Deadline Day [Open Thread]
It's deadline day and we need a place to chat while the trades are taking place. We will still have posts about any Buffalo Sabres trades and will probably do a summary on Thursday. The games on Tuesday were not favorable to the Sabres with Philadelphia, Carolina, Florida and Pittsburgh all winning. The Sabres are now in 10th place and have plenty of work to do.
Questions to Answer
- Are the Sabres buyers or sellers?
- Will Tim Connolly be dealt and if so to who?
- Will the Sabres be able to unload Max Afinogenov or are they stuck with him till the end of the season?
- Will the Sabres be able to make the team stronger for their run to the playoffs?
- Will Martin Biron or any other goalie be headed to Buffalo?
Those are some of the key questions that need to be answered for the Sabres has they head into the stretch run. In another nine hours this team could look a whole lot different.

Happy Deadline Day everyone. It really feels like Christmas. For those who can follow along at work, TSN’s Tradecentre does work in the states.

Man its great day today- in at work at 7:45, got all my browsers loaded up. Also, I had a bit of trouble with the tsn feed but you can find it here at a mirror site: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/habsvision
I think the Sabs stand pat sadly. No takers for Max, Timmy Glass doesn’t get moved. Maybe we trade picks or something. Damn Darcy- Make It Interesting! :-p

TSN just said that negotiations for Tim will resume at 9am and the “jury is very much out” if a deal will actually get done. Apparently he is asking for 3 years. Yeesh that’s a long time with this guy if it happens.

TSN is reporting that Connolly wants a three year deal to stay with the Sabres. Two years too long
by Zachary Zielonka on Mar 4, 2009 8:38 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Maybe they’ll compromise and go with two. I would be okay with a two year deal.

I’m hoping for a fire sale today. I think this team needs to take a step back before they can take two forward. It stinks to think they will miss the playoffs for a second straight year. But, this isn’t a Cup contender, no matter what they could add, if they even choose to do so.
I’m really in favor of letting Tim, Kotalik, Max, Spacek, and Tallinder go.
by krytime on Mar 4, 2009 9:51 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Spacek can stay and I would even keep Tallinder, the rest can go.
by Zachary Zielonka on Mar 4, 2009 9:54 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Tallinder needs to go. Spacek should go, but only because he’s a FA after the season, and with the depth on D in the organization, there is no way they’ll be able to give him the money he wants.

You are right, its definitely not a sign and trade. I thought the Sabs learned their lesson paying him all that money over the last few years and now they are going to pay him more money for more years???? I agreed with other people who stated he should sign for a hometown discount or not at all. At least this will take some of the heat from people criticizing Pommers contract.

Aren’t they close to their self imposed cap? I think they would probably stick with Enroth as the back up and Patrick as the starter till Miller returns.

I feel like there was a lot of sound and fury signifying nothing. The way I can see today really working to the Sabs favor is if 1) Miller is out long term and Telly actually picks up the slack and 2) that Moore makes Pommer and our other underachieving forwards find their scoring touch again.
