Good for the farm, he has no business on the Sabres.

Fedun was very serviceable for the Sabres last year, I'm glad they resigned him and I would sure rather have him in the line-up over Georges.

Would prefer not to rely on luck here ... plus the odds of a miss would go up if Lehner could make a save or there was more pressure on the shooter knowing the goalie was hard to beat
- Doug&theSlugs


It might help his confidence if his teammates scored a goal for him, They scored exactly Zero in his losses.

I'd give them their pick of foligno or girgens

their pick of borgen, baptiste, fasching


and our 2018 first for him


or mccabe and a second straight up for him

- homiedclown

For Pacioretty?
Is that a joke or are you serious? I hope you weren't in the running for GMJB's job.

He's decent
But I feel he's likely to sign with a contender
We'd probably have to give a guy like that a top dollar contract to come here
And also probably more years than we should

- jdfitz77


His familiarity with GMJB could soften the blow of dollar and term.

Yakupov is bad at the hockey, we don't need him on this team.

Girgensons and Larsson,pretty much the same player, we don't need both.

At this point, I'd rather go after guys like that
Then give Radulov 6mil + for 6yrs

Despres for the defense?
Probably wouldn't cost too much
2yrs, 2-3mil per?

No thanks, dude can't even spell his own name anymore.

really depends on your budget but in general...

distillery district
cn tower
rogers centre if you're feeling a ball game
st lawrence market
eaton centre/queen street west/yorkville if you feel like shopping

food/drink wise:
if the weather's nice id hit up one of the patio spots (amsterdam brew house, drake's sky yard, hemingways, pilot)

restaurants: canoe, beer bistro, soco kitchen, momofuko, The chase(seafood), bymark, richmond station, Blu ristorante

would check out some of the dessert stuff too if you're into that.

There's also kensington market too (designated national historic site apparently lol) but its not for everyone

casa loma and the ROM if you want to do some old timey/museum stuff

other bars: cloak bar and the caledonian have a pretty good rep as well but summer time in toronto the patio spots are your best bet.

Best place to take a poop in Toronto. 2nd floor of Sears *last reviewed 7/2003. The cleanest public bathroom I've ever seen.

Girgensons is a better skater

Both can play center or wing
U till they get passed by young guys we have coming up they're fine here

If either (or both) were traded I'd be fine with it though

I'm not quite sure I'd go McCabe at this point, only because it doesn't jibe with what our needs are. But value wise it's not even close. Pacioretty is like (frank)ing Wolverine when healing from injuries he had that whole Chara thing, came back super fast from that, he had his appendix out in an emergency surgery(they tend to be less gentle when they need to get that (frank)er out ASAP), they thought he was going to miss a month, he came back in 8 days, he scores like 35 goals a year.

What else do you need? Seriously, the guy's a beast and woefully underrated by so many for no reason.

I haven't been to Canada since 2011. I know, I know. I need to get my passport renewed. If only for the hookers.

That's what we need... more Americans comingover and leaving their used jimmy hats all over the mall parking lots.

Fair enough but theres also more pressure on our shooter knowing there's a good chance the other team will score ... whether it be through improved goaltending and/or better shooters we need to get at least 50% of the shootout points next season

Give them a chance to compete for 4C this year and then keep best one ... Girgs is a better skater so will be interesting to see what he can do this year

Montreal is a confusing organization

They seem to always want to trade their best players (besides Price)
