Thanks MillerVaive. Maybe there is light at the end of the tunnel. Sabre fans will need sunglasses when that day comes!

It seems to me that there will be enough changes in the lineup to change the locker room to start the season. Whether it will remain that way after Thanksgiving will depend on wins and losses.

Thanks. It really is hard to understand all the "nuances" of the NHL contracts. I've "googled" around but it seems you only get a bit here and a bit there.

Jack - C Okposo - A Risto or Scandella - A I would think if Risto really wanted it he should get it. If he is not really interested then Scandella would be fine. With everything that went on with Okposo and how the team "rallied" around him, he should be a "no brainer".

With the uncertainty of which player Sam will become in the coming years, isn't a bridge deal the best way to go? If that is reasonable, why is 3 year bridge not as advantageous as a 2 as some are saying? I would think the longer 3 year deal would not cost much more than 2. It's my 1st post after being a "lurker" some time.
