I think we're in a good position long-term with our #1 goalie situation. Lehner looked very good last year probably playing at about 80%. Granted, it was a limited # of games. If he turns out very good then great; if not Peterson is probably the answer. Our real problem is our back up goalie.

Kane BUT he would never have been traded for a top LHD - good forwards aren't enough to get top dmen.

Not just us, most of the other 6 teams presented better options to him than nyc: Tavares, toews/Kane, Matthews, home town of Boston, even NJ has some good young talent

Do we really want hudler at all? 14 goals last year and now he's 32 years old. Great year the year before but.....

He had a much better year his junior year and would have won the hobey if not for a certain jack. In his senior year, he lost a couple of good wingmen and played with younger kids, a las a lower point total. Solid prospect - upside is another Okposo, downside a stafford

When I said Buffalo leads it's stars alone, I meant; 1. They can go.out to dinner and for the most part be left Alone 2. Media scrutiny is minimal compared to most cities. Bucky and sully are soft compared to most. Now if you're going to be N idiot like the Kane's, the police won't leave you alone but that's obvious, no?

Sabres will push hard to sign Peterson after his junior season (2017), especially if lehner doesn't have a very good year. Peterson is a top goalie prospect and translates well to the NHL. I think he has nearly as good of a chance of being our long term solution as lehner does

Cal do what to us?

Vesey's better than either Hayes brother. Was just tweeted that fish and vesey will talk tonight, work through the night and have a final decision tomorrow. Pit signed the ND college UFAs. Pretty decent prospect - prob means they're out of Vesey

I watched about 10 Harvard games and every foxboro game and the USA tournament he played in. He's very good, think Okposo good, seriously. He can score 25+ playing with Jack

What Darryl says is correct, Buffalo cuz: Jack Young team Fish is agents to vesey And eichel Sabres hands off no pressure approach was perfect Top 6 minutes and pp minutes most likely with buffalo Sabres drafted Fitzgerald, his best friend Sabres salary cap situation translates well to 2nd contract Buffalo 50 min flight from boston Buffalo leaves it's stars alone - lower pressure All 8 places have their good points. Vesey is a smart guy, no other place can match all these Buffalo positives

Better than shultz. Shultz has really been bad too

Why not NJ? Ever been to Newark??

Ughh.. John Haskel wrote that blog last Saturday. Be was look purely guessing as this was 2 days before Chi even met him. So not only did you post something from Hockeybuzz, you posted a very stale blog from Hockeybuzz Vesey will be signing with BUF this weekend, maybe stretches into Monday but I doubt it

Asst gm of nj Fitzgerald is close friends to vesey BUT gmtm drafted his son in the 3rd round this year. BC dman and close friend of Vesey - schrewd gmtm

I'm in NYC everyday. Central park is great as are the thousands of places to eat. People suck, as they're the rudest, most self-indulged group you'll ever meet. Know what you call a person who holds a door for you in nyc and isn't paid to do so (doorman)? A tourist..

Nyc condo: Me as I work there and hate the place. So he'd be buying a condo in nyc with plans of signing somewhere other than nyc. I don't get it? For the offseason instead of going back to Boston?

Nyc condo is garbage. Common sense - he wouldn't go through all these team interviews if his mind was already made up

Don't underestimate captain jack plus we purposely drafted his best friend in rd 3 this year

Correct - this circus is all media/fan driven, Vesey and fish's stance has never changed

Buffalo holds his exclusive rights THROUGH Monday the 15th not until the 15th

Who wasn't that good his first 2 years, was really good in year 3 and regressed a bit in year 4. Putting things in perspective, jack is a golden god but he scored 70 some points as as freshman, around 1.5 points per game, vesey had 46 or so last year as a senior, a point per game. In saying that, he's still really good and I want him in Buf

No hype with Vesey - watch any of his Harvard games or even foxboro games then tell me he's all hype

After discussing things over with his family and agent, he's narrowed his list down to 6 teams: guessing BUF, BOS, CHI, NYR, NJ, TOR. Last night was Vesey's last game with Jack before 8/15

Wkbw report is garbage. Leveraging off the cnnse report which is also garbage. The quote from his agent that Buffalo is still very much in consideration is much more relevant. He's getting more attention than previous college UFAs cuz it's Buffalo and hes a better player
