Side note, I have to wonder if Vancouvers reputation has taken serious damage for how they are handling this whole situation and what they did to Brucey.

That's cool Boss, and you are probably right. But with him being hot right now, be a good opportunity to get some good value and even a piece in a different area that could help. That's part of the Decisions that will need to be made.
- Buff36


I guess the return for olofsson would sway my decision.

I like upl in net - a lot
Maybe a 4th RD defenseman?
A bigger guy that scores less?
More draft capital?

I'd keep pylonssons and make a run with him, he is playing well. Maybe he was Injured again?

Rich R is truly a less annoying poster then you at times.

He never brings a foolish opinion.

Mahomes/Burrow is the new Brady/Manning.

Josh Allen is Phillip Rivers all over again.

I could be wrong but I don't see Josh Allen having 9 kids.

Trading one the your best goal scorers is not a good franchise move.

I said it before, I'd play out his contract and expect 60 /70 goals this year and next combined.

As a 3rd liner.

It does get annoying, his inconsistency.
I agree, but he always bounces back.
Trust factor for me

- Boss34


As a 3rd liner, VO has given up more 5v5 goals than the top line. It's tough to dismiss that.

A lot of Bills fans would have sold their souls to Satan himself for Rivers, back in the day.

Sabres need Tage to come alive again.
Is he gripping his stick like Boss grips his Gagelsson doll?

Isn't it great when 6 points in 9 games is a cold streak?

The biggest loss of the season wasn't Hyde, it wasn't Von Miller, it was Brian Daboll...


10 points in the playoffs is inexcusable.

That's why they need to let the entire staff go and hire Shane Steichen, Stripes!

I really do want to think that Dorsey can improve from this, but it's tough. Going with a first-year playcaller in the middle of a supposed Super Bowl window definitely hurt them.

Isn't the top line playing against defensive players?

Shutdown lines generally play defense, not offense.

Tough comparison

Absolutely agree, dorsey should be better next season.
Can't say the same about Frazier.
