Is this our new 3C?

I am still holding out hope that there will be two changes to a blueline that sucked last year...and I'm not talking about Borgen becoming #7, or even worse, the two scrubs just signed make the team. I was hoping for two of McCabe, Risto, Miller & Montour being moved out, and the blueline rebuilt.

Sign and trade. I dislike Montours game immensely. 👎

You think Girgs would have received that salary and term if he signed elsewhere? I’d bet the house that it never happens.

WTF...Girgs gets 800k more per year and an extra year of term compared to Larsson who would have been the better player to retain? This is what Girgs should have been signed for. He had little value on the open market and the flat cap.

Not that I’m a huge fan of his, but for $50k more they could have had Pysyk instead of Irwin? 😱

I thought they had to shed massive salary?

How does that help them sign Petro?

...and retain 50% on MAF! 😉

Remember this next time you go on one of your draft rants because they didn’t take the player you wanted. 😂😂😂

Staal only had one other choice...retire.

Yeah...but we have Tage, Casey and Toby! Take that Boston! I know, I know....plenty of time. It’s only day 2.

I was being sarcastic. 😉

Hutton's eye doctor as good as a FA signing?

Not sure.

Here you go... This afternoon, the Buffalo Sabres announced that six pending restricted free-agents had received qualifying-offers from the team. Sam Reinhart, Brandon Montour, Casey Mittelstadt, Lawrence Pilut, Victor Olofsson, and Linus Ullmark were all tendered their QO’s before today’s deadline. Still looking for the list of RFA's who were not extended an offer...other than Kahun. [edited]Here are the guys that did not receive a QO.. Remi Elie, Brandon Hickey, Dominik Kahun, and Matthew Spencer were all not extended a qualifying offer. The team could still sign them when free agency opens.

So Barrie out, Brodie in. Is that an upgrade, downgrade, or pretty much an even swap?

Let’s see what comes after Reider and Irwin. 😉 The good news...nowhere to go but up. 👍

Nice tracker... https://nhl.nbcsports.com/2020/10/09/nhl-free-agency-tracker-2020-taylor-hall-alex-pietrangelo-torey-krug/

Maybe add the RFA’s who were qualified, and those kicked to the curb? thanks

I don’t know what GAR is, but I don’t like the words “worst defender” associated with a guy we signed a few hours into FA.

If you say so. I will patiently wait for a goalie, 3C, a top 6 wing, etc...

Can someone tell Adams that you identify and fill your biggest holes...FIRST! 😱

Some teams are shopping at the Galleria, and others at Dollar Tree! 🤪
