If he doesn't sign that he doesn't want to be here then that's easy money that's like winning the lottery

He would have to be in the lineup for Sunday's game

rochester's last game is sat. the 15th

so I guess there is a little time

If he has to be in the lineup Sunday, then the next questions is can we actually call him up? We have used our last call up (Nylander), is a college call up different?

It's not a call up.

He would be assigned to the Sabres and not Rochester

Wow I didn't think about that I think you're right on the money here..

So does it have to be the Sabres or can it be Rochester?

This just sounds like a whole lot of speculation I'll wait till a real report comes out


Edit : wow that is a real report an ESPN has it before any Buffalo media what the hell

I've also heard from a source with direct ties that he'll never play hockey again.

And, believe me, I'm hoping that ^^^ is false.

Was Guhle different? Meaning they weren't allowed to call him up to Buffalo? Would love to see him in the lineup instead of Franson, etc

rochester's last game is sat. the 15th

- homiedclown

Right so I feel like if he doesnt choose to sign in the next 24 hours, it doesn't necessarily mean he wont sign here. Perhaps he may want a little break

if he is a good Catholic boy, the degree alone is worth more than the sabres could offer him for next season
- homiedclown

No such thing...

What happens in that case? Do we Chris Pronger him for the next 6 years?

Guhle is already under contract so its different

No such thing...

I am not talking about a thirsty alter boy

LTIR and forced retirement similar to Cody McCormick?

I thought rochester ended this weekend, so they only rush would be if he wanted to play in nhl this season

What happens in that case? Do we Chris Pronger him for the next 6 years?
- chilliard77

yeah i guess it would be LTIR move at the start of every year.

LTIR and forced retirement similar to Cody McCormick?
- MCGUIZZY

Well I'm wondering if he would be able to officially retire and take the contract off the books completely. Isn't Pronger's situation only the way it is because it circumvented the cap and would have caused a recapture penalty?

Doesn't matter
- Stripes77

Yes 6 games Rochester ( means more time)

2 games buffalo ( mean less time)

Yes it does matter

No such thing...
- jochfr

he's finishing up his BS program early at Notre Dame (this summer) - smart kid. If he stays at ND another year, he'll be taking graduate classes

I call BS on this. Not you, your source
- turbo044

I mean I wouldn't call it BS do you know how serious being in ICU is ?

I'm just praying he has a normal life after this I could care less about hockey for him

Yes 6 games Rochester ( means more time)

2 games buffalo ( mean less time)

Yes it does matter
- GERBE!!!75PTS

No meaning it doesn't matter where he plays as long as he signs...

He plays in Florida or Tampa and then goes down to Rochester either way
