I think Tanner and Mike Schoop are the same person. Just an observation based on how they both deal with criticism, and their "analytics at all costs" attitudes.
- Wetbandit1



F them both...

I've never heard or read two intelligent people sound so well idiotic.

I don't have to watch the game I just check the analytic stats to see how they played -Mike Schoop

And Rasmus Ristolanin is at best a 5/6 defenseman - Tanner


Ugh I need another beer

Yeah, moving sucks. I'm moving in a couple months. Not looking forward to it, at all.

I'm fine with all those names, but...
It's hard for me to see any of those guys accepting a 7th defenseman role
And definitely not a #8

Weber & Carlo would

- jdfitz77


That might be true but they haven't signed with anyone yet so they might not have a choice. I would think at this point they just want a job, albeit a one year contract.

edit- I could see them offering a PTO to a dman.

I think it's:

Hawks
Sabres
Toronto
Boston
Everyone else

In that order. He listens to Boston to give them a "chance" but I think it's Chicago or Buffalo.

That could be the homer or the 12 pack I drank and working on the other 6 in me...

- Stripes77



Question, so Vesey is looking into everything about teams, how much does he care about his number? Some care more than others, but the Hawks might have a number 19.... (Trying to convince myself they are off the table. Also I feel as though they will trade him at some point, which I hope he feels as well. He would then lose control of his destination, so I think they will be off the table)

I don't think the number matters to him but you might be right as the them having to trade him

Come on.

Team: "Jimmy, here's $2M to play hockey with the team that fits all but one of your dream criteria."

Vesey: "Thanks, but no. If I can't wear 19 I'm going elsewhere."

Omg, I feel bad for IK, but thank god. I don't understand what Rex saw in that guy. Only time I've ever noticed him was when he was getting manhandled by an o tackle or jumping off sides.

What do you think about Forte this year?

when it comes to fantasy football, I would rather avoid aging players a year early than a year late

I am avoiding forte, fitz, and players coming off big injuries like nelson and charles

He has worn it his whole life, and sometimes that is a big deal. I was just asking. Never know.

I have gone back and forth on our chances of landing Vesey...lately am of the opinion he is going elsewhere...maybe that is me preparing for losing him, something that Buffalo sports fans have had their fair share of disappointment in things of the nature.
One thing I haven't wavered on is the fact I was happy that GMTM took his best shot at trying to land him...other fans might laugh at us if he decides to go elsewhere, but I admire his aggressiveness to try and land him early...as well as firmly plant the idea that the Sabres are serious about him being a big part of their plans should he decide to come here. So, when the Bay Leaf fans troll over the next few days, I'd rather have my GM be aggressive than not! Say what they will, but TM has balls!

I think we also sign a dman or offer a PTO. I say we'll end up with 45 contracts.
