Why is that viewed negatively? I think most have come around to the fact that he's a 2nd pair guy...which is what a 4 is?

It only sounds bad if one keeps pretending he's some norris candidate. Otherwise, being a top 4 is pretty good.
- Sabresfan-365

Well “barely a 4” means he’s more like a 4/5
When Risto is at least a solid 3

It was more a point of how he over-exaggerates his hate to ridiculous degrees

Dude I haunt Fitz’s dreams. It’s ok

What name are u changing your #10 jersey to?

I was in section 105 for the Arizona game 14 rows up.
Sold my seats and bought better last minute.


The "hit somebody " guy was there that night as well.
- Boss34

Everyone in 106 was super quiet last night
Felt like my friend & i were the only ones cheering
Was disappointing

Sorry, I have two friends it looks like.
- SABRES 89

3

At some point we were friends :

McKinley '89?

WNY Sports Arena?
- Boss34

Fixed. Get with the times

I would like to move 5 or 6 bodies off the roster to be able to target a few of these guys
- homiedclown

I think most of us would like to move out a few guys...
1 down at least

Rosen. Keeping the awful tradition going

Dude it’s whatever point suits them today.

Berglund was a cap dump on Wednesday, on Thursday he was expected to be our second line center, on Friday he was supposed to be a locker room leader.
- sbroads24

😁

This berglund situation could be the best contract bonus the Sabres have ever had.

It's like a free 2nd round pick.

He seriously had negative value and his contract was required to offset the great ror.

Who probably had few suitors

actually barely a top 4...means he's a top 4. In Risto's case he's "barely" likely because unlike most bonafide top 4s he's not really good all around. He's excellent in some areas, and just dreadful in others. Averages is out to about top 4.

I would think he would be one on the move if they blow it up

they signed ror and bozark to long term deals over the summer
- homiedclown

Yeah, true
Schenn is still fairly young though

With the talent they have,
it’s amazing they’re playing so poorly

Must all be RORs fault

Quiet game in general.
Except booing #3

That was fun

Have you been to the labatt house yet?
That's a really cool spot

Berglund was a throw in with negative value.

It's not that hard to understand?
- Boss34

There are those who claimed he was a good piece to add with his 17goals in 57games

However,
a slow winger that we wanted to play 2C was NEVER a good fit

I was hoping to meet up with 89 at the Vegas game.
Didnt happen.

Next year

Lol
That was actually kinda good

Not Shattenkirk good, but decent

Again though...
Peyton Manning>>>>>>>>>>>>>You
When it comes to opinions on young QBs

Little Sammy Watkins likes you as well

I agree

Some of us knew what was really going down.

Ror and his $ was a hard sell.

We needed to take back salary to make that happen.

Berglund being waived is an early Christmas

Except there’s a very different connotation when u call someone a “top4” vs saying “barely a 4”

It’s pretty obvious that the intent was clearly “hating” on Risto

Agreed, It is cool

me, broads, who are the other 3?
- Sabresfan-365

I always think Im in that group no matter what we're talking about.

Next year for sure.

As much as we banter back and forth I respect your opinion.

And you are really easy to mess with.....
In a friendly way....

Does this mean you’re finally admitting Berglund is awful???

I’ll still maintain we should’ve just kept him in that case
But i don’t really wanna bring that argument up again

i dont really believe that. I think it's hating the situation. Think it was said at a time before Dahlin? When Risto was being used like he was a defensive juggernaut?
