This sounds about right. It’s not as if TG was proactively shopping the team, but I don’t think it was a secret either that he would sell them to the right person when it came along. I don’t think Terry blindly called to buy the team. IIRC, Balsillie offered something like $75 million more than TPeg did, but TG said no.

My memories could be wrong, but I thought at the time it was no secret that the Sabres were for sale, but that the only bites TG was getting were from people who would potentially move the team, and he only wanted to sell to someone who would keep them in Buffalo.

The Sabres are REALLY testing this.

They have an excellent shot at being very good right away.

It used to be called Team Stormcloud. I was a member.

The link no longer works. I’m disappointed that I can’t buy one.

I was shocked to hear that he had a wife.

"Dr. David Banner: physician, scientist; searching for a way to tap into the hidden strengths that all humans have. Then an accidental overdose of gamma radiation alters his body chemistry. And now when David Banner grows angry or outraged, a startling metamorphosis occurs...The creature is driven by rage and pursued by an investigative reporter. The creature is wanted for a murder he didn't commit. David Banner is believed to be dead and he must let the world think that he is dead until he can find a way to control the raging spirit that dwells within him."

As a member of SabreSpace, I’m forever indebted to everyone’s priceless advice. Except when it comes to Carey Price.

Then they better be drafting Money, or Respect.

This is a thread?

If they acquired his rights, there’s no guarantees he would’ve signed with the Sabres. Also this means FLA would’ve had to expose another player, which maybe they didn’t want to do. I don’t think the Sabres can re-sign Ullmark until the 28th, but I could be wrong.

Is that like a golf clap?

I guess maybe I’m confused about what you were trying to say in what I bolded. The Sabres and other teams other than Seattle aren’t able to sign UFA’s until July 28. You specifically mentioned Dreidger, but it’s not like Buffalo was able to sign him yet.

According to Ranger fans, they won’t trade any of their prospects at all. They don’t even want Eichel, unless it’s for a 7th round pick.

Has to be a joke, or someone bored.

So, you would have wanted to trade for a UFA goalie, just to protect, that may or may not have signed with Buffalo afterwards? The Sabres could’ve have protected Ullmark, but it doesn’t make sense.

This makes sense if you’re trading Risto after losing Borgen for a Borgen or better replacement, plus a pick or whatever. Otherwise, you expose Risto and possibly get nothing and keep Borgen. OR, you are just happy with a completely green D core of Dahlin, Joki, Borgen, Bryson, Samuelsson, and Power.

Just send JBotts and all of his cohorts some garbage plates and a handwritten note asking them to select Miller, and be done with it.

That would be my move as well.

If the devil asks you to dance, you better say ‘never,’ Because a dance with the devil, might last you forever.

I’ve never heard of Graves, and Risto wore a pigtail wig, so Risto is worth more

I’m a big fan of the ending of Edward Scissorhands
