NY could not fit both contracts...would be tough fitting Eichel alone.
- Leninthebuff


I think okposo is 6.5, but alot less against the cap?

What if we leave okposo out?

Lavoie: Gaudreau to be traded by free agency
- GERBE!!!75PTS


Can he play RW and not cost a 1st round pick?

In all seriousness, Bruins would have to do something like Jack Studnicka, Brandon Carlo, Krejci & a 1st round pick to even get to the table for Jack Eichel. There are other teams outside the Atlantic Division that could offer significantly better packages. Pipe dream for B's

I wouldn't even take a call from Boston plus that's a garbage offer to me. NY has the better pieces if it were to happen

I don't think you ever get back in a trade what a superstar is worth, and that Rangers deal is a HUGE risk (no one knows how these young guys will pan out), so if someone wants Eichel right now, they're going to pay through the nose.
- Powerslave


Solid post

I doubt the Sabres intend on trading eichel. Yet

Gotta pay to make the Sabres "change" their mind

I watched the Bills struggle to score offensively against a Texans defence in the playoffs that couldn’t stop anybody that entire year.

I do understand that the Bills led early in games and they were able to coast, there were a number of games where they had to come back also due to their offence struggling while the defence kept them in the game.

There were other games the Bills could have won by 20 and instead settled for close victories because they let poor teams hang around.

Perhaps the Points per game don’t tell the full story however it does tell a majority of the story.

Points per game tells " part" of the story.

Broads just crushed you on the last few posts.

Defense/special teams not scoring
Big leads

Thus part not the majority

1st, Fox, Mika

Hischier, Ty Smith, Nolan Foote, 7th, 2nd rounder

Add a little sweetener if needed. These are the only deals that get me to the table for Eichel

- SDSabre


I'd prefer the first deal, get an excellent center in Mika, Lafreniere and a defenseman.
I think it's imperative a center comes back in the deal and not just any center.

Salaries are 3,2 and 4.
From what I read from a NY reporter they'd probably need to ship some money out just to fit Eichel of course Mika wasn't part of the trade

That's all I'm saying.

They struggled in plenty of games, but those weren't games they intentionally sat on the ball

Same. The NJ deal wouldn’t be bad though. Two NHL ready high end prospects, a center in Nico who could be a solid #2, pick 7 (Think both Rossi and Lundell). Load up on young high upside centers: Cozens, Rossi, Lundell, Hischier.

How often do defence/special teams get points exactly ? Sure a couple of times a year ?

I guess the Bills d forcing three and outs and Andre Roberts giving the offence beautiful field position every drive isn’t enough I guess.....

Like Jesus what’s the Bills average field position start ? I’d bet there are top 5 if not top 10 the past 19 games

Here we go again?

Kakko sucks. As an 18 year old?

Tooph9 - " kakko sucks"
He cant throw the deep ball 🤔

Flaccoville- "kakko will never be elite"
I can hear it now

Flacco is all about winning, playing good defense, running the ball and an average qb.

Denver Broncos suck balls , enjoy that top defense a decade 😁😁😁😁

That sounds like u talking about Dahlin boss

Oh My.

Except Dahlin recorded the 2nd most points by a teenager in the last 40 years.

Whereas Allen didn’t really show he could be an above average passer in the NFL until three weeks ago.

I think two D TD's or a punt return would've put them over the 20 per game mark, which optically looks a helluva lot better than 19.6 IMO

Been absent the last few days. What’s happening now. Eichel is getting traded, why are the Sabres upset?

Allen looked great for 2.5 games this year
He looked lost in the 2nd half yesterday
That Pass interference call bailed us out of a game we almost choked away

Got a tough schedule the rest of this season
Hopefully Allen can keep up the good play
If he does,
THEN I’ll admit he’s our guy

And when he does it for multiple seasons,
THEN I’ll admit he’s a “franchise qb”

I’m not gonna get overexcited bc he beat up on Miami & the Jets, and idk if the Rams are any good or not?

After the 1st half yesterday, i was pretty psyched
But that 2nd half has me a bit concerned
We’ll see how it goes though
Go Bills!

Your like a little girl that pouts and stomps there feet when they don't get what they want. His 1st year he looked like a rookie with not much around him, he progressed nicely into his 2nd year, but still had things he needed to work on, you could see the talent and progression, nobody said they didn't and obviously he worked very hard in the offseason cause he has taken it to the next level. Just cause people want to see him keep on progressing doesn't mean they are negative or don't think he's good. He still has things to work on especially the fumbles, hurt us again yesterday. Just cause you think he's the almighty already doesn't make other people's opinions wrong.

Your Blond girlfriend 🐈 lol

14 3/4 is awesome 🙂

There's an unbelievable dog park off Niagara falls Blvd. By ellicott creek park. I think it's ellicott creek dog park?

It's been there for years, I just haven't had too many dog friendly (rescues) over the years.

Cookie dough loves everyone.
Especially kids and other dogs.
It's a pleasure bringing her out in public.
