Mustache of God

2019 pick becomes a first IF the Sharks win the cup as well...per botteril in his conference.

I dont know why i expected the team to do better. The Sabres got fleeced here.

the 2019 pick makes this completely underwhelming. This brings back nothing to the team for how many years? Woof.

Sorry, I'm reading the tweet on my phone, posting here from the computer....looks like it was deleted from the /r/hockey so it was probably fake. My bust.

I'm seeing a tweet saying "Lehner has made it known to management that he wants to be traded today" Gonna be real awkward when he finds out he's valueless.

Gionta has signed with the Bruins.

Coyotes shut out the ducks tonight. Only 1 point behi d the sabres.

You're at one of the natural wonders of the world. Put your phone away and enjoy it. I promise you're not missing anything Sabres related.

The defense was terrible on both of the goals but Lehner got burned so badly on both of them, they were misplayed just as bad on his part as the lack of effort from the defense. I decent goalie saves at least one of those. He's obviously not the only problem, certainly isn't the biggest problem on the team but I can't stand his attitude and can't wait until he's somewhere else.

He's trying to fill the void Moulson left.

That's a pretty harsh dig on pylons, man.

Because we want a 1st in return for Kane and they just used that up on Brassard. I suppose I should have said we're out on trading Kane to Pittsburgh.

Seems like Pittsburgh is out on Kane then.

What is going on in Ottowa? How do you go from the ECF to blowing up your entire team, especially after going out and acquiring Duchene?

I'd hope to bring in some actual talent and not just draft picks. Nobody has the patience to wait for another crop of draft picks to pan out. Murray really us with his asset management.

My predictions are that the returns we receive will be bordering on the whelmed/underwhelmed. Kane is going to be gone. I hope Gorges gets moved but I'm not sure considering his cap hit. I'm interested to see if any of these trades will be part of bigger packages. I can see Pouliot, a handful of prospects in Rochester, and draft picks being swapped around. There's nothing I want more than to see Lehner get traded but I don't know why any GM would want to trade for him.

If I had to define the "core", I'd limit to Eichel, ROR, and Okposo and he's only on this list because his contract is untradeable but unlike Bogo or Pommers he can still bring value if you build around him accordingly. Risto and Reino could be in there but they could just as easily be traded to be replaced with potential core pieces.

What makes you think the organization has the competency to finally get a jersey right? Their track history suggests otherwise.

Sounds like the future may "...require some suffering."

So how's our defense look now? Risto- Scandella Gorges - Nelson Baloo - Antipin Is it time to call up Guhle or probably Tennyson? also: woof.

Two periods is all I can stomach today.

At the start of the 2nd the Sabres are putting on a clinic of how to not pass....annnd then the Caps scored. Woof.

Listening to the pregame...Johnson in net, Baptiste sliding in for Nolan.

I've been out of the country for the past two weeks in Sri Lanka and getting back to find about Jack and his ankle has been rougher than the jet lag. Is it even worth watching now? Given the choice between Johnson and an Ullmark who played last night I'd imagine you'd have to go with Ullmark. We know what to expect with Johnson.

Jbot: need someone to blow an odd man rush? Well boy do i have a player for you.
