With Ruff back the Sabres should show more life but do they have enough talent?

[Buffalo Rick]

Skinner and Olofsson are gone.  Lindy is back and that may inspire the team.  They have some guys that can score like Thompson, Cozens, Tuch, Paterka and with Jack Quinn back and hopefully healthy for a full season, big things are expected from him.  The defense on paper is good, at least above average as far as defensemen with the ability to pinch and score. Dahlin and Power go without saying, and even Jokuharu who I wanted to run out of town, has been pretty good.  Samuelson is a good D man.  There are some that I know little about up front. I have heard from a local writer they should be tougher.  Have some grinders but is there enough to score?  At least they now have Luukenen.  And he is the goalie moving forward.  Im not sure if Levi is the backup.  That is yet to be determined but its probable that he will win out.  But for the first time in a while I think we can feel confident about the goalie.  My biggest lack of confidence is in the GM who I do want to see fired.  Adams has not done enough in my opinion.  We will see if they can get in this time  They were close last year.  Its not asking that much to get a lower seed in the playoffs given a few teams are likely in rebuild mode.   Maybe teams like Washington and Pittsburgh are ripe for us to beat out. I know we are better than Montreal.  Thats not saying much though.  Im happy Ruff is back and that in itself has me up and ready with FUBO TV to watch the games.
