I blame Bettman.

Eichel should have been in Pyeongchang last night, not Boston

It works both ways.

Hopefully it's a 'two-fer" press conference:

1) Jack is OK and will only miss a few games
2) Kane has been traded for a boat-load of players/picks

Take it for what it's worth, but someone on FB said tsn was tweeting earlier that it was another high ankle sprain. Same ankle.

Agreed. Just sharing. After all, this site was born on speculation.

At least he skated off under his own will. Looked like a hyper extension which isn't always a tear, just a strain

With Chicago finally dropping off, and still quite screwed with the Cap...

Make a call about Pat Kane?

Maybe they won’t be ready to burn it down yet, but it might be worth finding out

I’d even consider taking Saad (6.0m, 3 more years) off their hands too, for even more Cap relief for them


I have no idea what a “fair” trade would be...
But idk if we’d have to give up as much as ppl think
Especially if we take Saad too
Giving them 16.5 mil in Cap room should count as a huge asset for them in itself


Chicago probably isn’t ready to do something like this yet though

Just a thought

Like I said, it was on FB. A member of the Blue and Gold Mafia responded to someone asking if there were any updates.

I asked him to provide a link and/or source of the tweet.

Lol

Only if Chicago is gonna burn it down

They got desperate last year trading Panarin for Saad (dumb move)

And shipped out Hjarlmsson for a crappy return

At some point,
they’re gonna have to tear it down
(Unless they wanna become Vancouver)

Saw this on Twitter from last night

Don Cherry just blamed the Sabres' bad powerplay on sending down Matt Moulson and called him a Top-5 powerplay threat in the NHL.

Seriously.

They would probably love to move toews though.
Pat Kane is still a top 5 nhl player

What a tough spot to be in:

Win a bunch of stanley cups
Pay the stars
Be in cap trouble

That's what's great about being a sabres fan, we don't have to worry about any of that bs.

I just saw the eichel injury. I hate to see players go down like that. After years of injuries playing my body is definitely feeling it at the age of 41. Like I said on Garths thread (🙄) hopefully Jack's been doing some yoga or that could be some serious ligament damage.

This is the cycle we’re going to see though with all teams in any league that plays under a hard salary cap.

Teams tanking to build, teams building, and hopefully succeeding, then going through hell while they work off the cost of acquiring and paying the champions.

I think they ask for Casey that’s a hard pill to swallow I think he’s going to be just as good but not the same hardware a ( come at me Anthony)

Sabres need to break thru at some point.
Still trading players for picks

Can't wait until the trade deadline, when we are trading picks for players.


I'm with you :

Despite the 30th place spot

I think the future is bright.

Jbotts would pick up Kane at the airport, while still on the phone.

*Casey is going to be awesome, but we're talking hall of famer for an 8th overall pick.1 year removed from the draft
