Me too. I think that was a dumb move… Halak is the better goalie. But ill take it, get him out west. haha

Matthew Lombardi

Sure would look nice in a Sabres uni huh?

The player I would like least at #9 would be my sister’s cat, Captain Creamsicle. She does have a great work ethic and agility, but I’m really concerned that at 9 lbs., she’s too small to play safety in the NFL. She also bites way too often on play action and is easily distracted by someone waving string in the crowd. Lastly, her wonderlic score was pretty awful, answering "meow meow meow" for most of the questions- Dr. Brackish Okun

He is one of the players I wouldnt mind coming to Buffalo. Plus with a last name like that… hes got to be a winner.
