BringBackFergy Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 Botts is taking the Brandon Beane approach. Sign hard working players with the hope one of them pans out. (See Kelvin Benjamin) 1
K-9 Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 Looks like we are loading up the Amerks’ forward group. I suspect that means the Sabres are counting on promoting and/or packaging a couple wingers in a trade.
YoloinOhio Posted July 1, 2019 Posted July 1, 2019 Gus Nyquist to Jackets Interested to see length of contract and $$

Even if it's not the bigger deal we're hoping for, it will at least be something along the lines of how they moved out Bailey and Baptiste over the past year or so. 1

I'm also concerned about an Eichel-Reinhart-Vessey love triangle. The locker room could get very messy if those three can't figure out polyamory. 1 2

He's a meddler and if he really does not want to pay the cash involved there, particularly the signing bonuses, he won't pay. Any other team and this is a no brainer. But that's the thing about that saying, it doesn't apply to those who actually do have no brain.

I agree Shrader -- Dundon could let him walk. We are 11 game partial seasons holders...but we have them to see opponents -- 2 Sabres; 2 Capitals; and then a mixture of Flyers, Rangers, Oilers, Bruins, etc. If Dundon lets Aho walk, I feel sorry for the new Canes fans that were birthed with this past playoff run. 1

Finally players getting smart and not looking for 8 year deals coming off their ELC, but 5 to get that second bite at the Apple. This is what Marner wants too,,,but $north of $11m for 5, just like Matthews recurved
