Realistically:


Lindgren
Greiss
Halak
Subban


I'd take the shot on Lindgren. The other three? May as well just sign Subban/Doogie and Tokarski to Roch and give UPL the job up here

I see lindgren being thrown out a lot. Is he a UFA or is he being shopped? He has very few games in the nhl. But of all those names I would rather give him a shot over the senior citizens and subban

UFA.

He very well could be a nothing burger, but like you said, take a shot on the unknown over the known in this case. Marty Biron has been all over the Lindgren idea for a while so he may know something about the Sabres plans.

Maybe you get a Hambuglar/Binnington season. Probably not.

We know subban sucks and the others are old ass men.

Edit. I think they are all younger than me. 😞

The Philadelphia Flyers are reportedly trying to trade Ivan Provorov.
Provorov had nine goals and 31 points in 79 contests while averaging 24:53 minutes last season. The Flyers have leaned heavily on him since he broke into the NHL. He does come with a $6.75 million cap hit for each of the next three seasons, which might scare off some teams, but he's talented enough that there should be a deal to be made here. The bigger question isn't if the Flyers can trade him, it's if they can get a return that they deem acceptable. Philadelphia's cap situation isn't great after inking Tony DeAngelo to a two-year, $10 million deal, so they might be motivated sellers.

They’ll want to clear cap space if there’s a hope of getting Johnny Hockey to come home. And, apparently, they’re in win-now mode.

CBS Sports has Buffalo Bills as the best roster in the NFL this year.

Wonder where the Sabres rank?

- BeadyEyedDouche

Probably at the bottom of the NFL list.

I would gladly take him off there hands and we would have them cornered if they want Johnny Hockey. I'm sure some team will line up for him.

It's going to be Charlie Lindgren. Get used to it.

I think Risto might be the least of their problems. Fletcher is going to finish killing that organization in the hooes of saving his job.

Is this another fake story? No disrespect meant - I can't remember who was the one that would drop in here with nonsense and then disappear.

It does make me happy to see Philly middle it to mediocrity.

Would make more sense to me then trading assets for him to get him a year early.

Really don't know, I would hope if this was to happen there was a extension in place.
