Detroit after he’s bought out

What’s his cap hit
- Sabretooth9

5 for the next 4 yrs

Haven’t heard this, but I’ve been hoping that trying to move Stralman was on Zito’s list. Can’t see why they’d add Krug while Yandle is still a Panther. But, Idk what new GM Zito may do. He is earning more trust from me with the start he’s off to, though.
Rumors persist that FL is in on Pietrangelo, too.
I’d hate to see them move Weegar, & I don’t think they will move Weegar. But, if Pietro actually signs here, who knows what could happen around that.
- Ratsreign

If they did move Weegar, what would they be looking for in return, realistically of course.

But if he does stick with Eichel and then gets his huge deal, that's when we move him to the 3rd line

Buy high sell low baby. It's the Sabres motto!

EK saying Columbus may offer sheet Barzal.

Its girgs for 2.2 or kahun for 4 million?

Let's not confuse the parameters.

He had 10 penalty minutes last year? What's this have to do with fighting?

He's a try hard player and I pay $ to see some effort.
12 goals under coach ralph - the current coach

I want a difficult team to play against.

Kahun is not difficult to play against.

If they were winning your way, i wouldn't complain.
But they have been losing your way.
Soft erod type guys

Remember when we had John Scott AND Zemgus Girgensons AND Chris Stewart AND Patrick Kaleta AND Marcus Foligno AND Mike Weber AAANNNDDD Steve Ott and were absolutely pathetic to watch and finished last?

Your way sucks too

There's an actual possibility that he was going straight to arb and earning 3.5+ and that would screw with the Sabres' plans to add a more effective winger.
- TheSabresTaco

That actual possibility you mention is roughly the same of low fat milk: 2%.

I’ve heard false as they’re just opening money for current players Luc-Dubois but what do I know

or, perhaps, kahun chose free agency?
- Michael Pachla

He didn't choose free agency until after the Sabres did not qualify him.

No more like, what does EK know

- kingcong39

you're right...positioned himself for a good shot at being able to hit free agency...

do you know what kind of price tag they were bringing to the table?

Not at that cap hit.

Simmonds to Toronto

Not at that cap hit.
- dadeadhead

I’d claim him even with it if it guarantees getting him.

Having Eichel Cozens and Johnson as you top 3 centers sounds pretty good to me

I mean, I guess. He did say earlier that he loved his role with the team.
- TheSabresTaco

I am sure he did, but when he received his offer from the team of $1.4M per, I bet his tune changed quite quickly, and I can't blame him.

Remember when we were good? Those glorious 2 years out of the lock out. Man those were fun times.

As far as I know you aren’t PR for the Sabres so I wasn’t in need of an explanation

This team routinely does things that are hard to explain
- sbroads24

Taco is often PR for the Sabres up until around the 30 or 40 game mark in the next season when it's clear they truly suck yet again. Then he turns into us.

man, a little harsh this afternoon...

it's hockey...nothing more, nothing less

$1 million one year deal for Bobby Ryan

EJ Hradek is horrible as is Brian Lawton.

ryan 1yr/$1M with the wings
