Do you have Boone Jenner mixed up with another CBJ player?

https://www.capfriendly.com/players/boone-jenner

He's a 20-20, physically imposing Center who's 55% on the dot, and only making $3.75M per.

Sure looks like a quality 3rd line Center addition, bringing a style not currently on the roster.

Yeah Boone Jenner is like if Olofsson was physical and worked hard, plus a gritty center with more heart than half of our roster.

Would love Jenner here.

Dahlin, Power, Ryan Johnson, Mattias Samuelsson (maybe), Tage, Cozens, Mittelstadt, Peterka, Quinn --- how many more solutions need to come internally before management realizes the composition of the roster, at forward and defense, is lacking what it needs to push the team forward overall?
- kingcong39


Conversely, how many washed up vets will we bring in or keep before we learn that's nonsense? The guys you named, outside Sammy, aren't the ones bring this team down. The issues are Eric Johnson, Jeff Skinner (due to contract), Kyle Okposo, Tyson Jost, Victor Olofsson, Zemgus Girgensons, Connor Clifton and Eric Comrie. Replace those guys with real NHLers and we're likely in a playoff spot right now.

Christmas came early to Buffalo and y'all are Grinching each other hard.

this team is run by a bunch of aszholes.

I am a big fan of getting close to seeing de-gens finally benched/let go for better players though

wonder if kevyn is lobbying the nhl for an exemption to allowing 25 players so he doesn't need to release murray and bryson

Does meatballs toss him on the 3rd line to ease him in....only for him to fall into the abyss that is playing with Jost/Olo?

Where would you like to see him in the lineup and what are your expectations for him this season?

Eric Comrie mentioned on this morning’s episode of the 32 thoughts podcast. Friedman mentioning that with his cap hit that he’ll be difficult to move.

Gotta think that the Sabres would have to retain half of his salary to move him. The question is, are they willing to do that?

The contract is so bad he is immoveable without retaining, which we know won't happen...that's a position of strength if I say so.

Colorado moved Tater, same cap hit as Lindholm, I bet he is going there. Adams called to ask about how the different time zones effects vibes.

Apparently he's getting top line time at practice, maybe just because Tuch is out.

I dk, Dan mentioned easing him in with the 3rd line, which I liked initially, but given linemates I'm not sure how easy that will be. I'd say it just depends on the docs. My expectations will be minimal until I see how he's skating, but I do think we'll see a better effort with him in the lineup. He seems to be able to exhort effort from the guys somehow.

Is the worst thing about Pegula his refusal to let our GMs weaponize cap space? I mean we're trying to pull out of the rebuild mode now, but we've seen soooo many cap dumps change hands during this drought, it's tough to not feel jealous.

they will ease him in. He's probably a spot for tuch, especially considering don thinks tuch plays tomorrow.

if so, think jack hops in on the third line, gets 10-12 minutes in ES and PP.

now all kevyn needs to do is to pay a headhunter to take out olofsson so he can protect bryson while olofsson is on IR. This allows greenway to return without losing a major asset to waivers.

Ottawa and Carolina could use a gently used Comrie. 50% off.

The worst thing is he is required to be involved....and has the hockey intelligence of drunken sloth.

He has thrown money around like a sloppy monkey tosses sh*t. Now he wants to be conservative no matter what.

He is the problem, and the people he hires since firing Botts are all weak, unqualified yes men, allowing them to spend money is more dumb than being conservative. Adams has shown he has no idea how to manage cap, so I don't see any advantage allowing him to do so.

The Sabres have placed defenseman Jacob Bryson on waivers.

He’s been a healthy scratch for all but three games this season.
