Is this the same Bogosian who has 2 goals and 9 points?

Or are we talking about his brother, Jack Bogosian?

They are certainly nowhere close to equal.

bogo was taken higher in the draft so obviously he is better

The 18 year old once in a lifetime defenseman is outscoring risto 5 x 5.

Risto is not getting traded.

- Boss34

I mean, I can almost guarantee they’d consider trading him due to the fact that he won’t be our #1 D man and is paid a pretty decent cap hit.

I honestly don’t care if he’s traded, I care that he gets about 5-6 less minutes a night in ice time.

I mean, for a PP specialist our PP kinda blows

Regarding our beloved Sabres, none of us really know what the F we're talking about. We're all morons. Everybody can shut the F up now.

Carry on with your lives.

I'd be astonished if there wasn't a GM who significantly over-valued Risto, and all it really takes for a Risto trade is the right match and timing.

This overvalues a first round pick.

There is nothing close to a guarantee, much less even a presumption, that a first round pick will turn into a top 6F or top 4D, and even if the pick does get there, it's not likely to happen for 3 or 4 years, so the "at least 8 years" business is LOONY.

What's a realistic trade that sends Risto out that brings back an established player that overall elevates this team without setting it back?

I know you are joking, but I love how the simpletons feel a player picked in a certain draft class slot should be doing as well as the best player taken in the same slot in a different draft class

Can't argue with that. Send the decree to Botts. We might not have to though, I know he reads Hbuzz

This may be the best cocktail ever created. Place in Pittsburgh called Maggies... do yourself a solid.

a hole in the wall near the bridge in st cats, woman was dancing to neil young, free world in the mid 90's

I was at the stage, trying to give her a dollar

she dragged me on stage, gave me instructions, laying down

20 seconds later did a back flip, landed on my face and took the dollar from my mouth with her lower lips


perhaps the best dollar I ever spent

I just fail to see where losing Ristolainen is a giant loss.

He scores PP points and hits people.

Makes a fantastic play every 5-10 games.

He isn’t good at actually defending or driving offense

I agree with the PP struggles
Hard to lay the blame on risto without sharing the blame

As a fan, I love risto's game.
The parts that aren't measured by advanced stats.

Tough to play against
Pest
Hard hitting
Shot blocking
Leadership
Physical conditioning
Outstanding effort- not always results


Why cant he be our 2 or 3 ?

Ahhh, the old "rolled up dollar bill split-faced hair shark trick".

Good times.
