Gagner > Umberger for me. But I would not be opposed to getting RJ if it came to it. Oh and Jvince I agree with you on DKR It was good but not my fav Nolan Batman.

Probably my least favorite of the trilogy... it belongs in the old group of movies not the other two.

Idk about it being put into the same category as the older ones but I do agree on it being my least fav of the Nolan 3.

I'm amused that Umberger has a NTC on his contract. But supposedly has asked for a trade.

I know he didn't do anything in Columbus (not that he had a great supporting cast), but he's the type of player that can help you win tough games.

He probably would be a good fit for our 3rd line. It seems like his contract is high, but so is Leino's and he was barely able to make it off the 4th line last year.

I am glad you used the term supposedly....

if i left that out i would be getting laughed at for even thinking it..

if the Sabres DON"T make a move, are they a playoff team? I say this team as it stands now, is one.

umberger and ott would make for a good duo on the 3rd line.. not that it is goign to happne but they would

can they make the playoffs yes.. they will be fighting for that 8th seed... will they be a contender Hell no

I agree. I think the changes we have made give us the toughness needed to hit the playoffs...I just don't see it being a deep playoff run. BUT as long as we make it past the 1st round I am honestly happy.

RJ Umberger has asked GM Howson for a trade...I, personally, have heard Buffalo come up a couple times now...would you guys be interested in him? does he make sense for the team? he is a center...

this is all I have to say

depleted....

He is as much of a center as Brooks Laich is.

i think that is why you put him on a line with ott.. together they make one center

but seriously i think he could bridge the gap until zem or grigs are ready to be a center.. at which time he can go back to the wing

If you are just "bridging the gap" take a run at Arnott. No assets and better cap hit and shorter term.

He's a stop gap, not a savior. He would effectively be replacing Gaustad's role and his 1 career playoff goal ( zero with the Sabres).

do we have to over pay him to play on the 3rd line like goose?

Sabres Front office ‏@SabresFront
Current #sabres offer from my source is ennis + leopold + 2nd. If the sabres become desperate they will use a 1st round pick

Sabres Front office ‏@SabresFront
According to media outlets JR said #sabres have the highest offer on Doan. That's old news from a month ago!

What's your definition of soon?

And for him to keep posting this stuff .... He's got to know something

Doubtful. But it's a non issue, he is too slow.

Nail Yakupov said before the draft he wasn't going back to Sarnia

yeah...he really just put himself out there...

...he said Gagner will absolutley be a Sabre by the end of today and that he expects both Gagner and Ryan here 100% by opening night...if he's wrong, he's screwed
