A stark reminder that hockey is just a game — never take your loved ones for granted. Wishing her and Rasmus all the best; it sounds like they both embody a true warrior spirit

The only good news i can think of is that I'm 55 now , so death isn't too far away. 😂😂😂

As a Canadian, I’d be pretty nervous about border patrol checking my phone—mostly because they’d discover that I’m still a die-hard Sabres fan after all these years, and probably question my sanity. 😂 A few years ago, I actually decided not to spend another penny on the Sabres until they prove they’re no longer a Mickey Mouse franchise. As for crossing the border, my son and I are also Pirates fans (yes, we cheer for both the Sabres and the Pirates 🤦‍♂️). We thought about catching a game or two this year, but coordinating the trip would’ve been a headache. Add in the possibility of hassles at the border, and we figured it just wasn’t worth it.

100% agree. Keeping Byram now, gives them more time to see if Quinn or Rosen can step up and fill a role in the top 9 im optimistic about Quinn still Play Byram next to Dahlin, his numbers will look great and drive up his trade value. if Quinn doesn't rebound , then you will have a market for Byram

Does he have a NTC? If so, why waste any brain cells even dreaming about?

There are very few teams with cap issues.

Imagine the hope they would create if they traded next years first rounder (lottery protected of course) for a legit NHL player? it won't happen though. Sabres are a draft and develop team. bottom feeders for the rest of the league only real hope is to luck into the playoffs on the back of a goalie that gets hot for A couple of months.

You trade him and create a hole you can't fill on D. Sign him for 2 years, play him with Dahlin. See what happens As for the forwards. The Sabres are a draft and develop team it's time for one of their high draft picks to grab the bull by the horns and take a spot in the top 6 Quinn - we know he can do it. Hopefully becomes the player we thought he would be prior to injuries or Rosen - This is it for him. Hopefully not a tweener (AHL / NHL) but he has to show it this year Helenius - has a shot, they said he was close coming into last year... probably starts in AHL but hopefully takes a big step forward

Sabres and crazy spending? You've been following along during the Pegula era , right? as for RFA's. The Sabres would need to target this "First- and Third-Round Picks: If the AAV is between $4,680,077 and $7,020,113, the compensation is a first- and third-round pick." as they don't own their 2nd round pick next year

Isn't Marner to Vegas basically a done deal? The only reason he would have a conversation with The Sabres is so that he can leverage them to sign elsewhere hopefully there will be some crazy spending tomorrow on a weak UFA crop and some teams will get themselves in a position where it's difficult to sign their RFA's. That's where Buffalo needs to come in with an offer sheet

Are the Sabres better off with Byram on the top pair and Jack Quinn in the top 6 OR are they better off with Samuelsson or Timmins on the top pair and a legit top 6 winger? I'll probably be in the minority but I prefer Byram and Quinn option Hopefully Jack has a bounce back year.

"Arguably the most violent player in the class, with the mobility, reach, defensive traits, and bloodlust to develop into a tremendous play killer.” EP

"Timmins is a promising, bigger-bodied offensive defenseman with upside if he can stay healthy. His advanced stats show he drives play and contributes more offensively."

Good pick, no issues. Now let's not see you in a Sabres uniform for at least 4 years. 1 more year in WHL 2 years in AHL and then let's see where he is.

Isn't that why they cant win? Too many young defensemen

Definitely feeling they take Mrtka

So there goes Martone and Martin Almost 100% now Sabres are going with Aitcheson or Mrtka

Maybe the Sabres can steal Martin when he's 23 and ready to break out , like the Panthers did with Bennett 🤷‍♂️

Pretty sure Martone goes next

IF Martin and Martone at 9, I hope they take Aitcheson I want compete level and toughness and this kid has that. I don't care that he is a LHD

Completely disagree. you give 25 NHL mgmt teams / owners Dahlin, Eichel, Reinhart and Thompson (not to mention Ullmark) and they turn that into a legit contender for playoffs every year. At least 10, turn them into cup contenders.

You need the biggest stars on your team in the NBA to win because if you have the stars you have the refs NHL doesn't work that way

Let's pretend a new owner with competent mgmt and coaching came in during the 2019-20 season. Leafs got dominated when the Panthers decided to play their game Also, Let's not forget Bob wasn't on his game for the first 2 either

When you have a core of Eichel; Tage, Reinhart and Dahlin the tank worked to perfection unfortunately they couldn't figure out the 2nd part and that's how to rebuild out of it
