RHD Joseph Cecconi- 6'3" 210 lbs., 8 points last year in Rochester, +4 and a defensive defensmen.

Can he play goalie?

I know, I agree.

That's what I mean, I'm not sure more draft picks is what we need right now.

I was really excited when Lybushkin 1st signed, all i heard was he hit's everything that moves and is solid defensively. I didn't see him hit enough and his defense at least when I focused in on him was just decent to meh. I think Stillman is a younger, better hitter and better defensively so I'm ok with this but we still have Bryson on the roster and we pick up yet another draft pick? We won't have enough room in Rochester pretty soon! Hopefully we can start dealing these picks for a better goalie.

Rest in Paradise RJ... I hope you and Van Miller will be calling plays from above, 2 legends who will never be replaced imo!

1. Boston Bruins- I've grown to despise the entire orginization 2. Arizona Coyotes- Will it ever not be a ***** show there? 3. Vancouver Canucks- Getting paid in looneys/tooneys and being on a crap team seems terrible. 4. New York Islanders- I know they make the playoffs but I always get the feeling that the owner couldn't care less about if they make playoffs or not. 5. Ottawa Senators- For similar reasons as #3, also it seems like a place to go when your career is over or diminishing (maybe not lately).

Yes refusal... Last season I thought ok either nobody wanted to dance with us in a trade or the prices were too high and I was sort of alright with it but were going on year 2 now. Last year Adams was saying it needed upgrading now he's saying he's ok going into the season as is so you can call me ignorant if you'd like, it's just what I believe.

Adams is so frsutratiing and it's so unnecessary, I like him alot but his refusal to upgrade the goalie situation is baffling to put it nicely and if he doesn't address it it could very well end his reign as Sabres GM. If you don't want to give up an actual prospect then trade a draft pick, I mean come on we're so close to becoming a solid all around team reallying on 2 borderline NHL quality goalies (UPL/Comrie) and putting all weight of goaltending on a rookies shoulders is just dumb. We can easily say he can still address this so lets calm down but it should have been addressed last season and then again already by now. Get a legit goalie and we have a chance, we still have a chance with Levi but 1 injury or growing pains and it's over. To think adding Johnson and Clifton will end all of our defensive pronblems is also a bit of a head scratcher, I liked both of the pickups but we still have all of the inept defensive forwards from last season minus Quinn now who I thought started to look decent defensively. When I see posters saying the goalies have better defense in front of them I'm not really so sure it's that much better to be honest unless Johnson and Clifton are 2 of the best in the game defensively? Maybe I'm missing something?

Truth

The more breaking news is who knew the Buffalo News was still around? Crazy to think it's still around and people are actually buying it.

I don't personally think he's HOF material yet but I'm really starting to like this guy, between those skits he does "behind 2 stalls" or "2 stalls and 1 cup" or whatever it is (some of you might get that reference lol) and the consistent aggitation he brings plus he's our top line player.

There are a bunch of Santoras all over, the 1 that I used to go to was the 1 another poster reminded me of and that was the Santoras off or on Millersport Highway. It was a tiny place next to a dentist and another store front but the pizza was excellent, that was in the early 90's. There is also the George Urban location that i may have ate at once but don't really recall since I never lived close to there. This location is on transit road and called Santoras pizza, pub and grill, if you and your wife/girlfriend are looking for just a nice atmosphere , some pizza or a cool bar they have it all, it's just before the Eastern Hills Mall or Clarence mall as some people call it. Cool seating outside, great food imo, nice bar and like I said the crowds are mixed so it's not all young kids, not all old timers but a bunch of all different types usually. I don't work there but I'll definitely bump up a place if I think it's decent and deserves it.... You should check it out sometime even if it's just with a few buds (friends...Not weed).

Yes that's the 1 I'm talking about, It's fairly large, nice bar, all different types of people so it's not just a super young crowd but mixed ages which is always nice.

Wow thats been there for a long time, forgot about that location since I haven't lived out there in quite some time. It was tiny but loved the Pizza there.

The original Boces on Bailey is always my go to, to me there is no others like it. Another good 1 for the atmosphere and overall experience is Santoras Pizza Pub & Grill on Transit road. Really cool atmosphere imo.

I'm on there since I had to check but never remember signing up, I'm under the same name also.

Yikes, again I might sound like I'm being negative but 5'11" 165 lbs. had only 10 points in 55 games, This is more like the 1 in a million rather than the darkhorse imo.

Agreed

Was Drury traded? I thought he signed as a FA.

Trading Tom barrasso and Phil Housley definitely come to mind.

Yeah but I said exclusively towards the end of the year when they were in the playoff picture so I was incorrect, I think I was thinking of the beginning of the season but I was being pretty lazy when I could have just looked it up.

You're correct I counted the Devils game a s a loss.

Yes they lost 5 in a row not 9-10 games, maybe it just felt like that to me. It was crucial though and a big reason we didn't make the playoffs.
