Callie Sjalin: 24 year old Swedish LD. 2nd year in AHL, 22 games this year, 3 points.

He could end up playing against the Amerks if they face Cleveland in the playoffs. Tyler Toffoli to Winnipeg for draft picks.

O’Reilly without his beard looks like Lucic.

Actually they need to trade him tomorrow while the highlights are fresh in GMs minds.

It’s infuriating how many times the Sabres pass up a shot on goal to try to make the perfect play. Nashville just throws it on net and crashes for rebounds.

Byram would have prevented that.

He’s the topic at hand, not other owners. And given Buffalo’s relatively smaller population, it has more of an impact on taxpayers. Remember those famous words, “If I need more money I’ll drill another well”.

Pegula blackmails taxpayers to reduce the cost of the lease and/or pay for much of the needed renovations, or else he’ll sell the team to investors in Utah, Atlanta, Houston, or Quebec.

The scoreboard isn’t a priority for fans. Replacing the uncomfortable seats with inadequate leg room is. At 6’3’ I have to turn my legs to the side to fit.

While McDavid and Matthews may be the best offensive players, McKinnon is the best all-around skilled leader like Crosby or Messier who rises to the occasion to lead his team in the playoffs.

Patrick Kane sure would have looked nice on the Sabres power play. 😩

Compared to most other arenas, Buffalo has some of the least inspiring singers in the league. It’s like a funeral when they sing.

No, because they win just enough to make KA and DG think this roster is good enough if given more time. They’re not going to make the playoffs, so it would be more of a wake up call if they continued to lose.

Likely because he had previous success in his hometown Montreal, a reward for his Monday game, UPL needs a break, and Adams and Granato still think they can make the playoffs. Three of those four are valid. Then he’ll go back to Rochester for the weekend.

Paul Hamilton said that Tim Murray started this scheduling request so he could screw with western teams. FYI: If the game is going bad you can switch to the NHL Network which is showing the Amerks at Toronto game at 2pm EST.

I’m not defending Comrie, but they play just as bad in front of UPL, as evidenced by their inability to score in so many games.

Adams probably has the 9-3 win over Toronto on a loop at the Pegula house, and Terry doesn’t notice.

Yet when UPL is in net they still struggle to score and have the 29th ranked power play. So that’s a false premise.

It could be viewed as a great opportunity for a player who is being buried in the Bruins organization by the talent ahead of them.

Time to trade for a top 4 D. Calgary is having a fire sale, go for Hanafin.

They’ll probably just move Benson there and dress Olofsson.

Worse: Mittelstadt who is a soft along the boards turnover machine. His offense doesn’t make up for his defensive deficiencies. They have enough similar players signed to longer contracts. Sign and trade him for a gritty playoff experienced forward or top 4 defenseman. Better: Krebs is a gritty two-way center with good passing ability who doesn’t get enough chances with offensive skilled wingers.

Vegas center Chandler Stephenson is a UFA. Excellent face off man, 3 or 4 line two-way player who kills penalties.
