I think swapping out Olofsson and Benson will be the last bit of tinkering with the lines.

Samuelsson-Dahlin.... gettin' the band back together.

I look at it this way: You're right about the team getting friendly deals going forward, but give Kevyn credit for signing three key pieces long term before the team turned the corner and those assets realized their potential. It was a bit of a gamble but so far it looks like it's working in the team's favor. To expect the team to be able to get team-friendly deals indefinitely was never realistic.

Minor. It's a different situation. I expect a bridge deal. Yeah, I'm sure GMKA would like that. If I'm Power's agent I'd be looking for a bridge to get the bigger payday down the road.

Thanks, Kevyn. This is just what I wanted for my birthday.

This contract is why Kevyn sought to bring in Tage and Cozens on value deals. This the rainy day those savings were for. 8 x 8

Yeah, that's what I was thinking too.

But it's not awful either. I think Dahlin's agent was savvy to wait until there was more clarity on where the cap was going. I'm sure Kevyn wanted a better deal but it is what it is. Now let's see if he can get Power locked up or if that will be a bridge deal.

A bit higher than we hoped but that's what dragging on through the summer got him methinks.

If there are significant injuries they will bring up Johnson. They want him playing, not riding the pine.

I am on twitter mostly to follow Buffalo sports writers/bloggers. But when the Bills lose I absolutely cannot go to twitter for a few days... it's unreadable.

That's not my point. The point is, no other team is going to stick him on an NHL roster now because he might be a serviceable goalie in the future.

But if he gets claimed he will be on some team's NHL roster; otherwise he gets returned to the Sabres org.

Maybe KA is holding onto three due to the TB situation. Not that they will trade a goalie to TB per se, but whoever does may be looking for a depth/AHL goalie and maybe KA flips UPL for a 3rd round pick or some such.

He has certain.... talents.

Oh just start calling him Jar Jar Bryson and be done with it. That way we can still hate him.

The Dominguator is already past his Best By date.

Jax just has their number. It's bizarre.

Yeah I've got some work to do before the opener.

Wow guys 😕
