Sabres Fan in NS

Anybody else feel old? I have not heard of the vast majority of those. Even if I recognize the band name I don't know the tunes. Just one for sure ... thanks Skinny.

Have to hope he scores a hundred ... all at home.

I know he was an extra skater, Inky. They will not dress 14 forwards. Hiney-Stroka was an extra skater and he will dress for the game. If for no other reason than his name being sweeter. Fitz (7D) will dress for the game tonight. Who is the backup backup goaler?

Bjork will sit this one out. I presume.

The Lightning did it and things worked out pretty well for them. I think that if you trust your hockey talent evaluators and developers you will have a good feel for who belongs long term. Then you sign those players long term on the best deal you can make with the player. Everyone is going to be happy and the player will be working hard to show that they are worth the current contract and will show that they will want to earn the next and bigger one.

CLOSE ENOUGH!! Especially where I am. Fans in California and Hawaii and Guam will almost always have the GDT started a day early. And this is a ... MUST WIN!! GO SABRES!! ... game. They all are.

They have to be trying to sign at least one of the other two kids lazing about someplace (Potillo and that other guy). This is why you have to pick a goaler someplace in every draft.

This is great !!

Just nonsense that Mule will be leaving as soon as he can and saying that his father is not liking that the Sabres drafted him and blah, blah , blah ... posted by someone and the posts were not based on anything really. They went back and deleted the original posts, but the ones that were quoted are still there in all their glory, as regular posters called out the nonsense of the posts. Dude even changed his user name recently to better reflect the state of his being. I won't out him, but these things can be found out.

Just terrible takes most of which were deleted, but you can't run and hide your idiocy if it's quoted.

Welcome !! Since you are named after a Prophet and Messenger of God (not to mention the Patron Saint of Bosna i Hecegovina due to your importance to Muslims (of which I am one), Roman Catholics and Orthodox Christians ... second only to Moses in the Hebrew Bible traditions) I will not send you a beer. There is a reasonable chance that you are closer in your analysis of the next contract for Cozens. He is liked by management and other players. He has great potential and works hard. He is likely to be a key part of this team going forward.

Who pissed in your Cheerios this morning? Mr. Positivity, eh !! The playoffs will come. Book it. Possibly this year. Soon !!

I think Cozens will sign a very similar contract to this one. Maybe as high as 7 and $35M, but more likely 7 at $4.75M AAV.

This deal is perfect. It will be a bargain in about 2 or 3 years. This guy will be the defensive anchor on a very good Sabre team. Likely top pairing with Dahlin or maybe 2nd pairing with Power as the years go by and other players develop.

Indeed. GM ... check. Coach ... check. Tage ... check ........... there will be more announcements coming. I expect before season's end we will hear that Dahlin has signed an 8 year $85M extension.

In 2 years the fans will forget all about the last 10+ years of crap. That's when this guy will show what he has to the NHL.

All KA did was buy 2 years for the next very good to great goalie to be ready (I believe it is Levi). IMO, KA did a good job bringing in a better goalie in Comrie. The Sabres will be fine and will learn a lot about team defense over the next two seasons and will win a lot of games in doing so.

This is good news. It shows the Sabre management and ownership really believe in this guy and what he is doing with the team. It also tells me that management is happy with the players they have and how they are developing together. This is it. These are your Buffalo Sabres ... players and coaches for the foreseable future.

Damn phone !!

Welcome!! Sent you a beer. All I have to say is ... Pirate radio on pirate satelite ... orbitting your living room ... 😎 (am I right @Sabel79?? ... you better say *yes*)

Kyle has been the Captain of this team for the past 2 seasons. He has been a leader since he arrived. Others are emerging as leaders and will get their time as / if things continue to progress. Kyle is the perfect Captain for the next year or two. I also support the Alternate Captains. I suspect that Tuch will wear an 'A' in the event of injury to any of the letter wearers.

Relax !! Don't do it ... When you want to go to it ... ===== The Jays will be fine. ===== Also, what happened to Pomminstein ??

This is terrible and keeps getting worse. I really thought that she would take immediate steps to clean this mess up. They (whoever they are) got to her. Hockey Canada should be shut down. Fire everybody and have the provinces run their own associations and just have a consutant firm organize when a Team Canada has to compete internationally or host an international tournament. We do not need a Canada wide organization for this.

Right on !! I never liked the variations, but some were funny.

Good for him. Nearly the last pick in 2013 (maybe 2014) and he really worked himself into something. Top pairing D on a very good team. I watched him play in Halifax and thought he had a good future if he worked hard and was given a chance.
