All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!

I say Noronen all the way, but I am a little biased... He is my favourite Sabre.... But still.... Come on, with a name like Mika Noronen, how can you not start him??
although since everyone has been saying Mika will be sent down I was kinda lookin forward to it... Mika + rochester vs st. john's=me seeing mika play and meeting him
Originally posted by Makaveli i'm still saying 1. Biron 2. Noronen...

Let me say this again: Mika CANNOT be sent down without first clearing waivers. He will never clear waivers. So basically, he will never be in Rochester again. The only guy that can be sent down is Miller because he is on a 2-way contract still.
So for Noronen it is either Buffalo or trade...and I smell a trade coming.

lol I know that he can't, don't keep telling me, thats mainly why said Mika as #2 cuz by the pre-season performance Miller obviously should of got it (i hate to say)

I can see Miller being sent back to Rochester in a few weeks if they can't get market value for Noronen in terms of trade (like a second round pick) or use him as filler in a package deal. Noronen will not be the number one, though, that's for sure (no matter how much people like him).

Ruff already knows whos going to start, so somethings up. Obviously this close someones gonna get traded hopefully for some more scoring. I know the Avs could use Biron and trade Tanguay for him
Lindy keeps saying he won't know until game time tomorrow. Like Rhett said, with Miller being the only one who can be sent down w/o clearing waivers, he's the only possible person who we'll see of them 3 in Rochester. That's sad, because he deserves to start the season on the Sabres' roster. Instead, Mika and Biron will get to, because they'd have to clear waivers. I hope we get one of them packaged and sent off in a trade soon.
I think it would be stupid to trade Noronen or Biron. You can't rely on miller being backup or a starter yet. I think it's highly unlikely that biron especially would be traded. The experience is on his side, and he's not a bad goalie. If any goalie is going to get traded it will be mid-season or in march. I wouldn't bet anything on it though. Give these guys a chance lets see who wants to stand out and be #1. I have a feeling Biron will snap into it and play the best we've seen him play in a long time this season.
