Look what it did did for Mitts, no way you put Cousins in the same bad situation and make him your number 2 Center.

Cousins is a different player, mitts is a bit mentally and physically soft, cousins isn’t that. But, you are right in that he won’t be rushed. Oloffson spent all last season in Rochester for instance

It's a different situation altogether. If Cozens finishes top-5 in points, which he probably will, there's no use sending him back.

I dont know about the eligibility for him to play in Europe. Maybe that's a path for him, but it would be a waste of time for him to play in the WHL again and he can't play in the AHL

He's a horrible hockey player and lazy, you think he's going to be any different coming here for the Pens? no way. We aren't going to be able to dump Bogo off on the Pens for him unless the Pens get yet another injury.

It’s nice when the broncos are playing cuz pegulaville isn’t here yapping about skinner. He may be here soon though as it seems the broncos haven’t shown up in Kc

He won’t play in Europe. Probably protected 3rd line minutes in the nhl. He’s got size, skill, speed and a bit of nastiness. Mitts doesn’t have all that

Toffoli is a LW, we don't need another LW. Gally's biggest complaint is that he wants to play Center, been complaining about it since his days with the Habs. I'd take a chance on Frolic but do they take Bogo is the question.
- SABRES 89



Toffoli is a right shot right wing that just plays left once in awhile. Galchenyuk is also far from lazy. He is quite snake bitten but his issue in Pittsburgh is he always gravitates towards centre ice making it easy for one dman to cover Galch plus his centreman. Malkin and Crosby both hate that so he stuck on a checking line, even with all the injuries.

Palms is from jersey doubt you are prying him away for peanuts...

Lets be honest he is a 30 goal guy on a good team its going to cost you a first for certain he has term left.

No he's a lazy hockey player that's been traded 3 times now and complained his whole time with the Habs.

HE is the most polarizing QB I have seen play in years. He will have 400 yard games with 4 TD and 4 INT and lose 45-42

Looking at their stats, looks like it's coming from the defense and goaltending. No one is exactly lighting it up offensively. I wonder if Taylor gets an NHL gig after this year

It's different player/s every night. One night it's Malone or Murray and another night it's Ogelvie or Dea. And then some nights it's the goaltending. And they were playing well when Taylor was in Buffalo but since he's been back they have really hit their stride.

Ex Sabre Vladimir Tsyplakov passed way, age 50.

Some of you might remember him from their cup run in 1999. He scored 33 points in 70 games for the Sabres. Apparently, he has had health issues over the last several years.
