SSSS? Regardless, if he is in the top 4 next season, the Sabres are once again in rough shape.

No great loss. Small good skating blue liner. Plenty of those guys in the pipeline including Bryson and Johnson.

This 100%. This plan to play hockey into July, August and even September is going to ruin two seasons.

Very interesting. Someone’s future at PSE could be in jeopardy.

Let’s see how “popular” the STH renewal numbers are with ownership.

Already said this in another thread, but this is BS. Either a team is in the lottery, or they are in the playoffs. You can’t be part of both. The NHL continues to be a 2nd rate league

I’m in my early 60’s. Maybe some info is buried in my brain never to return. ?

We are smart...you are idiots...and if you renew your season tickets you either have a lot of disposable income you don’t care about, or you just continue to believe that this ***** show can’t get any worse.

3 things... - I was wrong. I 100% believed that Bettman would wait to see what the NBA plan is, and then just follow their lead. - BS on the draft lottery. You are either in the lottery or the playoffs. You shouldn’t be part of both. - Buffalo not even in the 10 finalists as a hub tournament city. Is the Pegula’s star fading as a result of their incompetence as owners?

As we descend upon 2030’s, the Sabres have now missed the playoffs 20 years in a row....and this is after the playoffs expanded to 24 teams every year...after the coronavirus 24 team playoff. ?

Poorly worded on my part. I meant I never heard about the wrong announcement. I fixed my post.

Would Anaheim take back Montour for Henrique and retain some of his salary? ?

I’d be shocked if they could get a mini training camp in place in the next 2-3 weeks. There is no formal agreement in place, and players are scattered around the world. I’m beating a dead horse, but just put this season to rest, and hope for the best come September.

Sorry for those who don’t have access or don’t want to sign up for a free trial. I’ve been a fan since day 1, and I don’t ever remember hearing about the spin of the wheel announcing incorrectly that Vancouver had won the spin. Most of the other items, I have a recollection of https://buffalonews.com/2020/05/24/buffalo-sabres-gilbert-perreault-punch-imlach-rene-robert/?utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=puma&utm_source=Facebook#Echobox=1590322234

Just remember the player also has to want to sign the offer sheet. Say for instance Cirelli has no interest in playing for this train wreck of a franchise...then the Sabres offer sheet is not going to happen, no matter what the $$$ are.

I can’t believe they are going forward with the playoffs in July and August format, and then screwing up next season by starting late and either ending late, compressing the schedule, or reducing the number of games. Anyways, I have tuned out watching the news because I’m sick of hearing the same stuff over and over...but hockey related...how are the hockey players from outside the US and Canada getting back here? Isn’t there an international travel ban coming into the US?

I've been on the trade Montour bandwagon since last fall. Just don't care for his style, and he is one bargaining chip that could be used to bring in much needed forward help...by himself or in a package. Back to the thread topic...Risto was better than in past years, but that isn't saying much. I'd give him another season.

What the heck is happening to my teams? It’s one thing to be good but with a dysfunctional front office, but to be dysfunctional and suck for years on end? One thing comes to mind...Daniel Snyder’s ownership of the Redskins. ???

I still contend that Bettman doesn’t want to cancel before the NBA does. If the NBA cancelled tomorrow, Bettman would follow suit immediately.

Just cancel already. This is embarrassing. Who cares about hockey in the middle of summer played in empty arenas?

According to the page..Houle on the left, Tardif on the right, but I have no idea. I’ll go with you. ???

That was the easy one. ?. The other 2 had decent NHL careers.

Saw this on a Facebook page I follow. This trio put up a combined 277 points in 68-69. Any guesses for those who did not see this posted on Facebook?

How has Toronto, a city of several million people, have so few cases and deaths from COVID-19? https://www.toronto.ca/home/covid-19/covid-19-latest-city-of-toronto-news/covid-19-status-of-cases-in-toronto/

I said the same sort of thing up thread....and yes it is a "dick move".
