👀 Bears going to wear orange helmets for a couple of October games
https://twitter.com/Chica...or-october-182256826.html


12 teams will wear alternate helmets this year, including Cincy’s white tiger look.
Bills aren’t one of them, as far as I know.

That looks like the Chicago Browns to me.

And the Bills rolling with the 90s throw backs would be cool…

The rumor is. That the red helmets will be announced soon
- Sabretooth9

I thought those were so cool when they first wore them, the white helmets were “boring”. Then, over time, they started looking more orange-ish red (to me).
Now, I really like the white helmets better, the (best in the NFL) logo pops on there so much better than on the “red” helmets.

they only made the switch to the red helmets so old Fergy 12 could tell who to throw it to, right?

I would have liked an all blue helmet with a red Buffalo, something we have not seen before

Maybe the banana understands the reason for not signing/ paying a goalie longterm?

Seems pretty obvious after hearing about levi in development camp. He was incredible.

Imagine being an option to sign anywhere, why would you sign with a team like the Sabres?

Speaking of busts, Owen Power is Wheeler's top ranked drafted prospect.

Only played 8 games so far, clear bust. Savoie has only played 8 less. Let that sink in. Bust. But Savoie is a bust too.

It would be the sabres 2 nd
Potentially 33-38

Do you think they would get a better offer for him right now?

Does he beat out Olo, Tuch or Okposo?

Will his Year 3 be significantly better than Quinn's or Peterka 's year 1? If so, by $3.1m worth? I realize he is a good 200' player, I just don't see the big need.

I hope that this season will provide more clarity on the F positions...and ultimately will enable them to upgrade a couple of positions by consolidating the existing prospects.
The difficulty now is which prospects should stay and who should become bait in trade packages.

Power, Savoie, Quinn, Krebs.

Alex Turcotte barely made HM.

or just trade ryan johnson and our 2023 2nd round pick

that gives them an early second in 23 and a late 2nd in 24 if johnson does not sign

if Kakko gets it together, it would be scary having him and tage on the same line

I'm sure he is not. He will be 29 when his deal expires and Quinn will likely take over his role if all goes according to plan.

I think the opinions of Canada vs Florida for chunker make sense.

As for Buffalo. Some players like playing here because they are close to home or families have an easier time going to games

Owen power for example has gone to a few Sabres game as a kid.

Skinner also lived close by too and has family come visit and go to games

So yes Buffalo isn’t better than Canada.

But Calgary vs Florida. Massive difference.
