How are Loui's advanced numbers historically/this year if you have them handy?

I just want Bogo gone so badly.

We lost gorges
Pommer soon
Moulson soon
Okposo looks real bad right now

But I just want Bogo gone

- jcragcrumple


But to take on a contract twice as long?
That’s doesn’t make sense

We probably won’t see Bogo all that much anyways
U know he will just get hurt in preseason game 2

I’m not one to get too riled up in the jersey design discussion, but holy cow, how doesn’t Winnipeg go back to their classics? Selanne 76 goals style.

I don’t think they’re allowed to

ABSOLUTELY NOT
Why would u even entertain that?

Loui is for 4 more years, and he’s like 33
Terrible idea
Bogo is 2 more years, IF we don’t trade him or buy him out

- jdfitz77



Questionable reasoning, but here it goes:

If healthy, bogo is headed for a buyout this year with two years left at just under $6m.

If we picked up a second in the trade, and Loui reinvigorated his career next to eichel, that would be awesome. If not, give him 2 years and buy him out like we were going to with Bogo

I'm not even trying to start crap but you're honestly the biggest joke on here.

For a bartender, you sure don't have a life.

I may be hot-headed and opinionated but I haven't been spending the past 3 months on here writing dissertations that say the same thing over and over ad nauseam.

But you clearly have mad skillz being able to bartend on allen st and simultaneously write 500 word posts on hockeybuzz that somehow say absolutely nothing of substance.

I was banned for a while but I stopped coming here before and after it because there's literally nothing to say about this team, it's management or it's fanbase anymore.

I only posted here tonight to point out that some of you need to get a hobby, honestly, it's intolerable reading the same things posted literally 500 times per blog by the same 4 or 5 people.

Obviously not everyone is doing it. You know who you are. That classic Buffalonian insecurity is something fierce though.

Nobody likes Bogo the player (I like Bogo the person), but at this point, isn't the best move to sit tight, bite the bullet, and show patience by simply letting his contract drop off the books the season after next, similar to what they're likely doing with Moulson and what they did with Gorges this year?

Except we could buy out Bogo now...
so that would be 2 years wasted time

You’re advocating bringing in a guy who’s 33, and has a terrible contract, and hasn’t been effective the past 2 years

There’s gotta be a better idea than than

If u really want Bogo gone so bad...
you just buy him out now

U don’t have to take on a terrible contact to get rid of him

Nothing lives up to that, but agreed. Sabres Gameday experience at the Key Bank Bibliotheca is terrible.

I will tell you what pisses me off

I grew up watching schoenny, hajt, ramsey on the blue line

they took no crap

I could not stand luce, craig ramsay, or dudley as players, but they never took shifts off

barasso was pissed when he let in a goal

edwards and sauve, they played the true team duo goalie system

gilbert was gilbert, skated every shift


foligno took no crap

korab cared more about his team mates than his stats

I could go on list about 100 other players since that era


up til briere and drury



then this team stopped playing as a team, and have a blank stare when down 2 goals instead of the eye of the tiger


jack shows it, the other 19 guys dressed never do

rant over

Risto
McCabe
Scandella
Beaulieu
Bogo
Guhle
(Sounds like Nelson)

Will be back next year. Some combination of those guys need to go imo if we're gonna get better from a defensive scoring position, in order to improve on this year, unless they plan to be bad next year, which would be hazardous to Housley and JB

They need to be aggressive in unloading Bogo imo

He's in the same boat as ROR for me. someone i want gone but it's just not going to happen. Botts all but confirmed him and mccabe as the 2nd pair next year.

He wants another high pick i guess

There's some question as to whether he'll be healthy enough to be bought out, but point taken. Not one of my better ideas

Would be nice if they started showing a strong dislike for the other teams in their division. Eichel included.

Go get Boroweicki out of Ottawa. Shouldn’t take much. Yes 365 and Broads, I am being serious.

Open the arena at 5 on weekdays,
$2 beers until gametime

Then maybe we can get the crowd there into it a little more

I know it’s partly bc we don’t have much to cheer about,
but it’s always dead in there
