If we give up assets for Lecavalier's rotting carcass or Kesler's increasingly decaying body, I'll snap.
Gotta think Vinny could be had for table scraps. Don't think Kesler would come to Buffalo.

Well, the old saying is that if you play with fire, you get burned. Ever notice that the ones whining the loudest about a change in the rules are the ones that have been abusing it the worst?
Except everyone has been operating the last several years under the current plan. Changing it on the fly in one season undermines the work that good GM's have been performing. The NHL screws it up everytime.
I know, right? It's like when they change a bus route. You never hear the people who drive their Lexuses complaining about it. Everyone should just drive Lexuses and stop biching.
You said it better

Has Spezza ever really been considered the type of leader you want to influence a young team? Sure there's the Murray connection, but I'm not at all convinced his comment points to Spezza (especially when you consider the rumored asking price).
I think LeCavalier or Kesler fit closer to that bill

I dunno, Hodgson is 49th in points for centers this year on a terrible team. If the team gets better and he picks up 15 (to 60-ish) more points he's be in the low 20s. That seems like a solid #2 Center. That would put him at #6 or so second-line center standings.
That kind of points out what the good teams are doing: they have two centers in the top 20 in points. Hodgson could be a decent #2 (given that 15 more points is reasonable).
He played RW for a while at the end of last season at and world championship with some success. I wonder if they keep him there moving forward.

I am convinced this was forced through so McDavid has a better chance of going either to a Canadian market or a large media market. Whatever. If we finish last we can draft Eichel and BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF WHO EVER GETS MCDAVID.
I've never been much of a conspiracy theorist but the lottery change stinks like fresh doo doo. Either they are rigging this draft like the NBA did for Ewing to the Knicks or a couple of good ol' boys are thoroughly annoyed at how well the Sabres are working the system and decided to do what the NHL does. Make ###### up on the fly!!

Goodbye Myers. Seriously I have no problem with trading him. His hockey smarts will never match his actual skill and therefore when teams play with speed or creativity around him he will fail.
Remember the Myers for Getzlaf wishful thinking? Man...

What club is that, your list of man crushes? :lol:
;)
Every twit I'm friends with on the facespace was posting that yesterday. I just wanted to put a gun in my mouth.
Assuming facespace is code for another popular social media network, the wife and I deactivated our accounts and haven't looked back. I still have a twitter account, as you know, and find it more useful at gleaning good info from the interwebs.

Ann Coulter has really bad breath,… probably from throwing up every second meal.
Coulter's in my club, right between Lundqvist and Peca

Stafford, Stewart, Ehrhoff from buffalo is a possibility.
Kesler from Vancouver
Wut

I'd honestly have to say that I've heard Koo-ba more than Kew-ba, and would have thought that was the correct way to say it based on that. However, if he says Kew-ba, then that's what it is.
Show me the pronounciation!!

Bennett versus Reinhart... a song of Fire and Ice.
You know nothing Liger

If the movie trailer voiceover guy for the past 20 years says Cuba, then it's Cuba! That wasn't the point though. The point was that Schopp seems to go out of his way to pronounce things differently. Bulldog called him on it yesterday saying he hasn't ever heard anyone say Kooba until Schopp did just then.
It hits the ear wrong if it isn't followed by another slew of Spanish words.
Si donde esta las personas muy intellegente!!
-
Actually his name has been pronounced that way by others. Google it.. you might be amazed at the history on it. Although in videos I've seen of him pronouncing his own name he says Cuba. That said, he's named after the country and if you pronounce it in Spanish it is Kooba. So.. there you go.
Sadly, I don't think anyone one that show (minus producers) have any idea that Cuba is pronounced Kooba en Espanol.
-
Bad idea.
He looked good on the ice, just wonder how many games a year he's able to play.
-
That's true I just think Devine's comment about Reinhart being the smartest player in 10-15 years kinda hints at his thoughts. That said Murray likes Draisaitl's size. 57 hours and 10minutes and we should know.
Devine and Murray have both talk ad nauseum about Reinhart, Ekblad and Draisaitl. Given the fact that GM's and scouts rarely tip their hands in regards to player selection, I find this most interesting.

Seems to me CBJ unloaded their junk on defense to EDM :D
Sounds like a movie I recently watched

Pretty expensive 3rd line
To be fair, on this craphole team, their the 1st or second line. Any other team in the league, it's 3rd or 4th.

On the first part: Exactly.
On the second one: He's not getting $10 mill a year.
Right. My point was he's not signing with buffalo for $7 mill per

What's everyone's fascination with Steve Ott. He's a third line mucker who annoys people. He's not even good. He just doesn't completely blow like the rest of the Sabres did last season.
If you really want Stasney to come to Buffalo $50 mill ain't gettin it done. He can get that from anyone. 70-80 mill might make him think about it for .5 seconds.
-
He has a great sense of humor.
He has a nice personality
-
Ok. But when he starts lighting up the A next year you have to buy me a beer at an Amerks game.
Will you be 21 by then? :nana:
-
They went out and got Brian Campbell, Jose Theodore, Sean Bergenheim (who had just had a crazy postseason), Jovo Cop and more to tank?
Well they are a bunch of overpriced middling players.
-
Did anyone else catch Kris Baker's tweet about Demko having possible knee issues?
Hopefully he is taken 5 rounds before the Sabres even think about a goalie

My interpretation: We always have and always will ###### the Buffalo Sabres.
Oh yeah...###### the Buffalo Sabres!
