So what's the first line looking like? O'reilly - Eichel - Kane? Quite dangerous I must say

Do we pick at 51 or is a defenseman coming our way?

Don't think that's much of an accomplishment, but it's a start

Mark Pysyk is a big winner today, and I believe will become the next Mike Ramsey for us, or at least Bill Hajt.

good question, but methinks Eichel will be eased in on the second line

Busy day for Murray, and I am excited moving forward.

I didn't flinch at O'Reillys cost, but I did a little at Lehners. But at the same time, I'm not overly concerned at this point, because it seems like Ottawa goalies have a better track record after they leave, then while they are a Sen.

This.

O'Reilly between Kane and Ennis on the top line.

Eichel with moulson/gionta/foligno on 2nd to ease him in.

McCabe and Pysyk both moved up the depth chart. One of them will be in the top 6 this year, depending of course if we sign a UFA D man or make a trade.

Buffalos Front office did masterful work yesterday. You guys should be excited.

It will be fun to watch the rise of the Sabres while Boston falls off a cliff.

I like all the moves. People get very fussy about trading picks. Thing with picks is the very best they can be are NHL players one day. That's what we traded for, legit NHL players, and a top line center to boot.

If you're still following the sabres after all the "suffering", you can look past a possible overpayment on Lehner and have some faith in TM.

Not in love with the idea of Lehner but I've been wrong before.

Matthew Spencer 6'2" 194 Peterborough Petes

Great skater with strong puck handling ability. Nasty to play against and pounds the enemy relentlessly. Makes a solid first pass. Has a quick release. In his own zone he makes a point to explode in contact behind his net and opposing forwards don't like venturing into his side of the ice.

I have a feeling though Murray might go for Vladar.

Exciting time to be a sabre fan.
I think yesterday's events put the team back on the big boy path.
Good times a-coming

I thought the Flyers did very well with Provorov and Konecny.
