Why were the Sabres not in on that Monahan dump? Mono and a 1st?? For futures?

He had a Modified NTC is my guess.

Well they might have to pay people down the road. Even though they should have so many players on 1st contracts or ELC's that the cap shouldn't be a problem for a bit.

Skinner-Eichel-Tuch
Kane-ROR-Olofsson
Vanek-Reinhart-Pominville
Foligno-Larsson-Okposo
Cozens
Rodrigues

That's what I've got for drought forwards


Edit: Vanek makes the 10-year cut

Edit 2: I forgot Thompson

I would say Lehner but he is broke.

Real $. Budget is below the floor atm. If they were willing to spend, there was value to be had.

Oh I agree, think they missed a opportunity this year but I have been told that the money is needed elsewhere Maybe.

Sabres NHL roster is at about 56m. Josh Allen is about 47m.

A+ for the Flames

There is a chance the bills will have a higher attendance (including playoffs) this season than the bills.

A++ if they trade for the desperately wanted around the league, Kyle Okposo.

Mini Elliot Friedman disagrees….

MrBeast drafted him in the 7th round…so you know he’s important.

Who said he was desperately wanted around the league. He's obviously well liked around this Organization. Has he lived up to his contract, of course not. But he brought leadership to this young team last year, and they all praised him for it.

wow, so whats the excuse to why we didn't land a first round pick today?

We might have to pay some players in the near future or maybe we won't but we really don't know so we can't spend any money just in case.

if they extend Okie to anything GMKA should be fired. you don't sign a clearly declining player just he can be the DAD on the team. he will be 35 by the end of the season, Hard Pass just to make him a captain. If anything I hope he retires and he could come on as a assistant coach or something like that.

Also, you don't need a C on your chest to be a leader. if you want to make him an "A" fine with me, Girgs, Okie,"A" Tuch "C"

We have NO Room on this roster for an aging player, we have too many talented players waiting in the wings.

Now if they are signing a Pat Kane that is a much different story.
- hehateme

Okposo had his best season and was 3rd in the team in goal scoring and 5th in points.

I'd say that's not being just the team "dad".

For me its the player... I like Okie, I really do, but I am not wasting a roster spot on a 35 year old penalty/checking line bottom 6 forward when I have younger faster cheaper players waiting in the wings that can do the same.
- hehateme

Thinking a rookie can effectively fill the defensive role Okposo plays is both highly unlikely & also likely going to stunt that kid’s development

What? Monahan is on the last year of his contract. You seriously thing we might get close to the cap this year? Bizarre response.

690 for Pujols. 45 games to hit 10 more. 25 more would be insane. We’ve really got to see some Centurial talents in sports.
