Sabres sign big defenseman

[buffhockey]

Joe Finley.

Don't know much about him, but he is a big boy - 6’8”, 260 lbs.

Buffalo Sabres sign Finley to multi-year contract


When's the next Bruins-Sabres game?

 

[BOSSMANPC]

Put him with Myers and have the twin towers.

lol, that is a big muddafucka.

This could be a fun next game.

He's a +16 too so he can't be too bad. Seems like a stay at home d man. I think the Sabres are trying to "beef up" for the stretch. Should be fun like Jeff said.

Feb 8th is the next game between Buf & Bos - in Buffalo.

Looks like the Caps tried him as a winger, so hopefully he can skate pretty decent.

That would be pretty sweet to see two 6'8" D-men on the ice at the same time.

Especially if Nathan Gerbe scored a goal and they stood on either side of him.

Methinks Pegula isn't too happy with his team being called "soft."

This move should give the Sabres at least a chubby now.

Lucic/Gaustad was fun to watch. :boxing:



Looking forward to more bouts.

Joe Finley, meet Milan Lucic.

Signed on Monday, called up to Buffalo today.

Leopold out with an injury. TJ Brennan was supposed to be the next call-up but is also hurt.

 

[ritari330]

He was a Caps prospect a while ago. He's big and that's about it.

He threw a refrigerator out of a dorm room window at Wisconsin, so he is strong too, but stayed in South Carolina for most of his time with Washington.

Who hasn't done that before?
