He played just about the entire game. I think they benched him for the last few minutes.

I'm losing it. Literally, I thought he was already in the box. You're right of course.

It would be roughly:

1st to take Okposo
1st for Stone
2nd and Nylander for Dzingel

I'm good with that - If Stone & Dzingel re-signed.

- jcragcrumple


You do realize the Sens owner is as cheap as they come. So he ain't taking on the Okposo contract 4 x $6M after this season. Okposo is finished as a top six forward

If Stone won't sign a long term deal with Ottawa. The only franchise he has ever known. Do you really think he'll sign with the Sabres right away?

The Sabres are on the right course. Any trade of futures for a short term fix is a big mistake at this point

So Buffalo has 3 1st rd picks this coming draft. Curious if they will try and use one of them to try and get a player to help them down the stretch.

Players have worked hard and are right in the thick of it. In my opinion - Botterill owes it to the players and coaches to give them a few more bullets and try. It has been way too long.

They need a second line centre.....Mittelstad is good but will need time.

Can they package up someone like Nyalnder and a first ( might cost more) for Duchene assuming he would sign an extension? Maybe add STL's second in 2021

Need to be bold. I could see this team surprising if they get in and be set up for the future. Now need to try and get rid of Okposo's salary

- Revised12

I agree 100%

The Legend and Erod kinda suprprising

- Der Kaiser


I know there is alot of Tage love around here...but this doesnt surprise me at all. I feel like every game he either takes a shift off or makes an absolutely stupid play this inevitably ends up in the back of our net.

I am hoping he will become a positive contributor. However, at this point, he has the "toe-drag missle" move, and its a hell of a shot, but he misses the net a hell of a lot.

For now, he's a one trick pony and the trick needs to be a lot more accurate.

He needs to not be saddled to Sobotka or the 4th line.

I don’t think he’s playing well lately, but this organization is fascinating on how they do their young players no favors.

I don't see many toe drags


does one in 10 games count as a 1 trick?

I apologize on behalf of the entire community that you had to repeat when it was clearly there already.

I talked to the mods about the other poster not reeding.

They gave him a few games up toward the top of the lineup and he puked on his chance.

Early in season he was said to be very receptive to being coached up when he was in the box. I think this "sit down" may have the intent of getting him to do it again in the hopes of taking development to the next level.

People like to suggest sign-and-trade deadline deals. I have no idea why.
BINGO!

Yeah, they're probably getting new road jerseys next year, which allegedly might be grey.

Tage might toe drag some nachos in the press box tonight.

Since they gave him the chance with eichel for 15 minutes, it's been bad news
