Frenchy SUCKS!

Check back in a week.

Stastny's agent is on the phone now. He'll do it but he wants 7x8 from us. What's that? Ya me either! I previously have said all along Vanek is going to get 9 mil. Despite it all I still think he will but maybe not from Minny. The silly season is but days away and these GM's who need relief from themselves are going to be in a frenzy even more so due to the lack of high end guys. So like I said 5x5 for Bolland. Ott I guess the same. I understand Eleven (getting angry now) and Tanks feelings and would say I share them, But the wookie and me seem to realize whats on the radar more than you guys. Did you see the deal Markov got? How freaking stupid is that? But they did it. These deals are going down and we need to accept if not ever understand them. Now then, who's got that goofy Ron Paul it's happening gif? or do we wait until The official start of silly season? The extra days of hype are going to contribute even more to these deals on top of it all.

I think this off season, or actually the next few weeks is going to be fun and some stuff we'll love, and some we surely won't but the approach and tactic of GMTM is already a breath of fresh air. I'm sure if he had his way he wouldn't even need to spend to the cap floor this year. But my friend, the times they are a changing.

Understood. But I really never want to see Matty Ellis in a Sabres uniform again. Or Kanopka, Scott, and several others so money is no issue and we will need bodies. And good teammates for those that are here. Close to home, cup winning experience, two or three years younger than Ott maybe, could maybe score 20, add some grit and the overpay is something that's not an issue to us. I could see an argument for him.

Lol I'm just expecting the size of Leon to be to much to pass over as he has the upper level skill to go with it. I'm then expecting some big move to stay up top. S'all.

If Ott's not taking our money is Bolland? 5x5?

Our pick is in. It's Leon. And what's surprising is the trade with the Oilers that gets us Bennett as well.

**raises hand** That's not really fair. They did bring in Dagostini, Konopka and Conacher to right the ship!

Not always. Sometimes we do have direct input. Takeo Spikes Buffalo Bills.

If they trade Zadorov I would be stunned and disheartened. That dude is Chris Pronger for us for a decade + He is the absolute untradeable guy to me and Girgs is a very close second who I envision growing up to Mark Messier.

Sabres bitched about so many back to backs. League fixed that by taking away a lot of weekend games. Sabres bitched about so many weekday games and not enough weekend games. League fixed that by adding a lot of back to backs. Sabres wont bitch about it this year as it will help the tanking?

Season ticket holder here. I've said this before but I'll say it again. No way we are finishing last in the second year under Nolan. With some interesting moves we could seriously improve. While I would like to win the prize at the end of next season by winning draft lotto, this past season was simply to much to endure as a season ticket holder. So I renewed my tickets! The arena experience was worse than stepping in steaming hot dog ###### with no shoes on. If we do finish last I expect to see far more entertaining hockey next season and think it will be a goalies fault if we end up dead last. I would be quite happy with a season like that. If we end up with another first for this draft tank nation is over.

My take away from that is he wants size and referred to guys being Buffalo Sabres size. In talking of Ennis I think he likes enough to sign him long term. But if Tyler doesn't want a long term deal he can say goodbye. I have nothing bad to say about Tim's appearance. He looks better than me! But I will say he may want to get that Gerd checked out! I am so glad to have Tim Murray as our GM.

It's for weasels. It should not be allowed. It even got Weasel Darcy fired up for what happened and he would never stoop to that level to use it. The GM's that done it, without knowing off the top of my head are also probably no longer employed. Edit: I'm sure we would have given Vanek his proper worth at the time. What he got was a joke. Looks good on the Oil that they have managed to screw up so bad even with all those number 1's.

I hope we NEVER offer sheet anyone. It's garbage and we of all people know it. The hockey gods will be coming around for us instead of against us very soon.

You do realize that line up makes the playoffs right?

Sounds like a better plan than bringing in Irbe imo.

This is Buffalo lol! We are so bad that people seem to forget about that losing the A thing. No worries though. With Ott coming back he will be wearing the C again. Not saying he's all that but he more than proved capable and will allow young guys to mature and will certainly stick up for them and yap for them. I think he comes back knowing he signs a nice five year deal that keeps him here for some glory years for being willing to endure the bottom for a couple.

Time to change the title! http://www.wgr550.com/The-Sabres-waive-Leino/19235590

Thinking that Ville is listening to Steve Miller Band right about. Go on take the money and run.

I get your points. I was thinking of free agent pick up or someone coming back in a trade. I respect your opinion and I also have one. Or maybe the veteran guy could be McBain. :w00t:

I'm fine with a veteran who looks and acts like he wants to be here. A la Ott. I'm not fine with a vet that looks and acts like he'd rather not be stuck on a full blown rebuild. Or someone whose skill is so far deteriorated like Hank. Much as like him there are other vets that could contribute much more for us.

I believe the rule is the 15th or 48 hours after the cup is awarded. Either way Monday should be the end. This is the end...

How many of those does he play like he did this season?
