SDS Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 I think every goalie in the league knows that, but most still can't make the save. It will be interesting to see how Miller does against it. It is a pretty sick move. Getting a puck up like that on the backhand is not uber-easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PASabreFan Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Al seems like an NYC guy. Fashionista. Enigmatic fella. Likes the anonymity. He might just thrive there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrader Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 Oh man, I bet his former team mate Chris Drury talked him into it, seeing as they're buddies n all. ;) Hopefully this works out as well for them as the Kalinen signing. So you're suggesting that they'll package him for a trade deadline rental? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carpandean Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 I was really hoping that he would stay out West. Now, I'll have to explain to everyone again how of the four SO losses that we will inevitably suffer against the Rangers, having him vs. not having him would likely have only cost us one point and that's assuming that having him on the Sabres wouldn't have prevented us from even reaching the shootout in the first place or, conversely, that he didn't actually keep the Rangers from beating us in regulation. Oh well, at least he's not in the Northeast. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfreeman Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 I'm glad for Al, who seems like a perfectly nice guy, but that is a ridiculous move by the Rangers. Further evidence of Sather's bozo-ness. Also further evidence that "at least they're doing something" is a shortsighted way to evaluate a team's offseason.

Ted's Hot Dogs Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 I dont understand why we let go of kotalik..when everybody would just skate around losing the puck...he would be the only one to shoot,,and my god he can shoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesportsbuff Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 McKee to Pitt....1 year 800K <_< that's Doug Janik money... that pisses me off so much. if the FO doesn't think Jay McKee is an upgrade over both Tallinder and possibly Sekera then I don't like our chances of contending any time soon. For that kind of money... wow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For that kind of money... wow McKee was the past - he is not the player now that he was as a Sabre Sekera is the future, pushing him lower down the pecking order does not help the team in any which way Tallinder and Hecht - when they were playing great everyone here was solidly on the bandwagon. when they played crap like last season, suddenly everyone's hating on them. ups and downs will happen - i highly doubt Tallinder gets traded. the Sabres orgzn is becoming famous for giving players second, third, fourth, nth chances..

Eleven Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 McKee to Pitt....1 year 800K <_< that's Doug Janik money... Now I'm pissed. I was not pissed when the Sabres refused to overspend, but now it appears the team isn't even making value moves (and it will be tough to convince me that McKee's agent didn't contact Regier in the last 10 days). This would have been a no-brainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
