Not to bring facts into the discussion, but...

 

1 - Scheistel only played 16 games in Texas. He spent the majority of the season with Rochester.

 

2 - He is only 23 years old.

 

3 - Before running into injury problems, his path to the NHL was on the fast track.

 

4 - It is re-signed. Not resigned. Sorry just a pet peeve of mine. ;)

More D-men...Angry Eleven is gonna cry.

 

Nah. This doesn't prevent them from doing what they should be doing, and it may even help.

Is this before or after getting new deals in place for the remaining RFAs?

 

50 after Kaleta and Ennis. With Biega, Turnbull, Whitmore and Stuart still up in the air.

 

Oreo and Gus included.

Biega's the only RFA of that group. The rest are as good as gone.

What's the point of this move?

 

Hang on to a prospect that a year ago looked like he had NHL potential?

Contracts only become an issue if Girgs and Grigs make it, right?

And we all know there is a Dman trade coming.

To sooth the nightmares of 2005?

 

I'm fine with the move, since almost by default there has to be a trade coming, even if it's just a minor depth trade or two. There will be some kind of player movement :thumbsup:

Trade piece or is Darcy hoarding? Or the AHL vet the Amerks have been after? Lol. Oh dear.

 

I'm counting 10 dmen signed and that includes McNabb, Pardy, Sulzer, Brennan, Pysyk and Leduc. Two of those make the club to have the Sabres squad at 7 dmen.

 

So you've got 8 dmen for Amerks. That's not a WHOLE lot.
