There's always a workaround. Say, for example, a relocation fee. It might be less than an expansion fee but you don't have to hold a draft. Salt Lake is just begging for a team and you have Arizona up in the air. Atlanta is champing at the bit and, let's face it, attendance in Buffalo isn't so good. One western team, one eastern.

My team, my suffering.

That's my worry.

Yes. That's it. You solved the mystery.

How long till Feb 6?

Stalkin' ain't easy.

Levi can get games in the AHL on loan. He doesn't have to be sent down. Just as long as he's on the Amerks roster on trade deadline day.

The way the AHL schedule lays out, few midweek games, lots on weekends, that Levi can play both. Comrie is now exempt from waivers because he cleared once before. There's no need to make Levi a permanent Amerk.

Why?

Kind of wondering what to do with myself with the Sabres shut down for a week plus. Don't care about the All Star game at all. At least the AHL keeps going. What happens if Kulich gets called up? Does he miss the AHL All-star game on Feb 6?

I'm going to guess yes. Much worse.

I need to convert this to a season long pace. Sabres are .490 right now, which gets them to just 80 points. .585 gets 96 .573 gets 94 .561 gets 92 .549 gets 90.

.727 pt% gets you to 96. .700 gets you 94, .667. = 92, and .636 gets 90. Anything less is futile.

At the All Star break the Sabres have 48 points and are 7 points out of a wild card. They just went 7-4 in January. (.636) If they maintain that point% over the remaining 33 games, they get 90 points. Not enough but within striking distance.

Let's hope it's just a sprain.

The Sabres aren't starting slow, they are making games more interesting.

It should be 4-4, then 5-4 when the penalty ends

What is a trip anyway?

New game, boys.

Tuch willed that goal.

Nice save, Luuuuuuk

Why Bryson? Why not Stillman? Or even Metsa?

Awesome tip, Ryan.

Do not go into the all star break with an L. Just don't.
