About the most obvious claim I've ever seen the Sabres make.

What's a faceoff win?

 

[Jame]

awesome

 

[SabresFan26]

awesome

Agreed, always been a big fan. Would have liked him a few years ago though.

 

[DixonWard15]

the league has already fined Pat Lafontaine for "player selection and team conduct"

 

[OcAirlines]

Nice, exactly the kind of dime a dozen player I want on this team for now

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

Good move.

 

[machpo]

We are the Ellis Island of the NHL.

 

[gallagt01]

Another guy heralded as a great teammate. I like it.

 

[SabresFan26]

I did not know this but Zenon is from Niagara on the Lake so not to far away

 

[pyroxen]

I want them to ice Ott, Scott, Kaleta, konopka and Weber. Drive the tank hard and with... Class .. No wait .. Style... No not really...

Pretty much. Even more obvious with the injury to Stafford.

57 points in 70 games in the A during the 08/09 season. Was not expecting that. In fact, he has put up some quality numbers in the AHL.

 

[Sabres Fan UK]

Nice, essentially a less offensively skilled Steve Ott. Good pick-up.

least shocking Ted Nolan waiver claim ever.

Zenon Konopka? Oh, this is just to screw with Rick Jeanerette.

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

Good move. Now can we waive D'agostini now? Konopka will have a use regardless if he scores or not. Dags blows and should be waived now.

We only have 12 NHL forwards with Konopka claimed....and Dags is fine as a 4th liner.

Layne is still looking to improve this team now. We are looking to keep competing but lose. Dags is fine for now, or even eventually go to Rochester.

Was kinda surprised when I headed over to the Wild board and most of the people there were fine with losing Konopka saying that he was pretty useless for them... Didn't expect that, always saw him as a guy who was good for more than just fighting.

Not to niptpick but Patty L made the claim
