Why get Keumper when we should be able to get Gibson.. younger, better, american, doesn't want to be a leaf lol IMO spend more and get him over Darcy, always liked him nows the time to get him. AND when has a Darcy ever done Buffalo any good?
- DirtyDan


Gibson will cost a TON though
He might as well be their “Eichel”
Signed for 6more years after this too

Well looks like Quinn can't even make his debut with Rochester, has to quarantine with being on the taxi squad.

Does the AHL and ECHL fall soon? They have to be so dependent on the fan revenue, will it really be worth starting them up?
- Gr8daygo



Well the NWHL was doing a Hub Bubble city in Lake Placid, however they didn't do it right and two teams had to drop out completely and it sounds like teams were going out of the hotel and into the town...

In other words nothing like the NHL, AHL or ECHL

the fort wayne ECHL team jacked up the prices to account for lower attendance.. so far they are pretty much selling out.. but they were always at the top of minor league hockey attendance

NFLPA is saying they think the Cap will fall to 180mill for this season. So with the carry over for the Bill's and if that number is correct the Bill's will be between 3 to 6 mill over the cap.

With him being signed for this season + 6 more,
gotta think it’ll cost a ton

We’re talking UPL + multiple 1sts, and probably more

This makes alot of sense.
Move feliciano to center with a raise, but not top $ like Morse.

Yeah, was told to watch for him, Butler, Jefferson, Brown, possibly Addison and Hughes could be restructuring.

I’m not counting on UPL playing a role anytime soon
It’s certainly possible, but he didn’t even look good in Rochester last year

I hope we don’t rush him


And what about Hutton for those back to back games?

Well at least it shows they recognize Hutton for what he is: Inconsistent
And that we need to improve that spot

It’s a good start. I’ll take it

This line of Terry this and Terry that is very over overblown. They hired Ralph and gmka to do their jobs, from what I heard.

They are worried about their image in attracting free agents and want to handle players professionally.

Its business, okposo's and hutton's feelings do not matter, unless it prevents future business hires and free agents.

You’re exaggerating this point though
EVERY other team replaces, benches, buys out, etc etc etc guys like this all the time
Yet, somehow they all continue to sign free agents
