Why would they do this?
How can they force him to have surgery?

did adams ever talk to you about the notes and/or hints you've been leaving in his driveway?

I've never actually had a face to face interaction with him, other than a few waves and a handshake a few months ago.

It suprises me how fans turned on risto.

During the worst decade in hockey history, he showed up and brought it every game. Game in game out.

Not very buffalo... blue collar town.

Great28 as well. You watch 100 different veseys, beglunds , Johanssons ect role thru here, but can't respect effort guys?

Strange times, the losing has everyone hating everything

- Boss34


I think everyone appreciated the effort and attitude that Risto brought every day. That was never a question.

He was overused in terms of minutes and competition level and overpaid for what he brought to the ice.

You know this. You know all of this.

Huge tunnel being dug in between Ohio and Perry street.
From what I know, it's for electric and fiber optics.
I'm hearing that the stadium is going to be built downtown.

As a 38 year project superintendent, I think it's the wrong place for the stadium for many reasons.
Cost being the biggest reason.
The cost for infrastructure just to accommodate traffic in and out of that stadium is going to be astronomical.
The infrastructure downtown as it is currently constructed, is not even close to being able to accommodate traffic for a 70,000 seating capacity stadium.

We need more bottom 6 forwards like Fabio's kid we just claimed so the rebuild can take another 10 years.

The sum of those parts proved to me that culture is real. And I was never a culture guy.

He doesn’t mind the windshield notes as much as he does the “ice cream” trail Taco always leaves down his driveway.

I have answered it, but you keep laying out these scenarios where he gets healthy without surgery.
- Lunaion


Eichel = 100% surgery.

No team will pass him for a physical, then obviously the only option is surgery.

Could you answer "it" again?
Why do we need to trade eichel now? Yes I'm aware of the pending nmc

claiming guys on waivers means you're going to keep him in the NHL. He's not really an NHL player, and he's not better than any of our top 6 D.
- TheSabresTaco


Ok thank you 🌮

If he clears waivers. he remains chicago property and will probably end up in the ahl?

There was never a better solution to playing him less or paying him less. How's that on risto? Guy definitely coughed up the puck a bunch, but still. Never a better replacement ...


Not 1 defenseman could dethrone the champ.
They even picked a defenseman #1 overall and are now paying that unproven player more than risto ever made in a season.

I respect your post ☝️

Erods probably the only guy with another shot of playing in buffalo. Although he was rumored to request a trade?

How many games are you gonna go to this season baller?

The stadium is going to be considerably smaller. Probably 50,000-55,000.

The prices, pandemic, vaccines and everyone's new Bill's cave is going to cut the attendance way down.

Hard time filling the stadium the last 2 weeks.
Lots of free tickets floating around ...

assuming covid is the thing of the past next year

and no vaccine card needed


they could fill 100,000 fans in a stadium


between canadians not being able to come, and the non vaxers on the outs, it's a phase that will be outgrown in 10 months, if everything goes well


the bills facebook pages turned into stub hub since they had to have the shot
