Girgs for sure, I think KO would be asked if he wanted to and he might decline. Just my opinion of course.
- SDSabre


Good thought

Maybe they both decline, although I think you brought up a good point in regards to okposo.

Has a young family and is a full time buffalo resident.

I'm thinking he retires a sabre, but if we're bad again at the deadline, I'd expect both to be moved, kyle resigning hopefully.

Agreed, but Minnesota needs more impact ELC players, not less, right?
- kingcong39

Yes understand that, there would have to be a ELC going back.

no chance

I have as much hope as anyone but the only reason to be a buyer is if you think they are a cup team in mid Feb

- homiedclown


I disagree. That's peg'sville thinking, all or nothing.

Sabres can afford a 2nd rounder, just to push for the playoffs. Were kinda in a tough spot, with the longest non playoff streak ever at 12+ ...


Definitely not mortgaging the future either for a 9th place run.
A 2nd isnt gonna hurt the future IMO

* there's a serious selling tickets issue, basic hockey choices are kinda out the window with this franchise.

Lol.
You called me "petty" for expressing the exact same feelings towards Toronto fans!
Now you admidt to doing so towards Rags fans and for harboring the same feelings for 17sh years towards Carolina.
You are beautiful.

Yeah, it is petty

Signing mr. Hockey would bring a splash at the boxoffice

Hypothetically, would you rather have Johnny or pk88.

So this is the best example of why he was unlistenable? The guy completely changed the way football games are explained - the telestrator was only a minor part of this.
- Slump Buster


The way Tony Romo explains football is quality
The way Madden did it was clumsy & fit for children

Agree to disagree

Marching to 8th, or a few points back of 8th ...

We need to make the playoffs. We need the experience, so we can take another step the next season.

Kinda like Florida. Sucks they lost (for them) , but they added some experience throughout the entire lineup.

Maybe we play them in the 1st round next season.
Regular season championship 🤔

They shouldn’t be in the rental market, but hockey deals are made at the deadline as well.

I’d never say never

- Pegullaville


Solid post.
No rental...a pending UFA they intend to resign; absolutely.
Realistically speaking, the bigger moves are made in the offseason.
