So, i will assume that Johnson is not going to sign. I thought both sides were meeting before he left Buffalo from camp.

I like this..... adding more teams is awesome. Should be a fun tourney to watch!!!

So far, i have zero problem with keeping these two together. They both seem to be on the same page and have something that the last couple of pairings did not have...... a plan to actually make the Sabres better from bottom to top. So far it seems to be working out well for us. Time will tell though, but zero problem with the improved product that we have all seen

Still a lot of bigger names out there. I know we are done, but some serious upgrades on the market that can improve someone.

This guy a a solid defensive dman. I think he is going to partner with most likely power so he can do his thing and still have some defense. He would be a waste as a 7th.we need the defensive game he brings and the size/grit.

Would love to snag Dylan Strome. I think he could be a good add to this particular team.

I think the best younger goalie with the most upside and metrics.... another SMART signing by KA. Not big names but analytic darlings.

Defensive physical defenseman. A RHD to boot. Definitely helps.

Our big news for the day....LOL Like the deal anyways.

Looks like it is going to be in 6K we pray....

Totally expecting NOT to hear about or have major Sabres signings. I am really thinking they may add a F/A but not a major player. Maybe a lower class RHD or bottom 6 Fwd. Not seeing a huge upgrade in goalie in the cards either. I think the Sabres have their plan and that's that. Kind of disappointing as today is one of my favorite NHL days and hate watching teams around us get better.

I don't mind him on the team, but who is leaving where we can improve? Not seeing that in the future if we resign last years team.

With Adams, you know it is not going to be known until it happens. This organization is a very tight lipped ship.

But he is capable and what he brings to the room is more valuable. Again, i am not saying that we cannot find better, but there are 2 parts to this. First, is walking the line on who we bring in that is going to influence the decisions of Levi, and Portillo. If they see no chance of playing time, they will walk. Second, have a great locker room player is better then overpaying for a mercenary netminder that will only be here a year or two and brings nothing to the locker room then someone collecting a paycheck. We all get we can have better, but for the overall locker room, this a very smart hire.

When you have a young core of players that are looking up to the leadership of two people in the locker room (Grandpa and Dad) That is worth more then Eichel, Reinhart and anyone else that just has talent. Anderson is more then a serviceable backup. That the team in front of him trusts him speaks volumes. Can we find better? Easily i am sure, but is the fit for the team going to be the same as it is with Anderson in it? Most likely not.

This is a smart signing. He is a respectable backup and an insanely awesome leader in the locker room who is highly respected. From what was said, the plan is still to bring in another goalie and if they are good, 6K will most likely start in Ra cha cha.

Please no more undersized forwards........ I do not care how many points he potted.

Mortgage meaning giving up 3/4 major pieces for a star on his way down the mountain, not climbing up. And, prove it that he is going to be better then the pieces we give up for the next 3 years..... we saw what happened with Hall. (LOL J/K))😁

Is MJ legal where he is from? Crack maybe? NO!!!! I know you have to give to get but he needs to be treated like a one year rental unless there is a locked in extension.

Uhhhh NO thank you..... We could not get what we were asking for Jack and should not pay anything close to that for PK. Do not mortgage the farm for the love of a local player. I would love him on the Sabres but not by giving up 4 pieces for a 1 year wait.

Loving this....Avs my fave western team and they are clearly best of who is left! Still think the rags are going to beat TB and then get killed by the Avs

The Rags have one of the top 3 goalies in the NHL, if not the world right now. They are younger with a great top line. They have great speed and size to play aggressive. Unfortunately the are pretty much a team with only 1 1/2 countable lines for scoring. They do have a great top defensive line but drop hard from there. I think they are very luck this playoffs as they have been mostly playing 2nd and 3rd string goalies. They are ahead of us, but us getting a solid minder, puts us even IMHO.

I have to say i have always hated the Rags. Since the pre cap days when they were always trying to buy their way to the cup, was always laughing when they fell flat on their face during the playoffs. I have to say though, they finally got it right by drafting and developing and smattering in a few vets. They could easily go all the way, especially since their goalie is actually playing better then the rest of who is left. This is is going to be Rags and Avs with the Avs winning in 6. Avs have always been my second fave team and root for them during the playoffs.

Ugh, no reinforcements.....Happy we got this far though!

Unless we get some folks back this is going to end quickly. Losing the captain, starting goalie, and not having our best defenseman hurts when it counts. Happy for the run and playoff excitement. have not had that in awhile.
