Sabres should kick the tires on Wennberg for middle 6 center. He had a nice bounce back year after being bought out by BJs.

I swear Rivet on GR is simply nuts. He just said Alex Tuch was on the same talent level as Eichel.

Other than Lance Lysowski if they could fire everyone else at the Buffalo News and WGR 550 it would be ideal.

They need to tear down and rebuild the media too

Thatguy- people pay for entertainment. We pay for effort and excitement. Much easier to find some tough player's than win with regularity next season.

What happened as a kid. Did you get beat up by a hockey team?


We've been the softest team in the league, built exactly with zero facepunchers or tough guys. Your type of team.

4 out of 8 last place finishes, why wouldnt you want to try something different?

Russo is as plugged in as any team source can be. If Minny is truly out im nervous.

Russo is sharing what someone from the Wild specifically wanted out in the media.

They're not out. That's total bullpoop.

no he didn't

Said he can skate just as good as is on the same level talent wise.

I dont think Tuch is even the same zip code as Eichel.

They just don't want to give up Bjugstad which is understandable

Yeah Howard and the Bulldog are likeable but it’s a low bar because everyone else is so putrid.

If LA is refusing to put up Byfield, ditto Anaheim with Zegras, we need Minny more than they need us.

Predators UFA forward Erik Haula is “most likely” headed to the free-agent market, agent Jay Grossman tells me.

I think the Peyton Krebs slander is a little overboard. He is going to be just as good as Cozens is. However, Vegas doesn’t have anything else prospect wise that appeals to me.

Minny has 5 or 6 prospects better than Vegas’ second best prospect

He, like Friedman, are used as negotiation tools. Why would any team say they are out? That would only make it easier for another team to get a lower price.

Yeah Krebs is really good and people are hung up on Rossi because he's newer than Krebs.

Krebs is better. But Rossi + Boldy is better than Krebs and whatever additional prospect they would offer.
