Adam back to the Roch

@BillHoppeSabres
Also, Luke Adam has been sent to Rochester. Zack Kassian is up. Cody McCormick is day2day.

"If we needed any more motivation to win a Cup sooner than later, we've got one now," Black said. "I really want to listen to the game that RJ calls when he finally gets to shout out, 'Buffalo wins the Stanley Cup.'"
"Do it or Die Trying."

Good move all around. Kassian has been playing well. Adam has desperately needed this. He could either act like a dog with a tail between its legs or come out fighting and get his confidence back. Let’s hope he does the latter.

Agreed

I’ve been calling for Adam to be sent down to Rochester for awhile now, Makes zero sense for a young prospect to get 6 to 9 minutes a night in the NHL when he can further develop in the AHL and play 17-20 minutes.

It does if they want him to understand he has to play in his own zone.

I personally believe you need game speed reps in order to develop. How are you going to learn Defensive responsibilities when you get only a handful of chances to execute them?

Glad to see Brennan is healthy too. Both clubs getting healthy.

+1

Spot-on, couldn’t agree more. Plus, if these kids remain positive (and really there is no reason they shouldn’t be..) this shuffling call-ups will guarantee us one uber-hungry kid each game, which can totally be a difference maker.
