No Russians this year…
Sabres were dumb to let Mike Peca walk. Yet they kept our crappy assistant coaches. Peca should have been promoted. We were bottom of the league in PK, faceoffs, team physicality and team defense. The assistants were a part of that. 2 years in a row near the bottom in those categories. Changes should have been made. We lost a valuable asset.
Bad move letting Peca walk. That's gonna come back and bite you guys. Wait.
Why are okposso & Girgenson back, i thought we were moving on from them !? Bring up the kids! You certainly dont improve the PK by bring those two back . How do you improve the PK , faceoffs , team defence, and hitting by bringing back everybody from last season?!
Bad move letting Peca and Weber leave, they shouldve been promoted and Wilford and Christie shouldve been fired.
How about trading the 13th pick as part of a package for a veteran goalie ( GIbson Hart or dare i say it Hellebuyck) . Also please bring in a veteran stay at home Dman ( Pesce , Mayfield, Graves ) as Jokiharju ( Powers partner last year) is at best a third pairing D man!
D – David Reinbacher if he still there, D – Dmitri Simashev,
