Matt Savoie making a point to greet Noah Ostlund and wish his new teammate well...got me right in the feels. This team is shaping up to be something incredibly special, you can just feel it. Thank you Kevyn and the entire mgmt team, we believe in you.
I'm honestly hyped about Kulich the most out of the 3 of them.
It was awesome to see how Kevin acted with his team at the table that opening night. Puts Jerry breaking down into better perspective. I don't have any idea how that night went in the past... but you can just sense a real culture change, finally, with the Sabres. Not going to get ahead of myself and start comparing this to the Bills turnaround, culture wise, yet, obviously, but we have the potential to start tuning this thing around this season. And I really feel like a lot of that starts with with Kevin Adams. Embedded is the best content, as always! LETS GO BUFFALO!
same feelings on Kulich, kid is a freight train
Wow! They were torn between Ostlund and Kulich at 16. They tried to trade up 6 times to get Kulich and he still fell to 28.
Fellow Sabres fan & lover of Plant Medicine! Awesome to see. Let's go Buffalo!
@@JDSabre haha. Yes Sir!
I think we absolutely nailed the draft, the fact Forton cried talking about Adams, this team and the management is absolutely special, something we haven't had in years. They care, they're ready to do what it takes to get this team back to the top. I can't wait to see what the future holds for the Sabres! 💙💛
Even as a bruins fan I’ve been a huge Kevyn Adams believer since he took over. He’s doing everything perfectly and you can tell he’s legitimately turned the culture a complete 180. I’d bet anything on him winning GM of the year some day.
Buffalo EASILY had the best draft in the league. In addition, they also have the best prospect pool....our future is bright as the sun.
Jerry Forton seems like a solid dude
The moment that Forton said that about Adams was the moment I knew Murray and Botterill were terrible and never listened to their scouts hence why the rebuilds kept failing
It was powerful stuff. Even I got a little emotional.
Totally agree. With that you got a glimpse of everyone on the same page.
Forton was crushed when they picked Nylander instead of McAvoy.
@@scarycrazymann more mad they skipped out on Sergachev
@@SabresGuy87 I was mad they didn't take sergachev. But Imagine if we had McAvoy rn
Sabres had one of the best draft in the league
pretty cool inside look at the process - love the footage between ostland and kulich. kulich is actually the player i am most excited about, he is physically precocious and i believe he will be on the NHL roster first of all 3 of these 1st rounders.
I think the commissioner of the NHL telling us we had a good first round is really good, personally
How can you not love Kevyn Adams?
Wish these were 20 mins long none the less great inside look into there draft! Would love to hear the offer with the 28th pick was...
Wow, this is so incredible. Buffalo’s time will come! We will see the cup raised and the Super Bowl won!
I need more than 11-12 minutes on these cmon now. I hope there is a 2nd half coming with the kids coming in for the camp next as well And some day two coverage would of been nice too to add to this.
I have to say, these Embedded videos are incredible. Extremely well shot and edited. I don't know if there are awards for this sort of thing, but major kudos to the folks who put these together.
Ventura knew what he was doing in this Draft, he aimed for guys with great analytical numbers and he will look like a genius for it very soon IMO
Who?
@@jeffreyjenks8000 head of the analytics department
@@jeffreyjenks8000 one of the best minds of analytics in the NHL
I love how theyve taken a page from the Bills and bring in players with high character with high compete traits. I feel very strongly about Kevyn Adams and his team. The Pegulas got it right.
This was incredible. Love these embedded stories.
As we speak watching this Kulich is blasting goals right now in the worlds tourney right now.
Finally a competent GM for the hockey team, the Bills did it first and are building a dynasty on the football field....the ice is next
Let’s go Sabres! Can’t wait for this season
To me, it looks like Adams is saying to the three goalie prospects (four if you include 41st-overall pick Leinonen!) you've each got two years to develop at your own pace, and the best two will get the roster positions to start in 2024-25. Now those prospects know that if they fail, there is no one to blame but themselves. Adams is looking after the forward and defense positions through the draft and trades, so all the other young prospects know what is expected of them. With some luck to go with his careful planning, Adams seems to be making all the right decisions to make Buffalo's future look extremely bright! Hope springs eternal!!
I’m confident we’ll get at least two studs out of the 3 first round picks and the other will be at least a top 9 forward. Great draft!
I love that Savoie says he watches Point and tries to learn from his game. 👏
And he was compared him
That was fantastic to watch.
Loved this BTS!
Go Sabres
Boy I'll tell ya, if Matt Savoie can be like Brayden Point in a few seasons... *chef's kiss
Outstanding
This is awesome.
I come back to watch these every couple months to see how GMKA and co. were sweating their ass that somebody was gonna draft Kulich before them 😂😂😂
I think all 3 (Savoie, Ostlund, Kulich) have a great chance of being a big part of the core in Buffalo. I love how Tage Thompson played but it was his best year by a wide margin, Middlestadt looks like a 3rd liner at this stage, Okposo is probably not going to be retained next season. There will be opportunities for sure for these guys and it's exciting, not only the prospect pool but for a team who hasn't had an identity in quite some time under Eichel as captain, it's a breath of fresh air.
W series
Great picks, I think all were solid, Kulich looks like a steal at 28 played great at the wjc. His skill paired with how he plays with confidence with and without the puck is special. I think his u18 performance and wjc u20 performance is more telling of the player he will be than his mens team stats. I think he will be a better than average winger/center in the NHL. Ostlund plays with energy and pace seems like every shift and I see potential for a second line center/winger but at lowest a fast/creative 3rd liner. Savoie should be definitely Second line guy to me and potentially more. Fast, Creative, Smart, good hockey sense, passing & shooting is there. Just an all around good player. Exactly what you want. Excited for Buffalo. Not sure who their top end 1st liners are except Tage Thompson but seem like they really got a good mix of players coming up in their organization.
We need more
Let's go baby!
Wild fan here. Any idea what they turned down for 19 or 24?
Where is the one from this years lets gooooo
It’s soo obvious that there was an overdub around the 6:03 minute mark of the video, when they’re talking about their “ideal scenario”. Is that even Kevyn Adams voice they overdubbed with?
Yes I caught that too
Yeah they cut off Adams so as not to give away any possible mentions of trades or anything that would potentially alienate a current roster player. The guy that started talking at that moment was, I believe, Eddie Olczyk from a TV commentary.
To stanley cup against vancouver
Wanted him on Detroit
C O N V E R S A T I O N S
Omg. It annoys me how much Adams uses that word
It takes a lot of work to miss the playoffs for 20 straight years
I enjoyed the episode. I’ve always loved the embedded series. But I just wish it was longer. Being only 11 minutes long is kind of lame. These episodes used to always be at least 20-25+ minutes long. Why was this one so short? Didn’t have the budget, or what?
This gm is just as bad as botterill and murray....they all were clueless
Why's that? I'd like to know because I totally disagree with your comment. As do most fans I would expect.
