  1. I was just about to say the same thing.
  2. Here is a method that supposedly works to pre order an Xbox, if you feel like putting in the effort (it’s the gold post a few comments down. Let me know if you want to try it but can’t find it). Figured I’d share just in case.
  3. Wow, what a play! This has been a fun game
  4. No surprise there. Seemed like a foregone conclusion he was going to Vegas after the Blues signed Krug. I think this currently puts LV about $7M over the salary cap. A trade or two are definitely coming. edit- that didn’t take long.
  5. watch this interview and tell me you’re not excited for this kid to be a Buffalo Sabre! What a great interview.
  6. I honestly can’t believe he picked the Sabres. This is such a huge signing. A motivated Hall is a game changer for the whole team. He almost single handedly dragged the devils to the playoffs a couple seasons ago in his MVP season. And this has to boost the entire teams morale. Especially Eichel. I was legit worried this would be his last season in buffalo, but not anymore! Not only do we have a legitimate top 6, it’s actually a pretty damn good one! Eichel, Hall, Skinner, Staal, Reinhart, Olofsson. Those are all actually legitimate top 6 caliber forwards. Not guys forced into higher roles than they should be in. Legit top 6 players. We also have a decent bottom 6. Reider should hopefully help improve the PK. Eakin should help add some scoring to the bottom 6 and IMO gives us a legit #3 C (assuming he rebounds from his down year last season, which I think he will). Then if we get any contributions from Cozens, Mittelstadt, Thompson, Asplund... and add in some expected growth from Dahlin + a second year in Krueger’s system... this could potentially be the best Sabres team we’ve had in years. I’m actually excited for the season now. I was getting closer and closer to totally checking out every day. Still some work to be done, but overall I’m pretty damn happy so far.
  7. Holy ****!!!! I’m in shock! Hall really does love Krueger after all. Said a few times over the years that he was the best coach he’s ever had.
  8. nice pickup by the devils. Shrewd move. This is the type of move I want the Sabres to make (not this specific trade since I don’t see the leafs doing this trade in the division). I’d actually like to see Kevyn Adams make a couple moves like this. This seems like a truly unique opportunity to pick up good players from other team for nothing but cap space. And we actually have some cap space to take advantage of this situation. I sure hope Adams uses this opportunity. And I hope the Pegula’s let him. Just look at all the players that have basically been given away in the last few days. If there was ever a time to weaponize our cap space, it’s now.
  9. takes him right to UFA.
  10. He was pretty decent in Dallas and Vegas. Had 22g a couple seasons ago. Down year last year. It fills a need. He plays C and should definitely add a bit more offense to our bottom 6. I’ve read he’s good in the locker room too.
  11. listening to this interview (especially the second half) doesn’t exactly leave me hopeful that we are going to be seeing any major changes to this team.
  12. Edit: done deal. I figured he must have wanted out of buffalo when he signed in AZ for that price. But then John Vogl retweeted this: somewhat puzzling if true.
  13. these: https://www.thealmondtree.com/product/cashews-honey/ They are amazing.
  14. why? 🤷‍♂️ Meh. Decent 4th liner, good on the PK. Not too impressed with Kevyn Adams signings so far. Nothing he’s done so far outside of the Staal trade has moved the needle at all. Still holding out hope though. Lots of good UFA’s left. Lots of potential trade targets.
  15. the end of this interview makes me nervous that we won’t be big players in UFA or trades. He made it sound like we will be looking for lesser role players and leaving room for some of the young kids. He’s saying the model is to build from within, and I get that. But we need to win now. With how cheap players are being traded for because of how tight money is, this feels like such a unique opportunity to get good veteran players for cheap. I hope they don’t pass it up because of some internal budget. Hopefully I’m just reading too much into his comments. 😂
  16. I like it. Now get Larry done. Our 4th line was great. No reason to try and “fix” it. It’s the middle 6 that needs fixing. Staal was a good first step, but lots more work to be done.
  17. Bummer. Looks like there will probably be no Bills football this Sunday. I’m wondering if they’ll move the game to the end of the season and only play it if it’s necessary (like if the game has playoff implications). It would kind of piss me off if the Bills are the only team playing a week 18 game though and all the other playoff teams get (basically) a bye week.
