wjag Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 @BuffaloSabres: TRADE ALERT: The #Sabres have acquired forward Jerry D'Amigo from @BlueJacketsNHL in exchange for Luke Adam. Pure AHL trade: @BuffaloSabres: #Sabres GM Tim Murray: “Jerry brings a tremendous work ethic to our organization and we know he’ll have an immediate impact with the Amerks" Who and who?

Hoss Posted December 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Or maybe he'll get a callup eventually Maybe. But it's pretty unlikely that they're going to ship somebody off to make room for him. D'Amigo has pretty much proven that he's nothing more than an AHL player to this point. The fact that Columbus has been destroyed by injuries and he never got a call should be a sign of where he's at. Haven't seen his stats mentioned yet: he currently has 3 goals and 4 assists in 7 AHL games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny DangerFace Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I doubt it to, but you never know if he steps his game up a little. He has 4th line talent perhaps. I do think schaller and larsson deserve the chance at bottom six roles first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubkev Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 They're getting somebody who is emotional about what he does. So much so that he's feeling a "world wind" of emotions... @LukeJAdam: World wind of emotions right now. Beyond excited for fresh start with @BlueJacketsNHL organization! Thankful for the new opportunity and At least he didn't start waxing poetic about Nelson Mandela and his leadership on and off the ice.

Huckleberry Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I think we all know the turning point of Luker's career as a Sabre. WARNING: Severe violence from 1:20 onward. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPiC22gNjoM Kassian never leard that lessons, excample sam gagner. Adam wasn't going to hang around after this season anyways, switching career AHL players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) Finally, Luke will get the therapy that he needs. Who the hell is Jerry D'Amigo? I wish him well in Rochester. I don't think this was an acquisition for the big club, but I could be wrong. Edited December 17, 2014 by Eleven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two or less Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 D'Amigo is one of the fastest skaters at the AHL level. It's good to see Murray add some pace to that lineup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PotentPowerPlay22 Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 This is a minor move. Nothing to get too excited about to be honest. The fact is Luke Adam wasn't going to make the NHL in Buffalo. I have no problem with this deal, but the real deals will happen later in the season.

nobody Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I'm going to guess that Luke gets called up to the BJs before D'Amigo gets called up to the Sabres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bigger question...was Adam a negative influence in Rochester and since he had no future with the Sabres, why not send him packing for an AHL'er who can help the Amerks win, and be a positive influence on the youngsters.

LTS Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 What the hell will Amerks fans do now that they can't yell out "Good job Puke!" all the time? I remember D'Amigo from WJHC.. I think. He's tenacious. He's a young Matt Ellis probably. So... there you go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two hooking penalties called and he yells out "Hey, we got a hooker on the ice!" Sigh. Was it a five year old? That's about the only excuse. One guy in my old section would yell " more passing" sarcastically every PP. I go into it with him a few times when they would shoot, get blocked and lead to a shorty. Then he'd tell me they need to take better shots, oh you mean they need to pass more to create those better shots right. :wallbash: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
