Official July 1 Free Agency thread - Sabres news

[Ebenezer]

THis team is way better right now. We are deep with the exception of C, and have the prospects and players to make a big trade if we choose. Add in how much better our D is... I'm really happy.

So am I. I nearly wet myself when the Leino signing was announced. My sarcasm didn't drip through that post?

i'm worried about our centers, but we have an owner willing to spend now and we definitely have the assets to acquire one in a trade still.

other than that, our defense looks sick and we have a lot of good wingers....and of course we still have miller and now a dependable backup

If you went to sleep when Philly beat Buffalo and non-bigoted up at 5PM today and didn't know any of the soap opera behind how these players moved, wouldn't you agree that the Sabres are a much better team today??

Getzlaf, Weiss, Bolland, Stastny, Backstrom, Brassard, Staal (pitt)..............there are possibilities

Two upgrades to the D and a C who will atleast be better than Connolly. Peeps there was 1 true #1 center on the market whom we would never even have considered before.

Im disappointed we didnt get Richards then took a deep breath. They are a better team now and it aint all going to be fixed in one off season.

Anyone else think that the plan is to move Tyler Ennis back to center? He was a center before Buffalo, wasn't he?

[jamze132]

It shouldn't surprise anyone that we aren't getting Richards. There are a bunch of other teams out there. Regardless of what is reported, he's going to the team that offers him the most money, just like 99% of other athletes.

Our team was already a playoff caliber team before FA started and we are MUCH better today. Who says we aren't a cup contender with Miller in net? This team is going to be amped when the season starts because of what our new owner has said and done so far. Watch this team compete for the cup. Watch for this team to be very active at the trade deadline next season.

I am finally super excited about Buffalo professional sports for a change!
