Sabres Fan in NS

Around $56.1 million over the remaining years of his contract. How's that sound? Poop to follow below ... https://www.prohockeyrumors.com/2018/07/the-salary-cap-implications-of-a-shea-weber-early-retirement.html

Hot off the presses ... Seattle trades Borgen and a 2nd in 2024 for ... Risto. You heard it here first ... E2.13

Hyman for 8 years is pretty dumb, I think.

Can someone do a play by play? I'll hang up and listen ...

And we were worried about losing Borgen.

I think he and his agent would be all over the 8 at 6.5. He would still be in his prime at the end of it and would likely command, depending on the cap situation and CBA situation at that time, what? $15 million a season would be my guess.

It's gonna be a long night for you, my friend.

With all the Dman they are picking Borgen will be low on the pecking order. If Seattle tries to send him down he has to clear waivers and the Sabres would be first in line to make a claim, or so I've heard. It is very possible (likely?) that we will get him back.

The Sabres are the tightest ship that has ever sailed. We will know the pick this evening ... E2.25

In before the delete ... @LGR4GM ... GO!!

Likely, fake.

And Buffalo ????? Maybe they will basically pass on a pick and select a UFA that they have no intention of signing, or even spoke with?

Since the official thread is full of credible leaks can we close this one now?

Great post and great song. You are 100% correct on everything, except one small detail ... Gilmour was originally brought into the group to play guitar while Syd tried to sing and play a bit of guitar, due to his Acid addiction (??). Gilmour did not initially replace Syd. There was a period of almost 2 years and one album (if I recall correctly) where both were full members of the band. Syd more, or less, just drifted away. I don't recall any grand announcement, or otherwise, of his departure. The remaining members loved Syd ... the Wish You Were Here album is dedicated to and is about Syd.

Well, our mock draft set up @GASabresIUFAN is shot to heck.

From the dastardly Flyers ... Ghost There is one of the Dman they needed. EDIT: Not sure of how long remains on his contract, but his cap hit is pretty significant ($4.5, I think) for what Seattle will get.

I think that maybe he means Ralph the Sabre coach?

And ?????

I think it will be under $6, but some incentive, or signing bonus, or some such ...

Paging @carpandean to the fish monger thread ...

I think it was just one Roman that said it and it just took off from there, but not until the modern era when someone dusted off the old poem.

I love Perry's!!

This just in ... hot off the presses ... No offence, but you yanks need to stay the blazes home ... 😎 Trudeau has announced that the border will remain closed to general travel until August 21st, at least. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-us-land-border-1.6110800 EDIT: ***** ... it's you guys that are not opening your border ... lol!! Note to NS ... read the whole damn thing before going off half cocked ...

Balsillie is pretty broke, as he has given away much (he was worth about $700 million at the height of his wealth) in charitable work. I don't think he would be able to come with the financial backing.

Let the rumours fly in 3 ... 2 ... 1 ... GO!!
