If he's still a top 6 forward it's on a bad team only. Sabres will still be front and center in the running for 30th place.

We are looking good though!

I guess Ott is going out. I think these moves make the sabres a better team. Good.

If you put the rosters side by side, there is no reason to suggest the Flames should be any better than the Sabres.
Minus Giordano, it's Flames worse by a large margin

Not a Flame best news!

They re-signed Michalek, who I am a fan of. I didn't expect them to do that.

Still, they'll be right there.

Lol no kidding. I thought we were the ultimate tanking team of forever that would make no effort to improve our team in any conceivable way.
