As per no real source Buffalo Sabres franchise player, Jack Eichel will be sidelined 6-8 weeks with a left ankle injury. Ouch!
Sabres fans with the loss of Eichel and the impending trade of Evander Kane expect the Sabre submarine to come to rest at the bottom of the NHL sea.
Here’s a list of sailors departing for ports beyond leaving holes in the line up next season that wont be easily replaced by draft nor call up.
Evander Kane
This is one player I wish the Sabres would sign. He is an all around player that’s not easily replaced.
Benoit Pouliot
Another player I wish we could keep and he would definitely be on the cheap.
Robin Lehner
Inconsistencies and a bad defense equall lots of losses. Despite that being the truth imagine Lehner in St. Louis, Boston, Dallas, Washington, Winnipeg, think about his save percentage and wins going up and turning into one of the better goalies in the league. There goes another one we had!
Linus Ullmark will fight for position next year but Lehner will hold the position providing he’s still in the 716.
I don’t see why not considering he has another year and is an RFA.
Jason Pominville
What a. Return to Buffalo! Pommel lit the lamp bring back visions of days gone by. And that’s what they are for #29 days, gone by. Can Botril get a 4th rd pick?
Johan Larsson
His time is up, it’s time to ramble on. Can we get a 3rd for him or can Bots pull a Gaustad.
This rebuild is at a turtles pace and it falls on owner Terry Pegula. Pegulas picks for leadership of the S.S. Sabres have been horrible at best. Hire hockey men who know the game and stop paying stop gap coaches. Put some consistency into the culture.
The loss of Eichel will show you what we really got in Buffalo, a team of mainly 3 & forth liners.
You need to stop
Why?
You still smoking the meth? Tell us more about how Evander Kane is a top 10 NHL player, the total package and worth a fat stack in trade.Just kidding, that was one of the most entertaining bits of stupidly I ever read.
Hey we have something in common! Your response was one of the most entertaining bits of stupidly I’ve ever heard.
Ouch...you really got me with that one. What's next, I call you a retard and you come back with " I know you are but what am I?"
Nah, Idon’t have to, you’re from tonto.
Ummm....actually I'm not.what gives you that idea?In all seriousness, your blog wasn't horrible, I'm just busting your balls over your drug induced rant about Kane a couple weeks back on Ebs thread. That was classic stuff and I know you were just kidding.
Larsson, either way I appreciate you opinion and thank you for reading my blog!It took me all but 2.5 seconds as my mind is always racing on about different angles about the team. And as long as possibilities exist questions must be asked.And as far as the Tonto thing, I’ll let you use it! Go ahead try it when the situation calls for it! You my friend will grin with satisfaction!
