Broken Ankles

Low bar…..Limbo lower now. How low can you go?

I prefer the D&D on Sullivan Street, across from the medical center.

Y Knot F WNY.

This. Nothing more important than my team, nothing less important than theirs. I felt concerned for Lehner as a human, but as a player, nothing.

Rudderless Shame

Doubtful any team offer sheets this guy. Cap/Risk/Comp in that order. What would be a possible offer a team could make - $7.0M for 5 years? The comp is only a 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Easily matched. You need to get to $8.7M * 6 before you get 4 1st in return. Who has this space and would risk these picks? If its Detroit, yes please. Doubt he even sees anything but a bridge deal from KA.

As if losing Hall and Ullmark to the Dastardly* Bruins weren’t enough, they go and sign Steven Fogarty. When will the pain end?

Plus 1.

You assume he will have a long term offer?

👀 Usually this comment creates a RoR tangent. Prolly not today though.

The only PPG UFA (2021) available today! Great job KA!

Three hours for this announcement?

Is GMKA taking PTO today?

Neither D have played a game in the NHL. I can’t see why we need/want 2 D Men as a return. Unless one is Miller and a guaranteed top 4 with the second, a prospect. Prefer a top Center and fewer pieces.

Home Run Hollywood formula - add heaping amounts of beautiful young people, Four parts of washed up actors, a sprinkle of hybrid porn stars, copious amount of nudity. Shake.

Risto joined the Power Play on Sirius XM today. Extremely complimentary to The Sabres staff, players and fans. Class act.

Six 20 goal scorers? Did you just get your hopium booster shot this morning? I’d be happy if they could get 6 15 goal scorers. Maybe there is roster player(s) coming back in the Jack deal, but if futures not sure. #loweredexpectations.

Lothar, of the Hill People? Much have you seen and much have you done. The trade for Sam feels worse but is it when you consider what the Rags received for Buchnevich? I’ve read a few different articles regarding the draft and the Sabres had some surprisingly good marks from many, including Pronman. The crew was skeleton, but Karmanos had access to all Pittsburgh’s scouting reports so definitely a check and balance on our guys. And Kudos to KA for taking a flock of Russians. As noted in an another post, might help them acclimate as a group when they do arrive in Western NY. Waiting for UFA, Eichel trade and maybe a trade with a club needing to shed cap space before I’m doom and gloom. Maybe check back in 2 years 😉. JK, the conversation here is unparalleled, welcome.

@pi2000 sitting at home comparing the returns of Risto and Sam.

@Brawndo is not a real person but rather HAL 9000 from 2001 A Space Odyssey. Incomprehensible to post information this fast.

You mean isn’t right? Typo?

I think this award was fan/internet voting only. After all, if they watch ESPN, they know nothing about hockey, and are most likely US citizens. Kind of like Zemgus being an all-star.

Elvis is exempt, and Holtby has a modified NTC. Wouldn’t surprise me if Buffalo is on his list . And it’s a toss up as to whether Risto would be protected over Vancouver’s D.

Like who? Of the teams that will most likely lose a goalie (Vancouver, Montreal, Minnesota, Dallas) I can’t see Risto replacing any of the current number three defenseman on the protection list. Maybe Myers in Vancouver.
