Im almost certain Oloffson was here last year, Possler was not.
Idk about signing here, that could be true

My bad.. Swede mix up..

As I mentioned earlier I remember reading Oloffsson may not come over. Hasn't been to any Sabres development camps and I recall reading he didn't want to play in the AHL. This was over a year ago though so maybe things have changed.
- bluengold12



Oloffsson was here for camp shortly after being drafted.

Possler was here in 2014 also he didn't come here last year though.

where was I rude?



serious question, since I honestly can't recall being rude to anyone IN A LONG TIME


in fact when I was being scolded as an uneducated fan , not you, I simply took the high road


take a flier on kovy, frowned on
trade gus and plug larsson on third line center, frowned on
extend johnson 2 more years, frowned on
skunk is capable of putting up 50 points this season if he gets top 6 minutes, frowned on
miller is not elite, frowned on


again this part in not meant to be directed at you, but since we have the next 1,000 future nhl gm's in our forum, figure out what the f#ck you guys/gals want


if you want it to be a free for all, don't get bent over a link

if you want it to be strictly hockey, your opinion is no more or less important than mine, rico martin or texting sources

I swear with advanced stats the fans have gotten dumber over the years instead of looking at the player with the best representation, the eye test

Well, you seemed to think that I was offended by the link you posted and then said that this is why the country is doomed. IMO, that's rude. Maybe you don't think so, but I do.

As far as the opinion thing, I've never once thought mine was any better. But you throwing a temper tantrum every time someone disagrees with you lately kind of implies that you feel your opinion is worth more.

We've all said it a bunch of times around here, we're not all always going to agree. This place would be VERY boring if we did. But for some reason lately, you get all bent out of shape when someone doesn't agree with you.

As far as your opinions in the list above go, I don't think much differently of any of it other than the Larsson/Girgensons thing. I'd rather keep Girgs and move Larsson.

I think this is true. Cornell, Fasching, Olofsson, Florentino and B. Martin joining Bailey, Carrier and Baptiste should be a nice face lift.
Only issue is the centers that homie mentioned are all on the sabres

- yen6d1



Varone & C. O'Reilly are both pretty decent AHL centers though
Maybe we can sign another good AHL vet or 2 that can be defensively responsible and still get those guys the puck
Maybe Catenacci can be moved back to center as well?
He's got the speed & skill to also fit between some of these guys

I meant Possler. I read an article from a Swedish paper maybe a year or so ago that from what I recall someone from on here posted saying he wasn't sure he was coming over and it had something to do with only wanting to play in the NHL.

hahah they both play on the same swede team also.
I went this summer and thought Oloffsson was the only player that really stood out from the outsiders group of prospects

Players under contract in European leagues almost never are allowed to come over for our development camps.
Armia is a recent example. He didn't come over until he was done with his team & Finland & signed over here.

AHL vets is a huge issue down there right now because you can only have so many dress a game. So Matty Ellis, Kaleta, COR, Varone etc. have all been forced to sit games.

- IndianaSabresFan



He is. Same draft year as Armia.
He's actually the guy I wanted the Sabres to pick once the Rangers scooped up JT miller. I think he went only a couple
Picks after is in that draft.
McNeil is a big, 2way center
He'd probably beat out Schaller as our 4th line center next year
Possibly even force Larsson to the wing & take the 3C slot
He had a good year last year in the AHL, 20something goals I believe. And last I checked he was doing decent this year too, although I think he's missed some games bc of injuries...

Okay fine. He was here for one camp. But I have my doubts he comes to play in Rochester.

IMO social media and message boards (except for message boards based on religion or politics) should use bar etiquette.

No Religion
