9th actually.

They cannot play Schenn in any meaningful game. He should be their 8th defenseman

Omg really

We’ll see how the final 15 go. Right now I’d assume he’s the 7 and Schenn is 8. But they’ve gotta give Schenn a couple of games here and there

I knew they were gonna get a few games down the stretch. So long as Schenn doesn’t see the ice in the playoffs they’ll be okay

Stanley-Schenn looks as awful as predicted

High cycle almost bit them on that Wilson break

Luke Schenn skates about as well as a mini mite

It would be real cool if they traded Ryan Johnson in a big deal this summer that added a few more branches

Yesterday was the anniversary of the Rick Martin trade to LA. The trade tree is still alive

I’m not expecting much defensive growth. But if he can steady the scoring instead of being so streaky he can be a really effective player. I’d still consider upgrading him just because he’s streaky

I wonder if he had been a little hotter pre-deadline if Thomas is a Sabre

11.03.2026 12:03 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

I think that could be a line to watch in the playoffs. If Tage and Norris are getting the other team's best, they could have some really advantageous looks.

I dump on Quinn a lot (and I'll continue to do so when he deserves it) but when he's hot he's HOT. That line gives me some Vanek-Roy-Afinogenov vibes from 06-07 when they could feast on weak matchups because the other two lines draw the better lines/d pairs.

Dahlin should be a Norris finalist. Big Hockey Media will keep him out because it's a popularity contest. But he deserves the bump.

Lyon feels a little steadier than UPL. He'd be my game one starter. They're both prone to leaky goals but I think UPL's worst is far worse than Lyon's worse...both have a similar ceiling IMO.

Obviously plus/minus is a load of crap. But still. He righted the ship after a tough one on Sunday.

Some thoughts! Power was nasty tonight. Had several insane passes to set up grade A chances. One went in (Zucker goal) and he probably should've had 3 or 4 points tonight. Saw a few dopes talking about him being dash 4 on Sunday...he's a +3 tonight. Whaddya know

One thing I failed to include in the pod. Not in love with the choice of acquiring multiple players from one of the league’s worst teams!

Sabres additions
Stanley: Cautious optimism he’ll be okay with good deployment
Schenn: Pray he doesn’t see the ice
Carrick: upgrades their 4th line, nice addition
Pearson: too bad it’s not the 23 year old version. Interested to see how often they use him

I forgot to include they also eliminated the LTIR loophole that allowed contenders to load up on players, further minimizing trade movement.
