Hell of a thing to ask, while publicly embarassing them.

What would KA do under similar circumstances?

- Lunaion


Trade the pick for a 5th, 6th and 7th in 2029, plus a conditional 4th round pick in 2033

How much of that was the weather and how much of that was the Bengals just kicking the Bills ass all over the field?

Think they just kicked our A$$es, but I do think the Bills were just Mentally Beat to Sh!t by then to!

I would ask Calgary about Markstrom if they would be inclined to also move Blake Coleman and/or Rasmus Andersson. Coleman would be a perfect 3rd line center and is an excellent two way player. Leading the Flames in scoring. Sabres obviously need more grit. Have made my feelings known about Andersson. Love his game and is defensively responsible, perfect pairing for Dahlin or Power. Markstrom is a great goalie.. when healthy- that’s the problem

The entertainment value of this game is going to be zero.

The wind will make it impossible to have any kind of passing.

So it will be an entire game of running the ball on slippery ground.

More luck than skill.

The high winds will be gone by game time. The high wind warning expires sometime early tomorrow morning. The majority of the bad weather will occur before the game.

EDIT: I should say the majority of the weather that would affect the passing game will occur before kickoff.

You would have to make a offer hard to refuse to get Andersson.

Nice Offer, but doubt that does it.

I agree completely, but he would be worth it, in my opinion. It’s clear that both Dahlin and Power need a true partner to help them.. Andersson can fit with either one. Calgary is not necessarily is a sell mode, but they have Lindholm to move and have a few contracts that are weighing on their cap.. Markstrom being one of them. This is where I would use Mittlestadt as a piece, along with a few prospects, even our first round pick this year. Calgary has their goalie of the future in Dustin Wolf. Ask the Flames to absorb some salary and see what happens

And we would take Markstrom of their hands as well. Helps them cap wise, we shed about 7 million in salary, take back a bit more but improve defensively immediately

Oh I like Andersson, said months ago if Calgary decides to do a major revamp, he would be the one I would go after.

Andersson has a nice contract for a couple more years, that raises the price IMO

Wouldn't the combo of Mittelstadt and Samuelsson cost Calgary at least $11M combined against the cap starting next season?

Also, Coleman is not a Center.

He's a winger.

I have a guess where you got he was a Center from.

If I'm right, that site is wrong.

Calgary didn’t want to retain on Zadorov to facilitate a better return.

I’d imagine any trade they make will be for futures with minimal salary going back.

Which works better for the Sabres as they are one of the few times that can take on salary.

Can they go on a run here and set themselves up to by buyers at the deadline ? That is the question.

Barring Tage’s health, I think they can.

If Tage’s injury puts him out for at extended time, we are pretty much franked

The games that the NFL puts on a streaming only platform, like tonight fish/chiefs game, are they broadcast in the local markets?
