Let's wait and see what the roster looks like on October 12. Bitching about it now is an exercise in futility. But in a nice, positive, affirming way, of course.

No, actually *you're* missing the point. You keep saying want the Sabres to make trades trades TRADES! But when you look at the players that are actually moving, they aren't anything the Sabres should in on. Kevyn's smarter than that (and smarter than you). He's not going to make a trade for the sake of making the trade, and he's not going to overpay, and he's not going to sign a contract he later regrets. Before you complain too mightily, you should sit back and see what the opening night roster looks like before you judge.

Sounds like he lost his love of the game in Philly Next year's Conn Smythe winner? 😉

14,000 seat Dickies Arena in Fort Worth had their ribbon cutting 18 months after ground breaking. Dickies had strong financial, civic and governmental backing. I would think 18 months probably represents a best case scenario.

What do you think of the season Tage just had after the career year he had the season before?

Live look-in of @Buffalonill

I would think Greenway-Mitts-Rousek would be a tough line to play against. I hope to see that at some point.

It will be viewed as a brilliant signing when he scores 25 goals this year.

Isn't that what you've wanted all along?

....who knows nothing of the rigors of the NHL.

Donny will figure it out He isn't our best player but he may be the most versatile.

Another reason Casey Isa stud.

How weak is the cell signal at my in-laws' in the hills east of Albany? Well...

Only 16,000 seats though? An arena that size doesn't need NHL or NBA to be profitable.

A half page of Peca and two and a half pages of off topic Sabres asst coaching complaints. Nice, Sabrespace. Nice.

The trade rumor moving Eich to Calgary, reported by Weekes, likely fed to him by his buddy Kevyn, which prodded the VGK to pull the trigger before Eich got away.

If it's Sabres/Amerks branded, it might prove popular.

Rivet was always an anti-vaxxer. I know there are some on this forum that don't mind that, but I do. And having Roenick on regularly was another I stopped listening.

You mean asst coaches

Sam was my favorite Sabre of that era, I have is jersey. But Jack... when we had him I thought.... he's an ass but he's *our* ass! Now he's just an ass.

Moscow Mule sounds like an apt description for Novikov. (Sounds like a style similar to Muel.)

He's a tool. And not in a good way. I never felt any empathy for him the way I feel for Tage, Mitts, Cozens, Tuch, Skinner, Okie,... I know charisma doesn't win championships but I just never liked Eich.

As long as he and Josh are on the same page by the first game of regular season I don't give a damn.

Agree on Power, but Power may prefer a bridge deal to get a better deal in a few years. I think 3 years is the minimum I want to see with Mitts, with probalby 5 as the max. If they can get him at a good AAV he will be much more valuable to the team in three years if he still has two left on his contract, and I mean that whether they want to keep him or trade him at that point. (I would hope the current Amerks stars are contributing at a level similar to Mitts in probably 2-3 years.)
