And Anderson may be old, but he's been in the league a long time. I'm glad they got a guy like him to mentor UPL along instead of trying to trade assets for another Lehner.

Anderson and UPL will be sharing the net this year, whether anyone here likes it or not.

Spot coffee was good, you were right haha

Spot is excellent. I would always get a large latte and an avocado toast when I was back home. But there are numerous excellent cofefve shops down here in Columbus so I'm pretty set in all honesty.

I know they were furious when it was reported he was on the ice.


Like throwing a person off the roof furious.

No poop? That's something, I figured he could practice, just couldn't dress for another pro team outside Russia.

Dell's pads indicate he thinks otherwise, but I think we'll see a dose of all of them fwiw. I'd be happier with this though, hope you're right.

I've never heard Adams sound more apathetic about anything Sabres related than when he was asked about what Eichel's doing and if he's skating.

That two way contract suggests that his full time stay shouldn't be expected in the slightest.

Anderson was signed as a mentor first, and a guy who could share the crease with UPL second.

Kyvyn's top goal is to get guys the development they are ready to face, for as much time as possible, to weed out the have or have nots.

Accidents happen.


There’s a 1000 different scenarios where he could make his neck situation worse.

They were blindsided when they heard he was out skating/taking shots.

AKA he didn’t have permission.

18 year old Russian hockey player died last year getting hit in the side of the head by the puck, right on the ice.

Let's say a puck hits him in the back of the neck. Rare, but, stranger things have happened.

Not to mention the high-speed and wear and tear of the sport.

I would have sued him for skating without permission if I were the Pegulas. Gotta pay for that yacht.

Little Boston mitch.

I don't think so. I think he wants to play somewhere next year that isn't Buffalo, and his current agents aren't making it happen.

he may need to play in buffalo to get out of buffalo

Domi was traded a month after he fired his agent.

Werenski and Pettersson both fired their agents during their RFA talks. (one fired Brisson, the other hired him)

Jack Roslovic fired his agent and he was traded a year and a half later.


Nolan Patrick fired his agent and was traded a month and a half later.

- TheSabresTaco

i believe fusion surgery will get him back sometime around the olympics...april 12 is the trade deadline...in those few weeks, if eichel is ready, he can gear up for a trade...or if he's not, he can play out the season and get traded next off season...

pure speculation, obviously, but it is a possible scenario

Thing is, you can't force him to get a surgery he doesn't accept. He clearly doesn't accept fusion (at this point). It's a standoff that only the Sabres can win for the next 10 months. Or perhaps the next five years.

It is in no one's best interest to drag this for 10 months, 5 years, or one more day.
