Whatever the case, they achieve absolutely nothing keeping Reinhart up. I don't think they need his bonus to stay above the salary floor either.

If they want to keep kids like Grigorenko, Larsson and Armia in the AHL they have warm bodies in Luke Adam, Zac Dalpe and Matt Ellis to recall to fill that depth role.

I get why the Sabres bought out Leino and Ehrhoff but I'm absolutely puzzled how Nathan Gerbe was ever deemed worthy of a buyout.

Not that Snow was smart for moving him for Vanek, but Moulson certainly isn't blowing anyone's doors off since leaving the Islanders. Playing with JT will help anyone. Moulson looks to have really cashed in on his prior work alongside JT.

Keep it up, Sabres! I believe in you. You must snatch that top pick, nobody wants to see another lottery pick wasted on the Oilers.

Frustrated today, but the future is looking a little brighter with Evander Kane in the fold.

If there was a Presidents Trophy for tanking, Buffalo would win it in a landslide. They're doing it the right way.

It's so hard to watch though. Started Netflix binging after the 2nd period tonight.

I feel bad for Johnson. He played well early for the Isles, and then fell off as he didn't play much. He got caught in a downward spiral of no confidence from the coach, no playing time, lower self-confidence.... He was showing he'd righted the ship shortly before he was shipped out. As much as I believe the Sabres are in fact tanking, that was a shitty thing TSN did to Johnson, who I still like. I hope he plays great for them and gives everyone a nice big FU.

Ugh. I'm glad tanking won't be so blatantly rewarded in the future. This is ridiculous.

And what's more, as someone on Twitter pointed out. The Sabres have iced what could be the worst team in NHL history, and they STILL might not end up in last place.

They're the worst team in recent history, not the worst team in NHL history. These guys would kick the expansion Senators and Capitals ass.

I'm surprised any one in a Buffalo bar was even paying attention to the game. LOL

Something to pass the time while the city waits for LeSean McCoy to sign ...

Apparently Johnson may have kept his pride in his lower body: http://sabres.buffalonews.com/2015/03/0 ... done-year/

Good news!

McDavid or Eichel won't ever have to wear the "Turdburger" third jerseys.

Later Ted. Onward and, hopefully, upward.

I was honestly surprised it took this long. He left the Isles (still not clear if he was fired or quit) because he wanted to win and Snow said he had a slow rebuild in the works. I thought Ted would flip with all the obvious tanking efforts from upstairs.

I like him and hope he lands on his feet somewhere closer than Latvia.

Except that Tim Murray said that they didn't expect to be a 30th place team. :lol:

I don't think Tim Murray realized that there aren't more than 30 teams in the league.

Well, Tim, literally EVERYONE ELSE thought you were at best 29th. Frankly, I'm surprised they got as close to 29th as they did.

I think Tim is just saying that publicly to not reveal the fact that there were tensions between management and coaching staff.
