Oh wow. I had no idea he’s been on the block for over a year. Jeeze that is bad.

Adams didn’t even do that with Eichel
- Sabretooth9

He's a complicated asset. Great contract, below average term, inflated market.. the juice isn't worth the squeeze in two years, and he's a UFA instead of RFA. He's good in the o zone, not so great in his own end. And apparently he doesn't/can't take direction/coaching well. So. Yeah I can see the value of the player being widely varied.

I don't think so either. Especially the way this org runs. If they do free up a forward spot this summer, you'll get an idea of what they're thinking.
- TheSabresTaco

I think Adams brings in a defensemen before the trade deadline, someone with term remaining

If he leaves Boosh, Bryson and Clague as the 5/6/7 its gonna be tough to make the playoffs and even worse if someone gets injured.

Must beat the Panthers and Washington, key games in the race for the playoffs.

Washington maybe but Florida they've lost 6 straight Sabres can't handle teams that play with structure

Edit: I misread the thread.

Nothing to see here.

Careful, Aaron:

Criticizing Holl can get you banned in the Leafs thread.

It might

Panthers arena has some good offerings up on the club level. If anyone is there this Friday’s showdown, you have to have a carved turkey sammitch. The Man slices it right off the carcass and loads it on your choice of bread.. Best food I’ve ever had a sporting event. A little pricy, but when compared to prices for the normal arena fare of hot dogs, chicken fingers, etc, it’s a well worth it. LoL, every time I go to game, I must have one. Get to his stand early, as the line gets way long.

havana nights in the tampa arena has some damn good food

make sure you grab some garlic fries

With 4 UFAs this year

Lets say Johnson signs and makes the team next year

That leaves 3 spots open up for grabs.

Entertaining the theory that Kulich and or Savoie makes it that leaves 1 spots open.

Girgs and Okposo coming off the books along with Anderson and Vinny

Its very unlikely Kulich or Savioe will see the NHL.

I could also see Okposo and Girgs getting resigned

Thats also if we don't add anyone at the deadline for prospect/picks.
- sabresfan69

Can they just make Okposo a development coach or something guy is skating in sand out there

YES!

I'm glad there's a new generation of hockey fans that get to experience Kadri and Gardiner again. When you get to close the computer at the end of the day and your eyes are bleeding after 100s of Kadri Gardiner and a 2nd for Erik Karlsson and Mark Stone trade offers.. well.. that's what I call a beautiful life.

He hasn't been on the block.

Leafs fans have wanted him on the block, but there's been no actual trade talk.
- Atomic Wedgie

Media has been talking about him being traded since last deadline but Arizona just didn't like the offers so they held onto him until the summer. Again didn't like the draft deals so held onto him again for this deadline.

Good to know.

As Habs fan, please beat the Panthers, we need them to miss the playoffs and give MTL the highest 1st possible. Helps you, helps us, we are all happy

It's funny how all fanbases tend to think some 'good players' are worth everyone elses gold and essentially "just need a change of scenery".

He wont. I would bet money on it. Vinny would get called up.

Kulich needs to stay where he belongs and we don't need to screw with his development.
- sabresfan69

If Buffalo falls out of the race Why would Vinny get called up. I would think they would want the kids getting the experience and taste.

I misread the thread - thought we were still talking about Holl.

heading to indian rocks in april. need a recommendation for a few restaurants in the area.

Keep Jost and you lose Anderson, Girgensons, Okposo.

The org likes those guys because of what they give on and off the ice. Girgensons probably comes back. Kyle, 30/70 he does. But I don't think you're bringing in one of those prospects to be on a checking line. You're probably shopping for an Okposo replacement. UPL and Comrie will be in net in 23-4 without a trade there. The Ass man is probably gone with Bjork. Ruotsalainen still exists. Without trades, there's no room for new bodies. Ya know, unless you want to play bench carousel again.
- TheSabresTaco

Common thought that's been discussed a lot is that they are moving away from a checking line entirely. End of the LOG era. Might be another year, but it does feel like that day is coming.

We used to have Ennis, Weber and a 2nd.

Here in this forum I don't think the offers (serious ones) have been too off. HFBoards is a cocaine bear in a zoo full of children.

stop

you clearly hate the guy




he is plus 8 on a dumpster fire team and the only guy close to him is the legend known as Bjugstad

You need 3 guys who can handle hard minutes and can score. Or 4 ferraris and an excellent goalie and win 6-3. I don't know any teams that don't have a few lock down guys. I suppose it's possible.

Need to sign Nick Bjusted first

- Buff36

First off no one gets a call up because the roster is full.

I assumed you meant because of an injury.

You need to waive someone to call up Kulich otherwise.

As it is Buffalo is juggling the roster.

Ryder/Halak and 2nd...or RH2 for the regulars, the good old time, this package could land you just about any star in the league
