  1. I’m not saying he is going to be a force in 21-22, but the comparison to Fedun is a little unfair. 😉
  2. One other note, I think Peters, and or Rivet would have been put in a better spot to succeed, if paired with a host such as Duff to begin with. Peters was always to "all over the board" to play the role of host.
  3. Maybe this was covered in the 300+ page Eichel thread, but if has surgery(or even doesn't have surgery), and ends up on LTIR for the season(s), or maybe his career, do the Sabres have insurance that covers his yearly salary, or do they still pay for it out of their pockets?
  4. I believe it will be a much smoother and professional show...and maybe even more informative.
  5. So far... @LabattBlue @Srw1525 @North Buffalo @steveoath (depending on draft date) @Andrew Amerk @Norcal @Let's Go B-Lo @drnkirishone
  6. Could the mods pin this for the next two weeks. Assuming we can get to 10 teams, the tentative draft would be sometime between 10/1 and the start of the season.
  7. He fights? This is unacceptable. The roster must be comprised of 20 skaters who don’t hit, fight or even say anything nasty to an opponent.
  8. Oh Johnny…come out come out wherever you are. It’s time to see the doctor. He won’t hurt you, and if you are a good boy, he will give you a sucker on your way out. 😂
  9. Didn’t see any of it, but glad to see a positive result. 👍
  10. There is an agreed upon prospect criteria by all the teams involved. It may change from year to year. Who knows what it is this year, but either the Sabres view him as making the team, and don't want to risk injury, or the criteria eliminated him from participating.
  11. I asked in the other fantasy hockey thread about taking over the existing(dormant) league, but got no response, so I thought we could just start from scratch. Looking for owners who will at the very least set an active lineup each week, and try and improve their team on a regular basis. 10 or 12 teams. As of 9/21... 1 - Labatt Blue(joined) 2 - Srw1525(joined) 3 - North Buffalo(joined) 4 - steveoath(joined) 5 - Andrew Amerk(joined) 6 - Norcal(joined) 7 - Let's Go B-Lo(joined) 8 - drnkirishone(joined) 9 - dudacek(joined) 10 - SwampD(joined) 11 - gilbert11(joined) 12 - pastajoe(joined)
  12. Doesn’t matter how far they moved up. My point is if another team picked Allen before 7, how brilliant would they be today? Simple question.
  13. It is embarrassing…and don’t confuse the Bills as a fine tuned organization. They were lucky Josh lasted until pick 7, or wherever they took him. Without him, they would still be a middle of the pack team looking to move on from Rosen.
  14. …and that surprises you?
  15. Problem could have been addressed the last two drafts, but they chose to do otherwise. That leads to jerking around a 19 year old prospect.
  16. I agree 100%. One step further, the mid 70’s were a great time in general to be a Buffalo sports fan.
  17. Automated phone menus. You used to be able to hit “0” repeatedly and it would get you to a live person. Now it is much more difficult. 😡
  18. 😢
  19. @darksabre @SDS
  20. https://theathletic.com/2824584/2021/09/13/sabres-2021-prospects-challenge-what-are-the-stakes-this-season-for-every-player-on-the-roster/?source=user_shared_article
  21. Fair enough. I will wait to unleash my fury until after he lets in one bad goal.😂
  22. I'd be willing to take over commish duties for SS Blue...assuming there is a spot for me. 🙂
  23. Unfortunately, when you draft a bunch of college and Euro players year after year, you end up fielding a prospect challenge team comprised of 1/3 or more players, you don't have the rights to, and/or they don't belong in a tournament at this level.
  24. If Eichel isn’t a Sabre(or is, and is on LTIR), and no goalie moves are made, this team may rival the tank teams. Bottom 3 team for sure. I voted choice #4.
  25. The OL was mediocre last year, yet BB brought the entire group back. I think that group will be a problem all year long…especially in the running game.
