"I've said it before: we're going to do what's best for the short term and the long term. In the short term, it's best to have two cheap goalies that aren't good while we wait for the other goalie that we actually like.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm trying to finish a trade for Mark Recchi's nephew. Great kid."

The Sabres should not wear pride jerseys because they do not play with any pride amirite.

My serious take: the jerseys are meant to show the lgbtq+ fans that they're welcome at the games and they're welcome to be fans.

That's it. That's all you're signing up for.


As for hockey, wake me up when Levi is playing because this season is officially boring

It made sense a few days ago. Now, it means 0 practices.

Maybe Philly?

I wonder if there is a delay cause its going form a education visa to a work visa
- hubie


It's strange to me because the purpose of any delay should be (according to what I learned at FLETC) to ensure a few things:
1. This is not fraud and an attempt to live in the US illegally
That can obviously be dismissed
2. Devon Levi is not a security risk to the United States
This can be dismissed

Unless something has changed, there is no designated holding period to switch from a student to a worker's visa. Also, obviously the Sabres attorneys and Levis agent are experts in this specific matter. This is something on the govt side. Incompetence most likely.

He's a risk to the other 24 American NHL franchises.

Shut it down.

Risking the bottom 10, if anything.

I'm liking the 3% chance of bedard.

Comfortable feeling, lottery day, feels like an annual event.

I think the Sabres should trade for:

Kolesar
Meier
Chryrun
Ef bear
Crouse
Debricat

Let's get together and talk about it 😉


Rid themselves of middle fats, fallz28 , nogoaloffson.

Are we allowed to win the lottery? Everything feels more complicated than it used to be.

Beginning in 2021, only two draws will be held for the first two selections. Starting with the 2022 lottery; the teams winning one of the two lotteries will only be allowed to move up a maximum of ten spots in the draft order and teams will only be allowed to win the lottery twice in a five year period.

I'm pretty sure its Monday vs Montreal.

No media release needed.

Apparently immigration could hold this up.

In NHL terms, Sabres have never won the lottery. They've just retained their position twice.

Likely impacted by only being able to move up 10 spots, if they somehow won.

Can already hear KA's response, it's important to get a few practices in before we consider throwing him in.
