Need to find a good 2 or 3 year stop gap option at goalie, goaltending hurt us this year.

or just find a way to bury hutton in rochester next season

ullmark was fine

Why all the sudden is everyone turning their backs on sam?

He had 3 shots last night- on net
- Boss34

It isn't all of a sudden.
I have always questioned if this team could win with Sam being the 2nd best F.
However, I don't run him out of town like you want to constantly.
I'm only trading Sam for a very specific need if greater value to the team AND I want the right side adequately stocked as well.

See the difference?
Big difference from your constant bashing of him.

the lack of effort from this team the last 3 games, does not bold well for Ralph

No practice today, go home

I agree, should have explained better, good option to split with Ullmark.

Yeah we have pieces other than Rhino that can be used to upgrade this team. Fix the 2nd and 3rd lines and goaltending. Rhino and Jack work good together, fix the real problems.

Yes, I do. And why do I have to - or is this a threat to all who post more than the Sabres.

Sanders wants Gov't control and NOT free market - Communist.
He is rich making his money as a civil servant and
His wife destroyed Vermont College - which statement is wrong?

So, keeper of all things free speech, which am I not allowed to do, make statements with truth in them or have an opinion different than you?

It's called talking sports And escaping those things you see and hear everyday

Someone said earlier that Risto WAS being shopped..


Never was being shopped and isn't being shopped now.

At this point they Waited to long he won't be worth much this time around

Should have moved him in the summer he was ready to go then

less of a lie then the only reason botts traded ror in a hurray was to get tage

It's a lie ristolainen asked for a trade after the season and teams started backing out when the price was Ridiculous

And let's not forget how shocked he was to still being here at the start of camp

Not always he case on this board. I responded to something that was posted about Sanders. Apparently, I am wrong but all those that came before me are ok.

He looked unhappy that he was still here

Not arguing one way or the other, but mild facial expressions is not a valid argument.

Seems like the feeling Botts is canned by the end of season is greater than 50%.

you really need to read what 89 and myself have been saying

I will keep it brief and simple for you


1. botts has never shopped risto


2. teams have asked about risto, many


3. botts only had 1 offer that was close, tampa, and they did not want give up a certain player that was necessary for there to be serious talks about moving risto




4. again botts has NEVER shopped risto

Oh no, that's terrible

a player asks for a trade so he must have been shopped by botts


like last year when jack was pissed after a loss and said get me out of here botts obviously shopped him the next day

gerbe logic

Oh no, that's terrible
