  1. Did Lybushkin really get injured hitting someone? Oof.
  2. If you live in the Buffalo area there is great Skate, I had a Patrick Roy jersey done there in the late 90's. I'm not sure if they still do but that's where I got mine done.
  3. 7.99M come on GMKA lets get er done, stick with the 7+M theme you got this.
  4. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I have no problem with this but I have to strongly disagree. First off this is Bo Horvat's best season to date or will be he had 61 points in 2018-19, he's already 27 years old so his contract pays him until he's 35 years old. I like Horvat because he can lay the lumber and he's a leader but the Islanders definitely overpaid but they kind of had to after committing picks and prospects to him, he had all the leverage really. Cozens is only 21 years old, in his 2nd full year as the starter and will (if he stays healthy) surpass all of Horvat's previous seasons again in year 2 and this kid is only getting better, I love his physical game, I truly think the sky's the limit for this kid and he's not even close to his ceiling yet imo but again if you don't agree that's cool I'm just giving you my take and by even as close to next year he will most likely have outplayed that contract.
  5. He's having Dylan Cozens season from last year which is right where he needs to be, he's showing signs of his ability and hopefully will get much needed playoff experience as well. I hope the Sabres staff asks him to add some additional weight as well so he can absorb hits better, right now the only thing I don't like from his game is that he gets hit and immediately crumbles most of the time it seems so I'm hoping he adds some muscle in the offseason.
  6. I was watching the goalies a year prior to this draft like Brennan and Leinonen as much as possible because I knew we were going to take one high after the whole Portillo and Levi situation where they both returned to school. I believe I even said on draft day I hope they select Leinonen, he is a player who just eats up a bunch of net and the way he gets back to the other side of the net when he's out of position reminds me so much of Vasilevsky. I know he's struggling but most young goalies do at different points, I think this kid will be special.
  7. If we're going for it not only am I picking up Meier but I'm getting Luke Schenn from the Canucks as well. We would have 3 bruising defensemen in Schenn, Lybushkin and Samuelsson and 2 power forwards in the top 6 with Tuch and Meir and pray that Levi signs with us next season. Draft picks are nice but actually making it to the playoffs and a Stanley Cup should always be the goal. Since we had 3 1sts last season the thought process should be we have 2 seasons in a row where we can afford to spend our 1st on an established player if need be.
  8. I think it will be an interesting deadline for us, I think we'll deal Vinny Hinistroza. Also does this organization think Ryan Johnson/Erik Portillo will sign here? If not can we ship them out for picks or a player/players? I'd love a big, nasty defensemen like Luke Schenn (VAN), he's 32 but only counts 750K against the cap, blocks shots, kills penalties, Leads NHL in hits with 230 (Next best is 199) is a defensive defensemen and are the types of guys that Stanley Cup teams have. I'd also like to add a big winger and C in the bottom 6 like a Nick Ritchie (24th in hits) who is a 2.5M cap hit, the Coyotes certainly wont be asking for a 1st round pick for him. Just adding those 2 players could add another element to our team. Adding Schenn would replace Bryson and adding Ritchie would replace Asplund.
  9. So the announcers for the Wild said the gameplan for the Wild is to use their size because the Sabres are the least physical team in the entire NHL. I'd really like to change that stat as quickly as possible.
  10. Joker take a man not the air next time.
  11. He seems to be clutch when we need him to be, he's definitely growing on me. I really hope he can man the fort while Levi gets here or becomes the man himself.
  12. 2 goals were pretty bad by UPL, the 3rd was Okposo not being able to get it out of the zone and UPL had no chance at a quick glove shot.
  13. Why does it seem every game we give up like 1-3 breakaways? What's the deal?
