Botterill didn't want to talk about qualifying offers because they don't start until June 25, but he did say that Antipin still wants to play in North America.

You didn’t have any spelling errors, Garth is safe.

The Sabres can't sign newly acquired college free agent Brandon Hickey until July 1. He must be signed before Aug 15 or he becomes an unrestricted free agent.

also tweeted Botts isn't planning any buyouts

"He said things could always change, but he doesn't want any cap hits beyond this year."

He's a good bottom pair guy who we used wrong, as usual. I wouldn't mind having him back, but it seems we've got a jam building up on the defense now.

is he willing to sign a contract that allows him to play in rochester? if so i am all for signing him

thats basically a good idea

No thank you...

Cap Friendly

"It's worth noting that #Sabres currently have 3 active buyouts on the books.

Two of those (Leino, Ehrhoff) were compliance buyouts from 2014 which don't count against the cap.

The third buyout is Cody Hodgson, which actually counts as a cap credit of -$458,333 for this season."

No thank you...

Antipin was a swing and a miss. But I will say I don't blame Botts for trying. I would rather swing and miss then to go down looking with the bat on my shoulder.

No thank you...
- hehateme

The guy we should be saying no thank you to is Bowel-U.

I'm still a fan of Zemgus. For a 14th overall pick, he won't be that top 6 player we all hoped for but dang it... I like him as our 3LW/C as long as the AAV doesn't dramatically increase. He was our top scorer and 20 goal scorer at one time.

If i had to keep one of Larsson or Girgs, i would keep Girgs. Better wheels, less stupid penalties and a better name.

That's pretty interesting. Despite what I personally believed, it almost sounds like he's looking to spend a lot, in some fashion or another.

Call was made to the Sens regarding Hoffman

Give us the name. He must be shunned.

An ol' community shunning is in order.

Which when we apply the theory of relativity with velocity time dilation, it comes out to be 62.333% "good", repeating of course.
