My main concern is someone on the Bills catching the virus. Otherwise:

We got 2 days more to prep for TEN while TEN has had one practice in 17 days: Advantage Bills

Instead of playing KC on THU on 3 days rest we now play them Monday on 5 days rest. I know KC has more rest too, but this is hardly screwing the Bills

Thats a concern too. Especially for White who I assume isn’t playing probably because of it.

The other is just the simple fact that the NFL has had to cater to Tennessee, while allowing them to get Healthy, and rescheduling two Bills games with everything in limbo all week.

It just has let down game written all over it

Who do you think Seattle would take out of this list (im going to include both Risto and Miller as possibilities even though one would be protected because I think Ralph prefers Risto to Miller but idk):

Risto
Miller
Gus
Eakin
Lazar
Okposo
- jcragcrumple

Borgen

Why has that ship passed?

What makes Lazar an automatic lock for the 4th line center role?

If they can get Haula on a $2M deal, why not bring him in for the 3rd line center role and have Eakin center the 4th line?
- kingcong39

I hear ya and Haula is a very good player. I don't think they make any more moves until the arbitrations are settled and they know their cap space. Right now, if the three get what we think they'll get we'll be about $3m under the cap. Need to traded a RHD if there's a market to do so. also goalie (Kuemper) is a bigger need right now

I am not saying it is anywhere near a priority, but Lazar being granted the 4th line center job seems premature if you can bring Haula in at a cheap rate, such as $2M for example.
- kingcong39

Can we trade Gus and Eakin to Liinkoping HC so we can sign Soderberg?

Borgen
- TheSabresTaco

Ooh thats a good one. They could protect him and let them choose between Risto and Miller.

The irony being that we won't even know if he can play unless they move one of the aforementioned duo this year so he can get in

For the first time ever, an expansion team passes on taking a player from another team

Why would we want two black hole defensive centers for lines 3/4?
- sbroads24

Why only have one when you can have two...?

Borgen
- TheSabresTaco

Don't think he qualifies as allowed to be selected does he?

Jesus people want Haula at 4c over lazar? Sheesh.

Uh, no. Try again.

Haula would be the 3C and Eakin would be the 4C over Lazar.

They really will be picking through a pile of dookie. If the Sabres move a RHD this offseason, the pickings will be even worse for Seattle

Uh, no. Try again.

- kingcong39

So the name of the game when making a trade or free agent signing is to get the best player to slot in, pushing others down the depth chart, (hopefully) making both lines better than they were before.

Edit: I agree with your comment.

He aint no Gerbe obviously!! Gerbe is MIA btw

Someone said the FAA was looking for him...

It's really a moot practice until the TDL, but they need to see what they have in borgen, this year. Expose him, fat, tall, Ivan Drago, Miller and Asplund. I bet they take a kid.

That Taylor Hall call video today was cool.

He definitely qualifies, being in Rochester for two pro seasons

Uh, no. Try again.

And how does Haula fit the mold of what they're trying to build

Wow time flies, I remember watching him at St. Cloud when he was here in Sioux Falls for the NCAAs, didn't think it was that long ago, but yeah you're def right.

Yeah what the exercise shows me is that they're well-positioned, but if they move a RHD they're essentially flawless, with the added bonus of pushing Borgen onto the lineup as a #7d where he can filter in and we can see if he's any good

How does Eakin?

I love how Irish comes in here yesterday saying a trade is on the horizon, and then disappears...haha!

Are we done?

And what happened to poor gerbe?!? Has anyone seen him? Did Kim find him? Where’s the plane. I’m. Concerned for his safety.

Gerbe posted a very cryptic message after the Hall post insinuating he's either a Pegula, or related to them, which makes sense. So I think it was a mic drop moment for him
