Boedker wants a lot more money than he is worth. He is speedy and good on the pp but that's about it. I wouldn't mind getting Fowler, but I won't be surprised if we pass on him now. Hoffman seems like a good player to target if the price is right (I'm not sure what that is). Going after Okposo could be a good move but paying him 6mil a year seems like a stretch. He is a RW so what line does he fit in on?
Kane-ROR-Okposo
Vesey-Eichel-Reinhart
Ennis-Girgs-Gionta
Foligno-Larsson-Deslauriers
Im not sure if you maybe have Moulson in the box or what to do with him. And what if Fasching has a strong camp, do you want him with the Sabres to start the year? Im thinking Ennis or Girgs is traded before the start of the year.

Stop with this Okposo poop...

Gonna make me hurl.

9 hours and 40 minutes till the Steely Dan concert

Veseys agent said that they plan on going to free agency anyway after the trade lol I don't know why so many buffalo fans can't accept that or think the agent lied.

Last time it was to tell us how the Rangers were getting Stamkos.

That worked well for all of us.



(Note: I called it all along that I thought he was going to go back to TB)

I hate to break the news to you, but we needed Stamkos, you watch the playoffs? complimentary guys are signed when you have the core in place and we don't have that. We won't sniff the playoffs with the roster we have, we needed Stamkos on this team.

Like I said earlier, like it or not, we are going to be a team built via the draft. I am okay with that, I've waited 40 years so far, whats another 2 or 3.

Just scroll back about 3 pages.... you will see about 3 posters literally crying their eyes out like the sky is falling and that no good free agents will ever come to Buffalo... And how we for sure arne't getting Vesey now without stamkos... Buffalo will NEVER have elite talent.... these guys we have now are absolute bums... It all started with Brad Richards...


It was an absolutely swimming pool of tears in here.

I don't think its just Buffalo, guys don't go to losing teams when they have other options for similar money, its just the way it is. In couple of years, if we are winning, we will start to get our fair share of UFAs.

If I had to guess...

I bet we get one of these UFA wingers (Okposo, Brouwer, or McGinn) ... and then sign Vesey.

If we do make a trade at this point.. I will be a little surprised. I'd bet we only make a trade for a winger if GMTM feels like we won't get Vesey.

Not sure where Fowler would even fit in because he is no better suited to be a top pair option with Risto than Kulikov or McCabe is. Risto, Kulikov, Bogo, and McCabe are all quality top 4 guys so who goes to a 5-6 job if you add another??

That doesn't answer my question.

I'm a true Buffalonian, through thick and thin. And I enjoy the company of fellow Buffalonians, my good sir. Now shall we split an order of Duff's wings and a Labatt Blue Light 6 pack as we discuss the upcoming winter?

"As for free-agents, Friedman speculates Islanders winger Kyle Okposo could get Bobby Ryan-money ($7 million per). If the Blues fail to re-sign David Backes and Troy Brouwer, they could pursue Okposo and Frans Nielsen."

From Spector's

$7m for Okposo's? No thanks.

Any team that pays Okno 7 per is out of their mind.

I don't think they even sell that here anymore. Whats on the shelves is old
