Berglund is not comparable to Haula at all... Sobotka is nothing close to anything we Flordia got either. And Thompson was their 5th or so best prospect.

You're right. Haula has only had 1 20 goal season.

Per @PierreVLeBrun, Patrick Marleau to PIT pending trade call.

NO, still leaves our biggest need

It's not even noon and there are deals going left and right

Not like the last two deadlines it feels

The last two years things happened the week leading up to the deadline and then right at the deadline

San Jose with all there star power won nothing.

Bonus was a joke. Our owner could've afforded it. Organization was upset O'Reilly was moping around so they traded him. We obviously should've just paid the bonus oh well.. Just an interesting tweet.
- bluengold12

The bonus wasn't paid and it was Botts decision. Every decision he has made for the Sabres since he got here was to save on the bottom line. Prove me wrong. You can't.
He thinks he needs to manage an NHL team like it is a Fortune 500 company. The franking putz has no clue. He is a complete franking beady eyed straight edge A-1 moron.

That Karlsson contract is going to kill them

Haula had one nice season in vegas but he's basically a 20 goal scorer. Berglund had 40 goals in the two seasons before coming to Buffalo. They are fairly comparable.

I said TT was a decent prospect, not elite. I still think he can be a decent 15 goal scoring power third liner in the league. We will see.

Detroit.

I figured that would be the case.. Maybe if we through in a 2021 2nd or 1st

Not going to throw something out the window the entire NHL uses.

Sure understood but it’s only one part of what is considered. Some of the most talented players in the world have high stats and Corsi scores and on and on but are not wanted by teams for other reasons like attitude etc.
Every prospect is interviewed by team committees and one question they probably never ask is how’s your stats looking.

Nashville re-signs Grimaldi. 2 years. $4 million.

DAMMIT, BOTTS!

Do something Darcy!

He's a nice depth player. He's a little tasmanian devil

Marleau 40 years old and he gets a 3rd

He's done, no big deal.

Third-round pick to San Jose. The pick becomes a second-rounder if Pittsburgh wins the Cup.

Sheary should get us a 3rd. He has good playoff experience.

And he's 40 yrs old. Talk about desperate.

Marleau 40 years old and he gets a 3rd
- SABRES 89

Marleau is a nice, experienced 560 goal scoring vet with tons of respect, who's played in a gazillion playoff games.

Something our team is lacking in.

Botterill will sell to buy, i've said that before. Stock pile a few picks to move later.

And he's 40 yrs old. Talk about desperate.
- SABRES 89

Should have sent them Vesey or Sheary
