+14 goal differential, which is quite a bit better than all the other non playoff teams and a few teams in the playoffs.
We're progressing. Good to see!

I just like that we're not relying on guy traded to Vegas to produce 75%+ of our offense

If you think trading for a defensive defenseman who has never played an NHL game in 3+ pro seasons is an NHL trade, especially a significant NHL trade, well...
This is a trade of two AHL D one for one. Where have I ever said that AHL trades are unlikely to happen right now?
This whole conversation is about significant NHL trade that would solve the Sabres issues in goal or on defense. This is not that.
It is amusing that one of the parts of that trade is again outscoring the primary piece that went the other way. (Yes, yes, I know Eich was owning the puck in a way he never really has before prior to his latest set of injuries.)

I thought he'd mentioned it before.
It is his son.
Here are your top faceoff guys this season (filtered for 100+ FOW so far this season).
Toews is an interesting name to think about if he is available this summer.
His fandom flashed in his almost obsessive anger of Thompson not getting a shot at the record books by his take - and not just tying the modern record, but gunning for seven in that Columbus game.

The two have identical 5v5 scoring metrics. I think Jack leaving was crucial for Tage’s development. So I try not to think about what it would be like having both of them.
Domi is interesting

I think that had more to do with his consistent takes about marketing the game and wanting records to fall than being Sabres-specific.
I seem to remember that he was a little salty about McDavid sitting most of the third when he had his game with like 6 pts through 40 minutes.
I do not believe Domi is good enough defensively for the bottom 6 role that you would likely want a FO guy to play.
They have collectively grown. It's nice to have a team I actually enjoy watching with personalities I enjoy seeing succeed now.
As for Domi... the vagabond life seems like an indicator of something deeper but maybe that's just me being a grumpy old man.

Domi is very much a bad bottom 6 option due to his d-zone play. WOOOF.
Is Jeremy Davies of Rochester worthy of getting an opportunity here?
I thought he looked good when I watched an Amerks game earlier

I’m a little of the opinion that we should roll 4 scoring lines. Don’t have to be good in the Dzone if you’re never there.

Good call.
Sturm is another intriguing name to me. 2 years left on his contract but the sharks really have no use for him in the next couple years.
Even if he signs - it's a big ask to expect him to come in & perform the way he'll need to.
They absolutely need another bona fide 'top four' guy regardless of the Johnson outcome.
In an ideal world - they identify / add the right trade target sooner than later, then sign Johnson who plays AHL for a short time before replacing Bryson as the long term #5/6 in future.

Where's the defensemen equivalent of Tolvanen or Jost hitting the waiver wire. We flat out need bodies right now.

Seeing how they just signed him this summer, I doubt they move on from him that soon.
As a fellow Clarkson grad, I would love to see it, though.
I would be stunned if they moved Jeannot.
Not throwing a bag of short term money at Nico Sturm still seems an obvious miss.

RIP RJ
I do not remember too many people saying that Sturm should get something like the 3x3 that it would have taken to land him.
As a Clarkson guy you must know it's very likely he's familiar enough with NY weathers to nope the f*** off to SF
