Sabres still have the leagues best prospect pool IMO, so making the NHL at 14 is not out of the realm of possibilities

Don't sleep on me
To be fair, he had a down year last year which is why it's so nice to see him have a great start

Guess who scored again?
He was also over 10 minutes of TOI going into the third period, so nearly normal use. Considering his line is 1-2-3 in KHL scoring right now, it should be.

Do we have to make room in our top 6 for this guy eventually? Is he going to have a serious breakout season putting himself in top prospect conversations?
I think he's in more of a traditional third line role if/when he comes over. But it would be fascinating to have someone with that sort of contact to his game bust out for them among their prospects.

The key will be Prokhor's conversation with Sabres (Adams/Ruff), what role they will offer him, what plans they have for him. And this should happen already in winter/spring. Whether he goes to the NHL or extends his contract with CSKA may depend on this.
Okay, maybe this is just me, but in the bits I've managed to catch of some CSKA games, he is doing something that I always think of as minor but important - he seems to be busting ass to get to the bench on changes.
Severstal is now up 3-2 late.
Edit - now 4-2 on an empty netter. He was on with the goalie pulled.
Edit 2 - 16:49 in TOI today.

With Zucker and Greenway not coming back, NAK on a one year deal, there's 3 wing spots open next season, and maybe 6 younguns in the mix. Polty could very well be a 4th liner for us next season, Malenstyn-Krebs-Polty for example.
Scored the GTG in the third period to knot it at 2, allowed CSKA to get a point. Also served one penalty, looks like a delay of game by the goalie, and picked up a crosschecking penalty. He got 11:32 in TOI, which was one of the lowest on the team but was fifth in SHTOI but all five forwards were under four minutes and over five so a decent spread for the pairs.
Further, the crosscheck was bullshit - he blows his check up right at the offensive blueline and gets called. He gets knocked down afterward and it's a saw-off but still... big hit.
When was the last time the Sabres had a forward prospect who delivered an open ice hit like that?

Probably. It's been a hot minute for sure.

Certainly Kassian had that insane suspension. I feel like of the current group Rousek has laid some people out.
