You're all talking about different players

Homie meant erod
Hubie thought he was talking about Johansson
You're talking about Skinner

- jcragcrumple


I was confused.
Thought hubie was talking about paying a winger 9 million.

Denver Broncos All-Pro pass rusher Von Miller did a good job talking up Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen in advance of Sunday’s game at New Era Field.

Miller put Allen in elite company — for an unexpected trait — on a conference call with Buffalo-area media Thursday.

“He can escape the pocket, and it’s a challenge to get him down in the open field,” Miller said. “He’s 6-7. He’s got a mean stiff arm like Bo Jackson.”


This is hilarious to me because I joked Allen being Buffalo's Bo Jackson at 2C for the Sabres

Get the man some skates!

I’d take Bo Jackson now at 56 as our 2c vs ERod

If you get 49pts for an off side then I’d say in the next few games for sure

I think it could be a while before Mitzy hits 50 points. And that may not happen at center either.
I’m fine with keeping Cozens away from the Sabres for this year and perhaps next as well. No sense ruining him by being around this group.

There's really no point to Cozens going back to juniors again. He's almost a lock to be here.

He gave skinner the worst contract in the league a year later
- Fattony1187


I think a couple things happened contract wise

1) you can’t let 40 goal scorers just walk for free. The Sabres need goals and he had 40.

2) this was before the salary cap stayed the same. Botts banked on the cap going up. (Other teams did the same. Look at the Kevin Hayes flyers deal and a couple more)

When the salary cap came out and free agency started, the price of contracts went down.

TSN 1050 interview with Dubas was solid.

Schopp and Bulldog should take notes.

We have much bigger issues than Skinner and his contract. Where do I start?

You're threading a fine needle as the guy who loves Botterill and does not like the Skinner contract

Are all the players coming in next year going to be way better than the ones leaving after this year? Is this a certainty?

Jeremy Jacobs made sure Delaware North stocked the Godden press box with plenty of brown paper bags knowing the biggest putz, beady eyed, fraidy cat of a GM would be in attendance and hyperventilating by the end of the 1st period.

I have to listen to Jack Edwards tonight. If Buffalo plays like they have been, I may smash my TV.
