LGR4GM Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 lol Justin Bailey has a Pominville jersey... nice Quote
sabills Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 So in effect we traded: Veteran Pominville + Sekera + Grigorenko + Ennis + Foligno ==> More Veteraner Pominville + Scandella + O'Reilly + Larsson + Karabacek + (the rights to Vesey lost) Also... 4/12/2013's forward lineup for your enlightenment... Our centers are better now. Ott - Hodgson - Pominville Foligno - Ennis - Stafford Adam - Porter - Flynn Gerbe - Hecht - Kaleta woof Quote

darksabre Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 woof This is the appropriate response. Quote
I-90 W Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 With Antipin, Beaulieu and Scandella our defense rebuild is well underway. Bury Gorges in Rochester and we have a 50% turnover on our blue line already. Very happy today. Pommers coming back is icing on the cake, and we haven't even hit free agency yet! Quote
IKnowPhysics Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 My god, I had already forgotten about Adam, Porter, and Flynn. After putting that on the ice, I can see why the NHL changed the draft odds. I mean, the NHL us, but I get it. Quote
josie Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 Wow, can I use this for my Avatar? Shore! Hang on Liger of the shadows. I'm working on it. Quote
Weave Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 Heh. And I was kidding about trading for Pommer yesterday. Quote
josie Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 Shore! Hang on Liger of the shadows. I'm working on it. How's that for like 5 minutes Ok, I'm out Quote
JohnnyK Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 Solid trade..I love me some Foligno but he is pricing himself out of his role and this fills the Sabres' needs big time! Quote
Claude Balls Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 Note to self, DO NOT buy an Eichel jersey. If I do it basically guarantees he will be traded or sign somewhere else in the near future. In other news, I have a rarely worn Foligno home blue jersey for sale. Quote
Scottysabres Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 I'm starting to think another deal is in the works trade wise. I don't know, but LH shot LW'ers seem to be needed, no? Quote
DarthEbriate Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 I'm starting to think another deal is in the works trade wise. I don't know, but LH shot LW'ers seem to be needed, no? Or that second-tier level of UFA (later next week after the Canada Day madness). Or JBot fills in the gaps with up-and-coming ELC folks (Bailey, Baptiste, Fasching -- all RWs. Do any of them shoot left?). Quote

North Buffalo Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 Wish she would make me an awesome Liger cat avatar involving a spacesuit and the american flag but with a Sabres logo instead the stars and stripes pay hrr. How's that for like 5 minutes Ok, I'm out Again Liger you owe her... Quote
Stoner Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) Housley's return couldn't bring me back for a summer post, but Pommers' return did move me. I've been smiling ever since I heard the news. The "Welcome Back" theme song was stuck in my head before WGR played it leading into Schopp. Followed by Rick's epic call of Jason's goal in Ottawa. Then Mike's very excellent interview with the guy and stories of Jason's boy pumping his fist at the idea of dad playing with THE Jack Eichel.OK, now they're just messing with my emotions.There are valid reasons for any skeptic or cynic to dislike the move, but with the calendar just having turned to summer, on the Friday afternoon before the Fourth, if you can't momentarily suspend the snark and be happy with a move like this, like Bulldog often says, "what are we doing here?"(It's also arguably a nice hockey trade without factoring in nostalgia and good feelings.)Mainly, I like the move because my mum had a crush on Pominville in her late 70s and early 80s and used to kiss his mini puck to try and conjure up some serious juju. And it usually worked. Except when it didn't.Honestly, what's not to crush on? Welcome back to where we need ya, Jason. Someone get out to the 33 inbound. Edited June 30, 2017 by PASabreFan Quote
Samson's Flow Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 Reminder to all - Pominville only has one "m". Seeing a lot of Pomminstein Quote
MDFan Posted June 30, 2017 Report Posted June 30, 2017 (edited) Love this trade. When Eichel talked about players talking like they want to win but not putting in the efforts to do so, Ennis is the first player I think of. Ennis for Pomminstein, even with the age difference, was a trade I would have made all day long. The Sabres are much better with that exchange. I like Foligno and I think he has really come along over the past two years, but we needed defense, we got it. Again, good exchange. I am hoping Fascing can develop into that role. Edit: interesting that the site auto corrected to Pommenstein. Edited June 30, 2017 by MDFan Quote
