Sabres Fan in NS

Casey is a good player, but they could not keep every forward. I wanted him signed long-term. Things change when a very good 22 year old Dman comes on the market. Where did Casey figure in here - 2C / 2W ?? 3C ?? Same for Byram ?? The future is unwritten .. 😎 If I am a GM I would trade a top 6 F that looks to be surplus long-term for a top pairing Dman everytime - one that could be your #3 in 4 to 5 years when Power hits his prime. I know most here do not want to think about 4 to 5 years from now when we have miseed the playoff in forever. Me too, but for this trade we need to.

This is a fair and reasonable contract. Obviously not in the longer term plans or the Sabres would have offered a multi year contract. I think one of these years Joker will not be signed. Was he not UFA ?? I wonder if there was much interest - obviously not at $3.1M.

I know nothing of this guy, but I like him. He has no upper teeth and plays without fakes in there. Maybe not. It just means that was the prospect the Sabres were willing to part with, so they put it forward to prevent Edmonton from asking for Benson.

Nice to see the chicken head is back. And ... EHLERS !! 😎

👀

USMNT !! GO CANADA !! MUST WIN !! In the last 4 of Copa America. Going up against Messi next.

Are you sure about that ?? Maybe he's of Irish heritage ?? His brother is / was (?????) playing in Belfast.

No, so the key will be if the Sabres are better at preventing goals, which we all know wins in the playoff.

His numbers are still pretty good for an old guy.

My nights with @SwampD's wife are proving to be awesome ... 😎 For those of you who have no idea what I am rambling about ... https://www.amazon.ca/Girl-Storm-memoir-resilience-profound/dp/B0CJXBM1MH/ref=rvi_d_sccl_7/144-3501395-2680258?pd_rd_w=vnvsx&content-id=amzn1.sym.8b4d8c20-8e51-4634-a76f-c00a1995a502&pf_rd_p=8b4d8c20-8e51-4634-a76f-c00a1995a502&pf_rd_r=1J8JCJH6MRCD0HNEEGYT&pd_rd_wg=WsyIq&pd_rd_r=9603d330-f945-447b-921e-95633cfb6843&pd_rd_i=B0CJXBM1MH&psc=1

There is little doubt what is happening now is what DR envisioned all those years ago. It's what Scotty wanted to do even more years ago. It went off the rails when DR was told that TP was convinced by his Pittsburgh clowns that there was another way. That lead to the suffering.

Have fun, Joe. See ya.

I know he is good friends with the two you mentioned. They are all from Halifax so that is no surprise. Let's just agree to disagree. Crosby (and Marchand and McKinnon for that matter) are different than many others. I don't see any of them leaving their draft teams.

Yikes !! That's all. That's the post.

The poll should be public so I know who to shame for voting no to both.

They could be brothers.

He was a good soldier. Spending his entire career in what must have seemed like the 6th Army in the winter of 1942 / 43. He always gave his all and deserved better. Too bad he could not have ended up in Florida with KO. Speaking of which, any news from KO on what his plans are?

Something like 3 years and $15M, I'd say.

Terms ??

You can bet your bottom dollar that Skinner wanted to be here too.

K.

Should be banned for life.

He is this era's Mario. He will retire a Penguin.

At least I know who one of these guys is.

I don't think he would ever agree to be traded. He would retire before accepting a trade.
