I definitely agree with everything you said. But if the Sabres move Olofsson, stack him with a pick and get someone like, and you'd probably need more, like Konecny. Domi is a black hole of sadness.

Konecny and Gudas would be so (frank)ing cool.

I'm in on that. I know something can happen that doesn't have to cost us a ton. Defense needs help...forwards need a banger. If they can add some experience to the defense that could certainly help the guys in net. Mainly the younger ones.

A nice player for their minor team, fighting for a playoff spot with Rochester.

I've had uppers since Reinhardt's rookie year , maybe 2014.

I think they were

2014 $25
2015 $27
2016 $28
2017 $ 30 but 4% in Sabres bucks
2018 $31
2019 $32
2020 $32
2021 $33

Something similar to this...

The guy hasn't taken a short cut once in his life. He takes the long way around everywhere he plays.

Why change now when its worked out for him every step of the way?

He'll probably take his time in the A as well.

Paul is very critical of the path Levi took, he has mentioned it several times.
Similar in nature to him jumping down Quinn's throat because he is experiencing the same learning pattern here that he did in other places where he graduated to the next level.
It's ok, he just isnt informed on the individual prospects and expects everyone to excel in their 1st year.

Levi went back to challenge himself with being as good or better than last season...to grow by putting pressure on himself and raising his own expectations then meeting/exceeding them
I admire the kid.
He is building his confidence which will serve him well into the future.

Erik Karlsson says he’s had no talks with GM Mike Grier about potentially waiving his no-move clause and isn’t expecting to have any talks about it over the next three days.

Houser is a top 5 goalie in any organization, what are you complaining about

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 🤔

Bought quarter seasons this year, first time I have ever bought a package. Most of my games were not great but even the ones they lost I thought they competed, until the Carolina game. I got my money's worth with my games and I'm happy I went. I don't know if I can swing a full season next year, just with time and other activities, but this is the first time in a while that I don't feel like I'm wasting my time watching games. I might be dramatic when they lose but especially the first half of the season, the Sabres are an entertaining team and at the end of the day entertainment is the point

Sure that’s fine.

The email STH received and the announcement of a pretty sizable increase are directly related imo.

Isn't he Chicago's leading goal scorer? I'm not going to lie I don't know much about him in the context of this season, but from what I remember he plays hard and is scoring on a terrible team. If he could do that here I would be happy. I wouldn't expect Olofsson to get much interest from Chicago however, he's a piece you send to a team in the west who is going all out.

You know who I would love to get as a depth player next season? JT Compher. Call it an infatuation with the what could have been, but he's 27, has 40 points this year, 3.5 million in salary, plays a good game. UFA after this season. Him on our 3rd would look very nice.

Chicago is going all out...just not in the right direction and frankly a guy like OLO would be perfect. Can score but has a terrible defensive game. Basically a good fit for a team that is looking to tank here shortly. Just a thought...

replacing OLO with him on the 3rd line...worth it. Might even make sense on line 2 with DC
- hammatoe

domi has played center all season and actually has been pretty good for the hawks this season.

i don't think the hawks have any interest in OLO. it prolly would be some middling prospect and a pick. if lafferty can get a 2nd, i have to think domi would cost more.

but who the (frank) knows after TB gave up a boatload for a plug.
