"Kyle Okposo will be out 6-8 weeks with an upper body injury, which increases the probability that they will be buyers prior to March 2nd. "

Fingers crossed their goalie goes down and our pick from them starts rising to the top!

Why because he was overweight? I bet he's here next year.

No. Because he sees Z as a threat to Myers.

Sabres listening: Murray, by the way, says he isn’t being cagey and holding on to his available players as long as possible before dealing them closer to the trade deadline.

“I’m not waiting,” he said. “I’m ready to go now.”

Right?!?

We've got 35 games left. Don't (frank) it up now!

Staff, Stewart, Mezsar...well, on second thought, he helps us in that department.

I'd be telling the other 29 teams that Mezsaros and Benoit are OFF LIMITS!!!

Shouldn't we say that everyone is off limits, to raise their value?

He obviously has a bit of maturing to do off the ice, too.

Not sure how old you are. But if you are at least in your 30s I don't think this statement comes as a surprise to you. He is a kid.

He's got no business being on this team, are you his manager?

I'm 43. But he's been being groomed to play at this level for a while now, at least.

Not to mention leaving home at a young age to live in North America should make you grow up fast.

Being on time should be the last thing this cat has to think about, at this point. However, sh!t happens and travel schedules get (frank)ed up. So maybe some are being too hard on him? Rules are rules, though, and the team was right to suspend him.

He has just as much right to be on this team as Tim Connolly did.

At least Ellis works hard.

Ellis is a scrub and does nothing at all for this team.
