Radar Posted September 19, 2019 Report Posted September 19, 2019 If true that hurts and you would think would put to rest any Risto trade. Quote

#freejame Posted September 19, 2019 Report Posted September 19, 2019 This would likely mean six weeks recovery, correct? Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted September 19, 2019 Report Posted September 19, 2019 Yikes. If so, it’s a good thing Jbot loaded up on RHD. Great opportunity for Jokiharju, Miller, Borgen and Risto to prove or improve their position with the Sabres. Next man up! Also sometimes the best trade is the one you don’t make. Quote
LGR4GM Posted September 19, 2019 Report Posted September 19, 2019 Guess that Jokiharju and Dahlin pairing stands a better chance now. 2 Quote
WildCard Posted September 19, 2019 Report Posted September 19, 2019 Could be worse? If he's going to miss some time get it all outta the way with; don't rush it back just come back 100% Quote
shrader Posted September 19, 2019 Report Posted September 19, 2019 Wasn't Cozens a hand injury too? It's time to fire the entire training staff because they clearly have no idea how to strengthen hands. 1 1 Quote

I'm not sure putting a 19 and 20 year old out there together in a non-bottom pairing setting is the best idea. That's really too bad about Montour as I really liked the look of he and Dahlin together late last season. Quote

It wouldn't hurt one of the kids to get a few NHL games under their belt. 1 Quote

Montour will likely be back by (American) Thanksgiving. If there's a deal out there to improve the forwards I hope this injury doesn't sway Botts. We need to upgrade the forward group. Guys like Borgen are ready to show up and I have faith will tie us over until he returns. Quote

Maybe 5 weeks. We still have 2 weeks before the first game even happens. If Botterill thought like that he needs to gooooooo That said, if he was inclined to wait a couple weeks into the start of the season anyway to get teams to be more desperate a la Duchene trade, this probably makes that more likely Quote

If not, I'm fine with the bolded approach. I'm not trading Risto for a third line forward unless there is already something worked out with another team to utilize the $6 mil cap space for something else. Quote
