LA is going to be in sell mode. They have no reason to take on a 30yo pending UFA and give Buffalo a pick or prospect.

He didn't talk about it publicly. Dreger is the one who broke the news, which means someone else inside the organization probably squawked.

Or his agent leaked it

The Sabres organization is very tight lipped

That's depressing
- jcragcrumple

yes

I would be he did do it internally and then being healthy scr said F uwe
- hubie

What does he have against Uwe? He was there last night wasn't he?

DO we have any more Nylanders? If we had another one we could get some nice deals done
- hubie

I don't even think there are any Varones left to trade.

Impossible. There has to be another bag full of them in the attic somewhere.

Not with Homie and 89 running around.

But we love that.

I'm thinking Dallas or CBJ.

Bogo and a 4th to Ottawa for Borowiecki. He's a tough stay at home LD who is also on the last year of his contract. Adding the 4th is for the salary difference. It would give us about $4m in cap space to make another move. Also, if someone requests a trade I prefer to send them to a place that they will not be happy.

Jack 100 is finally here

And VO Sign him to a long term contract in the summer

Probably his Agent did, as a mechanism to force Bott's hand faster.
Sabres have been pretty tight with the lid I'm told.

Sounds like you're really cracking down. How much do you have left and what is your degree in?

BTW: Took your advice about discipline. Ordered any of my meals with no bun or no starch. Damn the funny looks!

Have you never heard defense wins championships?

Olofsson is exactly as he's always been, streaky. He's going to go cold again this year, and probably heat up again after that.
- buffalofan19

Streaky as he's always been? Based on his 39 career NHL games? He wsn't streaky in Sweden nor Rochester. He on pace for 74 points

Everything on him was all offense no defense so theres that

and size

"I believe we haven't seen the best Zach Bogosian and my job is to find the best Zach Bogosian for our team so we'll continue to do that," Krueger said. "And after 10 games for him to slip a bit after such a long break and to need some breathing time to take another step up, that opportunity is there.

"The players decide what their ice time and their roles are as a team. Not I. ... I think a player that hasn't gone through training camp needs to also be patient before he expects to play his 'A' game."



- this is as close to a peepee slap as ralph gives

- Gr8daygo

Except it's a d for d swap, so it's not adding more d men. Additionally, it's a style of dman we don't have and most importantly it frees up $4m in cap.
Can't really see any negative aspect of a deal like this. What do you think they could realistically get for an oft injured, overpriced dman who requested a trade? Botts should just trade him for a 2C straight up I guess.

I agree with Bogo. I also request that he be traded.
