Jones and Holtby are trash. 

Oh just wait until you see what hits this ice for us this fall then.

Still hoping Ulmark stays.

Most of the markets that needed goal tending are done.  The only one's really left are Buffalo and Colorado, who ironically have starters on the market.  Technically Boston are still in the market.  But, this screams Rask re-sign once they get Krejci sorted out.

I'd sign there for nothing to get my name on the cup.  Like Bogo did last time.

GOODLY!!

San Jose is signing players the Sabres should have been in on. Bonino and Cogliano could have helped at C possibly?

Both are better than our current goalies of Tokarski and an empty net.

Still need players on the ice

They didn't break the bank and wouldn't take minutes from the core

Well since we do dedicated threads to every signing, I think you know that answer 😂

 

Keep refreshing! 👍🏼

There are still plenty of hodge podge players out there.  This is opening day of UFA.  All the big spenders go out and spend on their top guys, then the Sabres come in on their dumb deals.

Caligula?😄

Yep let a great player that you drafted and developed who missed hardly any games and led the team in scoring basically walk away then overpay for some crappy vets no one else wants. That'll make a lot of sense (and probably exactly what we'll do). Oh yeah sorry I forgot our big signing of Drake  (who use to be on Degrassi High way back in the 90s). I hear that my cousin's husband's son Mike Bunting signed with the Leafs for two years. being from Scarborough that must be quite the thrill for him! he did well with Arizona and also with Team Canada.

It’s going to be hard getting to the cap floor. Overpaying FAs to play here would be antithetical to what KA is trying to do. We don’t want people who don’t want to be here. I don’t envy his position at all.
