He's the 1C of the present. Doesn't he have to negotiate from that position?

1 year sample, 20th in scoring for centers


he can ask for 9 mil

sabres can throw 6 mil


all I care is a long term gets done without arbitrators ever getting involved right now

8 year 7 mil seems right on long term deal but that IMO puts the sabres at more risk then tage


if tage puts up 45 points next year or gets hurt, he becomes a 5 mil player so the risk is off the table if the long term deal gets done this summer

Now you’ve done it. He has to be up there on that list. Who else would there be? Roy, myers, risto?

Vanek is a tough one. Talented as all hell but had the lazy to match it.

Best goalie sabres have had in 20years or more.
At one time sabres could draft goalies and develop them. Now it seems to be a loss art.

All sounds about right. They'll probably just wait a year, but have to hope they start those discussions.

Up until he left the Sabres never had a stretch of more than like 1 season without a true starter since they joined the league. We all took it for granted and it was mentioned many times after he left that it wasn’t a worry it always works out for the Sabres. At least I know I said. I’m eating crow

And it’s barely over 20 years because of that guy named hasek. Ever heard of him

Yeah, no one here did, you took it upon yourself to use "Boss" as a moniker

As for me, I'm unoriginal, but I'm not going to call myself "Fat Slob Frank" on here just because people call me that

Yes he was not developed in the sabres system. He was stolen from Chicago! I think we was the 3nd or 4th goalie in their system.

My theory is the pizza delivery guy is actually the ring leader of the gang and he uses the pizza job as a scouting cover. He picked the house for the other two wet bandits and used his presence as a diversion from the obviously low-rent uniform Joe Pesci wore. His presence added a layer of confusion and later provided him an alibi on the night of the robbery as he was "delivering pizzas"

That pizza guy cased the whole damn neighborhood and he got away scot free
