Dudes,

@ Jets MNF week 1.
vs. Jags week 5 in London

Anymore leaks? Heard Allen hinting at possible home game on Thanksgiving? In serious conversations with Family about going to London. Cool stadium and spend a couple more days checking out some of the sites. Just a lot of money for flight and hotel. Figuring 4 tix to the game will be about a grand too.

That's a fun game to go too.

Expect tickets to be $500 each IMO.

Strange opening monday night game vs the washed up jets qb. Why would the nfl have this guy kick off the season? Something isnt adding up?

The NFL could put Cardinals Browns opening night and because it’s opening night it’s get a huge draw.

They did some PK together, but maybe when all the injuries hit they could have played together. Don't remember
- Buff36


Even if they did for a few minutes, is it smart to plan your season around it?

I can see it now

Watson tweaks an ankle in the preseason and it's jeff driskel vs joshua dobbs as qbs and cris collinsworth is spending 3 hours trying to sell the turd sandwich to the fans

Tickets to London acquired. I shall wear a fresh jaguar skin about my person to set fear into the hearts of our rivals as I paddle up the Thames.

I wanted to move Joker last summer. Can't wait forever on all these decisions.

While I agree with you about the lions. The lions can always pull …. The lions and stink up the joint.

Definitely a riskier opening game for the NFL

Just 1, upgrade Joker.

You know my opinion on this. Basic asset management says make a decision on guys before the end of their bridges. Dropping him out of your top 4 and keeping him around is a half measure. No more half measures.

I know your viewpoint and have been calling for stuff for awhile know myself and how decisions need to be made quicker. But heard and told to slow it down. Sabres could basically do what they want, they have the Assets and Cap space to do it. But will they.

Have to hope he's learned. Getting ahead on a few extensions is a good sign, but handing out lucrative extensions is the good guy side of it. Need to see some bad guy.

You have stillman, Lybuskin, and samuelsson who play the same way as gudas

How many more do you want?

- Sabretooth9


Their style of play may be similar...from the the eye test only their quality effectiveness is substandard to Gudas' par.
Stillman is a 7th D.
Lyubuschkin is fine for 3rd pair in the absence of a better player like Gudas.
Having Lyu us hkin and Gudas on the 3rd Pair enables Adams to go get a more tame defensive beast for 2nd pair.

Now, I'm not a big fan of paying more than $2m-ish for 3rd pairing guys, so take it for what it is worth.

So nets out to $5.5m at a 2nd and 5th for 2nd pair Dman.
Yup, absolutely.

Doubt he moves though, his wife/GF/Fiance has a career there IIRC

Teams with speed and skill beat out the “tougher” more physical teams.

Gudas at 33 would be Craig rivet all over again. No thanks

Gudas is also a piece of poop. I can’t imagine he’s a nice guy in our lockerroom.
