I want to see this kid grow up and become a sabre, going to suck for me if he gets traded :(
-
There are few RW candidates we should look at though. Seeing i don't like the UFA RW market where Williams, Frolik, Stewart are your top 3. We should be looking to trade for one. Eriksson might be one of the cheapest options from a cap strapped bruins team. Vrbata still rumoured to be on the trade block in vancouver, also cap strapped. In the end it will most likely still be RoR we trade though, Stewart or frolik to round out the bottom 6 i wouldn't mind.

Gionta is not a top 6 player. I also believe when this team becomes good, Girgensons ( I want skill over compete in our top 6 ) won't be in our top 6 either, and that may happen next year already. Ennis, Kane, Eichel, Reinhart, Moulson + RW we trade for or Grigorenko those will be in our top 6 next year. If moulson drops to 3rd line duty, he either started sucking really bad or our top 6 gotten much better. I would also try and start Hodgson out on top 6 RW if we don't have traded for one. I believe next year we'll start to see the beginning of a team rolling out 3 lines again like the 2006 - 2008 sabres.

There was never any reason to believe he would go back to russia, the kid said many times before already he wanted to play for the sabres. Next year will be very interesting to see how our prospects all turn out. Will grigorenko finally bust out and become a top 6 player ? the difference i think between him and Zemgus is, i don't expect Zemgus to be more than a 3rd liner on a good team. Grigorenko still has a higher ceiling for me.
-
I don't like that set up, i doubt grigorenko will stay on the center position. Moulson - Eichel - Ennis Kane - Reinhart - Grigorenko Foligno - larsson - Girgensons Deslauriers - McCormick - gionta Kaleta I think this setup would have better chemistry, Also doubt nobody gets traded for a top 6 RW.

Varone is the only one that should be signed, the other two can sign AHL contracts.
-
Vrbata is rumoured to be available , canucks want to get younger,need draft picks and have cap issues. Seeing our glaring need at RW i wonder what it would take. Edit: doubt the canucks would trade to only player that can keep up with the sedins though.
-
Don't think richardson wants to get stuck in the AHL behind babcock.
-
Very happy with eichel, hoping we draft him :D I know its close to 100% but never know what will happen, eichel just has a different skill set than Mcdavid.
-
uggh still can't believe i had the canucks and jets winning their 1st round. The rest of them i was spot on though. I think ducks - flames will be nice to watch as well. hope the wild can finally keep up with the blackhawks or it will be over in 5 games. Montreal vs tampa, well i had tampa as a finalist , but it will all depend on price i think. Rangers will win from the caps in 5 games.

Jon snow still knows nothing :D

Former Sabre Don Edwards fights to keep parents' killer in jail
Huckleberry replied to MBHockey13's topic in The Aud Club
To be honest, in clear cut cases like these, i wouldn't mind the dead penalty. My opinion but a very popular one over here. -
Unless he gets persmission he isn't allowed to talk to another team untill 30th of june when his contract expires.
-
Wish i could just vote NO :P That being said he'd be a great #4 LHD if he got his act together though

off topic Killer of 4 wears Sabres cap during interview

I'm one of those people for whom its never to soon -
I think they are just delaying the Sansa sex scene for another year. :p thought episode 8 was always the big bang :p
-
Not much you can see during an end of year press conference after a year like this. Only thing you can do is pull out the old bag of clichés again, and that is not TM's style.
-
Yeah i never read the books, but a mate who has, said the first 4 episodes that got leaked were a bit slow and boring.
-
around episode 8 no doubt :p
-
Very interested in Saad, but i can't see them letting their future go, Hossa or sharp are more likely. Would love the idea of hossa on our top line with eichel and kane though. But seeing his age i wouldn't give a 1st rounder for him.

Your Profession - Maybe There Are Connections To Be Made!
Huckleberry replied to CallawaySabres's topic in The Aud Club
Its all about the culture of lawsuits that really got out of hand. Over here a mistake by a doctor gets handled by a board, the doctor gets suspended for life if its a really bad mistake or for just a limited time, the victim gets compensated but just to rectify the mistake. Not 3 million dollars or something :P -
Kessler is doing fine in anaheim though, he anchors a solid 2nd line there. Wonder if chicago can match that.

Evan Rodigues Signs with Sabres Confirmed 2 YR Deal
Huckleberry replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Darcy tucker :p -
I don't think their D is that bad, Nurse and Klefbom are young but should make for a nice 3 - 4 pairing. They just need to add a veteran or two and landing Mcdavid + hiring chiarelli makes that alot easier.
-
Just saw stewart feeding Niederreiter, that is the kind of stewart i would love in buffalo, battling on the boards while keeping his head up to make that pass. On a good established team he has a 3rd RW spot that you can move up as well. We don't have that team as of yet though.
