He wants to get paid ….. if it was about winning. He would’ve signed with the chiefs or hills already and called it a day
- Sabretooth9

Who Hopkins ? Yes he does, the Bills have talked with Him they just can't get to a number he wants right now and Beaner doesn't want to kick the can at this point anymore. Gonna be eating a lot of money from Allen’s contract reworks the next couple years, cause there gonna have to rework him again next year. Philadelphia, Chicago, Arizona have all called on Oliver so could be away to open up 10mill and move a guy who thinks he's gonna get a Donald money.

There seems to be a correlation between posters who are hating on Murray while simultaneously defending Okposo.

Do people actually think Okposo is a good player or do you guys feel bad for him for requiring a lobotomy to endure Buffalo winters?

Don't feel sorry for him, feel sorry for the Fans that have to watch him try and play hockey anymore. Guy made like 190 thousand a point in Buffalo, he got rich here.

I have never felt bad for him, it’s a genuine question to those who think he actually deserves to not only play in the nhl but be a captain. They also say he is not blocking a roster spot…then im seeing lineups shared with Rousek or other Amerks as 13th forward.

It's actually sad if the kids on the team believe KO is their leader. Tells me they all buy in to follow a guy who made money for nothing and the chicks were free. Not a bad idea for a song

Unless the Cowboys ate the whole contract, the Bills would have a 35mill Dead cap hit this year, Bills can't afford that. And Dallas probably isn't giving a 1st to eat that contract.
- Buff36

Well that sucks. That hit doesn’t change now that we’re past June 1st? Bills at mercy of his attitude if not.

Oliver is the king of making a big play in the 1st quarter then you don’t see him for the rest of the game. I just don’t think they have enough DT depth to trade him.

Agreed, especially after releasing Bryant yesterday to make room for Shell.

Trade Mittelstadt and the problem is mostly solved. Good teams don't worry about the cap implications of adding elite players, they figure it out
- Hank Balling


$9-10m on a goalie.
No thanks.

Go get a 1st or 2nd Pairing Defenseman, implement a sound Defensively aware system and get a servieceable Goalie at 50% of that cost.

Refs have let a lot of rough stuff go all series. Amerks couldn’t play their slick, speedy game. Bigger, nastier will win this one, but Rochester has nothing to be ashamed of, especially Subban who was strong all playoff long.
- PrinceChill


This is THE takeaway that Adams and Co must have.
Having a roster filled with lightweights does have negartive consequences...oh, and Goaltending...just get a good one...

Edit ...doesn't have to be the best one

The Sabres don’t own the arena …. Erie county does. Pegula years ago tried to buy and Erie county said no.

Delaware North does the food / beverage

That is not on the pegulas. But good try

At this point, the county, which has an arena lease with the Sabres that expires in 2025, is not planning to put any funding toward renovations at the arena.

“Under the current lease, it is the responsibility of the team owner to do that,” said Peter Anderson, a spokesman for Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz.

Lol this is funny.

Brett murray is an even worse grinder than Okposo currently is.

Okposo is 1 year deal , He’s a leader that the players like, and He also helped turned around the entire culture while he was here post Eichel.

Okpsoo gets the benefit of the doubt over brett Murray who will never play in the nhl ever. He is that bad

I am not in construction. But from the 100 level to the 300 level. It all needs a complete gut job and to be redone.

At what point does pegula push for a new arena? It’s gross and stuck in 1990s

I didn’t see him called up this year ….. he was also called up during Covid years. At one point the Sabres had an ahl team playing basically due to Covid.

So good try 😂😂

Ok, I'll buy in on the post Eichel culture change for a couple minutes...
What say you about the years Okposo kept his mouth shut and allowed Eichel to bully the team?
Where was this leadership then?

Your last
Good Try didn't work out so well.
So 6 points in 21 games paces out at 24 points in 84, so lets call it 23pts in 82 gms.

Were there any players on the Sabres roster last year that had less ?

I really would like to hear more of the chirps between opponents, though.

Like when Montour set Maroon off by calling him Fat Pat. That was funny
