Whats going on with the Vesey watch? Where is Pegula's jet?
- sabresfan69

Just read he's still going to free agency on August 15. He's sure gonna make it tough on the Sabres.

We are going solidly Swedish. No one can say TM doesn't like his Swedes

Cap friendly is fast, I was playing around on the site, saw him on the Sabres roster, and that's how I found out about the trade.

He's big, drafted by the Islanders then left for the KHL for a season due to playing time, rights traded to Chicago, rights traded to Oilers, was the backup/1B for Edmonton early on until he started to falter, traded to STL due to a goalie injury, and now he's a Sabre.

He blows...
Lehner better stay healthy
If he does miss time, I'd bet that Ullmark comes up to be the starter
Wish we could've brought back Johnson, or even Enroth

TM can't make a decent trade to save his life, he could have had a better goalie in Enroth for free but he gives up a 5th which could be a solid player, maybe a star, RYAN MILLER!!! ugh!!

Thought I'd get that out there already too

Why couldn't we have traded Franson for him?!

(I'm sure that one is on it's way, too)

“I am a little bit of a homebody. Obviously, I went to Harvard, which meant I was only 25 minutes from school . . . my folks obviously could come to a lot of games, come down to see me. I never lived away. I mean, I went to college, but I was home pretty much every Sunday. It would be good to have them all within a certain radius to come see me.’’ - Vesey

Meh, he's a back up. Most of us thought CJ sucked for a while. If the team in front plays well he should be ok at least till say deadline day and then maybe you make a move for someone who's clearly better.

They're old quotes inserted into an article for today. It's highly misleading.
