If you were his agent, wouldn't you tell him to go UFA? I know it sucks.

Yes, but that's what I kinda mean. I still am not suppose to talk certain things because of my bet. I will explain what I meant better on Sunday.

Do your wives know about each other? Is it like a Big Love situation or do you keep them a secret from each other?

Would Samuelsson even have made it through with already playing with a broken hand and bad leg.

Nah. Kruger was a snake oil salesman.

Adams is only a used car salesman, a slightly less version of undesirable.

Again, I hope I am wrong, but at this point, I don't see anyway Johnson signs with Buffalo.

I have been saying it for the whole year if he did not sign last summer he was not going to sign with us. He would be too close to FA and he would have his pick of wherever he wanted to play.

it sucks for sure, but at least we get a 2nd round pick for hm.

So value is determined based on how a team plays and values a player? We should only want players that were valued highly by another team? By that logic, teams should have been beating down the door for Cody Eakin.

Of course he has flaws. Again, he was scratched because he went into a bad slump at the end. We had a pretty damn good roster going towards the end of the season and our forwards stayed pretty healthy. The guy is a proven goal scorer in the league and is still pretty young. That means *something*. This isn't us trying to pass Risto off on someone else. The guy has accomplished real things in this league (scoring lots of goals).

Nah, olofsson is not going to bring back a good return.

The Sabres were starting rookies and benching him at the most important time of the year.

Olofsson absolutely played himself off this team .

His value took a huge hit, teams notice healthy scratches and also teams notice a high scoring offense like ours , could be a bit deceptive. (Ie donnie the center whisperer and a guy like mitts).

You didnt answer, but a 2nd rounder seems fair and we may need to eat salary to move olofsson.

Maybe take a break again with your cody eatkids take 😀

* 7 goals in 115 games as a Sabres player for eakin.

700 games nhl played and similar goal production to olofsson in 200. You have some kind of point?

Danny Briere is a clown car salesman.

I'd package him (50% retained) along with Joker and a 2nd for a good RhD partner for Power.
Think Cernak...would be pretty great.

What kind of value is olofsson.

Sure he scored 28 goals.
Healthy scratch on a non playoff team

Smells like a 2nd and 5th like greenway.....
