    All my homies hate the Lightning. Damn, Zemgod did you really have to sign with them? That makes me kinda sad.

    Good for him. Will be able to taste the playoffs and who knows, maybe he will be added to the “Got a cup before the Sabres made the playoffs” ex-Sabre pantheon.

    Looking like both Zemgus and Skinner will make the playoffs for the first time next season. Good for them.

  4. DistressedSportsFan

    Really great value for Tampa. Wish him all the best

    Good for him. He was a great dude in the community and for some years in the drought was the only guy on the ice showing any heart. Hoping the best for him

    Actually gonna cry. Love me some Zemgod and gonna miss him and his hustle

    Where are all the doomers who claimed he wasn’t worth anything and we needed to get rid of him? This just in, one of the best organizations in the league gave this supposedly worthless player a 3 year contract. You were all wrong.

    Fuck… Was hoping we wouldn’t lose the Latvian Locomotive

  9. Just a horrible week to be a Sabres fan. Tears are coming

    Always thought it’d be the Pens but good for him. No Sabre deserves to win more.

    Good for him and the Sabres. Win win. We needed new fabric and he needed a change.

    Hell yeah good for Z. Glad he’s gone, he can’t keep missing the playoffs. It was time

  13. Wow, that says a lot for Tampa to give him three. We only gave him 1 last year. Speaks to how well regarded he is in the league. Probably will be another guy who would have stayed if we were contenders, but I heard that KA said he rejected our offer to play for a contender.

    Damn, sorry to see him go. Been a Sabres staple for so long. Best wishes Z!

    I was actually hoping Zemgus would leave last year along with Okposo. I won’t miss either of them. They were the holdovers from the worst Sabre teams ever.
