Doohickie

I have a Reino... in blue & gold.

That's major league in the U.S. The only Canadian team with more than one is Toronto (Leaves, Blue Jays). But when you're talking about Canadian cities, CFL and NLL enter the chat.

Because the cap is going up. Look for a lot of teams to increase term on role players and minor players. Looks a little high now, but relative value will improve with each passing year.

I'm sure the Sabres social media team will barrage us with memes just before the alternate jersey release...

Do you have Facebook?

It's easy to do. Jarmo can't make his moves with the certainty of post season. He has to make moves in present time.

Sure but he could leave to take a promotion.

You'll have to ask Patrick.

I wonder how much of Östlund's time on IR was "roster management" because there were too many forwards and Lindy wanted to have him available if need be. THe three headed goalie monster put a strain on roster management.

We are not in a hurry. Let Chevy marinate until he crumbles.

The report I saw was he had surgery July 8 with a 4-month recovery time (November).

Third degree burn! fify

I have no problem with snarky. Not crazy about lame.

This collection is hit or miss and in some cases stolen. It also feels like they're trying too hard to be cool.

He never once had any intention of signing Reinhart long term. He wanted a rebuild and signing Reino to a short bridge was the opening salvo.

I also kind of think he will help put the execution of trades together. Not the top level deciding but the yeoman's work of getting all the details laid flat.

To think there is enough information out there to answer your question is foolish.

I think Jarmo is making Chevy stew. Kekäläinen would very much to make a trade, but he's also prepared to not make the trade if it costs too much. Chevy has a discontented goalie that wants to be moved. He has an offer out on the table I think, and it's less than Chevy's ask. If Chevy doesn't come down there will be no deal. Jarmo's waiting for Chevy to blink.

For him to be sent down he would need to play worse than he did in the NHL last year.

It's weird: I went over to the Broons subreddit to troll them during the playoffs and actually had some good conversations with the people over there. By no means am I shifting allegiances or anything but... I don't blindly hate Boston like I used to. I'm sure when we play them the hate will return, but it's been interesting talking to another fan base trying to make themselves better. Back on topic: I think JJP might do well over there, but I also think Senior Advisor to the GM is a good spot for Kevyn. I see him as a knowledgeable "deputy" or "support" kind of guy that should never been given the reins as GM. I think he's got the analytical chops but not the soft people skills for the GM position.
