This. His team finally wins a cup and feels it's appropriate to jump on his soapbox. Pretty sure if things played out differently for his team in June, he wouldn't spewing that garbage. I know we haven't made any significant signings, but we don't need names to be competitive.

LA will be a middle of the pack team next year, just like they were this year....The are deserving champs but lets face it, they are no dynasty in the making.

Here are some facts:

1. Buffalo did not make the playoffs in 2011-12 despite adding Leino and Ehrhoff

2. Free agents Buffalo has added in the 2012 offseason - John Scott, Kevin Porter, Mark Mancari

3. Players lost to free agency - Brad Boyes

Questions to think about:

1. Has Buffalo improved their team during the offseason?

2. Has teams that finished below Buffalo in the standings improved their rosters?

Scott will be your 13th forward. The other 2 will probably wind up in Rochester.

So why would Doan want to sign in Buffalo? Buffalo has an uphill climb just to get into the playoffs in 12-13. I would think Doan would want to sign with a Stanley Cup contender imo.

I would also add that Sabres lost about a million man hours to injury.
If you gonna build a case that Doan should not come to Buffalo, think again.

Day off today...anticipating the Doan situation.
Nash and Luong are getting antze.....their teams want to get something done.

San jose has been very quiet......Buffalo has dealt with Wilson before....something may be brewing at that end.

If Doan plays 4 more years LA has no better chance of winning the Cup than we do in that time. The only reason he would go there is to stay out west.

Don't like that deal; rather sign Arnott or even Moore.
Edmonton seems to be interested in Leopold, perhaps a package of Leopold and a forward like Adam for Gagner and a pick would work?

- RicoMartin


Didn't we already bring Moore in and he left? Why would u want to bring him back? Just a question not a criticism

I just hope Doan decides soon, something has to give either Doan signing or Nash being traded.

Agreed Homer . No team is a shoe in for the cup these days.
We have the same chance as every other team as our roster is now. Hot goalie come playoff time . ( anyone know of any ?)
