      I know PK is fun to watch.  I just don't think he's worth giving up too many assets for, especially youth (and) or picks.

      I understand what you’re say @DonaldBrashear, but Mrs. Alf might not be driving next birthday.  So I don’t really care about any costs.  I just want her to “go fast and get really sh***y gas mileage”.

  10. Really like Ristolinen from Buffalo.  I would trade our 2019 first (if it’s not first overall) for this guy.  He’s big, mean, physical, and skilled.  He’s Buffalo’s best D man by A LOT!!! I want him.

      So really, what's reasonable from a Sabres Fan perspective?

      I'm the wrong person to give that answer.  I don't have a high opinion on Risto, but he still has high trade value to a defense needy team. 

       

      The Sabres aren't in a huge hurry to get rid of him since he does eat up monster minutes, but if the TDL rumours were true, they were still listening to offers, but evidently didn't get a good enough offer to part with him.

       

      Will that change during the off-season when teams are looking to improve their roster for next season?  Your guess is as good as mine.

      I thought Laine was the next OV, and better than Matthews.  Now, he’s pretty much fallen way down the list of top players.  He’s actually costing himself millions.  He was looking at a huge contract.  Now he’s likely only getting show me bridge deal.

      Laine is not even as good as Boeser.  Zadorov is a beast.  Pair him with Tryamkin and nobody would ever want to enter our blueline...

  16. Love watching Big Milan Lucic play.  Makes this old man think he can still outskate at least one NHL player.  :lol:

  17. Casey Middlestadt and Rasmussen Dahlin should be in the AHL.  Eichel is great, but the Sabres are foolish playing Middlestadt and Dahlin in the bigs.

      Dahlin is a stud. He's going to be one of the best defensemen in the NHL for the next 10 years, I'd guess. His rookie numbers are among the best in the past 20 years or so for defensemen and he's just been drafted too.

    3. Alflives

      Alflives

      Say what you want, but both these kids are going backwards with their development.  Too much too soon.  Sabres looked great early, and now they look like scrubs.  Stupid management.  Ruining two good young players.  

    4. SabreFan1

      SabreFan1

      I agree on Mittelstadt.  He was in high school at this point last year, but you are as wrong about Dahlin as you always are.  Even the experts are saying that he's having a very good rookie year, even more so when you take into account his age.

       

      You can put Dahlin down all you want, it won't magically somehow make Hughes the better defenceman so you can crow to the world about how he's the bestest most wonderful d-man in the universe who will have superbabies with EP40.

       

      As for the Sabres.  All I have to say is that I told you all along that they weren't as good yet as you thought they were.  They're still carrying some dead weight that they need to shed while the young players still need to get more experience.

       

      It has nothing to do with current management.  It's the previous GM that sucked.

       

      The 3 1st round picks in this draft should help as well.

  18. watching the Oilers play.  :lol::lol::lol:  my God they are a selfish and horrible bunch of players.  Come on and play hard for your teammates!  McDavid and Draisaitl are the absolute worst!

      @King Heffy Kim Jung (whaterver his name is.  The little fat guy) plays better defensively than McDavid and Draisaitl.  

  19. I love Eichel.  I think the Sabres have a better player than McDavid.  Eichel plays hard without the puck.  The guy is a real leader.  I wouldn’t trade Petey for any NHL player, but Eichel would be close.  Did I say I really like how Eichel plays?  Alf predicts Eichel leads the Sabres to a Cup final in three years.  

  20. Avs look horrible.  What’s wrong with that team?  Are they the Colorado Oilers?

      I'm listening to music, and the cat is on my lap.  The heat is on, and there's snow on the ground.  I ate a lot of protein for dinner and had a lot of energy afterwards, so I found a workout video on Amazon Prime, so I worked out to burn some energy.  I would go outside or the gym, but it's not that safe due to the weather.  I was even looking outside at the street wondering about ice skating, but that's slim to none.

      With the rule changes for the new teams coming into the league,Vegas Knights and soon Seatle ? it seems pretty bleak.

      I mean if the Canucks had come into the league and gone to the Stanley Cup Finals in its first year that would have been mind blowing but we have suffered for years.

      No 10A draft picks,just when we need help we constantly get screwed by the LOTTO DRAFT,so yeah pretty bleak!

  24. Mrs. Alf has MS.  Do you guys know what that is?  She’s toast.  I’ve increased my scotch consimpyion knowing that I’m going to be alone (except for my dog) soon.  Life sucks, and then you die.  I really could could care a $&!# about hickey.  Sone of you hockey is your life, get it means nothing.  What only matters is heLth.  Life sucks, and then you die.  I need to drink more.  Tomortoes I wish I could jump off a bridge.  Alas, I can’t even do that.  It sucks being old and decrepit.  Mrs. Alf has matynev1 month left to live, at least that’s what the doctors say.  What if, in this drunken stupor, I drill holes in my heD?  Will that end my pian?  I drank a full bottle.  I still feel like crap.  Don’t get old you going people. It sucks cannonsgetting old, and losing your best Brenda. I hate doctors.  They only give bad news.  Did you know that Mrs. Alf, back in the day was an All ?American in track?  Yup.  I was too.  (I know it’s craxu, but it’s true.  We were both All ?Americans.). Now she’s toast.  Fu#@ this life sucks!  I’m on to bottle # two.  Mrs. Alf is way too strong.  These doctors, who I think are (I was going to say lbtards) are stupid.  You should see Mrs . Alf ... she’s really amazing!  No way she’s sink, like those losers say.  Should I hide the actionx for the Gus?  

    One more bottle, and maybe? I’d feel better?  I do have my dog.  When he’s gone, then that’s it.  No more suffering and pain.  Just end it.  

    Im not a happy Alf tonight.  

    Seriously, what am I going to do?

      My buddy in Australia has MS. Has a great, loving and supporting family. Good friends, a caring job. He even gets time to compete in sailboat races. He's had it for 20+ years. Doesn't let it beat him. Not all heroes wear capes.

      I'm so sorry to hear this Alf. 

       

      All you can do is wait and hope for the best, for many with MS it can be managed for a very long time and the meds are getting better and better. You have reason for optimism. 

    4. Gurn

      Gurn

      Take no single doctor's word, consult someone else. Most likely the Dr. is right, but they do make mistakes.

      There are support groups for folks with MS, they can help with ideas and techniques for mitigating and fighting the disease.
