Yes you did, anything to this rumor
- Buff36

Hard to pay 3 guys 10 mill each and still stay competitiv, we need a Center and RW more then another LW. Botterill is also concerned with Reinhart and his contract also.

Garbage rumor, Sabres aren’t involved in the Hall sweepstakes.

Too pricey, LW is our strength anyway, Hall wouldn’t extend here And all of our insiders here and reporters say we’re not involved. Don’t make poop up

What insiders said we aren't interested

White said this? Frolic is a RWer, which is good, 8 points is 32 games this year, 34 last year and 31 years old is real ugly. Expiring contract I hope?

Trade Scandella and bogo (for anything) and we’re good

True but it did work for chicago

I agree, just asking.

They talked to the Devils and it started with Mitts and a 1st.

Maybe I’m wrong- thought homey said it? I didn’t see your post previously

A while back I was told, Botterill didn't want to take on any big contracts until he has Reinhart taken care of.

Would take more than that - Stl is offering Thomas + and a 1st and Thomas is >> that middlestadt

I believe Homie pretty much said the same thing I said, I like Hall don't get me wrong but these contracts are getting way out of control but unfortunately this is the going rate. Mark Stone set that.

Also the rumor is that hall told the devils he wanted to test free agency.

So pure rental either way

That's why I said STARTED, let another team over pay for a rental.

True. In all honesty not sure why they’d trade scandella over McCabe. Scandella does have an expiring contract but he’s been tons better than McCabe this year

Would be nice to have a skinner sighting here

What in the world was Ullmark doing. That was awful

We can’t put too much on Botterill the Simpleton’s plate. He might actually have to get out a calculator to figure out the cap space, and that’s way too much to ask of a GM making 7 figures.

Nice turnover by scandella there. All around weak goal

Seriously though, at the rate 68 is producing, who knows what kind of figure it will take to sign him. Botts is probably making a good decision not adding a large contract at this time. With so many big contracts coming, 23, 26, 68, we will already need to make some room.

I was critical of Olofsson earlier this season. Have to eat some crow, he is really playing great.
