X. Benedict Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 Any chance the Sabres can go after him? None. But he would be nice. If they are going to spend that money on Erat, there is no chance they are letting him walk as an RFA.

He or Bowmeister would seem to fit the toughness needed on the blue line. Hopefully this weekend provides some fireworks!!!
BetweenThePipes00 Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 They are probably going to deal a defenseman of some sort ... maybe not him or Suter but someone, maybe Hamhuis or Koistinen ... they are pretty loaded there and they have to spend some money on Ellis (or someone) in goal too ...
Goodfella25 Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 I really don't know how to word this without sounding like a complete jerk, and I know this is a fun time of year with all the player movement (for the other 29 teams anyway), but honestly do we need a new thread for every single player out there? Mods--can we just have one thread called "Sabres Offseason Wishlist/Rumors"? So far we've had individual threads about: Weber, Holik, Jokinen, Esche, Tucker, Norstrom, Oilers RFAs, Jagr, and even Wade freakin' Dubielewicz for crying out loud!

Not sure what the problem is...is there a space issue? Not neat and tidy enough? who cares?

So you would rather have one giant thread that is harder to follow vs having one for each player an only one? I agree they can get out of hand, but this is not like we have 20 threads on Shea Weber
wonderbread Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 you are getting cranky this offseason Goodfella. no? Buck up it the shat hasn't really hit the fan yet.
Hawerchuk Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 Weber, Holik, Jokinen, Esche, Tucker, Norstrom, Oilers RFAs, Jagr, and even Wade freakin' Dubielewicz for crying out loud! No Bobby Holik please!! Sabres do not need this overpaid player. Waaaaaaaaaaaaaay past his prime, if he even had one. NO THANKS!! :death:
Goodfella25 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Posted June 20, 2008 Told you I'd sound like a jerk :thumbsup: It's not a huge deal, I'm just saying it's kind of odd that every day I come to this site there's a new thread titled with a random player's name, with the subject being "wouldn't you like this guy on the Sabres?" Of course I would. I'd literally replace our entire defense right now if I could. But you know that's not how this team functions. If we had some free-wheeling management then I'd say maybe these threads would carry more weight, but honestly I'm not expecting much of anything other than one of two forwards dumped for a mediocre D-man or more draft picks.

It's nice to have people behind a common cause with different points of view....the world would be pretty boring without it. Like SoCal said, I wouldn't likely sift through 1 big thread with all the different names. The titles of each thread are what prompt me to read. Shallow, maybe, but this is entertainment, not a job. I've actually shared some common view points with you goodfella, so no, I don't think your a jerk. :thumbsup:
