I find it ironic, they pulled back the offer for Nyquist just because they traded for Vesey


doesn't pass the smell test

- homiedclown



They traded for Vesey mid morning.

The offer was pulled back after 12 noon.

Why?
- Slump Buster


From July 2nd to October 9th 2017, there were 8 trades.

Last year there were 14

To expect the Sabres to make more than 2 is unrealistic to me. That's my personal opinion

When I heard the offer was pulled back, I was told it happened about an hour ago

so sometime between 11 and noon

They only really need 2 more trades to get the ball rolling.

They've already made 2, in the last week.

I did not catch the conference call - Did Botts say the Sabres pulled the offer?

I'm hearing from an unnamed, unknown source that Botts is closing in on Rico Fata. Does this have legs?

I'll hang up and take your answer off air, thanks

I think Homie is right. They think Housley was the source of a lot of this team's problems. The Miller and Vesey trades fall under the heading of "nibbling around the edges" to me

The trade was announced by 39 at around 10:15. So I'm sure it happened before that.

So I don't think them acquiring Vesey had a ton of bearing on Nyquist. He could have accepted the deal at 10:45.
