What goalies are remaining?

If none worthwhile in FA see what you can get for Fleury

- dmarsden2988


Kuemper
Raanta
Arron dell
Crawford

Some free agents or available in my opinion

I'd be happy with either Arizona goalie

I would also add if UPL starts and is good/great - that would help immensely.

(Trying to be positive here)

if we sign an ahl type goalie, I fully expect hutton to be bought out and 6 k or johansson compete for the open spot with the sabres

Oh yes!

I had to laugh about the whiskey induced coma post...I hit the canibus pen good and had a couple bourbons.

I was told to stop female doging by the guy who comes in to female dog about others female doging, lol.

Meta female doging

This is even more meta. Now we're female doging about female doging about female doging

That's 3 levels of female doging

Yep, that's about as good as a lineup as we can ice right about now. Pretty much exactly how I envision it. IF (big if) Quinn, Cozens, Casey, and Tage can be good/great next year, that lineup isn't so bad. Out of all of them, I see Quinn as making the biggest impact (if he's on the ice with Eichel). Would be nice if Cozens/Casey/Tage live up to their high draft status. If that happens ? That's a pretty decent team next season (IF there's a season !)

I would also add if UPL starts and is good/great - that would help immensely.

With all due respect, take off those rose-colored glasses.

That lineup is a 26th place roster...maybe 22nd if everything goes right.
Factor in Jack getting pissed and his heroic attitude is put on pause...could be closer to a top 3 pick

Well, maybe a better way to say it is...

The Sabres, a goal starved team for the last 4+ years, actively chose to:

A) usher out the door a 0.67ppg player for them ..all over ~ $500k...he who has produced a 25 goals over his 1st 138 games in the league
Yet
B) overpaid a 4th line player who produces at 0.28 ppg and scored 19 goals over the last 141 games

Perspective.

- IonSabres


Again, the tears shed around here for a guy with 25 career goals is ridiculous.

39, broads and stripes were acting like we let danny briere go.

Perspective:

Sabres finally stop signing small mediocre average players for more than they are worth.

A guy we traded sheary and erod for 😀 is worth next to nothing

A guy that played 6 games for the Sabres.
Onto his 4th nhl team now in 130 games.

Lots of used tissues the last 36 hours

Yet you’re estatic over keeping a guy who has been a Sabre for 7 years and has scored 61 goals in almost 500 career games...

Boss will just say whatever they do is great.

Notice how it went from “They need to stop signing small, soft players” to “They need to stop signing small guys *for more than they’re worth*” within 24 hours, after the Sabres sign yet another small, soft Tobias Reider

I don't really mind the signing of Girgs, the thing that bothers me is why did he get a 37% raise.

This is a really funny post 😀

Stripes- you cried more about kahun and his 25 career goals, than I've seen you cry in the past 5 or 6 years I've been on here. (Total)

Somehow I'm the karen? For defending the 2 moves my home town team made.

No kahun
Yes girgensons

You really need to look in the mirror and figure out what a karen is. You were the biggest karen ever the last few days of all Karen's ever.

Repprt me to the manager, Buy some more tissues and move on.

Reider is a good penalty killer though, for whatever that is worth.

If he’s just a warm body in the press box or alternated in and out with Lazar and playing sparingly I don’t mind it

Aaaaaaaaaaaand it begins ...

Look, boss ... i'm with you regarding Kahun - nice player, that's it. But why egg these guys on again ? Now it'll be an entire day of back-and-forth b!tching and moaning - going over the same crap as yesterday. As I type this, i'm sure there's people already arguing with you on the subject - again. It's almost like you woke, plopped yourself down in front of the computer, cracked your knuckles and said "Hhmmm, what kind of sh!t can I start today ? Oh, yeah, the Kahun thing...OK, let's go !!" (type type type)

Sigh. We need a big trade...something we can all agree with and love. Maybe that will make it tolerable in here.

Signing league minimum players vs. Giving kahun 3.5 million like you wanted to yesterday is a ridiculous comparison.

What needs to happen again for you to quit being a Sabres fan? Quit threatening and just talk to the manager. You know you want to.

What a joke.... some kinda fan

So, you like the guy who tries hard but fails because his skill level sucks...over a guy who comes in, tries hard and actually succeeds in producing points.

I would think with what ~$10k spent on ST's you of all people would want guys who can actually produce for relatively cheap ($2.75m) and try hard doing so.
Kahun at 0.18 Goal per game rate
Girgensons at 0.12 Gpg rate

Doesn't stack up.
But whatever.

Kahun is still in play until he signs elsewhere, they still are communicating.

You were at 4 mil yesterday, now at 3.5.

Maybe by Monday you’ll be at the 2.5 he wants and is absolutely worth as opposed to Mr. Latvian Magoo on ice
