I've been slacking....

I have been thinking about the Sabres and where I think they should go this off season.

This thread over at HFBoards.com was fun.

My team looked like this:

Vanek-Connolly-Skille
Hecht-Kennedy-Pominville
Marchant-Gaustad-Burish
Moen-Mair-Kaleta
Mancari-Paille

Regehr-Myers
Butler-Rivet
Lydman-Gilbert
Weber

Miller
Lalime

What I like:

• The defense - I especially like getting bigger and having 3 natural RH shots
• Adding a couple of players with rings - Marchant and Moen were character guys on the Ducks Cup winning team from a couple of years ago and I think that is an element that this team sorely lacks
• Getting rid of Tallinder and Roy

What I don't like:

• Still having Hecht
• Having to place Tim Kennedy as the 2nd line center - I would have preferred to get someone bigger in that spot. I may need to go for round two and tweak my Roy deal and maybe pass on Regehr and instead re-sign Spacek
• Lalime as the back up - Too much money for a guy that didn't look comfortable with spot start duty

But honestly, I'm expecting the Sabres to return with a roster with not even this many changes, so what's the point?
