Sabres Fan in NS

Why not both ??

For as long as he wants he will be signed to 1 year deals. I think there will be one more after this one and then he will become VP of Player Relations or some such.

I bet they have a deal with both. To be announced when camp opens.

I can recognize about half.

The life of a Sabres fan - creating anxiety and drama when there is no need for any. He is under contract for the coming season. The Sabres do not need to sign an extension until almost a year from now. That said, they will not want a distaction during the season. I have a feeling that the contract is agreed to and there will be splashie photo op at the opening of training camp when KA will hand a 29 cent Bic to Dahlin for the staged signing. Flash bulbs will go off and the cheesy grins will be wide spread.

Okay. Different times. Different teams.

He has played many games. He is what he is no matter where he plays. The days of RaKru are over !! Ding ***** the witch is dead !!

Legit shutdown D.

And then Bergeron retired .. BOOM !! Tage is in the top 10.

I have loved the Sabres since the beginning. Through thick and thin. Even the wasted years - I agree with @Weave. Honestly, I have been to a few Bills games when they stank - my uncle had seasons for business years ago, but I am a fair weather fan of the Bills. I am a fan of the Bills, but not the NFL. I am a futbal fan and have a few sides that I follow .. not either from Manchester, nor Munich, nor London - Arsenal or Chelsea .........

Yes.

Why is this a debate? Not casting stones. The 3 most important positions on any NHL team are (in no particular order) .. 1) a stud #1 D - check (and double checked with Power) 2) a stud #1 C - check (and soon to be double checked with Cozens) 3) a stud #1 G - hoping for Levi to check this box Toss in an emerging shut down D in Mule and a number of other key pieces and the Sabres are on the cusp (hey @PASabreFan) of something. The prices of contracts are what they are. One could make the arguement that Dahlin has given the Sabres a home team discount. He probably would have gotten $12M on the open market. We are spoiled with the 3 recent big contracts. If I were KA I would sign Power to 8 years at $8.5M as soon as possible, if not sooner.

100+ points and a Hart finalist.

30G / 50A maybe more, if he plays the whole season. PPG+

He will be the top D in the NHL. Even the NHL will not be able to deny it and he will win the Norris.

By the end of this coming season Power will be a top pair level D on any team in the NHL. He will be the Sabres #2 D and play #3 - top of the 2nd pairing for the next 10+ years.

I miss @X. Benedict. I know he stopped by to pay his respects to Rick. I hope he comes by more often. Times have changed since his departure.

You are a terrible, terrible man. 😉😘

He and Robi ..

Who ??

March 30th will be the national game on HNIC ..

Looks like we have made the big time.

Where did I say he was not a fan. My point was he had to know that the Sabres wer for sale back then, but he could not buy them since he did nto have the $. Your reasons are also perfectly valid and part of the reaason he did not buy the team until he did.

It also can be reasonably stated that he was describing the Sabres for the 10+ years leading up to the last 2.

Mr Pegula could not have purchased the Sabres back then. He did not have his $ at the time. That is the better and more accurate answer than not knowing it was available for sale. The NHL friggin' was publicly running the team at the time.
