If only the Sabres were to ever be in a position like the Avalanche to worry about the impact of paying their superstar big time money and how it might negatively impact their chances of winning additional cups...

Not sure what the Sabres have to do with it being a bad contract.

If it comes down to just one day, that’s ridiculous. There has to be a process to ask for/have exceptions made to the cut off date. (Same goes for the entry draft.)

Could just keep it simple, all D+2 are eligible. CHL doesn't deserve such special treatment.

Cederqvist has really turned his game around.

Okay now do Mcdavid


Its a bad contract for Colorado. Yeah they got their cup but they aint getting another when that contract comes into effect

- DirtyDan

how is it a bad contract

he is one of the top 5 or 6 players in the nhl over the last 5 years

someone was going to break mcdavid at some point for salary per season with the cap starting to go back up

Maybe.
They'll make it work, but they will have to displace some contracts with less expensive guys...
Erik Johnson is certainly a candidate.

I would kill you to be in their position though.

Really liking Kozak's game. A 4th line Pivot that has really turned into a good all around player.

He needs to step up big time.
Nope he does though...a 4th line with him as agitator and Nadeau could be alot of fun to watch.

Not sure of the exact positions, but
Pekar Kozak Nadeau would be very fun and they bring the hard to play against aspect rather than
Gigglessons try hard "skill".

Are we allowed to discuss prospect in a favorable light? Seems Bossy-Fitz has tried to cancel that discussion in here.

Wonder if Risto gets 3rd pairing or 7th Dman.
Torts is going to lose the rest of his hair having to play him

Nadeau is gonna be interesting to watch develop. With his improved skating he really turned into a vicious forechecker. With a bunch of later rnd picks looking good, the Sabres look strong. Just need the development to keep going the way it has.

It's funny to me seeing people saying stuff like "the rams and titans aren't good" and "they don't have any good skilled players" or "let's see how they are next week against miami". I'm not a slob on a knob when they're good kind of guy but let's get real here. The bills were up by 34pts with 5 mins to go in the 3rd quarter against an NFL team and sat all their starters. How often does that actually happen? If their foot was on the gas for the last 20 minutes what's the real final score? Would a 60 point victory be enough or would these clowns still act like it's alabama beating up on a D2 team?

Amen. I guess some people just always have to female dog for the sake of female doging. And some people just always have to female dog about people female doging for the sake of it too 😉.

I hear all the 90s Bills failure comments now. They just expect them to screw it up. But most commentators think they are the best team in the NFL right meow

It's a long season, they need to be healthy and get hot in january but to just flat out marginalize these two wins is Busch league.

No god no he got perma-banned or banned for at least a year and it’s a joke, believe me, I know the feeling.

Mike had a huge meltdown. Was upset people still weren’t wearing masks in their own home and didn’t get their 4th booster. Scamdemic really did a number on him . Couldn’t wrap his head around people not blindly obeying orders.

The funny thing is despite all his fear and 4 vaccines he’s had Covid 3 times
