    Teppo close to returning?

    Darcy is on WGR right now and it sounds as if he is close to returning and that he will have to earn his PT fighting with Weber, Sekera, Butler, etc.

    For the right deal (no more than 1.5) and right length ( 1 year, maybe 2 if it is cheap) this would be a nice deal. A vet to help the youngsters.

    A one year, one million deal is nice for him. I'll take that.

        1 mil would be nothing for a very capable 6th man who is a good leader and teacher to the young guys.

          Waste of money and waste of playing time for a younger guy. No thanks!

            If he plays the role of #6 or #7 it is worth it.

            Playing Weber in that role is not worthwhile and the presence of a vet and what he can teach the young guys makes it worthwhile.

              i would rather see Pratt in same role, at least he can stick up for his teamates and not be a liability in the playoffs when teams actually check and i dont think i could watch another playoff run with Teppo being throw around in front of the Net, 5 yrs ago all for it now, NO THANK U

                Oh God! It appears that some of us were right...the Sabres are done with FA. All we got out of it was a backup goaltender and then traded for a very good veteran defenseman. Teppo will be our 2nd defensive player signing and we won't sign anyone else for the defense. We also won't sign anyone else to help make this team tougher....

                Oh well, at least Ryan Miller is extended long term!

                  He brings nothing to this team. He's not a physical player (like Weber), he has lost a step or so and Rivet can play the role of veteran. There is zero upside to him being signed. Can we please just get over Teppo already?!?! I believe he is going to be 40 yrs old and I just don't see the plus side of him being signed.

                    Chelios plays for less than that. If he'd take =/< Chelios money, I'd be happy. He's a great, calm, smooth skating defenseman. He makes his teammates on the ice play better. That's plenty valuable.

                          b. pratt was a nice in season pickup but even at their ages teppo is way better than pratt imo

                          4. teppo doesnt have a heart problem any more. he coulda had surgery a long time ago but it wasnt necessary until recently. now that its fixed its a non issue going forward
