Empty blue seats can't boo. 😉

Sean Malone call up?

NEVER. Not even if he has surgery while still Sabres property, and teams want to see him in action prior to trading for him.

If the calls KA is making/receiving on John all end rather quickly because of KA's demands, then maybe it is time to realize the asking price has to be lowered. He knows his player is broken, and value is greatly diminished.

I’d love to know how this would have occurred?

Also a placeholder.

Definitely a placeholder.

A/C turned off for the season. Furnace already running. 😞

I had speculated a month or two ago that the NHL may step in and somehow get this resolved. Now what this “one off” deal/assistance from Bettman & Co may be, who knows?

…and one of those two is not Drysdale.

The biggest problem getting fans back to KBC is the box office single game prices are ridiculous. Example…Tix for Fridays game in the corner of lower level bowl where Sabres shoot twice start at $138. I wouldn’t pay that even if they were a Stanley Cup contender.

Is he playing center or wing?

Very disappointing ending. I thought they had the game won…or at least tied and going to OT. That being said, a friend texted me this morning saying “they were not going to finish 16-1”. I was in Nashville in 2019 for the Bills win, and I feel for the fans who had a GREAT weekend which ended on a real downer.

Ridiculous statement by EF. Two completely different situations. 👎

Your self imposed exile can’t happen soon enough. 🤞

There is also no need to come out of the gate making stupid proclamations! 😉

Disappointing season opener! 😞

Another LAMP post. There is a Rochester 21-22 thread for all Amerks discussion. 🤔

I'm not sure what KA(along with Kim & Terry) are doing. Trying to trade a broken John with no salary retention is equal to no value. Refusing to allow him his surgical option and just letting this stalemate to continue is not going to improve his value. What happened to 5 teams being "heavily in" on a trade for John? Let me repeat, letting this drag on without medical resolution isn't going to make his value go up. Other GM's are not idiots.

Thanks for the link!

I thought the same thing. I would pay $30-40 for all Amerks games, but $65+ tax? No thanks.

The way 3 on 3 is played now is just conservative coaching strategy. There was nothing close to this type of 3 on 3 play when they first implemented it. The coaches have taken an exciting part of the game, and made it boring more often than not.

I agree with this. 👍

Nominated for most optimistic and ridiculous post.

I wonder if John is watching the Sabres games?
