Say what you want about colors, but the goathead is a nice crest. Agree that they should have done it in royal and gold.

Nick Delaurier was a Sabre.

He was a better puck handler?

Thanks for this. Considering the roster, I’m actually surprised that the ES defense is that good.

Record for a season is 12. He could do that.

Honestly, I have not seen a lot of evidence that Bader’s model is very useful for projecting prospects.

I was think that Colorado was a semi good comparable to what Buffalo is going through. They had a very long rebuild with multiple stumbles. They traded away multiple highly drafted, talented players while trying to find the right mix (Duschene, O’Reilly, Barrie). They churned through multiple coaches as well.

Sign Josh Manson this offseason?

I think you are missing a few 0’s. It would be $150,000 each from 500 people to collect $75M.

Is this the first guy who has moved directly from big time NHL player agent to NHL GM?

Tuch and Okposo too. Sabres don’t have much for veteran leadership but they have those guys.

I don’t like JR as much as you, but this After the Whistle podcast has surpassed my expectations. They have been quite good. Peters and Rivet are much better in this format.

Gives him lots of time to eat ice cream and lift weights though. I hope that’s what he is doing.

Assuming that Power and Quinn are no longer considered prospects, then yes, I agree.

In back to back games on Friday and Saturday nights, the Florida Panthers won by scores of 7-1 and 9-2. That is damn impressive.
