Michael Pachla: Sabres in Vancouver before a long, 10-day break

First

Hey guys, I don't ever post anything like this but if you can take a look at something my 5 year old daughter is trying to do here down in Orlando

Now to read the blog

I don't have number to back this up but it seems that when Ullmark plays he gets much better offensive support than Hutton

I am on Amazon now stripes. Also added you.

The Longwood address is correct?

I got 3.56 g/gm in his 16 decisions...they're averaging 2.85

dreger just said JB is working "aggressively" to get a skinner contract.

Could be he is looking for a quick resolution so he can lay the rest of his plan.

I think if we get skinner signed soon or have an agreement to sign after the TDL the sabres could make a play for a younger forward with term at the TDL

Interesting info on Ullmark. He doesn't wow me either, but look at the win record...maybe he's better than we think, maybe the team plays harder in front of him for some reason (could be they think Hutts will bail them out more???)?

Tough to argue 10-3-3 shouldn't get you more time...

Stripes, One Fancy Feast Variety Pack on the way.

We just had our cat escape and hes been missing for about two weeks so I couldn't pass up supporting something like this.

It makes sense Botts needs to know what he's looking at there before he makes any serious moves. Prudence and Patience. Not that I like waiting, but it's for the best.

I agree

He needs to have all of his ducks in a row before he starts making moves

Skinner is obviously a big piece of his plan

Faith in humanity somewhat restored today. Enjoy the Turkey Fancy Feast.

Hopefully he gets it ironed out in the next few days. This 10 day break should give him time to focus on that and making calls.

What's your "winning" contract for Skinner?

A true winning contract for me would be a 6 year deal around $7.5 million per

I would be happy with anything under a $8.5 million average cap hit

I think he ends up at 7 years at $8.25 per

I appreciate it!

As much as I would love to take all the credit my wife (and Hubie can attest to this) is the one with the heart of gold and obviously it has filtered down to our two girls.

Brian Flynn is on unconditional waivers

Remember him?

That might be the compromise we need to hope for. Good call.

He played well for MTL for a while didn't he?

If they get the deal done and it's signed before the TDL he will most likely get a 7 year deal.

I don't think that's a huge deal killer if I am Botts.

I hope it gets done soon.

He did.

I am curious as to what is going on there, usually they would waive him to send him down, but this is unconditional meaning they want to buy him out

And in the month of January like I said over a month ago, imagine that.

That's Crazy... I wouldnt expect that much of a gap. I think you have to give Ullmark 1A until something else happens.

He did.

Wasn't he just suspended?
Or am I thinking of someone else?
