What’s next for Jiri Kulich and Isak Rosén?
With Seth Appert on his way to Buffalo as an assistant coach, will Jiri Kulich and Isak Rosén join him on the Sabres next season? Do struggles in the playoffs mean they’ll start in Rochester again? Sneaky Joe argues that it’s time to either call Rosén up to Buffalo or trade him.
Plus, why Sam Bennett is the perfect player for the Sabres this offseason.

I like Ryan Johnson over Clifton, looking for room for Savoie
Bennett is from Ontario. Maybe he would bite.
You almost HAVE to trade out some prospects. Like it's not even feasible to keep Savoie, Kulich, Rosen, Ostlund, Wahlberg. 5 guys for like 2, maybe 3 spots? Unless they just say screw it, go 2007 route and have 4 lines of fast young scoring forwards. Even then they had some grit and physicality on the fourth line.
On Appert, it really made a whole lot more sense to me why Lukas Rousek just never shot. Like ever. Appert saying, "I'd take the extra 2 or 3 passes for a high scoring chance than a shot on goal" eventually isn't going to make a dent when you're behind. Have to get the puck to the net and let up on the fancy passing stuff.
Rosen has competed 3 years of development, not 4.
Bennett is a tremendous player but I would be shocked if he would come to Buffalo.
Agreed Bennett would be a perfect 3rd line centre .Question is what would it cost? Would the 11th pick in this summers draft , Jokiharju and Rosen get it done?
Too replace the right shot Jokiharju go sign a more stay at home, more physical right shot D man in Pesce Carolina, Tanev Dallas , Hakkanpaa Dallas or Josh Brown Arizona who are all UFA this summer .
I would like a Wilson type from Washington older but gritty and can do and teach some stuff
We need elite forwards we only have 1 in Thompson, fumbled the bag drafting 7-12 every year and taking a d 1st overall twice, Dahlin isn’t even the best defenseman in his own class
Why is seth on his way to buffalo
The fact that they promoted seth tells me at least Kulich will be full time in Buffalo next season. Rosen maybe part time with some time back in Rochester to work with Ostlund and Wahlburg. I've watch both in Rochester for last two years and they are special. Rosen got a quick shot but hes kinda small. for Kulich when he is hot watch out. when hes not, hes really not just compare this and last seasons post season for Amerks
Olofsson was developed in Sweden not Rochester. Taylor NEVER developed any players. If Novikov improves his skating he will be a very good defenseman for Sabres. But his turning is brutal too.
Matt Ellis is named assistant coach also, well…he better not be in control of special teams. That was a punch in the gut seeing him named an assistant coach. Seeing Adams kept him on board was bad enough, but I heard he was going to be assigned to a different area. So maybe he will not be a PP specialist…perhaps it will be Seth. Either way I don't have a good feeling about this season with Appert and Ellis as assistant coaches.
One potentially good sign with Appert is the fact that he was able to adapt to Granatos coaching style in Rochester. Not that the style translates to success, just that he was able to adapt.
So if Ruff is able to find success here and Appert is able to adapt to Lindy’s style the same way, I believe that Seth could take over as HC when Lindy hangs them up.
Roseanne
Seth assistant head coach…okay I'm good with that. They still need another seasoned type coach. Need help on pp. And face-offs.
Savoie is can't miss.
