But he’s never been a Sabre.

I don’t get though, who wouldn’t take a Wilson type of player if we drafted one in the mid-first?

I’ll take Reinhart over Wilson as a # 2 pick 7 days a week.

Just as long as he doesn't get overpaid by 40%.

Tom wilson is a winner
Sam reinhart is a sabre

You bag Flacco even though he’s a winner. So you agree and disagree by the sounds of it. Make up your mind.

Connor Sheary won 2 cups once upon a time as well hanging off jock straps. Sheary scored 20+ playing with superstars like Tom Wilson does too. Tom Wilson is a good but overpaid complimentary piece. I agree we need physicality in our lineup but if we’re talking winners then I could name 8 guys on that Caps team I’d take before Wilson.

Last year, tom wilson won the Stanley cup in his young prime of 23/24 years old. Played great in the cup drive.

Flacco won the superbowl 6 years ago and is 34 years old. Football years. Also, he was replaced last year by his championship team : by a rookie.

I'm sure you see the difference.

Yea I see how well that worked out for them. Unless Lamar learns how to throw a football he doesn’t have a career in the league. The tape is out there on how to stop the running game. Chargers made him look atrocious in the playoffs and the Ravens were at home.

With the not so new " lottery draft", there is no garauantee a team could pick #3 overall.

So infatically- NO

“Emphatically” is what i think u meant

But anyways...
acquiring Montour could only be seen as a move that would make us better
Not a move that would help us “tank”

He’s worthy of a roster spot, but you don’t need to pay 2+ mil for guys like that if it came down to it.

Same with 22, 28, 20

The hope is Asplund, CJ etc make them irrelevant

- sbroads24


Are ppl on here saying that we should pay E Rod, or any of those others u mentioned, over 2mil a year?

I sure hope not
Must have missed it

Patriots go 9-7 at best next year. Book it. Bills win the division at 10-6. We host the Pats in the Wild Card.

Well this is where we don't agree at all..
Again this team is under performing....BIG TIME You can certainly have your opinion on the matter. you nor I have any idea what this team is right now with a real coach behind the bench.

- gordong


Who on our team is underperforming?

Sheary is who we were told by Pens fans-
a guy who can’t score unless he’s with elite talent

Are Mitts & Tage “underperforming” or do they just need more time to develop?

Okposo, Berglund, Sobatka, etc...
Underperforming? Or just not any good?

You’re right...
there’s no way to know of a coach like Torts (for example) would have this team in the playoffs
But i think it has a hell of a lot more to do with the guys ON THE ICE,
than the guy behind the bench

The Walking Dead last night ? WOW. One of the best episodes ever. Best season in a LONG time - new showrunner has helped. Anyone who stopped watching ... go watch last night's episode. I think it's called "The Calm Before".

I think we could all agree that an HOUR away from our hectic lives to sit down, relax, and enjoy a bit of entertainment on the TV - regardless of your taste in programs - is a nice thing. The show is infinitely more enjoyable to watch than 99% of Sabres games this year...there's no denying that.

With how active JB wants our blue line to be, I expect us to try and land Gardiner this offseason.

He fits the Montour/Dahlin/Pilut type of D man and would be a huge get

if you mean calendar year.... yes.. the sabres early on this season were actually fun to watch, they stayed in games and i never felt like the game was over till the horn at the end of the game. i am not really sure what the hell happened.

we're 2 losses away from being 4th last. so that's fun. we'll leave it to Phail Housleague to get us there. it's hard to win hockey games though.

You're right. However, I think the "winning streak" was an aberration. I don't even call it a winning streak - I call it a ten game luck streak. Could've lost like 8 of those very easily.

i agree that they could have lost 8 of those games.. but just the way they played was different, they seemed to play with purpose and i felt like they were always in the games.
