I have a list of some players I guess the Sabres have expressed some interest in signing. Here some of their names:
1.) Roman Hamrlik- like
2.) Aaron Miller- dislike
3.) Janne Niinimaa- why in God's name him
4.) Ryan Smyth- really really like
5.) Brendan Shanahan- really really like
6.) Ruslan Fedotenko- okay, why?
7.) Mike Peca- interesting (good for pk)
Here is Buffalo's top four players under contract and teams that are expressing interest, in order of greatest interest levels:
Daniel Briere- Montreal, Buffalo, and Philadelphia
Chris Drury- Buffalo, Los Angeles, San Jose, and Anaheim
Thomas Vanek- Buffalo, Philadelphia, Colorado, and Detroit
D. Zubrus- Montreal, Dallas, Buffalo, and Washington

Here is a few other names for you, carlo coleacavo(sp?, also I have heard rumors of Uwe Krupp and Mike Wilson coming out of retirement to solidify the backline.
man uwe krupp and mike wilson, this teams going to be unstoppable next year
It's mike again...
i was listening to WGR last night, and it sounded almost like Briere wanted to stay. If this is true, do you think he'd take a discount to do so? If Briere is the guy I think he is, he might actually stay, because his family is settled here and they love the area. That's one thing that we forget so often is that these guys are also human beings with families. After hearing that interview with Danny, who said he'd love to play with Chris again, I really think that there is a chance of actually keeping both of them, especally with the cap going up again this year.
Ok, i just got a blog.....
Well Mike there is a possibility Briere could come back. It depends on the cap and how much Drury and Briere's asking price is plus is Vanek a guy you still want or do you want to try and get some other grittier guys for the playoffs? I personally would take Ryan Smyth over Briere just because of his value on the powerplay, leadership and grit. Sure Briere has two of those qualities, but grit was a huge factor and that was something Briere certainly lacked in.
From my understanding, Ryan Smyth wants to go back out west. If he stays in the east, that would be a complete suprise to me, let alone signing him to the Sabres.
