<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Viqsi</b></div><div>I'd have both Texier and Bemstrom ahead of Chinakhov on the depth chart. Chinakhov IMO needs some time in Cleveland (and is waivers-exempt), while Texier is looking like a breakout guy and Bemstrom if nothing else has at least demonstrated he's capable on defense (so maybe he can learn to create something out of the chances Robinson-Kuraly create).</div></div>

Agreed on Chinny.

It’s too much to pay Bems, and even though Tex had a hell of year, he was so good with Robinson and Kuraly, it feels tough to break them up.

Thome is likely allowed to walk. I also don’t think Stenlund gets a QO. Frankly, Carlsson doesn’t feel that much further off. I could see Bems getting one, and going between CBJ and CLE. If he gets claimed on waivers, whatever. At this point, I’m more focused on getting Foudy playing time than him; I still think with Foudy’s speed, he could be a B6+ guy - maybe turn into a player like Robinson.

In Portzline's Athletic article today he said Bemstrom is getting his QO and they're working on a new contract for him, Laine and Blankenburg are obviously getting theirs and then TFW, Stenlund and Carlsson are TBD with no indication yet that they will be qualified.

Thread: Sabres
Im trying to follow your reasoning for giving paul stastny 7 million a year for 2 years. You see that we have 2 wingers that can score, but neither is particularly responsible back checking, so you brought a vet center to keep us from getting our heads caved in- in our own end. The second line looks decent. I still dont buy that mittelstadt is any good, but asplund looked decent this year. I think i would bridge both dahlin and jokiharju, and im the first person to say botterill dropped the ball by NOT signing reinhart to a longer deal. The goalies are an upgrade over whoever was in net this year, ullmark was actually decent when he played, but im just gonna say it, hes gotta be available to play more than he thinks, it may technically be a union job, but you dont get 9 sick calls per year.
