Sabres & NHL 2016-17 - Victor Antipin Signs One Year Deal


Recommended Posts

It almost feels like it could be an AHL move, a bit of a head scratcher. Do they really go with Ulmark and Kasdorf in Rochester or do they let on start in the ECHL?

Went to the first practice at Harborcenter today. What a great facility, it was my first time there. Was disappointed that Nylander wasn't on the ice, he and Fasching were part of the second practice. :(

 

A couple notes: Justin Bailey looks bigger and stronger than everyone else on the ice.

 

The second round pick, Aspland, stood out. He's fast and scored on a couple of laser wrist shots that beat the goalie cleanly.

 

The two goalies looked good, too. They made a few really nice saves.

 

Afterward took a walk through Canalside, which was teeming with tourists. Downtown Buffalo is really on the upswing.

New at [bN] Hockey: With #Sabres meeting Vesey today, are #Blackhawks a stealth contender on Aug. 15?

The Jimmy Vesey Sweepstakes is heating up in earnest as the Sabres are expected to have their initial sit-down with the Hobey Baker Award winner today in Boston.

In John Vogl's story on Vesey, The News reported Wednesday night a charter company used by owner Terry Pegula had a plane leave Buffalo on Wednesday night and land at the suburban Boston airport frequented by the Sabres. Vesey confirmed to NHL.com after his summer league game Wednesday that he will be meeting with the Sabres today in Beantown.

"I think we have a small number of teams that I think we'll really be focusing on," Vesey said. "So, Aug. 15 we'll start talking to them and see what they say."

But while most of the Vesey talk has centered around the Sabres, Boston and Toronto, why is Vesey waiting until free agency on Aug. 15? Likely to see what other offers might be coming his way. The Chicago Blackhawks seem to be a good candidate and it would appear they're interested.

Sabres trade rumor getting some play: Sabres to trade Ennis and Franzen for Rick Nash.

Bet it or forget it?

gross. Nash seems like a good guy but he never lived up to expectations in Cbus. lots if talent but no guts or leadership. If Ennis isn't able to play that's one thing but if he can, I'd rather have him than Nash. Edited by YoloinOhio

The additional details in this story certainly cast Sabres' Evander Kane in a troubling light.

 

Dude's gotta get sober, that's the bottom line.

When you read that it appears that he's spinning out of control. Don't know how GMTM can get him back on the right path.
