Someone isn't making the game, so I think it will be 11-7 again with ERod sitting and a 7 man Defensive rotation.
- thatsapickle


yeah we mostly play 11-7. Simply because they hate Erod. It's either bench Wilson and Erod and go 11/7 or bench Pilut and Erod and go 12/6. But they haven't really gone 12/6 because the talent isn't there to justify it.

Yup I mentioned that before. How is the current Sabres roster going to score without skinner or olofsson.

Eichel can only do so much

A lot of pedantic negativity on this board. Perhaps, just perhaps, there are some ideas that would be positive.

What, in reasonable terms, are we looking at next year? I thought the over/under for points would be 91. This year is trending towards that and I expect them to get there.

Assume top line is good with one of the following: a combo of Skinner or Oloffson taking that spot;
Fourth line is good. Complain about the offensive upside but I see heavy (not breakaway) speed that can wear on teams;
Middle six - who will they be? (note I expect Skinner/Oloffson and Johansson being there);
Can 6k be up to the big club next September?
Kreuger is a good coach.

Just wondering what you think should be done and Sega 94 trades are not allowed.



- TC4145

I’d expect 6K to play in Rochester.
BOGO out, someone on the roster, in.
Sam, Lazar, Larsson, Girgs, Ullmark brought back.
Someone like Jasper Fast brought in.

I dunno.

If you throw garbage in a blender, it doesn't really matter.

Hopefully we can acquire the right amount of points this week to inspire a move that will help the team.

Larry, Gus, Oakie, Samsonite, Wilson, Frolik(?).

Can defensemen score? I don't know if that's allowed, but it would be cool if they added in on the goals.

From Craig Custance, his trade bait board.

23. Zach Bogosian, Buffalo Sabres – Bogosian has requested a trade and that’s not an easy request to manage considering he has a cap hit of more than $5 million. “Good luck,” said one executive. But another source said a potential deal was still possible, depending on how much the Sabres were willing to take back in salary.

I was told it was easy to just ditch Bogo on the side of the road.

They should have given him the Joffrey Lupul treatment.

"Hey, Doc. He's still hurt and can't play, right?"

"Well, the medical evaluations show..."

"He's still hurt and can't play, RIGHT?!!!"

"Right."

Free pilut and put him with Risto ASAP.

That could be just for practice for yesterday.

We will see today.

According to ralph on GR that Frolik got in last night

I still think you can get rid of bogo for a Scandella type trade.

I wonder if Pilut is an "emergency recall".

Then he should be in the lineup.

I thought the emergency recalls have lesser cap ramifications.

If Luni is lurking around here he might be able to answer that.

But it's unnecessary, without getting into specifics.

And yes he should. They're undecided if he's going to play tomorrow night, but I bet he will.

Yeah but a late round pick for bogo. Later in the year when his cap hit is less / money owed is pretty low. I think we could make it work.
