Nope. Toews and Kane went to Bowman and said how much this missed Saad and wanted him back. Panarin and Hjalmarsson are both UFAs in 2 years and VHI didn't think they could resign them.

Traded a 2x6M Panarin for a 4x6M Saad who bring some almost equal offensive output but plays a far far better 200 ft game. CLB (frank)ed up

we agree too much lately


who are you?

He's gone.

It'll take a very nice Dman for me to like this. I'm not optimistic.

I'm interested to see how Panarin produces without Kane on the same line as him.

I like Brandon Saad, a lot, but he's not better than Panarin.

Seems Chicago is getting desperate to get back to where they were a few years ago.

It's not Patty Kane but CLB's offense is no slouch

I really like Kane as a player, but I think the Pegulas just want him gone.

He will certainly be seeing far fewer wide open nets on cross-ice passes. Who's passing him the puck on AZ?

CBJ::my bad!

Sign Campbell! Trade for Ladd! Trade for Saad! Bring us back to 5 years ago!

The problem is that if you are going to upgrade this defense to a point where you can win a championship with it, it is going to be expensive. That's where those four contracts come in. And that says nothing of the massive raise Eichel will get eventually. Okposo's contract is better than any of those guys. It still was way too early in the timeline, especially when you already had those contracts on the books.

Gorges could be gone at any moment if we buy him out. there goes 4+ million. Ennis could still be moved. Smart GM's know how to find a way to fit things in. I have faith in Bots in this regard.

Blackhawks said to focus on Oshie in UFA to play with Kane.

So sad for me.

yet they had the same 5 on 5 numbers last year


which is it?


if your playing with p kane, your 5 on 5 numbers should be better than what saad did with c bus



spin your way out of this

Lot of talk about NYR using space for Shattenkirk. They liked Yandle a lot, but were wary of term there. Someone like BUF makes more sense

Why buyout a 1 year deal? We can either be done paying him in one year or pay him the next 8 years?!

So dumb.


If anyone is bought out it's Moulson.

I believe the Sabres will be paying Gorges this year. My hope is that Fedun is our 7 D and we waive Gorges. That would be a a good use of 3 mil in cap money imo

Freidman is still beating the Shatts drum to Buf. Yeesh.

Wakaluk with the save, passes it to Hawerchuk who sends it to Andreychuk

To make room for a better D-man if we find one

So be it. My point is Gorges and his salary is the least of my worries.

Will never happen. No one's getting buried except for maybe Dlo. You don't disrespect a guy like that.

If there is friction between Gorges and Eichel, you can bet that Gorges will end up traded to a team that either needs to add salary or needs a veteran 7th or 8th dman.

Sabres now have 2nd most cap space in league with a whopping 25.5 million.
