Oh agreed something has to give, the question is when... and how... is it Risto or some of the dead weight?

Erod is a swiss army knife and can play center or wing. I am betting Larrson or Girgs goes before he does... but right now a 2 year deal at 1.7 or 1.8 isn't bad.

I am more with you on this... I want to see what Kreuger can do with these guys including Risto. I am ok if he is still here if Botts cannot get enough value for him. I to am luke warm about trading him unless for a kings ransom. We will see since this is all speculation. Add a guy like Eakin and if the center position doesn't work out go searching around the trade deadline and draft another one next year... I am betting teams will need D next year mid season and the Sabres have some pieces. It will also give Kreuger a better idea in what he has in Pilut and Bogo as well as some of the young guys. Still 2C is such a question mark, I understand why folks feel the way they do because Risto is the only guy with enough value to get a 2C coming back.

I'd be ok with bringing in Kunitz for a look and check out fit. Guy has always been tough in front of the net and worked behind the net well. He would be better than the anchor that is Sobotka. Not sure how much, but worth a look.

yeh i was 5 forgot giant leap whatever hadnt had my coffee yet

Depends on how many kids resulted and it could have been more impactful to PA

Remember it well..."One small step for man, one big step for mankind". I was 5, one brother, 3, one 5 months... Mom and Dad had us watching every night Walter Kronkite and Roger Mudd and the Lunar module its separation from the command module... You need to be severely beaten! ?

True, but it should be white washed a la 1984. It is single most form of Sabre obomination.

Dahlin, Casey and TT is my hope

Whoa! Does that help or hurt potential trade with Winny?

I was diagnosed out as many know with a bladder cancer that I had surgery to remove. Found out early this week is was stage 3 not 1 very scary. Had a CT scan yesterday and got the results.. no evidence of any spread of the cancer!!!! Still will probably have chemo and other treatment, but this is huge!!!

Just ghosts offering a cup of joe...

Oh no not the slug ?

Wheat dude, Kansas, midwest Canada ie Saskatchewan is full of it... wheat that is. Parts of Colorado, Wyoming too

just saw this

Interesting article in Athletic by Yeardon trying to predict if Olloffsson exceeds 40 points this coming season... Answer who knows? But few have done it... Tyler Johnson one of the few... Based on Victor Olofsson’s AHL numbers, can we get a better sense of what he’ll do in a full season in Buffalo? https://theathletic.com/1080080/2019/07/17/based-on-victor-olofssons-ahl-numbers-can-we-get-a-better-sense-of-what-hell-do-in-a-full-season-in-buffalo/

True, but post ROR trade... Risto if traded for anything other than 2C will be considered a failure... It will show he learned something from that mess if he is successful. If he is then he will be able to move on... if not that albatross will follow him... two Rs = F

who knew?

other McCabe hits:

For those who dont remember:

Murray as a talent evaluator seemed pretty decent. His sense a value of that talent cough cough Lehner actually more stability as a person was off ROR COR cough...reflective of himself... how much did he have to do with Karlsson -Hoffman debacle.. rolled into 1 summed him up as a big pile of doodoo. JBots other than what happened with the return on the ROR trade seems to be finding good character guys with skill and determination... hungry guys... promoting guys who are hungry and removing slackers. His first coaching choice was a mistake as well... he seems to have learned from both but again how he handles Risto.... one way or the other will define his legacy here. We as sabrespacers wait with baited breath ?

Yeh I am the old man yelling at clouds:

I think a few guys do including Ovi

cool will collect tonight and take out sim cards
