The reality is, you can pay Winnipeg a rental price for Hellebuyck and include UPL if you so desire.

But they don't.

If the goalie trade market starts churning, there's no reason Kevo can't jump on the carousel. He won't because he doesn't think UPL + assets is worth the expenditure/improvement, which to me appears to be ignorant.

The Sabres and other teams don’t want to pay helleybuck 9 to 10 million a year at 29/30 years old.

what if upl shaved his head?
- TheSabresTaco



This is an option I have been considering, however his IQ is so low that the goalie coach will have to join him. Plus is it genuine if it’s shaved? I need to see either waxed or laser removal to eliminate those follicles that shrink the brain.

like I mentioned above.

yeah, it's a legitimate excuse when your team is getting caked every (frank)ing game. But the fact that Levi was analytically way stronger than UPL and Comrie for that matter still points the finger at their incompetence. As a big factor.

- TheSabresTaco


Maybe just maybe levi is a superstar in the making.

I'm sure the 3rd scoring offense in the league can carry upl/comrie to fake .500 in their 20/30 games

Kev feels the same way.

My box office friend said its ridiculous the interest. Sabres hired a whole bunch of new sth representatives.

It's happening.


If upl sucks , why not acquire a vet goalie at the deadline?

Guys like Vanacek, Schmid, Samsonov, Thompson, Kochetkov, Dostal would all be interesting targets.

Then again, Comrie was an interesting target too. So what the (frank).

That must be a comfortable delivery conversation for both sides.

Nationally the Sabres are gaining respect.

You're KA take is old and smells like farts.

we're trying to avoid the scenario entirely, because most people think he sucks.

Comrie looked good at times. Especially after the late season injury.

Gotta think the team likes him still as well.

Good enough for them last year...... signed a 2 year deal...

Let's see what upl can do with a more experienced defensive unit.

They have a 2B waiting if needed.

If upl sucks, its comries job.

A struggling team with a vet goalie could be moved anytime . Why now?

UPL had all the potential when drafted.

He has not showed any of it in the pros.

He hasn’t been good for any long stretch. Hell have a good game or two and then it’s awful.

I say this in all seriousness:

Do we know *for sure* Cooley isn't better than Comrie and UPL

Throw the stats out the window and make key saves at key times. Run and gun the offense obviously again.

Have someone the team likes and has confidence in.

i held out for a very long time on mittelstadt. I gave up about a month or two too early. I'll sign the form.

I didn't give up on tage. Proud of that.

I stan'd jack quinn, hard.

i was over UPL after he sucked in rochester for 2 years.

i'll go to KBC and hand out the (frank)ing forms in person.

Just make a trade to a team competing in the same league when you are down and quickly need to make a move, other GM's will happily help out.

they've said multiple times that levi (paraphrasing) is not a normal prospect. he's "different". I think they have a lot more faith in him, immediately, than we do.
