Bohannon finally got the Swede killed good. Love the show too bad it's ending.

Yeah it's one of my Favorites too. Not too many good westerns these days.

That's a crock. On WGR today they said teams have no say regarding endorsements. It's stricktly an NHL decision.

He can go out and endorse whatever he wants. He just has to do it alone. The team or a company affiliated with the team can't offer it to him. And obviously the league sponsors like Discover and Enterprise and Geico.

He's pretty legit,but I agree, I don't see how that would be legal. Although I don't put anything passed Uncle Lou

In this info vacuum it's entirely possible for anyone to latch onto any info and embarrass themselves. Remember the Pat Burns fiasco?

Agreed. Everyone is just guessing. No one knows poop. I don't even know why people keep tweeting possible teams and %

I think you're being generous with the $5,000.

Stammer would instantly get his number retired if he signed the Leafs' marketing contract then signed with the Sabres.

I get all that and i can only assume the money wouldn't come directly from the leafs itself. But its long been rumoured that the leafs were going to use something like this to bring him so im curious to see how exactly they'll do it without violating the CBA both in terms of offering that money and potentially tampering.

I would have to imagine everyone would pay their high priced contracts like this if it were legal.

I watched A Few Good Men tonight.

A line from that movie is always in my head. It is when Jo asks Danny to go to dinner.

Danny says to her "We are going to lose. And we are going to lose huge".

I am resigned to the fact that the Sabres won't land Stamkos. The top rumored team's are either his former team or original six teams. All of them are bigger cities with more to offer. However, if this endorsement deal is true and allowable, it will leave quite the sour taste in my mouth. That being said, I wouldn't fault Stamkos for signing it if he could.

I don't care where the (frank) he signs as long as it's not Toronto. I'd like him here for bragging rights but I can't stand him signing in Toronto

I'm not saying he's signing here, but he's interested in us and has been for a while. This has been in the works for months. Murray/Pegula know they have a shot and are going for it.

I think we have as good of a shot as anyone.

We are a year or two ahead of Toronto, we have a better future than Detroit. It all depends on what Stamkos wants.

This feels like the most important offseason since 2007. If they lose out on all 3, it will be devastating.

The Sabres will be better off if Okposo goes somewhere else. He has New York City Street "Rolex" written all over him...except you're paying the genuine Rolex price.

I bought the Ukrainian a very nice COUCH handbag on the streets of NYC when we were first dating.

Got a hell of a deal, too.

I remember Stammer's first game in buffalo. Started catching some heat about not scoring. They talked about his family being at the game on the broadcast. Then scored his first two goals and has been a Sabre killer ever since. Miller was great at getting a rookie off the Schneid.

We have just as good of a chance at getting Stamkos as any other team that is rumored he will go to.

For some reason Murray likes him, he isn't worth 6 mill a year.

He might get 7. You dont think ALL of the teams that freed up cap space for stamkos are gonna put that money in war bonds do you?

I have no source of any kind but I bet the video ultimately leads to no police action against Kane, and he becomes a quieter citizen.

I don't understand it either. Does he have ties to Anaheim or Ottawa I don't know about?

I honestly believe that if we don't land Vesey or Stamkos, a lot of people are going to turn on Murray very quickly.

This is a very big off season and upcoming season for him.

And I loved his draft this year
