No it doesn't are you telling me they signed him to make jack happy???

And can you explain to me how he is unhappy then ? They needed help with Rochester had a phenomenal year and just got rewarded with the contract has nothing to do with jack IMO

I agree that it was a move for Rochester as well. Building a roster for the AHL club is also something for GM's to think about.

Kind of like when that McNasty, or whatever his name was, was signed for. To watch over the kids in Rochester and never play for the Sabres.

Edit: This new format has shown me more than ever that I need an eye exam and probably some sort of glasses. I can't see poop.

No where do I say that in my post.

You said, "This signing has NOTHING to do with JACK" Its unfathomable that, while he has had an impressive college year, many will and rightfully so suggest that it was a direct result of lining up with Jack Echiel, in simply terms, Management HAD to assess this aspect and in doing so would have discussed the positive and or negative consequences the signing of the linemate & A:Captain of the most important player the BUFFALO SABRES have selected since Gilbert.

This may not be JUST for JACK but I can assure you it is certainly Good for Jack and the Buffalo Sabres Organization will continue to provide/influence decisions with their "ConerStone" Centerman in Mind

And rightly they should, Buffalo is now JACK ECHIEL is from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and health, until STANLEY CUP do us part!

Great i'm happy for the Rochester Americans good signing for them

I am sure the wagon fans are mad. But the true fans that understand hockey are not

I am seriously afraid of the bandwagon that will come when we get good. This site will likely be my only safe haven.

The only reason he had a good senior year was because of Jack. His numbers show that.

Murray wouldn't have signed him if he didn't see something in him...
But u can't deny the obvious connection
I'm sure he's not talking Eichel to skip college to come play with Him, but I'll bet he told Rodriguez he'd get a fair shot to come play with Eichel.

Any word on why "Buffalo is out" of the O'conner sweeps?
I thought it would've been cool to snag all 3

I'm really lamenting the fact that I didn't get to the sportsbook to bet on the Flames in this series when I was in Vegas last week. I forgot the games started early out there. Gamble fail.

Canucks are playing like they've never been in the playoffs before what a embarrassment

Jack is probably pretty pissed at O'Connor for (frank)ing up the whole winning the finals thing.

He will never play in the NHL. He is an undrafted senior in college who had a great year with arguably the best freshman to ever play.

IMO.

Shows what a good center will do.

I'm getting pissed off and I'm not a Vancouver fan

On another note, what teams are you guys rooting for in this sabre-less playoffs? I'm rooting for Anahiem. They're the only team I've ever been able to cheer for and really get into other than the Sabres

Thanks but, "Catch up" that was already addressed prior to the further comments. I stated exactly that in my first post.


" I honestly do find this exciting. I think it shows a direct correlation to Murray creating "A Place that Jack Wants to Be"

I'm not expecting the kid to be a star or even make the NHL, but I love the move!"

There is a long list of NCAA current players that have already been drafted. North Dakota has 14. Providence has 7.

Why would a senior who was never drafted be considered a possibility for the NHL?

OK, I apologize. I did not mean to disrespect you, nor do I think I did.

I just read where someone had given him top honors of all our prospects for this season and I'll be damned I can't find where I read it.

Yeah, but the risk is greater that a cop would be pissed if he scanned it and it showed intentional deception, most times the cops give me a warning, many would definitely cite some with the deception or altering of a legal document as well as being late on your inspection. Not worth it unless you're vehicle is barely limping to its death.

I'll be more excited when "if " we draft Greer has way more upside
