I would hope lightning strikes the GM if he made that idiotic of a trade. What we always have to trade away our top scorer? Or is it just because you hate Thompson?

I loved a Pens fan offering M Pettersson for Jokiharju and a 4th Get E Pettersson for Cozens and Byram Pettersson reinforcements and we’d have 30 games to figure out an extension with Marcus to be Power’s partner.

I'd do Cozens and Byram but as I've said before our 1st is off the table without Top 5 protection

Honestly the rest of the trade makes some sense; but the Chicago part just seems underwhelming for all that their doing facilitating the trade.

More or less accurate, there's a UDC Nils Juntorp also involved. The part I can't wrap my head around is what exactly Chicago got out of this whole mess. Apparently they retained 50% of Rantanen and traded Hall to Carolina for their own 3rd back. Not exactly a coup

The only issue there is he’s no longer trying to be bad by all accounts. Though it also shows that Pegula does have some degree of input on the team. Especially after watching Tim Murray’s goaltending carousel

The Sabres mean quite a bit to me; in part as my great-grandparents were part of my original reason for becoming interested in the team.

I wouldn't; I'd be incredibly depressed

Oh I'm furious but would never want to lose my team; no matter how bad it may be. Buffalo loses far too much and losing the hockey team would just be another knife to the gut.

If we sign our guys I doubt the apparent internal cap will play any part in it. Pegula has shown plenty of times he's willing to pay out the bucks to players. He just hates paying anyone not to be here and/or will look for contractual circumstances that may have a cheaper way of paying it.

Maybe its because you aren't in Buffalo anymore but for those of us still here its location is also paramount.

I doubt we survive another dumpster fire season; they've burned every last bit of good will into ash then shoved it into an atomizer.

Wouldn't consider it a meltdown tbh They gave up 1 goal on a triple deflection then their PP did absolutely nothing until they gave up 2 ENGs I do however agree that it was certainly a winnable game

What a ***** joke, never be aggressive with this team; they are incapable of doing it right

Seems like they have no default option in those cases. They like putting their D in jackpots

So let's see; we had at least 4 sticks broken in the 2nd 1 or 2 cost us a goal against 2 cost us good scoring chances VAN's goal was a pure lucky bounce Where's Zucker?

Only if the team stays is that a viable option

There's a few players who seem invested in the Bills Tuch is an obvious one Dahlin has really become a fan with his friendship with Dion Dawkins A few other players definitely have a passing interest

The biggest thing with Pettersson would be what else do they want with it. I wouldn't give them Cozens, Byram and our 1st for him.

Frankly I'd trade it if said player was out there; but I personally don't believe it exists. Plus I don't have any interest in just throwing it into a larger trade for the sake of "value."

As per always, when our teams can be screwed; we most certainly do.

And yet anyone with a brain knows that won't be the case. There isn't a snowball's chance in hell we'll get anywhere near the value of the 1st overall from anyone we might acquire using it. And as we all seen tonight, if we can be embarrassed by unusual and/or rare situations we tend to. Plus I really don't feel like endless Mahomes-like talk when referring to the Sabres trading the 1st overall as said pick tears up the league. Not to mention I wouldn't trust Adams to use it in a trade to begin with.

Muel did go to him but the ref wouldn’t let him get even close

These refs are bloody idiots

What happened to Muel’s brain? He’s made two baffling plays in this game and he also fired a puck off the back board in an attempt to clear on the PK
