You aren't even from buffalo , Canadian fitz.

Tell us more about the 2nd hand stories of terrell Davis.


You are %100 wrong , of course you'll never admit it.

Multiple teams offering 1st round picks for risto 👍
- Boss34

And that’s great that they were. That does not mean that Risto doesn’t suck.

KAGM though Eakin was good last offseason too, how did that work out ?

Golden Knights haven't been mentioned yet with regards to Eichel.

They could be the dark horse here.
- sabresfan69

Vegas has been talked about, just not a lot
They don’t have the great young pieces to keep up with the other teams we talk about more
Krebs just won’t be enough
And their 1sts would presumable be at the bottom of the round in future years

Maybe if they added Tuch it gets interesting….
but what else do they throw in???

I thought defenseman are suppose to play defense? How many of those are PP points. Actually would love to know. He did have some heavy point first few years
- ZiggyBuff

Yes, statistics.

The statistics showing him 19th in scoring by defenseman over the past 6 years.

How can you say that the stats are agaisnt him?

Sure, some.....

Scoring is very important

Who cares?

All wrong
- Michael Pachla

Sure you win Risto is god

Buchnevich to STL for Blais and a 2nd in 2022

Isn't this one of the "main" pieces Rangers fans had in an Eichel trade

IF drury is playing a game of chicken with Adams, drury is about to get ran the (frank) over

So is defending

If only the Risto lovers would follow him out to Philly.
- Pegullaville

The Borgen superfans can head to Seattle then

And the crybabies still upset we lost Kahun can follow him wherever since EDM doesn’t want him back

Sure you win Risto is god

Don’t even argue. Just bookmark the thread.

This will be gold 12 months from now.

I promise you.

Just a weird feeling that's all...a typical Buffalo fan
- Stripes77

Oh. I get it…. Still very uneasy. I just don’t want Jack in the east and certainly NOT in NY.

I don’t like what they have and it feels like giving Jack exactly what he wants (other than Boston, which f Boston harder)…

F the RAGS

Yes Boss. I am smarter than Fletcher, trying knowing his name.

I would have never done such a bonehead trade. And go look on social media, people want him fired for the trade
- Mentalorgasm5

I'll be trying knowing his name, smart guy.

Really, dude.

When you start a sentence self proclaiming your intelligence, finish it properly kid 😀😀😀😀

What an amazing trade. Just awesome

per Scott Wheeler

1. Nils Höglander, LW, 20 (Rögle BK/Vancouver Canucks)

I’ve taken some heat from Canucks fans for being slightly higher on Höglander than Podkolzin, especially in the early days after the draft when most were enamoured with Podkolzin (even though I had Höglander ranked higher before the Canucks ever picked the two of them). So I can’t lie: It has been fun to watch Höglander get some shine (or at least more) recently. He’s a fun, entertaining player. When he has the puck, he’s got a skill set that can crack up a shift in a split second. He possesses an impressive ability to stop and start to change pace or directions with control. He’s got high-end hands that allow him to play through sticks and make things happen around the crease. And when he doesn’t have the puck, he’s a feisty, energetic 5-foot-9 winger who plays bigger than he is, stays on the puck, finishes his checks, and gets up and under sticks to win back possession. Though he lacks a separation gear in transition as a skater, the rest of his game is enough to warrant a second-line projection and power play use.

I have not seen a single person mention him in the past 8 months other than you.

Kevin Adams is best GM in Sabres history he won't let that happen

And that’s great that they were. That does not mean that Risto doesn’t suck.

- Pegullaville

Regardless, would you admit that risto brought in more value than borgen?

Probably not

Oh poop, Boss34 is talking on WGR right now

Jouni Nieminen
@OnsideWithJouni
Rasmus Ristolainen told Timo Kunnari that ”he will not show his ass towards Buffalo” He loved the city and has great friends there. Felt he was part of the reason they lost a lot. And now excited as hell to join the Flyers

The Buffalo Sabres club the Philadelphia Flyers in trade, Sabres fans club each other.

For reals, it's not like we don't know where everyone stands on Risto specifically, and most players in general. I'm much more interested in getting Hank to do the blog about secondary players he promised if we got another first. Where you at Hank? I need me some Lysell talk.

I'll be trying knowing his name, smart guy.

Really, dude.

- Stripes77

Yep
Also, NyR didn’t get much at all back for Buchnevich
Especially considering what a good season he had last year

That eliminates any chance NyR gets Jack….
Unless they include some of the guys they keep saying are off limits

I’m ok with that
Never really liked the NyR prospects/kids anyways

- Mentalorgasm5

I'm probably the only poster who still finds this funny.

Take the L

"Worst defenseman in the league"

13th OA, 2nd rounder and a nhl 6th defenseman with grit.

😉

Regardless, would you admit that risto brought in more value than borgen?

Probably not
- Boss34

I never said to not protect Risto for the purposes of a trade.

Would I have liked to have kept Borgen ? Yes he would have been a great replacement for 1/5th the cost.

The Sabres lost a perfectly good d-man for no reason apart from the fact they didn’t trade Risto for the past 3 offseasons

Would you admit that is the case ? Probably not

Really don’t want to see Eichel go to Montreal, unless the return is absolutely massive.

The Risto trade makes Borgen expendable.
