waaaay out of proportion...


not good enough
- Michael Pachla

That Leaf fan troll is right though...negativity doesnt help the situation. It makes good copy and the fans like it, but thats where it ends.

term dictates whether or not Lehner will be the guy...one-year? no...three years? probably...five years? definitive yes...

i don't see murray making that commitment yet
- Michael Pachla

With any luck his ass gets canned before he can make another mistake with Lehner.

He may not commit to him financially yet but its obvious that he envisions Lehner as the current/future number #1 otherwise he wouldn't have paid up to get him. He'll get a lot of chances and be given a lot of leeway as a result.

There will be a team or two out there that will give Petersen a better shot at earning it quicker, why wouldn't he choose that?

he's in year-two of the build portion of the program...he's had good moves and bad moves...and he's had the game change a bit since he took over

Here's what we know: Cal Petersen likely to exit NCAA, can sign a two year ELC shortly after his season. Will it be with Buff? Maybe.

If I'm Petersen's agent, I want to know if Sabres are going to commit to 25 year old Robin Lehner long term.

I said he might vesey us ugh

Accountability is not the same as negativity, no matter how you spin it.

there's no more obvious commitment than dollars and term...all the rest is speculation

Please elaborate on said changes. His bad moves are well documented.

Accountability is also often mis interpreted as negativity


It has a negative connotation that more often than not produces positive results

there's no spin...Eichel isn't about to gloss over things...wanna be a man?...take it like a man

- Michael Pachla

Fair enough. Let me put it this way. As petersen's agent, you watch the sabres invest a 1st rounder in a young goalie with no proven record. Are you still optimistic your client will get a fair shot?

it's a much faster nhl than it was even two years ago, especially in the east

Actually, it rarely prodices positive results, in any industry.

I am very happy to be here

Bylsma has 300 wins, just in case you didn't know already.

I did not. What about a stanley cup?

First game that I can actually watch in a little while

...and the Oilers....defensemen cant develop fast enough. Its a long process no matter the talent level.
- Larsson_fan

You can see why the price of any reasonably young Dman is ridiculous. Lots of teams with impactful young forwards but the successful ones have the good Dmen.

He's bad at the Hockey

I'm gonna guess Kane gets a Gordie Howe hat trick.

Laine gets a real one

Gorges scratched for Fedun

Bylsma +1
