Granted, if Dahlin gets a Norris, I will not scoff at it.
- thatsapickle

Neither will I.

If you have Okposo as the trailer behind Mojo and Skinner, I think it could work well. Okposo has the same defensive wherewithal as Sobokta, so why not try it?
- thatsapickle

not that Okposo would be worse than Sobotka, but he has no scoring touch anymore. there have been a few chances that he should have netted or at least gotten a shot on goal that he wiffed

Neither will I.

I'll be the one.

Why try to change anything right now?

What they have going is working. We are scoring goals and have won games. It's not like the lines will never shake up but let's not play the whole "random guy on the internet knows better than the coaches in the building" card 3/4 games into the year?

because if you see something that could make you better you move on it..

Lazar is probably the call
Wouldn’t make sense to call up Tage or Asplund & have them sit

they would have to put sheary on ir, no cap space otherwise

pretty sure they can retro the IR date to yesterday, as Sheary would need to be on it for at least 7 days

Why would he sign? He's still on his rookie deal, which isn't much more than the veteran minimum right now. At the very minimum he gets a qualifying offer of $767,000. It makes more sense for him to wait and see what his leverage really is.

EK is already saying 2020 will be RFA Bedlam 2.0

Offer sheets everywhere.

As encouraged as I am out Oloffson, he's going to cool down. He's got 3 goals in 3 games, but all of them are on the powerplay, which is also operating at an unsustainable pace right now. He's going to earn a payday, but it's not going to be incredibly astronomical.

Hutton in goal

I have a close friend who is a Sharks' fan and he is so beyond pissed about it. He said that LaBlanc has been a black hole as well. Them letting Pavelski go in order to keep EK swede set the franchise back decades.

Little dramatic eh?

If the Sabres Give him 3.5 a year for 5 years I guarantee you he will take it usually when a young player sees money like that they don’t think twice

sobotka is playing with an elite goal scorer and a historically average point producer and has done (frank) all offensively



the team is the least dangerous BY FAR when hes on the ice, even though he has good linemates

if you think this is defensible you are purposely being difficult

Not if he has an agent that has an IQ above 40.

Wanna hear the funny part? It auto-corrected to that so I decided to leave it because it’s funny

Wayne , Couturier , Jarnkrok lots of players have signed before they “broke out”

he's had some great chances even strength too. PP ones are the ones that happened to go in the net.

A number of Sabres games are going to be on ESPN+ for all of you out-of-towners.

I paid the $5 a month for it to watch UB basketball games last year and thought it was worth it. Plus, when Disney+ launches, you are supposed to be able to bundle Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ for something like $16 or $18 a month. I might drop Netflix for that deal.

EDIT: the bundle is going to be $13/month.
