The longer this goes it's got to be either Minn or back to NJ. Pens would be the easy choice.

Great news for Sabres fans if true.

If you mean everyone on Sabre Space, well then, yeah.

He had Ott deal last week

Hockeyy Insiderr ‏@HockeyyInsiderr Source: Parise and #Pens have agreed to deal. Will be announced shortly, still discussing pay allocation (very front loaded). #DoneDeal #WOW edit: Not sure why the above came up as most recent on my twitter feed (not too twitter savvvy I guess), but this tweet is from 7/1. However, his most recent tweets still claim two sources saying deal with Pens will be anounced today.

I'm flying into Buffalo tonight! My wife and kids have been up there since Saturday, I can't wait to escape this heat and humidity for a few days.

According to Darcy, the Sabres do have "offers" in on free agents, but he declined to identify who.

Darcy in his presser just said they have no interest in moving Ennis or Hodgson. We will see.

Could be. WGR guys says some of names they are seeing in rumors include Stafford and Ehrhoff.....

“@HockeyyInsiderr: Discussions progressing, but nothing imminent yet. I can confirm 100% though the #Sabres are the FRONT RUNNERS for Bobby Ryan. #NHLDucks” According to WGR, this guy was on the Ott for Roy deal last week.

I might have missed it, but I haven't read one post suggesting that this guy is anything more than what you state above.

No it wasn't Eklund. It was another source that they specifically pointed out has had correct info in the past before guys like McKenzie and Dreger.

Oh I don't mean to say it would be a slam dunk, but the potential would certainly be there for Lucic to have skull caved in. That potential has not existed on this roster for a very long time.

Howard Simon this morning was quoting some twitter source (sorry can't remember the name) who has been very reliable in the past stating the Sabres are kicking the tires on Jokinen and Semin (wtf?).

As others have pointed out, Lucic would never be dumb enough to drop the gloves with this guy. Last year there wasn't a single purse carrying Sabre that would have a prayer against Lucic. This guy can cave his skull in. His presence will lurk in the back of guys minds before running Miller or any of the other fragile children on the roster. I like it.

:thumbsup: Reciprocation is crucial for a happy and healthy relationship.

:lol: That would be an epic train wreck that I would certainly tune in for.

Bio, How horrible. As a parent I cannot imagine anything worse than having to endure watching your child go through that. She is in my prayers. As for my trivial complaint, the forecasted high temps for Raleigh the next five days: 103, 105, 105, 102, 101. My trip to Buffalo next week can't come soon enough.

Say what you will about MAG, but I will always remember him fondly for sending the invading Sabre fan hordes into a frenzy with that OT goal in Carolina in April 2011.

Nice. I might try to make the Buffalo show in October as well, it's either there or Charlotte since Rush has neglected Raleigh yet again.

So then are you attending a Rush show this summer chz?

I don't think I've ever been without Sahlens in my freezer in the 10 years I've lived in the Raleigh area. Whenever I go home I bring some back, and family is required to deliver some when they visit. My whole neighborhood is hooked on them. I'm sure I have 5-10 lbs in my chest freezer right now, and I'll probably bring back more when I visit Buffalo next week. And Louie's was a lunch time staple back in the day when I worked at Children's hospital.

In one of the interviews I watched, Grigorenko specifically mentioned faceoffs as a part of his game that needs work.

Neither. They're ###### rock. Damn filter... let's see if this works. c. o. c. k. rock
