What's that?

Kroger has some pretty nice stores too. I'd say they're between TOPS and Wegmans, but closer to Wegmans. Where's our Indy guy?

Now I've done it. I've said Wegmans too much and it's lost all meaning.

Kroger sucks.

Our grocery stores down here pale in comparison to Wegmans....I was so spoiled when I came home....

Probably because he's an RFA and there's really no rush.

I know it doesn't really happen...
But why not get it done & eliminate the risk of an offer sheet
Also, I'd assume that the player would like it done sooner than later. With the other comparable signings, I don't see any reason for delay...
Just think it's kinda weird

Totally forgot that was still up... Some new guy said that awhile ago. He was banned and I don't think he's been back since. He was being a gigantic douchebag.

I'm a sucker for forwards if we offer sheet Johnny hockey and lose Risto I would secretly do a fist pump in the corner

You're nuts!
Forwards are generally exciting to watch, but we need legit defensemen if we ever wanna win a Cup

I agree with all of this.

Gerbe is nuts. That we know. Forwards are generally more exciting to watch.

And you do need a legit defenseman to win a cup.

Risto is going to be very good for a long time IMO.

I wonder if Risto plus something we would think is affordable could land them Karlsson. That'd be effin nuts.

This might sound crazy...
But I'd rather have Risto!

I don't think Karlsson plays all that well defensively
I'd rather have a guy like Risto, who can be good at both ends

You're right, that does sound crazy. Karlsson is a Norris winner who can put up 70-80 points

The trouble with this is that Risto is pretty terrible defensively (hoping he can fix that part of his game). Not to mention that Karlsson doubled his point total this year, or that Karlsson is top 3 defensemen in the league.

I think you might be a little crazy on this one ..2 time Noris trophy defenseman
I'm guessing he will probably reach about five when his career is over with

You're basically taking someone who has potential to be great over someone that already is

If I had to guess the holdup in the Risto deal has got to be term. Sabres want long term and Risto wants a bridge. GMTM said they'd go with a bridge if they had to.

If I were him I'd want to cash in long term 6/7 years, then cash in again later when I'm still relatively in my prime.

I think Murray said they both want long term.

I bet Risto wants 6 per and Sabres are offering 5. I bet he gets 5.5 or so over 7.
