And how do you know he's on it? He wasn't on it last friday when it was in PA. He was here at the draft.

Barrie? I would prefer zadorov
- SabresFaninIndiana



Yep

Wouldn't make much sense for Zadorov to get traded back here

What do you think the lines look like if nothing else happens between now and the start of the season (assume Vescey signs)?
I would like the following;
1. Kane - O'Reilly - Okposo
2. Vescey - Eichel - Reinhart
3. Ennis - Zemgus - Fasching (yes Fasching get him up in the lineup)
4. Foligno - Larson - Gionta/Bailey (should rotate Gionta in and out depending on opponent)
D 1. Kulikov - Risto
D 2. McCabe - Bogo
D 3. Nelson - Gorges/Franson
G - Lehner - Ullmark

Thats young, real young, but I like the combos. I dont think trading Zemgus is a wise move. He's quality and brings what good teams need to the table and we would regret it if hes traded down the road.
I'd love another top four D - like Fowler or Shattenkirk to trickle down better talent to 5-6.
The problems i see are that Gionta may just not have much left and Foligno disappears way too much. Ennis if he rebounds, Vescey if he is that good and what the heck to do with Moulson/Franson. I know its a big if but if Fasching or Bailey are as good as advertised and Ennis and Zemgus get it back together this team could be scary good! I know that we will need a better back-up G just in case Lehner gets injured again.

Insert Moulson,
Take out Bailey & Fasching, they'll both start in the AHL unless Vesey doesn't sign, or we have an injury
Bailey is the 1st callup
Nylander likely ahead of Fasching as well

No but they generally wait till they are done for the day to do a presser. Sure he could get a call but I doubt it considering it's almost 5


Really?

Do you honestly think he's going to ignore phone calls and everything in free agents calling him I doubt it he's going to be working after the press conference

Reasonable deal. It doesn't seem like there were many radical over payments this year. Some length of term issues. But not sure about over payments

Can someone give me a quick explanation with why the signing bonus thing is a big deal? (Lack of sarcasm please )

Jesus Christ. Buldog just said Risto has a contract for this year and any extension wouldn't kick in until next year.
