Which Pouliot...? Because Benoit Pouliot was pretty much traded for a 5th rounder... I do really like Wilson, however. If they added in Ryan Ellis and a pick I'd accept that deal.

hahah I meant Benoit. Cheapppppppp! I'm thrifty. I like wilson but not sure if they are capable/willing to add enough to make it acceptable for trade.

With Pommer gone, we should easily get that top pick.

foligno, ott, ennis and coho will all score more goals then staff next season
- homiedclown

coho and ennis are not wingers
ott and foligno probably wont score more than stafford next year

No Crosby and they added alot of changes. Gonna take a few to define new roles
- hafgod

Too many changes for me. Why so many if things are going so well?

Helluva roster though. Best team on paper.

Who's complaining about Ehrhoff contract? Really? $4M per for him is not overpaid....

if they are going down that path

the only sabres over 27 you keep is ott and the hoff IMO

I'm okay with that. that leaves sulzer, leino, scott, hecht, porter, vanek, and miller to be gone. DR already mentioned he wasn't interested in dealing sulzer. Do they buy leino out? I don't think anyone takes him on. Hecht is a no question. There is no need or spot for him going forward. Do you keep scott? He is rarely in the lineup as it is. Porter is okay where he's at now but I don't expect much from him. Vanek and miller we will have to see what we can do with them.

Ott has more goals than Stafford this year and Foligno is tied with him. It's not really that far fetched to say it will happen.

Is this assuming they are all on the same team?

Our division is easily the toughest out of all four.

I think B is the easiest but the other 3 are all soild.

Once Crosby comes back. It will solidfy all there lines. Iggy and Malkin might be sick together. Like Morrow looked like he was trying to do to much

I said that earlier. Too many new personalities can cause issues.

young d prospect, fast LW prospect and a first

for vanek oh yes! this is what i'm talking about. I like, I like, I love!

I never understand why people say he's overpaid. I think he's one of the better values on the team.

Ya got me.... who IS complaining about Ehrhoff?


Edit: did you read the blog or something?

Interesting is Darcy's reply when they asked him if he was going to try to make the playoffs this year. "We aren't interested in making the playoffs this year but winning the cup next year". The tank is on.

I love ennis on the center. it's a bonus that he can play wing if we have a abundance of C talent somehow. Playing center gives him a little more freedom to keep his feet moving and when he's moving great things happen. Like CoHo he needs to work on his defensive skills but he's improved.

hafgod was complaining about it.

Was not complaing about Ehrhoff. Just said of all the guys on D he was the only one ok. Not great ok. It took a billion year contract to get to 4 mill. Was commenting on the state of sabres as a whole

you like that kid! Tropp & Girgensen are my favorites.

Ennis is more effective when he has more space to work with. Playing center gives him that.

I've read this thread from page 1 and i didn't note a single person complaining about ehrhoffs contract. But personally I think I was the only one complaining about contracts outright and that was Vaneks.

He'll be 38 when his contract expires. It's not like he won't be able to play it out.
