Petersen doesn't have a lazy eye

yeah

if the habs blew them out the other night, he was going to be canned before this road trip

Does that mean if they play well in the final 2 meaningless games he gets to stay?

yeah for 2 more games... lol

How does that screw the Sabres? would that not screw the NHL?

and if he is in the AHL, you can let him go play anyways.... How does this screw the Sabres again?

With the players not going to the Olympics he could be the USA goaltender if he stays in college

no, I think they wanted to see the team play with no pressure for 2 games, to get false hope of the scrubs moving forward

someone falling charlie hoffman at augusta must be playing the song free falling

if it doesn't happen in the next 24 hours

it probably wont happen

or if its "that important to him" the sabres could let him go... like they let Nylander go this year.... think your making a something out of nothing.

One interesting wrinkle with Cal Petersen....he could opt to stay at Notre Dame for his senior year if USA Hockey offers an Olympic spot.

i dont get it, they want to give themselves false hope?

Why?

burn a year of entry level contract

I really don't know the rules but I'm pretty sure if you're under contract you can't head over there ..
Unless you get fined or suspended

if he is a good Catholic boy, the degree alone is worth more than the sabres could offer him for next season

burn a year of entry level contract
- homiedclown

Does he not get 1 million for just playing one game ?

A.O. says he will pay the fine

- homiedclown

If he does sign with us he should go with that gold helmet full time with us

Does he not get 1 million for just playing one game ?
- GERBE!!!75PTS

yup, and takes off one year of entry level contract

A.O. says he will pay the fine
- homiedclown

Oh I know a lot of NHL players are going but he's just a prospect and I don't think the Sabres have any choice but to suspend him or fine him the max

burn a year of entry level contract
- homiedclown

What is the deadline to do that?

yup, and takes off one year of entry level contract
- homiedclown

I think it's prorated

But he is one step closer to RFA which means one step closer to UFA

burn a year of entry level contract
- homiedclown

I think Homie is right that if he signs here, it's going to be in the next 24 hours. It is complicated.

My question: Does he have to sign with the Sabres before their season is over (Sunday) to be able to burn the first year of the ELC?? Or is it June 1st?

What is the deadline to do that?
- MCGUIZZY

pretty sure he has to be under contract for 1 game


so they would need to sign him by tomorrow night

What is the deadline to do that?
- MCGUIZZY

He would have to be in the lineup for Sunday's game

What is the deadline to do that?
- MCGUIZZY

Until the games are done I believe ( Rochester or Buffalo)
Then we have till July 1st to sign him

I think it's prorated

But he is one step closer to RFA which means one step closer to UFA
- Stripes77

and 3 steps closer to getting paid, if he is the real deal
