Ok lets be honest. Losing both Briere and Drury could be a huge setback to this team, but ive had enough of this Negative Nancy talk. Look at it from a different angle. If we do end up losing both of them it will free up a lot of money. The Sabres may have full intentions of signing equally talented players with that money. Just be patient and lets see how everything turns out.

Re: Be Patient!
Selanne has never played in the East. Why would he know, at his age? Iginla is not a UFA. Smyth and Gomez aren't realistic. If the Sabres aren't up to par on matching the co-captains' demands, why would they be for a big-money free agent from outside the organization?
Expecting them to do anything huge is probably far-fetched. Just hope and pray Druuuuuuury re-signs.

Re: Be Patient!
I think fans of this team have every right to be jumpy in their attitudes. This team has shown a track record of trying to be cautious when it comes to their guys and then they end up losing them. I actually take more offense to you saying calm down than I do with everyone else. Fans of this team have every right to be PO'd with these rumors.

Re: Be Patient!
I understand everything you guys are saying and i dont necessarily disagree with it. Im just saying wait and see how things play out before you start throwing a tantrum. I dont think going to the conference finals for the past two years and losing is good. I think consistantly trying to make the next step is the best way to go and if thats trying something different then im all for it. I want the cup as much as you guys do and i as a fan wouldnt be opposed to trying a new approach. Trust me i love Drury and Briere but i would love the cup more!

Re: Be Patient!
The past two years have been our Cup window. We had two franchise players great in their own ways and a deep team full of good young talent well-suited for the new NHL, and a top-shelf goalie, all affordable. Take away any one of those factors, and we're not a Cup team. We'll still be playoff contenders as long as Miller is the goalie, but this was our best shot and we blew it."It is better to be divided by truth than to be united by error." -- Martin Luther

That definitely helps to close our window.
