Should be cheaper than Meier at least. If even available
- DirtyDan


Might be as expensive, or even more expensive considering Buchnevich would not need a new deal at $9M per.

Where, that’s where I live now, roughly sr64 and Lakewood Ranch BLvd.
Moving in Sept up over the Bradenton River into Parrish

- IonSabres

Moving into that area (for 5 months at least) in about 3 years. Want to live nearer to Sarasota but pay Manatee Cty taxes.

Too many kids !

I thought he only has 1 year left but its 2 after this year.

What's his injury ? Depending on that you're probably right on it being as expensive.

You can put the $5.8M to better use then what this guy has been doing the past 2.5 seasons?

https://www.capfriendly.c.../players/pavel-buchnevich

Question: Do you want Cozens to continue to play 3rd or 4th line 5v5 minutes?

If not, Buchnevich would be an ideal addition, from many aspects.

How much it would cost in a trade would hurt though.

Hey, Sabres may relocate with the mass exodus from NYS lol.
Bradenton/Sarasota is very, very well represented with former and Snowbird Buffalonians. Would be an excellent fit

Ryan O’Reilly and Pavel Buchnevich (Inj) are to resume skating during the current break. One of the biggest issues this season has been finding players who can establish chemistry and play with O’Reilly. Buchnevich could be that guy coming out of the break. #stlblues

Yes, of course.
But that is two different places, so Dad has 1 in each?
Hint: Take the St Armand’s Property, lol. Although Persia area is nice.

- IonSabres


Yes, so dad bought a condo in 2020 right before covid hit in kingston arms right behind vernona restaurant . Absolutely love the area we have visited the last few years and go out in august.
Then he actually just closed on a house on peridia golf course like 2 weeks ago.

hes 72 years old so armands isnt his scene obv hes been golfing at peridia for a few years and always wanted a spot and he found one and ran with it...... sent me a photo of him at the club house last week... at 78 he said he was probably the youngest one there lol

I think reputation around the league is a lot different than reputation on hockey Twitter or Hb.

Buchnevich is a really good player but he was traded for peanuts last time despite performing well in NY.

I don’t think he’s as valuable to teams as Timo is

His contract situation is quite different then Timo's.

That could be the equalizer.

Awesome, sounds like St Armand’s is it for ya…NICE!!
I’m buying into a Del Webb 55+ community and was initially concerned a bit that is would fill with old foggies. Not so though. House just started so, 8 months is a good target for move in date. I’m pretty pumped.

Is the Rsh guy related to a certain concrete pouring, loverboy poet that used to be on here ?

Now I remember why I left…

I absolutely love the food choices. Restaurants everywhere! Phillipi Creek, Tide Tables are a few favorites.

Fresh seafood is the best.

For me ill have to think where do I want to live vs where do I want to vacation. Like yes when im down for a week ill eat out every day but when i live there i wont be.

the new villa at peridia has a lil office room that I can work from. Figure I wouldn't realistically move full time for another 10 years at least my son is in 2nd grade. So ill be at least 50.

Most people we wont into and chat with at the circle seem to always be from lakewood ranch

Looks like Del Webb is a "newer" version as peridia and Del Webb looks right up my alley

Rsh won't be around here for a while

That being said, would it kill people to be civil and to keep any politics off this board?

You'd listen?

He's basically a 30 goal, nearly PPG player the past 3 seasons, making less than $6M per, at age 27 going on 28, and he has 2 seasons left on his deal.

He's an ideal addition to the top 6, especially for Cozens line, unless you want Cozens to continue playing 4th line 5v5 minutes.

His contract ending after the next 2 seasons also fits the timeline of the next wave of young players.

What won't work is just how much St. Louis will expect in a trade, as it will be a lot.

- kingcong39


yes. i'd listen. i dont know the cost and i can tell you that the team needs more help on D than on O.

It’s a maturity issue. Considering the ages of the usual suspects my guess is if they haven’t become an adult by now, it’s not ever going to change.
