before the season started, I thought for sure Vancouver would be the worst team


never thought at this point we would only have 1 more point than them

I do not endorse this view, but it does make one small tiny valid point.

We have a bottom six of just dead weight: Moulson, Gionta, Gus, d lo, Ennis and grant are replacement level or worse.

We have about 2 defensemen.

The system is so boring. It's unwatchable at times

I think we could get a pretty good draft choice for fossil or molasses from a playoff team but of course the Sabres don't want to ruin a relationship or sour

Can't pull the trigger

if by molasses, you mean Moulson, I disagree. I don't think anybody will take that contract. At this point, I think we're better off taking the cap penalty and buying him out. He's too detrimental 5-on-5

He's actually not, possession wise, shots produced wise and shot suppression wise. He also makes his teammates better according to the old Hero Chart.

His production 5 on 5 could use an improvement but a guy that scores on the power play is a guy that scores on the power play.

I still see him or Ennis going to Vegas

last 4 mock drafts had ennis, girgens, ullmark (twice) going to vegas


if the lehner contract talks get crazy, meaning lehner wants 6 per, does ullmark become the goalie we protect?

If Lehner wants $6 million per then yes protect Ullmark, I still don't see any goalie from Buffalo being selected with the MA's, Bishops, of the world being out there.

pretty sure vegas needs to draft 3 goalies, so 1 or 2 will be prospects


they can't draft bishop, they would have to sign him


maf has to be protected from expansion

I don't see anything to suggest that Lehner could seriously ask for 6per with a straight face. Murray won a cup and got 4. Robin just got a sweet neck tattoo.

I can't even fathom how it's possible he's making his teammates better. He spends the shift unsuccessfully tracking down pucks in the corners

He is basically a standard 3rd line winger according to the Hero Chart. A third line winger who scores a lot on the PP.

I am not a huge fan of the Hero Charts but it does tell you some interesting info.

anytime a goalie is over .92 save % for 2 straight years, the conversation shifts to north of 5 per IMO

f anderson got 5 per with worse numbers

If Lehner wants anything other than a bridge contract, then show him the door. He's been outplayed by his backup.

Still holding out hope for that Gerbe perma ban. And I didn't have George Michael on my dead list damn.
