[Jack Eichel and 2023 3rd Traded to Vegas for F Alex Tuch, C Peyton Krebs, 2022 1st Top Ten Protected and 2023 2nd]

I’m glad this is finally over, just as everyone else seems to be. This is the value you get for a broken Jack Eichel, nothing more, nothing less.

The pick protection is the only real frustrating part and there is a chance (considering Tuch’s injury situation) this is a true zero for Eichel in five years BUT that’s, again, what you’d expect. I feel that’s very unlikely.

I haven’t been big on Krebs before but he has made some beautiful play. There was a cross-ice pass for an assist in the playoffs (I think?) last year that changed my mind on him already.

The most important questions have yet to be asked:

What number will Tuch wear? Mogilny remains the only 89 in team history, his precious numbers are 10 (taken), 12, 17, 37 (taken), 53 (taken).

What number will Krebs wear? He wore 18 in Vegas which is retired. 19 was his Juniors number and is available. He has also worn 17.

Eichel? 9 and 11 are both available in Vegas (but 15 isn’t). So is 69.

There’s a reason why Mogilny wore 89, just like Jagr wore 68. AFAIAC, 89 is off limits.

I wonder what the chances are for either of these two players to be disgruntled upon coming over? I wonder if we got to speak with them at all?

Ask the fly on the wall. He knows.

I can’t help but notice that Eichel got traded to a town that has a replica of the Eiffel Tower. But here’s my question: does RJ have the rights to the “Eichel Tower” moniker, or can Dave Goucher use it now?

Respect, you're too kind!

 

I find it difficult to have any sympathy for Kane. Especially since more and more stuff seems to come out about how much of a bum he is. He's been given a golden ticket and has behaved just as poorly as the non-Charlie kids from Willy Wonka.

Unfortunately, there are too many real-life Veruca Salts.

You may want to take note that one of the most popular songs in Boston is Neil Diamond’s Sweet Caroline. Written in the 70s.

Just like “Gloria” by Laura Branigan in St. Louis, right?

I guess. It’s also supposed to be a celebratory song.  My favorite song in Comfortably Numb but I’m not celebrating a goal with it.  

I guess that means you wouldn’t celebrate with this either:

Holy cannoli, how old are all of you? Anything AC/DC is extremely out of touch, and outdated. 

I would rather see the Earl of Bud dancing after a goal. 

Ask @PASabreFan. He posted an old church hymn in this thread that I heard from my previous funeral.

I wish I could share in your enthusiasm. It’s too much of a reminder of bush league hockey and its usual suspects.

From what I heard in the game, Andre Smith made some costly mistakes and penalties. Otherwise, we might have won the game.

There’s no way he gets traded. Tennessee will be competing for a playoff spot.

Good point. Even if they make it, everything I’ve read does not show them to be serious contenders.

I’m not. I’m just noting his record against Buffalo. He leads the league in rushing by a mile right now. He’s probably a Hall of Famer.

Yup. The trade deadline is coming up. If he gets moved to a team that’s expected to go deep in the playoffs, that will change the postseason picture considerably.

Very easy schedule but that might hurt in the long run with zero competition to get playoff ready

Awww. You poor thing. Here, have a 🍪 while I serve you up two minutes in the sin bin for interference and give you the penalty box song.

Love it. Or a big save.

I could see that. Hašek should have had one for that point blank save he made on Mario Lemieux back in 97 (one of the few games I’ve managed to see in person).

That had to be the least challenging flight the FAA has had to deal with all year.

So glad to see that Luke Russert was raised right. His dad would be proud of him.

Oh, and one of the tangent threads from that #BillsMafia takeover in Nashville was freakin’ hilarious!

After tonight the Bills have:

vs Miami (1-5)

@ Jacksonville (1-5)

vs NYJ (1-4)

vs Indianapolis (2-4)

@ New Orleans (3-2)

vs New England (2-4)

@ Tampa Bay (5-1)

vs Carolina (3-3)

@ New England (2-4)

vs Atlanta (2-3)

vs NYJ (1-4)

 

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a schedule that easy. Any given Sunday and all that but a win tonight and this team should be anywhere from 14-3 to 16-1. It’s all about staying healthy and not letting anyone sneak up on you. Tampa is the real deal. Other than that? New Orleans, New England and Indianapolis are all teams that have competed but are inconsistent. Carolina looks terrible these last three weeks.

Let’s win tonight and go into the bye feeling confident we can control the conference.

The Titans have me concerned, especially with Derrick Henry. I watched him play in the 2016 Iron Bowl vs. Auburn. He was just steamrolling over Auburn’s defense like there was no tomorrow.

 

Then again, Tennessee does not have the benefit of being off for 17 days like they did last year.

and this one.  I still play this one for my kid who is a Jr.

 

If we can have two (but no more than that), then I’ll edit my OP. Metal’s my thing as it is.

His best year is 609 yards, which is the 4th best by a Bills TE, behind Paul Costa (726 in 1967), David Nelson (658 in 2011), and Scott Chandler (655 in 2013).

Knox is on pace for 835 in a 16-game season, 887 in the new 17-game season. Knox also has 5 TDs already, which is only 1 behind the best by a TE for Buffalo (Chandler in 2011 and 2012, Pete in 1992).

I forgot about the rest of them. Pete stood out to me because he was on those SB teams.

[Each Sabres Player will have Their Own Goal Song This Season]

The goalies should come up with their own songs after they win a game. Maybe even if they pull off a Ron Hextall.

He's on pace for the most yards by a Bills TE, though that isn't saying much.

Even more than Pete Metzelaars? I thought that would say a lot.
