Lehner is in no way shape or form an elite goaltender and he wasn’t playing elite goaltending. This past year he was playing very good. In front of a very good team. And player for player… Vegas had a way more solid team this season than the Sabres did when Lehner was on the Sabres. Even if you include ROR. If the Sabres had the “2020 level Lehner” back in 2017-2018 and ROR, This team may have barely squeaked into the playoffs… Maybe.

Very interesting where Toronto ended up on that chart. That seems odd to me. Don’t get me wrong, I like it… It just seems… Off.

I don’t disagree with any of that… And it also doesn’t discount at all what I said in my post. That’s of course If that’s what you were intending with your reply. If not… Carry on 😬

And every professional athlete that I’ve heard comment about the whole pull up thing has said no pull ups, or one pull up, or 50 pull ups makes absolutely no difference in how he’s going to perform in the least, for a professional hockey team.

Don’t act like ALL teams didn’t have Reinhart as the #1 forward to pick in 2014. Spoiler alert... they did. Don’t act like Zadorov is a better all around D man than Risto. Spoiler alert ... he’s not. Pysyk has made a nice career for himself. No issue with that pick. Most, teams and draft boards had Mitts right where we drafted him. It was absolutely not an off the wall crazy pick by any means. Yes, the Sabres rushed him. And his development has suffered. But that has absolutely nothing to do with the spot he was drafted at.

If the Sabres don’t upgrade this season in goal ... they are .... Dunn. And if the Sabres are dunn, then I think Eichel, Hall, and a few others are dunn being a Sabre.

Well then we need to get rid of those soft players named Skinner, Eichel, and Olofsson because they definitely don’t clear the crease AND aren’t power forwards.

70’s ... Perreault 80’s ... Andreychuk 90’s ... Hasek 2000’s ... Drury 2010’s ... Miller

Exactly. I can’t wait for the friggin day where he retires so we no longer see his name being brought up into potential moves that could get him to come back to Buffalo. Especially because he absolutely positively will not sign with another team besides a West Coast team. So his name should be absolutely avoided from any kind of possible option to have him play goalie again for the Buffalo friggin Sabres. Bloody hell. Rant over 😂

Updated OP 👍🏼 If there are any moves, hires, trades, signings etc... that I missed, please let me know.

The team also needs smart players who are incredible passers and setup men. Who can also get 45-55 points a season. Reinhart has that in spades.

IF Hall has a 70+ point season.... he’ll request (and get from some team) a 10 mil. per contract. Probably 5-7 years too. So can the Sabres afford it? Probably not. Unless we move Okposo and Risto. And probably a little more than that too.

IMO ... The 2020-2021 season isn’t in jeopardy of not happening. Chance of it being ... Shortened? Yes. Adjusted? Yes. Different in a few ways? Yes. But not in jeopardy of not happening at all. UNLESS the pandemic gets much worse and profound throughout both countries.

Hey Orge, you’ll appreciate this ... made this about 8 years ago. Took 2 1/2 hours non stop to gut and make. It was a 30” diameter pumpkin. Approximately 40-45 lbs. before gutting.

Yea but but but ... how’s the + / - of what went out vs. what’s coming in? 😂

I love Mexican food. But as a US born with Euro skin ... I don’t want to take the risk of getting shot or kidnapped. For me, and for my safety and my wife, we reluctantly won’t go to Mexico. Which sucks. And staying in the “safety” of a resort isn’t my definition of a vacation. And I’ve read too many stories of resorts not being super safe as well... so as of now, we won’t go. Regrettably. But hey, everyone doesn’t agree with the risks, and go to Mexico all the time. Good for them...

I love what the Leafs are doing. It’s delicious. Keep doing that. Yea, that right there. Don’t stop. 😂

Well, since none of them were alive for the Hindenburg that was probably a pretty dramatic scene that I saw. They probably never experienced anything close to that in their lives… So their reaction is pretty typical normal and expected.

Exactly. That’s why I can see maybe maybe 10 huge hits a season.

He would, but it would be a rare thing. Like maybe 10 times a year. Maybe... Plus in today’s game, even clean hard hits means you have to go out and fight on your next shift. It’s lame.

And some fans will grab onto that. And believe every syllable because it fits their narrative of not liking Sam. And other fans will consider the source....

I’d be 100% fine with getting Sam for that. Even a smidge more would be fine too.

Obvious is obvious ...

Goaltending upgrade and solid depth. Get those things and Sabres are serious contenders for making the playoffs and getting past the 1st round.
