What the **** is in the water in Buffalo?

Somehow on opposite ends of the continent, Buffalo and Edmonton draw from the same well.

 

[Fjordy]

Really terrible

Maybe we can start this off with a new thread? Or do so at the start of the season?

Ffffffffff

Tennyson-Hunwick is going to lock things down for us next year.

Tennyson-Hunwick is going to lock things down for us next year.

Thankfully Tennyson is a UFA. We can hope he won't be back.

Sabres' Brandon Montour: Exits game with injury

Montour suffered an undisclosed injury in Monday's World Championship clash with Slovakia, Brent Wallace of TSN.ca reports.
The obvious concern for Sabres fans is the long-term implications of Montour's injury, especially considering Zach Bogosian (hip) and Lawrence Pilut (shoulder) could miss the start of the 2019-20 campaign. After joining Buffalo at the trade deadline from Anaheim, the 24-year-old notched three goals and seven helpers in 20 appearances and figures to be a consistent contributor heading into 2019-20 if he is healthy.

Not the worst thing in the world, should have at least/around 2.5 months of training/practice before games start.

This will be a test of how cynical versus compassionate people are.

 

[Ehran]

Its unfortunate for Hunwick. Sounds like it probably will be career ending, and neck/head problems are something you never want to see someone carry on from their playing days.

I guess LTIR? That should put us back under the salary cap.

 

[Chainshot]

Sucks for Hunwick. I wonder if this was part of what he was recovering from to start last season?

Victor Olofsson continues to state case for NHL roster spot in Sabres win
UPL recovering: Sabres top goalie prospect Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen will not be on the ice with the Sabres when training camp practices begin Friday, Assistant General Manager Randy Sexton told The Buffalo News.
Luukkonen, 20, underwent hip surgery in April and has spent much of the summer in Buffalo working with goalie development coach Seamus Kotyk and Dennis Miller, the team's head of rehab and development.
Luukkonen is "on track" in his recovery, according to Sexton, and is expected to be ready when games begin in October. Luukkonen is expected to spend much of the season in Rochester.
