Hurts a lot less this season. At least 5 huge memorable games this season at home. Maybe more?

Also, keep an eye out for your playoff ticket deposit soon 🤔

Sabres signed Michael Houser and placed him on waivers…

The Legend of Houser is on waivers today. Perhaps they want to sign him to an NHL deal. Not sure if that's how that works but it's the only thing I can think of.

Nope , just had this personally emailed to me from Kynyn Adams himself.

Maybe just full time season ticket holders like me and hubie.

I'm guessing you step up to full time next year?

They signed him and placed him on waivers. Don’t understand why they signed him they already have 3 goalies under NHL deals. Now he’s the 4th.

Yeah for professionals without NHL contracts, this is how you get them to an NHL/AHL two way deal.

Because Buffalo has trash luck and wants insurance and it doesn't cost them like anything to do this.

Or he earned it who the (frank) knows, he'll back up Subban and that will be that.

The question is: what else does Chicago have to add to Patrick Kane to get this deal done?

perhaps Subban either has, or in the event Subban is injured, and everyone in Buffalo is injured, Doogie can come up.

It's purely insurance.

Why they didn't do this in July idfk

Also it was just announced tickets are going up 9-10% for next year

I’m sure that email thanking fans though is just super coincidental……

That letter from Adams tells me he's content to punt on the rest of the year. Expect Kale Clague 2.0

Bet they just say flexibility, but could mean someone isn't healthy. This has been an injury prone group, could just be a safe move.

UPL or Comrie going down, right before rosters expand would be odd...unless they need a roster spot for a deal.

I'm not sure what you think you read but that doesn't even come close to what he just said.

He's pandering for renewals and states for the billionth time that this team has more growing to do.

I have zero problem with prices. I would gladly pay top dollar for a top experience. I say double the beer prices and make hotdogs, fries, and pop $2 an order.

That would be an interesting experiment, but I'm not sure $2 per even covers cost anymore...

When he says he going to build it the "right" way I read 7/8 defenseman at the deadline and nothing else. Comrie and UPL next season. Am I wrong?

my guess is probably.

he's not going big game hunting with premium assets (probably) but I will bet he uses some secondary assets to acquire a useful player or two.

goalie i don't know but i'd be pretty upset if he rolls into 23 with Comrie and UPL. Then we have to listen to this 'we believe in them' bullpoop
