If you have a playstation 4 or you can pick one up cheap they make great set top boxes for streaming pretty much any service But I understand your pain completely.

Then you got to bring in both IMO and figure that out. We need as many quality G's stacked up as possible Haven't heard the Levi news about going pro this year, I only hoped he would.

Nope, just the right amount to ask.. A good old fashion double digit shellacking

I think they bring The Swedish Bull aka Erik Portillo in to Rochester 1st given the time line. Portillo could potentially go back into the draft if we keep him in College another year if I understand that correctly. Levi however I believe has the extra year or 2 to burn before we have to face that. So from that point of view Portillo 1st. The question I have would it make sense to bring both Portillo and Levi in.. would there be enough games to satisfy their development if they split the duty.

Glad to hear that.... I was taken back a bit by that.

SO you want to see someone produce a hit that lays Jack flat on the ice possibly paralyzed... and why would you want this? I worry about the guy honestly. Which is why I was against the procedure he wanted if he was going to continue his career. One hit like that and it could be very very ugly. I am also concerned for the player who does hit Jack legally but has to witness and deal with this possibility... But in no way would I wish this on anyone

What are the odds ? 1:1

we traded Eichel, Ristolainen and Reinhart, and let Ullmark leave via FA If that is not a reset then nothing is. Not a chance in hell we would be doing that next season. M.O. or not... You got 3 to 4 years minimum before that's even a thought, and if that is where we end up Buffalo will chase the Pegulas out of town for realsies

That is an old video from earlier this year (2nd video) .... But what stood out to me is how well Devon tracks the puck. He makes it look effortless I had to post the tweet cause I couldn't find a copy on youtube.

Heading into the new year above .500 and then getting stronger down the stretch. TO be honest I already bought in when I signed my lifelong Sabres fan card 50 years ago

Phil's style just did resonate with this team IMO.. The team gave up on him and that's usually a tell tale sign of a coach.

Its all about consistency now, but they are a capable team.

that's a tough pill to swallow...…. Very sad an unfortunate...

That's the hope... Less minutes and paired with someone who has stronger defensive game with a coach who's scheme has a place for his strengths... With our defensive injuries were going to be finding out IMO, as I don't see us being in a hurry to trade him.

good points.. Just trying to look at it with rose colored glasses on I guess

Risto could be reborn under Krueger. A coach who may know how to use him properly and stabilize his metrics.

I agree I think that's the plan. Also gave us some chips to play with to negotiate a deal when it reveals itself

We've spent the last few years building up our pipeline, and its still a work in progress. We are not trading Risto unless we get a very very good return. We are not trading our prospect pool or draft picks for fill ins unless that deal heavily favors the Sabres IMO. I believe we need to let the pipeline compete for the 2C position and the rest of the roster wait for the right deal to present itself. This team is ripe for improvement but no where near ripe for a deep playoff run, therefore why force a deal to make ourselves half relevant this year. I too believe coaching can bring the biggest difference from last year to this year. Is Ralph that guy, stay tuned.

Minors then.. Didn't realize he wasn't eligible.

Need to see them in action this preseason Mitts should be stronger and obviously more experienced this year. Cozens IMO starts in Rochester and Gets his 9 games before the season ends.. Even if he shines in camp he is most likely not ready for an 82 game schedule

LOL got my GMs mixed up.. Bouncing between multiple topics on multiple boards does that

big difference. O'Reilly had a $7.5 million roster bonus do that would of greatly affected dead cap space if we traded him afterwards. yes it was not fruitful, but Beane was determined to remake this team and it didn't include O'Reilly and a $7.5 mil roster bonus.... I do not see an O'reilly situation for 2 reasons. Risto has a manageable cap hit, and is worth what he is being paid. So we can wait this one out. The 2nd We will run Beane out of town if he trades another higher end asset for peanuts. He can't afford to short arm this one

$5 million you can easily invest have it earn income while you draw down on that and have it last 50 years easily... Heck My lifetime earnings to date $3 million and I'm over 50.. My wife retires next year and I will retire at 58 (7 years) with less than a million and we will live well the rest of my days from there on with little issues Now it does come down to the your comfort level of quality of life, but I will be down sizing https://retireby40.org/can-retire-5-million-dollars/ https://retireby40.org/early-retirement-withdrawal-strategy/
