That’s a
Hasek kind of save

what does okposo have to do with all the hits in the game


you cant say for months grit is not needing in the nhl and then try to dismiss 80 hits in 40 minutes of hockey

get out your spider hole and watch the damn games

Hey, whatever works, moving forward. They finally lost me this year. But I'm good, and somewhat optimistic, with this hire.

They could've just promoted Appert, or gone the "hotshot" assistant, which imo would have been a disaster.

is there anything more sabres blue than Lindy?


serious question

I’ve seen lots of goals scored.

Score goals, hope UPL/Levi are up to the task, rest will take care of itself

New Broncos jerseys. Satanic: yea or nay?

I think you clearly need to attack more like the rangers, bolts and panthers vs being a perimeter team like the caps for the playoffs

Speed and skill is what you need.

Those skilled players actually start to hit

Totally agree

he played 37 games that year and backed up the vezina winner

Swayman's body of work is miles better than UPL's.

Ullmark is a better comp. He got a 1.3m bridge, followed by a 2.6m 1 year deal.

He's worked for the Sabres in every decade of their existence, so, no.

37 games is not the same as 54 in a season

crazy if you think 6k is getting 2.6 mil

it's a different cap vs 5 years ago and 6k has better numbers this year with a bigger workload

The flyers gave their rookie 3.75 with way less experience.

UPL is going to ask for more

I provided the comps and where I put him.

If it went to arb, the Sabres would have a strong case for 2.6m (based on Skinner). UPL's should be 3.75m. Pretty easy to find a happy middle ground.

I think if adams gives him 3 year 12 mil or 2 year 8 mil

they sign it and focus on hockey

I think if Adams low balls him, it drags out

You forgot the whole 5 years ago as a major part in this comp.

Salary cap has gone up since then.

you can provide all you want


way off base for the 2024 nhl market though

You can call him a rookie, but he's also a 27 year old pending UFA. He's not a comp.

and 6k's hip is finally healthy, which you know his agent will use in conversations

Why is UPl only asking for 3.75 and not 5?

Is it just because other goalies arnt making as much?

Arb case UPL is asking for minimum 4.5. Even that number puts him as the 22 highest paid goalie in the NHL.

that's saying girgens is worth more than peterka though


which is not the case

- homiedclown

Does Adams know what “low ball” is? Seems if he wants a guy he just pays them, even if it is a little high…. Gus, Jost, Samuelson, Cozens all got decent to above decent money

Why would UPL do them any favors?

Two years ago they were done with him.
Tried to replace him with Levi this year. Plan failed only for UPL to save their asses.
