I really need to change this idiotic avatar.

I’ve never seen this movie

I did it to make fun of someone

Why am I replying to myself?

He was always a good guy with me, I wish him all the luck and congrats to him on his success.

He and I used to agree a ton and then he went full blown crazy town on me one day and I haven’t seen him on here since

Zuccarello wants a 5 yr deal.

Easy pass. Zuc is on the tail end of his career.

Brayden Point and the Tampa Bay Lightning aren't close to a new extension, according to The Athletic's Pierre LeBrun.
Point will become a restricted free agent on July 1st and the two sides still have plenty of work to do. The 23-year-old had an incredible season, as he accumulated 41 goals and 92 points in 79 games with the Bolts. According to LeBrun, the Lightning want Point to sign a two or three-year bridge deal, while the forward is pushing for something closer to five years in length. Other NHL teams can start talking to all restricted free agents as of Wednesday morning at midnight ET.

In 3 months he’s 32.

2 yr deal max but he’s gonna get a 5yr deal.

It’s an easy pass for me due to age.

He got rich when people discovered the benefits of his invention and he decided he had better things to do than eff around with us putzes.

So I guess he’s now a busy executive?

He had good stories about going on the road with bands. And he had been to my city before.

That was kinda strange. There are far worse places in Buffalo to live than Depew. Like Lockport, or Niagara Falls, or the Fruit belt in Buffalo.
- Wetbandit1



Wtf is the fruit belt? I never noticed any orchards. Only cereal factories.

Zuc is a nice player he'd look good on the wing with Skinner and Eichel

Tb would be lucky to get away with that, don't you think? Might take a considerable amount more to get Point out of there based on current market value

Do they have the needed picks for that? Thought someone said they don’t. Find a way to take Stamkos off their hands.

I thought that based on the amount of the AAV, there is a certain combo of picks that the Sabres didn’t have that eliminated them from offering a big range. It would require a 3rd round pick that the Sabres didn’t have if the AAV was up there. Idk. BS rule if you can’t compensate with a round better pick. Pay more than what the compensation price is if u don’t have the right picks.
