Johansson was NOT their 2nd line center, he played 3LW

Conor Sheary had 2 assists playing with Crosby and missed the net on a penalty shot.

Jesus, you're so desperate to defend Jason Botterill. Mojo had no business being a 2C and Sheary had no business being a 2RW.

This is an accurate post.
Good job!.

Right.... You're making my point. We didn't even remotely put them in those spots.

So how on earth is that a "C/D acquisition that **We expected** to produce like a A/B player?"

We didn't acquire Sheary to be on L1. He wasnt on L1. End of story

- sbroads24


We had Mojo centering Sobotka on line 2. Thats the same damn thing. Sheary there doesn't make any difference. It's a bunch of players who have no business being there

I think right now it goes to MacKinnon


theodore could get it if vegas wins

- homiedclown


When vegas eliminates Colorado, mac loses the ryan o smythe trophy.

Theodore doesnt have the recovery rebound life story of lehner. They generally give it to top centers or goalies?

Defenseman are rare if I recall?

A sword stabbing maf in the back , with the coaches name on the sword.

Crags - you were spot on with Jbotts.

Slowly we will all see the light.

Crags your +/- is even .

+1 for jbotts

Recovered lehner is a solid confident competitor.

Being a Sabres fan scorns opinions on ex Sabres.

Keith, Nieds, Lidstrom, Steens in the last 20 years, what a list


Leetch in the 90s


MacInnis in the 80s


Robinson and Orr (2) in the 70s




all I got from this is $10,000 on Theordore not to win it now

No I don’t either. I’m saying I don’t think both would happen, but like Anderson and Tuch for us. So chose to keep Risto and acquire Anderson with a second in 21.
- SDSabre


Why though?
Sabres are running short of draft picks to fill the pipeline.
Montour, Risto, Joker and Miller are all redundant as 2RhD's.
Don't need to retain 3 of them, 2 is just fine for the time being until Borgen can take the 3RhD.

If not used to acquire F's likecTuch or Anderson, what are you saving a $5.4m redundant asset for?

Btw, the Instigators made another solid point I thought of yesterday...Touch's play in the PO's is making it much more unlikely he is the on moved.

I'd say CBus is much smarter than that.
When contract negotiations start, it will get ugly fast.

Johansson is the example I agree with. Berglund works too.

That's 2 players in three years and the only reason Johansson is there is because Berglund retired and Mitts wasn't ready.

It's really just the 2C spot where it's been a cluster(frank)

And a top-6 wing spot

And the 4th line being a 3rd line

And Hutton being a starting goalie

And Risto still being the 1RD

All positions where they're playing over their heads

Services = missed

Do you think the cops knew about his warrant? What the warrant was for? And as it states it includes a firearm and he was going to the car and looked like he may be reaching for something would you take the chance knowing he has a firearm based on the warrant and not listening to orders to stop?

Also 3rd degree sexual assault

Two wrongs don't make a right.

Police need yearly training, not just one very short training and be done.

People also need to realize that you cant do whatever you want without consequence.

This did not justify this man being shot/murdered. Should have been detained by non-lethal force and cuffed by. But ill wait until the whole story comes out before passing judgement.

Very rarely are there instances where the police need to be playing executioner.
