Hard not to do that deal
- SABRES 89

I think it's nearly impossible to even consider doing that deal.

Why?

I am not giving up a young, cost controlled (for 2 more seasons after this) quality D who is improving, for a player who is making $4M+ more per year.

Especially when the player Buffalo would be trading would be making a position of weakness a position of absolute weakness.

Keep the Risto, McCabe, Guhle (we all hope), draft your BPA this year with a high pick, whether that be a forward or a defensemen, and make a serious run at Shattenkirk.

Get a grill, "wizard".

I think he's saying you finish it in the oven

Which is normal when you put it on a cast iron skillet

I have one, Mr. Weber. It's great for hots, sausages, hamburgers, chicken, pork chops, lamb chops, fish, chopped veggies, slices of fruit, and anything else I want to (frank) around with.

But when it comes to a steak, and I'm getting into some serious science, it goes in the oven.

Its actually Landesdoge

Murray was mocking him earlier today, he said something along the lines of " I do more work in 2 F*****G hours than he does in half a season" I didn't know he was that deep in the doghouse.

Haha I'm that true? Where did you hear that?

Even if that's not true, it's still hilarious!

I could use a wad of whitehots.

Glad they sell the Z's in Buffalo

not sure what your beef with me is but whatever. Maybe because I'm french. I know how you Germans feel about the french. I'll stick with my grill. Happy eating and drinking friend. Namaste.
- Khmylev

I like french fries.

I had you pegged as a Ukie, by the way.

Agree. I think holding McCabe, trying Nylander on the wing, and going looking for top end defense is smarter than acquiring a top end wing, keeping Nylander, and looking for two defenders.
- Der Kaiser

Holding onto what we have and trying to add is better then moving a piece or pieces we need.

Even if that's not true, it's still hilarious!

Flynox was there, knew grant was going to the ahl before it was announced. And it kind of makes sense

Does more work yet we're still one of the worst teams in the league ...


Just saying lol

Spot on.
Easier to acquire (not easy, easier) a winger than a top 2 Dman...especially on a team that is void of high quality D depth already.

you use an oven to ensure you get an consistent temp throughout the steak without over cooking and burning the exterior.

Thats the best way to finish off a good cut of beef so you dont under cook the interior and have it bleed out when cutting into it
- DDM-Coga

I get it. I'm a very good cook. I just can't see not grilling a steak. To each their own. My bad.

2017-2018 D:
??? - Risto
Guhle - Bogo ('cause unless LV takes him, he is ours forever)
Fedun - Falk
???
Need that top pairing guy...get a mature stay at home guy and let Risto loose
- IonSabres

I think you have McCabe there, (think you just forgot), I do think we will make a play for another D man. I think Gorges is there too (even though we dont want that)

I do think we make a play for another D man at some point, before trade deadline, during draft, or FA. (but that is too easy to say). I think we will be at least 1 D man short of what we want starting next year.

Shattenkirk will cost 6.6 a year or more, let the Rangers get stuck with him. I like him but will cost to much either by trade or FA.

- SABRES 89

I agree. We could use another winger to play with Jack, but ugh, We need Defensive help.

Do we have a choice? what exactly is the alternative?


we're going to have to overpay for a d-man no matter which route we take.

Kind of like what Lindy said to my uncle's friend on the Sabres during practice one day about Leino.

We will draft the winger for jack

Trade Sam + for OEL

Playoffs

Paying Shattenkirk 7 mill a year is not the way to go right now.

who the hell cooks steak in an oven?!

Just saying, you came in pretty loud to wind up so interested in the Marquess of Queensberry.

Not gonna happen, let it go regarding OEL.
