He's not signing anyone long term until Eichel and Sam are done.

Come on....even Murray said those are the priorities
- sbroads24

Doesn't mean Eichel isn't done tomorrow too.

all I got was Kane is signing an extension tomorrow

unless you think they are going into camp with moulson and deslauriers as their 2 top lw's

The elusive sign and trade?

I love it out here. None of that humidity like back home. Haven't crossed paths with 89.
- Pierceme69

It's only like 80 today, but it's also 80+% humidity and hazy as (frank). Gross. (frank) Florida in the summer and (frank) Vegas/Mojave where it's 124. Planes can't take off(safely) in Phoenix because there's not enough lift. (frank) that. Twice.

For real?

Great read Michael! I don't post much in here (lucky for you guys! )much,but I always I read your thoughts and opinions! And I love this deal imo it killed two birds with one stone! Adding a familiar veteran for scoring depth, and upgrading the dcore! Well done Mr . Botterill and congrats Buffalo on your new management team,coach and player's! If things stay as is!Buffalo will be in (playoffs ) and Toronto could be the ones on the outside looking in! And I'm sure all of you would be double pleased about that! best of luck with tomorrow and the rest of the offseason!

- Wetbandit1

We would know if he was close.

No one has a clue yet.

McDavid is going to sign, then Eichel will follow

The elusive sign and trade?
- Pierceme69

I don't think so


they had good talks earlier in the week


from what I was told

teams are calling on kane
GMJB is not making out calls on kane


but the haters will hate

WTF are you talking about? Why so cryptic?
- Wetbandit1

So Kane has multiple suitors I heard Anaheim somewhere today where they were interested, maybe Florida, who knows who else but there better be a LW, productive prospect coming back in some sort of package.

It's only 106 today. Don't be a baby.

I was just being a smartass.

I do think he signs very close to McDavid. Day or 2 after. They're just waiting on the final number and they'll work off that.

Let me guess, it only feels like 100?

Well yeah I get that but that doesn't mean Kane signs an extension just means he starts the year in Buffalo (for the record I am all for a Kane extension as long as its $6 million per or lower)

I'm in favor of keeping him. I know it's a gamble with his off ice shenanigans, but I heard an interview somewhere that people are starting to think he may finally be growing up after this last incident.

you may be a happy man tomorrow

If only Andrej Sejera were on our second pairing

You have 2 better defenders than him?

I would actually prefer to wait a year on Reinhart. I'm not sold on him. We didn't draft him #2 overall to be an undersized winger.

Yes

I just think they have a better plan then

vanek
moulson
girgens
deslauriers for lw

- homiedclown

I'll be happy for many reasons not the least of which to see some people lose it if the Sabres sign Kane

Yes
- jcragcrumple

One for sure. Maybe 2. Even if you had 3 that would make Sekeras a 2nd pairing , and no (frank)ing way do you have 4 better ones.
Christ, some of you guys have Nate B on your second pair already and he he sure as (frank) is not better at hockey than Sekeras.

right now, what is he?


8 years 5 mil per, if a deal was done tomorrow?

then again holding out a year worked for draisaitl and pastrnak
