Better late than never: Kris Baker reviews what went down at the Sabres rookie tournament with quick capsules on the players in action.
Centerman Tyson Kozak is a beast and defenseman Ryan Johnson looks ready for a seamless transition to the pro game.
Viljami Marjala is off to a quick start and is looking like one to keep a close eye on with TPS Turku in Liiga.
Kris goes around the European rinks with the latest (and video highlights) on Prokhor Poltapov, Noah Ostlund, William Von Barnekow, Anton Wahlberg…

You're a superstar.
My choice is Alexis Lafrenière he grew up across the lake from Devon Levi he hasn’t really pass out in New York but I believe Dianne Granato can unlock his potential and he’s a French Canadian and we really don’t have any French-Canadians on this team and Levi would probably get along with him really well

Anthony Cirelli.
Would love a Adam lowery type player on the sabres 😊
Probably a bit more of a star than you are looking for, but Jaccob Slavin is a good defender and his lack of penalty minutes are insane.
Hard to pick. I like Karel Vejmelka in goal, Nick Paul or Travis Konecny at forward and any one of the Vegas defenders.

I’m partial to Clifton, too
Lawson Crouse or Matt Martin
Rasmus Sandin
Lawson Crouse 👍
Interesting notes on Wahlberg. His father was captain for Malmo in 07/08 and 10/11. In between, Dad played a year with CSKA. Anton (6'3 194) has a twin brother playing U20 in Malmo (5'10 143). The twin plays D.
Ivan Barbashev ever since he was in Moncton.
Jochen Hecht, Toni Lydman, John Madden,
Love Trent Frederic too, personally I’d love to see Anthony Duclair play for the Sabres, just so fun and electric to watch, so much speed and skill
Reilly Smith would be it up front. Mattias Ekholm on the back end.
Dude you nailed it on the prospect challenge broadcast. Great job Bakes
