Ripper

Not the real Ripper. One college freshman day I had a date with a bottle of Thunderbird wine (puke). I stumbled back to the dorm and then slept 26 consecutive hours. It’s been “Rip” van Winkle ever since! LOL

I’m sorry Stoner. I owe you an apology. In your first response you were criticizing the Sabres and not me. I failed to read your context properly. Thanks for your support and I’ll be more careful in the future.

Nice shot. I’m listening to the Vegas broadcast only and of course routing for the Sabres. I’ve been a fan since the beginning and would put my fandom up against yours anyday. Well stoner, be reasonable and get your head out of the bowl once in a while.

Trying something different tonight. Going to listen to the Vegas broadcast. It’s hard to listen to the Sabres broadcast. There are so many things that I have issue with. Dunleavy seems like a nice guy, but when you listen to each broadcast, there are gaps in coverage, and he doesn’t give the time remaining often enough nor inform the audience who is on the ice. I listed to every game due to eye issues, so its a very frustrating ordeal.

Trouba

NO NO NO You lugnuts, would't recognize a bad owner until he is here and moves the team out of town. Watch what you ask for. 13 years? No big deal for those with broad shoulders and listen to every game win or lose. We don't want whips for fans.

I had the same problem with the Audacy and GR apps. I solved the problem by going to acdacy.com and acquiring the station there. Thus far, no problems.

Funny Risto is brought up tonight. I was listening to the Flyers broadcast of the Bruins game. They (homers broadcasters) marveled over his physical play and stated that Risto never learned the proper way to play defense because he played for a lousy team/organization since his career began. Guess they don't follow analytics lol

Lets give KA some love too. He had to ask for Hagg

So much for the old "core" --- See ya

Say what they will. But we get 2 points for every win just like they got for beating us!

Your first question was answered in my post above. Regarding the second question, Bisson is the agent for Eichel and Zegras. Lets get er done.

These would be two separate trades. Four pieces for Eichel - two firsts, one third and a top prospect. The second trade is a 1st and a 3rd/Mitts for Zegras/Krebs. I throw in Mitts as an option because in order to get value you have to give up some value. Mitts seems to be on the rise and I'm rooting for that. However, IMO Zegras and Krebs have more upside.

Regarding the Carolina offer sheet to Jaspari Kotkoniemi at $6.1M. How about this: Montreal does not match offer sheet and receives Carolina's 2022 1st and 3rd round picks. Montreal trades their 2022 1st round pick, Carolina's 1st round and 3rd round pick plus a high level prospect to Buffalo for John Bob. Buffalo trades one of their four 2022 first round picks to Anaheim or Vegas plus the Carolina 3rd round pick or Mitts for Zegras or Krebs. Essentially: Montreal loses Kotkomiemi and a high prospect and gets John Bob. Anaheim/Vegas gets a 2022 1st round pick, a 3rd round pick or Mitts for Zebras/Krebs. Buffalo gets a 1st round pick, Zegras/Krebs, a high level prospect from Montreal and a 3rd round pick or keeps Mitts. Any takers?

I really like McTavish's game and attitude while on the ice. McTavish and Drysdale = sign me up! Anything more is icing.
