How much you want to bet we keep Byram, and they pick up since D level forwards in FA!! KA holds a press conference we won the off-season as our defense got better and the kids will make up the goals we lost in the JJP trade

I didn’t grab the tampering issue out of the blue. It was mentioned by the former French and loquacious Sabre goalie, Marty B, on his WGR hockey show.

On the one hand, I agree with a lot of what is being said. On the other hand, we are talking about the sixth or seventh defenseman on a team that hasn’t made the playoffs in fourteen years. I’m pretty sure whether the streak continues will have little to nothing to do with this decision.

NFL is unique. In the NHL, NBA and MLB you get haves and have-nots.

Yep. No benefit of the doubt for this 14 year clown show.

It’s a challenge to give this rickety organization the benefit of the doubt on anything.

Fair

Yeah, not sure if they're following the Bryson model of not handing out a QO to a guy or if they're following the Kahun model of not handing out a QO to a guy. Guess we'll know which it is pretty soon.

The contract itself may be less in total dollars (or the same), but you know what the qualifying offer has that this hypothetical contract doesn’t? The QO is probably two way.

With JBD now not qualified I think it makes lots more sense and Perbix is a big mean SOB, fits there new “style”

Seems reasonable - like the Jeannot idea a lot if we can get rid of another 3rd/4th liner. Pernic doesn’t make as much sense as the last thing we need now is another RHD

We are talking Pegula Sabres here and you are applying the logic of the other 31 teams. Could mean Lindy's next move is upstairs to the VP level, not out. It also looks more like a Jarmo draft, so there is also that to consider.

Less than what? Jbd is basically at league minimum.

I’m pretty sure Bo Byram has a Stanley Cup ring already. But more misleading stats.

Veteran. Cheap. Has looked good AT TIMES. Pretty sure this describes every goalie brought in by the Sabres from the outside post-Lehner. (Not including Levi.)

And it was a bad UFA pool to begin with. The list I looked at had Oloffson at 22 and skinner at 30. That’s a sad list

I have shifted my predictions for July 1, Byram resigned short term Bryan Rust aquired for picks and prospect Nick Perbix signed as depth dman small chance Lafferty goes and Tanner Jeannot signs

I feel like Lindy isn't a year away from retirement. I think if the team keeps improving and/or gets competitive, he'll be here long term. Speaking of which, when's that goalie signing going to happen?!!!

There are several teams that are destination cities and have huge advantages over others. Parity via free agency is no longer a lock. The Sabres are at the bottom and likely never to rise to contender status again. Some of it is our own doing. But not everything is.

So your bottom pair is Samuelsson Timmons and your 7th is Bryson? That'll make them one injury away from total collapse on D.

You don't think Florida will win the division this year? Toronto should regular season slip back without Marner. Might be a better playoff team in the end but regular season his loss will mean points int he standings.

Free agents disappearing by the minute. There's not going to be much left except a Boeser/Ehlers bidding war tomorrow. I doubt the Sabres do much of anything.

I love Stamkos. I owned a Bolts Stammer jersey. He’s washed. Gonna be a no from me dawg.

I would hold on to Byram and you don’t want Samsonov he’s flipping terrible. Orlov’s best hockey is behind him so that’s a no go. But Granlund on the other hand is worth taking a shot on as well as Pius Suter

I think Dahlin is a tough beaaatch and would hold up fine. And, more importantly, if we were playing FLA in the playoffs wouldn’t it have to be in the conference finals? Crazy friggin talk man……dream big
