Would you pay a 2023 6th for Michael DiPietro from Vancouver

I can't believe NY Jets QB Zack Wilson was having an affair with his mom's best friend!

If his mom's best friend is anywhere near as hot as his mom, I sure can.

Of course they don't ask him about DeBrincat directly, but it seems pretty clear we weren't interested. And, all this Kane talk seems nonsensical if Adams is an indicator.

I sure hope Charlie Lindgren can unlock his potential, else it's season 12 of no playoffs.

I said this earlier. Maybe Gibson simply likes the California lifestyle

Right, so we were getting up to league average in that sense. We were winning games with mediocre goaltending. Hell, we won games with a guy slightly younger than me. No shooting gallery. We weren't running out scrubs on D.

Ok, the new goalie (s) look at your age of slightly over craig Anderson and says "no shooting gallery" and " sabres didnt roll out scrubs"

Sign me up.....

I'm not sure if a guy signing a short deal ( not blocking prospects) wants buffalo?
Especially if he Hope's this isnt his last nhl contract

What's with the pk88 scoop from yesterday?

Could you throw out a % of likeliness?

Kane plays next year as a sabre?

I asked that % question, and he said 90%. So, I don't really get it and it doesn't line up what Adams talks about, so whatever. Take it as you will.

I think the vast majority of the guys out there (not Kuemper, Campbell) don't have the luxury of asking for term. At some point the music stops and there are only so many starting jobs.

That said, I still think that the addition will be via trade (especially for a guy that doesn't have a NMC). Again, I am not terribly concerned about how because I think we could throw all of these names in a hat as they are all similar (e.g. lottery tickets). I still think UPL is going to be the guy that takes charge.

I always ask about %'s 😉

I could absolutely see this trade happening, just as the Bill's season/ training camp for the Sabres starts.

Pk88 plays his contract out or we traylor hall his ass at the deadline. Probably get back at least 1/2 the assets.

Have Chicago eat 2 million, then eat as much at the deadline as possible. If we aren't playoff bound

Adams on WGR next.
- lacaprup

sounds like pilut is pretty much a done deal, waiting on paperwork

pysyk and vinny can come back on the cheap but if they want market value, nice knowing you


goalie, wait and see what happens as long as it's their term and dollar amount

Absolutely agree

My point orginally was : maybe our d corp is part of why guys (murray and gubson) said no. They may also like other opportunities better. Like staying in California or getting a better destination.

The college kids as well.

Someone keeps posting about the organization and the city sucking.. many other factors than residual"stank"

11 pathetic seasons

trading hall a few months after signing him

moving on from ror and eichel

unstable front office and head coaching track record from the organization

these hurdles will take time and winning to overcome those issues IMO

Yeah, that is what I got out of that convo with Adams.

My thinking is on pilut is that his KHL team is going to say they are releasing him or canceling his contract.

Then they might wait 6,8,10 months to actually do it. (Exaggerating the time line)

Terry’s gonna fanboy, it’s been mentioned nemours times on Terrys man crush. He will force the swing. I hope they don’t give up too much. Especially if no extension is in place and it’s a Hall like, TDL send em if the Sabres are out of contention.

Don't remember anyone posting about the City, but the Organization definitely has that Stank smell to it.
