Sekera would be a tough pill to swallow. It would also give us a surplus of forwards. Vanek - Coho - Pommers Ennis - Grigo - Foligno Ott - Reilly - Stafford That would be over 33 million (I gave Coho and Reilly a combined 7ish) in that top 9, not including Leino's 4.5. So that would be over 40 million in our forwards. MIller and a back up would cost 7-7.5, which would leave us 16.5 million to sign 6 D men. After Myers and Ehrhoff, it would leave us 7 million to sign the other 4/5 d men. So clearly, If we trade Sekera for Reilly then we need to lose fowards. We can't have that much salary tied up in the top 9 and we can't have a 4th line worth 7 million. Does anyone have information on Leino? This guy is basically not a sabre in my mind. I know he was skating again recently, do we have a time frame and the cause of it all?

I really like Ennis, i'm just not sure I like him at centre - he plays like a winger in my mind. Also, bar that one really good Stafford chance, he hasn't really set his line mates up for nice positions to score from. I still like the guy though. Ennis has 102 points in 154 games Reilly has 107 points in 223 games If we trade Ennis, I would expect to get a top prospect back. Reilly might be harder to play against and better defensively, but Ennis is the beter offensive player.

Where did that list of teams interested in him come from?

Our current pace is for 64.4 points. Columbus got 65 last year. Hello Mckinnon or Jones

I dunno, it just seems like a bad PR move to fire someone a month after signing them to a 5 year extension

What would you sugegst to turn the team around? On paper this looks like a decent team. Also happy birthday

We can now end up 15 in the East if Washington and NYI win their next game and Florida get a point in their next game. Florida and Washington also have 2 games in hand (not including the one they need to win)

Bruins and Lightning both score 2 goals in the final few minutes to take the game into OT

The Sabres might be done for the season with this. We are 2/3 points out of 8th and every other team has 2 games in hand. That could quickly become 6 points out.

46 seconds to get 2 or 3 goals...

Urgh...we just can't bury our chances

http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=655407&navid=nhl:topheads They finally did it!!! CBJ fired their GM

He dived to try and sweep the puck in

Harding is missing games because of his MS - i feel really sorry for the guy

I've studied Marfan's syndrome a fair bit. Could a person with it really make it to an elite level? The cardiovascular defects would surely stop his fitness getting anywhere close to the NHL? Also surely he would have found out about it by now, thus so would scouts etc.? If Myers does have it, then based on the potential he has shown I would say without he would have the potential to be the best player of all time, including Orr

The question is always, was it the change of scenery or the ageing of the player that caused the turn around?

Looks like the coaches made me skate hard that practice. It's good him and Lindy had a sit down chat. He spoke very quickly and very positively of Regehr - Myers says he has spoken to him about it and looks up to him. Maybe we can resign him. "It is a 5 man unit. 6 man unit with Millsie" - brutal take down on Enroth (although I am aware that isn't what he meant :P

Leo has been an enigma, similar to Myers, making some really nice defensive plays and some horrendous ones, often failing to clear the zone

I might put a bet on the sabres. I got an email saying I have some money in my account, which I had no idea about and they the odds are 2/1 we win. This could help with valentines day costs with the girlfriend :P. So if Buffalo ever needed more incentive to win...

So they don't realise how bad he has been this season? Sneaky move by DR

I wish they would move Ennis back to wing. He plays like a winger, not a centre. Ennis centered by Grigo with Foligno (Peppy's lines basically) would be nice

That's amazing. Fake darcy almost makes me want to get twitter

I hope he did bite him. Pacioretty was covering his nose and mouth. I wonder which police officer will conduct the follow up complaint from the Canadien's

My bad. I took FF and FA to mean faceoffs, as the glossary said FenF and FenA - oops

In a year or two his metabolism will drop and he will gain weight. He is 227 now, so if he can get that up to 240-245 i think he will be happy. Pronger is 6'6 220 and Chara is 6'9 257 for comparison
