Appreciate the breakdown!
Would love to see Benson start out on the 2nd line
Need to make another trade still for a top 6 forward
Go Sabres!
I think Peterka 1st line is beyond well deserved, and that Greenway should be on the third line unless proven otherwise. If Benson is a shoe in for line 2 I think we are in a lot of trouble…. As for defense Byram is the guy we need (aside from Dahlin and Power) to continue on the track he started on the Sabres with. You could see the regression immediately as he settled into the Sabres lack of strategical systems, coming from a playoff team with strong work ethic he looked confused playing with us when he got here. I have all the faith in Lindy to ignite a spark among the players and hold them accountable, something many previous inexperienced Sabre coaches lacked. Would be a shame for UPL to not get the hefty workload, levi is not our guy. Keep Levi on a short leash and ship him out if no progression is shown, Reimer although much older would be a very sturdy #2. Levi being good in Rochester doesn't transfer to the nhl so far. And though he is young I can't see him being the future of Sabres goaltending. Awesome video and so many great points discussed thank you for making this!
Nice commentary!
Peterka is a strength on the 2nd line but a weakness on the top line.
