My memory is fuzzy on this one but: Wasn't there a Calgary Buffalo game in the LaFontaine years where Pat got injured against the Flames and the 2nd time they played there were an insane amount of fights and PIM's?

I always say this about anywhere you live: Its only the armpit of America if you don't use the right deorodent

Was thinking maybe there was a goalie out there that a team would like to move for salary cap relief that has say a year left that the Sabres can get for a very cheap price, but even looking at that, there isn't much if anything out there that KA can pursue.

Said this 1000 times and will say it 1001:
The tank for McDavid/Eichel was absolutely the best move.
The steps AFTER the tank is what gave the perception that the tank was wrong.

Why should I believe that?
Well they say in most cases the truth is in the middle so I suppose we will never 100 percent know.
All I know is it seems because of a fluky decent start for the Sabres some fans have lost sight of the true cancer. Ownership. They still are a #@#@ stain in my eyes and have MUCH to prove to change that fact.

Would Dahlin be best with Jokiharu?
-
Dominik Hasek demanded to be traded and wanted to orchestrate the trade to the team he wanted and wanted to ensure the Sabres did NOT get a big return to ensure that the team that Dom was going to was going to be a Cup contender.
Eichel wanted to have surgery that has never been performed on a NHL player EVER to ultimately HELP the team he still wanted to leave, to get Buffalo a better return so he can still help he team he wanted to leave.
Just marinate on this for a bit.

Nine NHL execs give Lebrun their takes on the trade.
No surprise it’s a mixed bag - from Buffalo screwed up the timing and got a 3rd line winger and a prospect with questions, to Buffalo did as well as could be expected, Tuch’s a good player and Krebs could be a top 6.
Sounds about right.
Krebs is the entire key to the deal. No way to sugarcoat it.

Dahlin's rookie year the forward crop was much better then now or in the previous two seasons.
Are offensive defenseman like Dahlin more co-dependent on having skilled forwards then the other way around? For example if you plop Dahlin on Edmonton now, how many points does Dahlin rack up this year?

If there is one point that should be taken from this trade its this in regards to today's NHL:
Cap space IS King.-

Greg Wyshynski is and forever will be a smug Sabres hater. I knew him from a Devils board way back before he became big time and he was always salty about Hasek winning Venizas over his boy Brodeur. Always take what he says about Buffalo with a grain of salt and more saltiness from him.

Vegas just makes the most sense for Eichel at this point. LTIR, they can make the playoffs without him and Vegas can 'pull a Kucherov' come playoff time with Jack.
Vegas does have some assets that can be intriguing to Buffalo. I am hoping for Tuch/Krebs and a 1st in 2022 as the real prizes of the deal.

John Rigas might be considered a disgraced owner, but I miss his ownership over the Pegula tire fire by a country mile.
RIP John.

The Sabres will not receive what they want until they allow interested teams to see Eichel's medical records.
But from the outside, it looks like the Sabres are closely guarding this information because there might be something in there that greatly decreases Jack's value.
Nothing will change until that information is made available.

At times I liked their show but they have to change the name of that show now.

The last day when everyone thought of me as an American because I was born here was 10 September 2001. Since then, I daily see people looking at me with suspicion and fear. My wife was called a terrorist sympathiser at work. I had death threats put in my mailbox.
I had season tickets to the Sabres and Bills. Midway through the first quarter of the next Bills game, a security guard came down to me and a friend. He told us to signal for an escort if we wanted to get up. I had been on TV during the pregame and several death threats had been phoned into the Bills' main line. He pointed me to at least 10 guards at the top of the stairs.
At the first Sabres game after 9/11/2001, there was a fight near my section. The next game, there was extra security. A guard met me at the entrance to the arena and escorted me to my seat. I found out that three men had intended to grab me and throw me out of the upper bowl into the lower bowl. The ushers and men in the area defended me as a real Sabres fan. Then the fight started. The three people who had threatened me were charged with attempted murder. The people who defended me were not charged. The were extra guards in sections 312-314 the entire season.
When Bush 43 ordered the invasion of Afghanistan, I found out an old friend was working in Kandahar with the civilian population. When I told me Dad, he told me that his father's family's farm village from before India's partition was near there. He had me tell my friend how anyone can escape through the mountains into Pakistan if they were captured. Sikh temples throughout Pakistan were ready to house Allied escapees.
I will be honest. When I heard a plane had hit the World Trade Center, I thought it had to be fake. When I saw the carnage, I knew it had to be Bin Laden -- three years before in a news magazine, there was an interview with him entitled, "This Guy Is Dangerous." I also knew that my life was going to get worse. My Dad and I talked about me learning Urdu and Arabic so that we could go to Waziristan to kill Bin Laden ourselves.
Interestingly, Buffalo was the top 300 city with the fewest anti-Muslim incidents for the few weeks after 9/11. In the years since then, Sikhs, Hindus, Muslims, Baha'is, and others moved to the area from other parts of the country. All of the congregations of our local houses of worship doubled or even tripled within a year. People in several local immigrant communities were told that Buffalo was a good place to live because of this.
Reading your story made me angry inside, and angry against anyone that would look at you that way and also that your wife had to deal with being called a terrorist sympathizer, and the death threats, just made me so sad and angry towards these monsters that you and your family dealt with that. I pray for you and your family that those issues have subsided.
Someone like myself who was born and raised in New Jersey, saw the Towers smoke with my own two eyes, and lost a close friend from our town (he was 31 and in the North Tower, Floor 92) and the pain and devastation that followed for me and to a much greater extent, his family and close friends and our town, at that time and now I could never ever dream is mistreating someone just because they 'look like one of the terrorists'. Never. In fact I in many ways ensured I treated people with more respect and care after 911, because everyone of every gender, race, religion needed that at that time, and still does.
20 years later I live in California, and I went to a 911 memorial on Saturday, and when I saw my friends picture, all those memories rush back, all the sadness, disbelief, some anger, confusion. One never gets over something like that, you just learn how to to deal with it better.

League sources report that Jack Eichel and Kevyn Adams have been seen together at the offices of a well known relationship coach. Out of an abundance of respect for the privacy of the individuals we will not publish the name of the world famous marriage counselor involved. The sense around golf courses favored by NHL players is that Eichel and the Sabres are on a path to reconciliation. Eichel's new agent Pat Brisson is said to be preparing to call a press conference where he lays the entire blame for the friction on Eichel's former agent Peter Fish.
This was on HFB.
Personally I would absolutely love this to be true
