Antti Raanta Is 28 was thinking he was older pretty good age for two year contract

I like that. Is raanta ufa? Surprised he wasn't moved at the deadline. They just traded and signed for the kings guy.

Hopefully it hurt raanta's feelings a bit.

I'm ok with Chad too like Michael mentioned a few blogs ago. Nice guy, you know what your getting. Pretty sure he knows the back up role. I think the sabres are taking a real look at him currently. 3 of 4 last starts including tonight.

He was in massive trade rumors to the Islanders But like you said he might’ve been pissed off that they traded for a Goaltender and signed him right away

is this thing on?

evander kane
5 points in 3 games for the sharks +4


rick nash
3 points in 4 games for the bruins 0 +/-

Hopefully they sign him But I still believe the condition is still on the first pick correct they could move it to 2020?

Deal still bugs me oh well

wikipedia is honestly the best for this stuff

"Buffalo will receive a first-round pick in 2019 if the Sharks qualify for the 2019 Stanley Cup playoffs and they win the Stanley Cup in 2018 or if Kane re-signs with the Sharks for the 2018–19 NHL season. If the Sharks fail to qualify for the 2019 Stanley Cup playoffs and one of the other previously listed conditions converts the first-round pick will defer to 2020. Otherwise this will remain a second-round pick in 2019"

I didn’t realize it was a condition to make the playoffs next year .

Damn this thing is just getting more confusing ha

So they have to win the cup and make the playoffs next year for us to get a first round pick ..

Or Kane is signed

Damn

there is a condition on the 2019 4th rd pick we got as well


if the sharks want, they can keep the 4th and send up a 3rd in 2020

There must have been ZERO interest to take this deal for the sabres. Each time jbotts called to confirm the trade, the sharks added on more stipulations. We got what we could .

See. This why the NHL should intervene and be sure both parties get a fair deal.

IMO, if Kane does well enough for them. They should force the Sharks to provide their 1st to the Sabres. Taking into account the Sabres situation. You know, we stinking up the league. Should be that way for any team in a similar situation.

We now hold SJ's 2019 2nd round pick. That pick becomes a 2019 1st if SJ wins the Cup this year (2018) or resigns Kane. If either of those conditions are met, we get SJ's 2019 1st round pick.

Now because they wanted to lottery protect their 2019 1st round pick, they have the option to defer it to 2020. If they take that option, we automatically get their 2020 1st round pick guaranteed. And, the 2019 4th round pick we received becomes a 2019 3rd round pick.

What if Kane gets in trouble between now and the playoffs, would we have to give the pick back?

Should we have kept paying Chicago for Hasek?

Just because we need a full rebuild doesn't mean you have to go down my throat.

Ok, that's DEFINITELY illegal in Dubai.

And they traded for a goaltender that was proven in the playoffs and cost them so little

nanny society!! the sabres agreed to the deal they have to live with it.. can we go back to Winnipeg and tell them we got a raw deal you owe us more? no.. life has consequences..

i am glad i am not the only one who thought that was ridiculous.. there is still hope for humanity..

Probably why tickets are on stub hub for $12.50 each

The other game is at like $56, I'm not sure why this one is so cheap.

I was talking about him being "cheap". He cost a 1st and a 2nd.

And he's not that good.
