Brian Gibbons has been put on waivers.
Gibbons has two goals and five points in 43 games against Anaheim. He hasn't played in the AHL since 2016-17, but that's probably where he's heading if he goes unclaimed.

I like the cut of your jib. Drink it straight from the bottle

No need to be a barbarian.

Pour it in a glass, over a very large ice cube, and open it up with a dash of bitters.

It's like putting a little makeup on a beautiful woman.

Aho, Rantanen, Point, Marner, in that order of importance for the team.

Haha, in an ideal world, Aho would be the number offer sheet target, but in reality, he's probably behind Point and Marner due to those team's cap situations compared to Carolina.

The Sabres badly need to find a player like Aho in the 2nd round or later. It would be a massive help to the team.

Off topic, but...

McDavid on pace for 122pts this year
Eichel at a 94pts pace

Lots of guys ahead of Eichel too
Has scoring gone up this season?
Looks like about 20-ish guys could break 100pts

- jdfitz77

matthews 27 goals in 43 games this season, 101 goals in 187 nhl games

eichel 18 goals in 53 games this season, 91 goals in 262 nhl games



but don't you dare say matthews is a little better than eichel


side note, this would be a perfect time for jack to bury 3 goals

If we would have traded Pu and a 2nd for Skinner and a 3rd Botts would never ever ever be on the hot seat in his entire life!


- Stripes77



That would've been little more than rubbing salt in the wound when you're already missing a leg from the Pu, 2nd, 3rd, 6th for Skinner. A 3rd going either way is nothing.

What's wrong with having Joe Thornton 2.0

Other than having no cups

I posted their PPG last night. Matthews was on a 98 point pace and Eichel was on a 94. So Matthews is 4 points better then a Eichel and plays on a team with twice the talent and four times the PP arsenal. You put more merit into goals, perfectly understandable. I watch both on a consistent basis and even the leaf buddies I have would take Eichel over Matthews.

it's splitting hairs of course

but I think the only way Jack gets in the same conversation nationwide is for the sabres to take that next step in 2019-20


all bets off if the leafs win the cup of course
