Is UPL there this year?
- ImThatGuy


UPL was quoted as saying he'll be discussing with Buffalo and his agent whether Sudbury or Finland was the best place to play this season

So Irish said a while ago "Simmonds?".

So what is acceptable here, 2-4 years at $4-5m per?

I would like 2 at $4m per if anything, but doubt that is doable.

Ek is stating that the Wild are not interested in moving Zucker, so a trade in the next 48 hours?

That's gonna be awkward in the locker room with his wife basically putting the org on blast.

Even after dumping Feces, Rangers are in cap hell with Panarin and Trouba still to count.

Is Buchenevic worth a hard lookfor an OS?

We are paying BIG for Rochester success next year all of these deals are 1 way deals so we are paying them 700k to play in Roch.

Lazar, Hammond, Gilmour, del zotto.

Did they forget they will have to pay 28 million dead cab space when Weber retires in two years

It gets spread out, but it's still major BS, since it's the result of an offer sheet.

Still too high, but the $7 million per year price tag was laughable. At least it's not that.

Del Zotto, would that be a Rochester player? Or just another sign pointing to a few D men being moved here in Buffalo?

This, we can agree on.
- SDSabre

I was joking before, but this time I mean it. Sabres will be testing out the unconventional zero forward strategy. nothing but 6 activated D Men. F the goalie too. We'll keep them down in Roch

I don't think there's a specific answer to that. Del Zotto is clearly a depth signing (if confirmed), though.

I agree, would not hate him in bottom 6 throwing hits and actually getting points (looking at you Zemgus)

Dahlin/Miller
Montour/Risto
McCabe/Del Zotto
Scandella

Pilut and Bogo are injured. But Pilut is not out long.

This lets Nelson stay in Rochester I do believe as wanted.

But a trade is SCREAMING here too as the wings are very deep too.

Sabres with tons of depth signings! Problem is we don't have enough top 6 players.

I do like what we are doing right now, staying away from big FA signings.

Signing Simmonds will be a top 6 move.

You will be paying him 5+
