Hickey doesn't look good.

LOL, I work in the industry, believe me... it's no secret.

Love that response, spot on.

I use a VPN for other things, but I don't see an access point in WNY.. I'll guess I'll try NYC but not hopeful. I'll be following here as well... DELETED

My guess is the Sabres don't want to pay a global delivery cost to the CDN delivering the stream. By limiting it to the Buffalo area, they'll keep their bandwith costs down.

Mike Peca tho

The knock on him was that he needed to bulk up a bit. However, there's a big difference between improving functional strength and just getting bigger, That said, there's no way to quantify his development until we see him play.

I like it. What's the cap hit? Don't worry, he's going to be better this season.... simply because he can't be any worse than he was last year.

Will it be available out of market after the game is over?

I would like to go on record that it's a mistake to play Dahlin in the prospect tournament. He should be skating with his teammates, not scrubs... why risk injury? He's already made the team, give him a few pre-season tilts and then save him for the regular season. He's 18, he's never played a full NHL season, the fewer meaningless games he plays right now the better he will be later in the season.

So just because Olofsson has an above average shot means he's going fill the void left by ROR? That's probably the worst take I've ever read on here.

Matt Donovan tho.

It's not fair to the rest of the team if Asplund outplays Larsson in camp and then gets sent down. It sends the wrong message.

Girgensons and Larsson are the last remnants of the tank years. Their presence alone is a drag on the team. In order for this team to take that next step, they both need to go.

I don't think it changes anything. What matters is where he was when he was drafted.

I'll put my superior hockey managerial skills on display if there's still a spot.

So no college? Does this ruffle JBOTs feathers?

They both have 1 year left on their deals. They're highly expendable. If JBOT is truly trying to change the culture I expect at least one of them to be put on waivers.

But.... if he's better than Larsson and Girgensons out of the gate... why not play him? Asplund already has 4 years of pro hockey under his belt.

I'm hoping Asplund and Berglund lock up bottom 6 center spots and we never mentioned Larssons name again.

Yes! So we get to watch hockey on Friday... finally! Seems like forever ago.

Wheeler is a stud, worth a slight overpay. Schmidt is full of Schmidt.
