it's as dead as Alan Arkin in here.




Probably too soon.

Bit too soon. But Alan won’t mind.

Where is everyone. Where are the rumors. Why is the NHL being boring.

Sarcasm?
- jochfr

No!!!! That was sarcasm too, btw

Actually I do like the hockey conversations here - a lot of passionate Sabre fans to share the pain with......

Has any team made their case to go out and beat the defending Stanley cup champions yet? I know it is still early but has any team improved that much to hold up the cup next year? Has the Sabres?

How do we feel about Ryan Graves?
- DirtyDan

LHD but I guess that doesn't seem to matter. He's big and moves well for a big man. We could do much worse. He'll probably be overpaid in UFA

Maybe NJ? Most other teams have been status quo or have gotten worse. UFA will change a lot of things though

Boy, some folks on here were saying Bear was the next Larry Robinson and our GM was an all time idiot for not trading half our farm for him. Now he's looking for a job.

Well none of that is true cause he was claimed off waivers not traded... would of been more serviceable than Bryson

Surprised Carolina Qualified Coghlan. Maybe Pesce is going the way they hoped.

Yeah a 5th is half are team, and they didn't Qualify him because he has a long term shoulder injury. Good Try though

Twas a trade? I thought Canucks claimed him

My offseason:
Trade for Pesce
UFA: Fleury, Kane (yes Kane) and maybe an under-the radar 5D? Not sure whom??
Trade Oloffson, Joker and UPL. Do anything with Bryson

Sounds like Tyreek Hill might have gotten himself into a little Physical altercation on a Fishing Boat. Being charged with Assault. If found guilty he could be in some trouble with the NFL for his past Abuse charges in KC.
- Buff36

Funny thing is if he didn't open his big mouth nothing would've happened. The guy wasn't going to press charges until Hill said who he was.

Mother frankin Ronnnnnn O'Neal

The one thing about the Sabres is, if they sign a goalie in UFA or trade for one, they have to trade UPL. They can try to send Comrie to Rochester and if he's claimed, who cares. UPL would absolutely get claimed if they put him through waivers.

4D - is there one in UFA that tips the scales, and if so, will the price be ridiculous?

F - I htiunk if they want stop gap veteran forward, there are plenty to choose from in UFA

Nope you are right, sorry , Conor Timmins was the one traded for a 5th.

He would've found out one way or another.

No apology needed. Was just clarifying.

Well Bear or Timmins wouldn't of hurt at that time for a 5th or the farm as was stated.

I think we had some great topics for the new blog

There's rumor there was even a secret draft within the past 48 hours.

I'm going to have whip out the ChatGPT soon.

Decent looking but not really my “type”

Is bear worth a flyer for the bottom pair? Is he better than 🃏

He's got a bad shoulder injury, that's why they didn't Qualify him. Might not be ready until December January

No apology needed. Was just clarifying.
