Because he's almost 31 years old, on the downside of his career, will be significantly diminished as a player by the time we are good and will want him to be, but he will still be taking up 5 mil of cap space, and he doesn't do anything in particular that I want the young guys to emulate. I would rather pay him 3 years, 21 mil than 5x5.

you beat me to it by seconds. I hate the term. Guy is on the downside of his career now - must be one hell of a locker room guy to want to tie themselves to a depreciating asset this long, especially since he isn't tough at all and plays mostly a perimeter game we don't want our guys to emulate.

5x5? I don't care about the money now, but I don't want to be using 5 mil of cap space on this guy in 5 years. I give this deal two thumbs down.

please tell me you are kidding :sick: 5x5? Is that a joke?

So over it. F him. He didn't want to play for us? Enjoy the media in Vancouver, asswipe. TM still thinks he should have got a first for him at the deadline, so he is going to try it again this year.

I want Ott back.

yeah, you're right - he'll never miss that extra 25 million.

Bet Miller wishes he had accepted Buffalo's offer. Declining it will cost him millions. Good luck getting anywhere near 6 per after these 3 years are done. Buffalo would have given him 7x7, maybe 8x6.8. He gave a lot of money away.

he has already played for the leafs

really? 60 a bottle would make me think twice. GCP liquor is the place. Woodford is usually in the same 45 price range. My favorite bartender seems to want to put his employer out of business. He pours about 3 fingers of either for 8 bucks. Makers isn't cheap. I just don't like it. Plenty of good bargain bottles. A couple have been named. Look for 4 roses small batch. Good stuff in the 30 range. Evan Williams makes a nice single barrel in that range. 4 roses single barrel is around 40 and is damn good as well.

I can usually find blanton's for roughly 45 a bottle. Life is too short to drink cheap beer or booze or cigars. Enjoying a couple fingers of it now with a Perdomo Exhibicion. Makes for a nice evening. try the Oban 16. You'll like it. Caol isla is good but very light and delicate. No water needed. stay away from the wood ford double oak. No where near as nice as the reserve.

Word. It's gasoline. I won't even use it for Julips. Drown it with ice and ginger ale if you must, but it still gives me heartburn.

Woodford reserve and blanton's are my go to bourbons. Can drink them neat all night long, and one or both are usually available in most bars. If not, rethink where you are spending your time.

He looked better last year than he has in years past. I can't tell if it's because he was trying harder, or if the players around him just sucked so bad that it made him look better. Either way, trade his dead ass for the first 5th round pick someone throws our way. He is a perfect example of what you DONT want around your developing players of the future.

My 14 year old can do 15. WTF?

A cool evening, 4 fingers of Col. Taylor single barrel, and a La Gloria Cubana. F'n Fantastic!

5 of the 20 drafted players invited to world junior camp are Buffalo owned. And Sabres will very likely be drafting at least 1 or 2 more of the draft eligible kids this year. Light at the end of the tunnel.

You have a need to get to Lackawanna in a hurry?

Right back at you.

I envy your patience in attempting to argue factually and logically with folks who ignore both facts and logic. I'm going to go buy a couple more boxes of ammo now.

quick or doughty for sure

Bill Polian was just spotted at the airport

Pegula to make a bid for the Bills. Hallelujah. Build a stadium downtown, tear down the skyway, and let Buffalo be reborn.

Yup. Headed to BC out of the NTDP and USA u18 team. I stick my head in here once in a while but that's about all I can handle.

Look for Alex Tuch to fall, and the sabres either trade up late in first to grab him or take him with their first pick in the second. Prototypical TM pick - big kid, a banger, quality kid through and through. Doesn't have elite offensive talent but he is good enough for a second/third line checking role. He's Foligno with actual offensive talent. To boot, He's a Syracuse kid.
