couldn't have taken too  much convincing. Bruins make the playoffs and Sabres finish last

I hate Taylor hall 

[rickshaw]

Taylor Hall is a major disappointment of a player IMO. I’m glad he’s gone. Lazar, I miss him.

I'd take Ritchie from that list. Tough in front of the net and would by far be the toughest player on the Sabres. 

Ritchie would be good. I'd also offer Cizikas a solid overpay on a 1-year deal with the promise that I'll retain the max 1/2 salary and deal him to a contender in the event we're not going to the playoffs. No NMC, but instead a handshake that I'll try to keep it to top teams. Just say I learned NMCs are bad from Hall last year. In the meantime, he gets to play middle six minutes instead of 4th line, and be looked up to by a young squad of centers.

Cap space opening up in Vegas.😜

[Andrew Amerk]

Tom Wilson had 33 points in 47 games. 

Ryan Reaves had 5 points in 37 games. 

Not much of an effective “response.”

I know people don't like that part of the game but, if Tom Wilson is in your division, you need Ryan Reaves. The league clearly isn't going to deal with him so some face punching is in order.

Or just getting some more cap space 😛

Thank you. The problem with Tom Wilson isn't that he's a dirtbag, it's that he's good at hockey in this version of the NHL.

Drury is way over his head  Just making terrible moves left and right

There's more to hockey than points.

[Randall Flagg]

Reaves used to play decent hockey along with his "enforcer" stuff not too long ago. not sure if he still does

what was his cap hit? 

[steveoath]

1.75M according to cap friendly.  1 year left on his deal. 

First Goodrow, now Reeves.  What decade is drury living in?

Drury reminds me of 2012 Regier.

As much as we hate to admit it Wilson is a good hockey player. He is one dirty SOB as well. I can't see Reeves having any effect whatsoever on how Wilson plays. Should be interesting though to see how it all plays out. Wilson seems to get away with crap by the NHL so I guess teams have to do something themselves.

What do you mean by worked out?  This guy is signed to play in Rochester.  He is not expected to play for the NHL team at all.  Why are you angry about this?

Because it doesn't help the Sabres one iota. I would love to see the Sabres get better but all I keep seeing is this.

 

Yes, Barney is a dick, but he's not wrong. 

[French Collection]

With these signings, Quinn and Peterka are thinking that if they have a good start in the AHL, one call up and they could stick.

If Reeves is on the ice for those games he most definitely will have an affect.  Him and Lucic are about the only 2 players in the league that Wilson actually respects.

true but Wilson plays far more then Reeves and Wilson plays on one of their top lines and gets more ice time. I cannot see Reeves out there as much so no I doubt he will have any effect on Wilson (except when he is on the ice at the same time of course...that's a no-brainer) but then if Reeves takes a bunch of penalties that only helps Washington so again Wilson will be helping his team.

Pay attention to Wilson when he plays NY.  He was a boy scout when they played Vegas.  Reeves ragdolled him once or twice and Toms heart shrunk 3 times that day.

many teams have tried the "let's get a goon" thing (including us in years past) but it does not seem to stop these guys like Wilson and Marchand from doing whatever they please. I have to admit though we could really use someone like these two (not a goon that is of no help but someone who can agitate and play as well).
