Apparently, the character is billed in all episodes through 2016, so unless it is a lot of flashbacks it's a ruse.

Thanks people on the internet for doing all the hard work.

Yeah, the uncertainty around that "event" is the worst part. If it turns out to be a fake it would kind of piss me off though, I don't want this show going all Lost on me.

Anyone else concerned about Girgs? He's giving off vibes that he isn't happy with his role in the team. Maybe he's at odds with Bylsma. I don't know. But for the first time I'm getting the feeling he might be the player they deal for a dman. Something is off. Hope I'm wrong.

I think he's the kind of guy that would except any role given to him. He will be fine, just needs some time, the points will come.

yeah, I am a bit...but I think he's a pro and will work through it...perhaps he should plant himself in the crease more to block the goalie...Bylsma seems enamored with that

My bet is Ennis for D plus. I think he finds his way to the dog house if he doesn't realize he doesn't have to do it all himself.

I think he'll get on the board soon. It's interesting that with Kane out he's still on the 3rd line. Here's hoping that line gets going and contributes some goals.

The difference, IMO, is the TM signed Ennis long term and inherited Girgs. I don't think Ennis is untouchable but I also doubt TM is eager to move that contract.

So that's more the reason to practice I'm sorry they just lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars there's absolutely no excuse they can come up with why they lost to that team

It's probably part of the CBA that they have to have the bye week off.

I don't think anyone is untouchable, just varying degree of prices.

Ennis and Girgs would take a lot because of what they can provide to the team.

If D is the primary target, one of our defensemen would have to be included as well, I would think. There are too many as it is.

I could see Anaheim needing a winger, but they would have to move offensive players as well as a defenseman. It would be a really convoluted trade with Anaheim, if we are using them as an example.

Garth, because Anaheim has had scouts at Buffalo's last games.

So it's Ennis for Fowler+ or something?

I mentioned it before Garth, the Ducks talked about Ennis again with the Sabres. As they did a couple years ago when Gibson's name was brought up, Ducks mentioned Ennis and Darcy did his usual......................... nothing. I believe I mentioned before that a player may be moved and some on here aren't going to like it, not just Ennis.

Yeah.

I tried to find the reference, but couldn't.

I don't think it's going to be anything that we see happen. I said just above that a deal with Anaheim would involve a lot more than just a 1 for 1, or 1 for 1+. Especially if it is something like Ennis for Fowler, or whatever it was.

Many Anaheim fans think Vatanen is not going to be resigned, so maybe that's part of what Anaheim is looking to move. Great PP QB, but I don't know.

I know a lot here are fed up with Ennis but his game goes in waves. When he's on most here would call him a huge part of this team. I wouldn't move him. He has top 6 skill and a great contract.

My apologies. I forgot you mentioned it first.

I'm fine with whatever they do, as long as it's not Jack... second the Skunk, but you have to give to get I guess.

The list I can see would be:

Samson
Ennis
Foligno (scratched multiple nights)
MFE (kidding?)

thx...fair enough...do the sabres feel that it's time to make a move?...or is it more of a team making an offer that would spark a hockey trade?

Tim did mention something about "a move not being available today being available tomorrow".

Reminds me a lot of the Jays with Tulowitzki/Donaldson. One day a players untouchable but one phone call from an agent and 24 hours later he's on the market.
