If the Sabres get better bottom 6 guys, it won't feel like such a punishment. - PrinceChill
The Sabres have about 20 bottom 6 guys that are ready or not far from stepping in. I'll take O'reagan, Oglevie, Smith, Bailey, Baptiste, Wilson, and Malone as our bottom 6 come next season. Time to start scoring.

Heck yeah. Over Nolan, Josefson, Larsson and Moulson, I'll take them all day. No idea what to expect from Oglevie though.
I got busy talking to the chef about gluten free recipes lol
He was making it for some prospects - gerbe75pts
People have been eating gluten for hundreds of thousands of years, or maybe 6,000 years ago while riding a T-Rex, whatever you believe, without issue. There is absolutely no reason not to eat gluten, unless you are actually allergic to it, or sensitive to it, about 7% of the population, yet, when you subtract the people who thought they were sensitive to it and actually were 93% of people who thought they were sensitive to it were just full of poop and could easily tolerate it. Gluten free food tastes like poop, and often has less nutritional value due to the processing.
"A recently published study in the journal Digestion found that 86 percent of individuals who believed they were gluten sensitive could tolerate it. Individuals with celiac disease, a hereditary autoimmune condition that affects about 3 million Americans, or roughly 1 percent of the population, must avoid gluten. Those with extremely rare wheat allergies must also remove gluten from their diet. In addition, those with gluten sensitivity, a condition that affects 6 percent of the population (18 million individuals), should also avoid gluten.
That doesn't explain why an estimated 30 percent of shoppers are choosing "gluten-free" options, and 41 percent of U.S. adults believe "gluten-free" foods are beneficial for everyone, especially when many of those foods are often lower in nutrients and higher in sugars, sodium and fat than their gluten-free counterparts. And much of the growth in the category is coming from cookies, crackers, snack bars and chips."
"Results? Of the 392 patients, 6.63 percent tested positive for celiac disease, and two individuals (.51 percent) for wheat allergy. Some 27 patients (6.88 percent) were found to suffer form non-celiac gluten sensitivity. Based on this, 86 percent of those who believe they're sensitive to gluten can tolerate it without negative health consequences. And, when you account for those who had celiac or wheat allergy, some 93 percent of individuals who believe they are gluten-sensitive can tolerate it."
Budik and Hagel could get a contract, but given the proximity to the deadline I guess not. I'm actually a little surprised Budik didn't get one because of that almost .5ppg average he had in the W this year. 83pts for a defender is nothing to laugh at. Hagel had dry spells and an injury or two if I remember correctly, so less surprised there.
Budik won't ever be top4 pairing material, given our lack of contracts to give out, he may just be a casualty of the numbers game. - RhinoFan
The Sabres have 27 contracts free with only 10 players to sign for a full roster. let's say another 7 contracts with the draft which would be wildly optimistic. I think they have more than enough to squeeze a guy in if they wanted to.

On paper, that looks like a much quicker group. the previous bottom six couldn't skate or shoot. If next year's crop just can't shoot, that'd be an improvement. If they can shoot a little, its a huge upgrade.

Solid center in college, many teams would have taken him. He's 24 so hitting the prime years. Lets see what he's got. We know what Larsson and Girgs brings and it sucks, so why do we keep doing the same things over and over. Time to move on from the tanking. We need to change the culture this year and that means winning. Larrson, Girgs, Josefson, and Nolan can't be on your roster if you want to win.
“We know that, in the situations, OK, we’d like to get the ball up to the basket in a tie game prior to the buzzer sounding. What we have here is a young man grabbing an offensive rebound and running very quickly in the incorrect direction. This is not ideal.”
I enjoyed this, truly majestic creatures. ... - Pet.m.d.
I mean it's a perfect metaphor. The goat flops when scared/for no reason, just like the "GOAT" does, and the rest of them flopped, as in when they poop the bed at the end of the game.

Weird I thought was a lot less pro contracts to hand out. I saw we had like 33/50, but that's without resigning Samson, Wilson, Falk, Pilut, CJ Smith, O'Regan, Malone, Fasching, Baptiste, Bailey, Redmond, Lehner/A goalie, Johnson, Nolan or Pouliot. If Nolan, Johnson and Pouliot go, we'd be at 45/50. Figured with a couple FA signings or NCAA guys we'd have been maxed. I guess Falk or Redmond could still go too though.
I know you're well versed in these things...what am I missing? Where does the 27 come from?

No it’s not
Moulson is no longer an NHL player
He’s basically Kevin Porter at this point
Idk what number Porter wears,
but u think they wouldn’t let a roster player up here wear it?
I do
Also,
Not every player who’s signed attends camp
In Moulson’s case,
they very well may send him right to Rochester instead of having him come to the Sabres camp
There’s no reason for him to be there
-he has no chance of making the team
-he’s not a young player they need to get a look at
But again...
even if he’s in Camp, he will at some point be sent down
He might be under contract for another year, but he’s not ever gonna play a regular season game for us again
26 will be Dahlin’s if he wants it... IF - jdfitz77
Find me a non injured NHL vet under contract that doesn't attend camp...I'll wait
You're wrong, I have more knowledge here than you about him attending camp.
The Sabres can give him 26 but it would be in bad taste when they are paying a guy $5 million who has worn 26 his entire NHL career that is still under contract.

Facts, reason, and common sense have no place here.

Again...
Moulson is now “Kevin Porter”
Did he come to Sabres camp last year?
It wouldn’t be in bad taste at all
It’s just acknowledging that Moulson is done with our organization
He’s basically Wade Redden, when the Leafs buried him
Did he attend their training camp that next year? Idk
If anything,
It’s probably in poor taste to bring him to camp when there’s ZERO CHANCE he will play for us again
What possible reason is there to bring him to camp?
Also...
he’s most likely bought out anyways
#26 is fair game
Once we loaned him to another team’s AHL squad, that was the end of Moulson with our franchise
Sabres have let go of some very effective bottom 6 guys, and held on to, or picked up terrible ones. A problem maybe not talked about enough. - PrinceChill
Strange, it's almost like the Sabres were not trying to field a competitive team for some reason?
