I see one of Syracuse's mid-liners is off to Vajxo:

Avslöjar: Felix Robert blir Växjös sista pusselbit

Växjö är på väg att fylla på truppen med sin sista pjäs inför säsongen. Enligt uppgifter till Expressen är man överens med den snart 25-årige kanadensaren Felix Robert.

so no komarov


(and they forgot Levi too)

Yeah it was a pretty half assed post omitting Komarov and Levi/Reimer (and no mention of Helenius anywhere).

PS Komarov, not Komorov. Seen it a couple times

Thanks. I'll correct it.

I'm sure my lineup is slanted more towards Sabres development than Amerks success, but....

Murray-Kulich-Rosen
Wahlberg-Ostlund-Rosek
Kisakov-Jobst-Neuchev
Dunne-Kozak-Tullio

Novikov-Metsa
Johnson-Komarov
Rathbone-Prow
Poolman

(Levi)
Houser
Sandstrom

so no clague


On a serious note: I love the D-pairs

 

[Chainshot]

I see the Icemen have done some business in the last week. Returning will be the captain, Chris Brown as well as forwards Garrett Van Wythe, Chris Grando, Logan Cockerill, and Justin McCae and defenseman Ivan Chukarov and Connor Russell. Seems like a lot of work yet to be done there honestly.

Missed Clague. Not to mention a Bryson or Gilbert potential additions from Buffalo, but the Sabres' defensive depth is pretty strong. Couldn't say that a couple years ago.

Two more added to the mix - forwards Max Gildon (another NTDP guy) who finished five years at OSU and spent a little time with Wheeling to end last season and ANOTHER one-time NTDPer in Josh Nodler who then spent three years at MSU, 1 at UMass and then 1 at Bowling Green. Gildon lists as a LW, Nodler as a C/RW. Neither had particularly good collegiate stats, at least Gildon is 6'2".

Gildon is a guy I remember being a good NTDP guy. He should fit the system anyway.

Sorry Roch, Kulich will be in Buffalo.

 

[Jacob582]

What an awful signing last season.

 

[Zman5778]

Sorry Roch, Kulich will be in Buffalo.

I'm not really seeing a space for Kulich unless an injury happens, specifically to someone in a scoring role.

We shall see.

 

[Chainshot]

What an awful signing last season.

How was he awful? He gave them solid vet depth in the middle six.

Solid?

 

[Chainshot]

Solid?

He finished plays at similar rates to his previous AHL years. They chose to play kids up the lineup and he didn’t get more offensive deployment.

He was just frustrating for me to watch him in the regular season and playoffs.
