherwise. It shows up in the playoffs.

True story, one of my closest friends' Mom grew up next door to Ronnie Hyatt aka Ron Jeremy. He's the pride of Bayside!

Similar call to the one that went against us 2 games ago, but those disallowed goals are BS IMO

This was worse cause player hit his blocker and pushed it back as opposed to Kreider being hit by the goalie and making it seem like it was Kreider hitting.

This is definitely erroneous because this meme has big D energy and Matthews has never had that....

Georgiev should have asked Tavares for one of his magical amulets to ward off the hex DeAngelo put on him

Sabres winless since Rasmus "The Captain" Dahlin assaulted his own player in practice.

I’m sure he commands a lot of respect in that locker room

Buffalo is such a mess. This is why you can’t hand the keys to the kids even when you go full slash and burn rebuild. This Sabres rebuild is worse than the Oilers Hall/Eberle/Nuge/Yakupov rebuild.

The Dahlin, Cozens, and Samuelson contracts are insanely brutal. You can’t give that money and term when none of them have proven a damn thing in this league. I think the Power contract will age well. At least TT does stuff when he’s healthy.

But they’re going to be so scary soon!

From a cursory perusing of Calgary's thread on him, it looks like he hasn't been able to solidify himself as an NHL talent. Whatever he showed at lower levels hasn't translated to the NHL. Was compared to Marchand/Gallagher apparently in terms of being an uber pest with a high motor. Two shoulder injuries that have contributed to a lack of development. Was lacking in his defensive game as well.

We already have an equivalent type of prospects in our pool and for every Marchand there are literally hundreds of prospects that couldn't get through the last (AHL to NHL) threshold.

Not sure how much sarcasm or humor you put into there but there definitely will be market for Lindgren for teams with similar to Buffalo situations. Vet leadership is a thing that makes a detrimental difference on the rosters that lacking it.
