USA Hockey vs Peterka with Germany. Let's go!

Does Victor Olofsson technically count as a Buffalo Sabre?

Does Victor Olofsson technically count as a Buffalo Sabre?

Until July 1, yes.

I have a countdown clock next to my bed.

Helenius is getting first line duty for the Finns this morning at the WC.

Helenius is getting first line duty for the Finns this morning at the WC.

Why I'd be ecstatic if they drafted him

 

[Doug Prishpreed]

It really feels like one of Catton or Helenius could fall out of the top 10, just like Benson did last year.

How do folks rank Benson against those two? How would you rank all three if they had the same draft year.

Latvia's team going nowhere this year. Playing like crap.

Dahlin vs JJ right now. Hoping for dueling hatties.

 

[Willgamesh]

Sweden up 5-0 vs the Germans. Dahlin with 2 helpers VO also has a goal.

 

[CowbellConray]

I know there is some hate for VO, but I still think in the right situation (not on this team anymore) he can be a very strong powerplay threat and a minor liability on ES. I expect him to be a cheap pickup for a team looking to see if he can turn it around.

No

 

[Gras]

No

He's still under their team control until 7/1

His skill set seems to scream Chicago right now.

Wish I wasn’t in the middle of unpacking, would love to be watching more of this one with guys like Helenius and MBN playing 1st line for their respective teams.

Or Sharks.

Austria tying the game after being down 1-6...

Canada just blew a 6-1 lead...........

That’s what happens when half of your team is Sabres

You’ve summed it up perfectly.

Stat-wise, it looks like Cozens in particular was the worst offender. He was on the ice for 3 of the Austrian goals, including 2 in the third. Power and Byram were on the ice for one against apiece, though both still ended up as a plus.

Granted I wasn't able to watch so this is just looking at the highlights/stats, so did he look as bad as the stats suggest?

He had the first goal of the game and Canada had a 6-1 lead then the whole team mostly took off for the 3rd because they thought the game was in the bag. And Binnington let in some softies.

Half of the Florida Panthers are Sabres, and they seem to be ok.
