  1. The next AB situation
  2. Nah. There's always a restructure or cut to be made. Lots of teams are operating in a much more precarious way. The Bills will be fine.
  3. They don't look like they are playing very good hockey lately. Can't imagine them going far even if they do make the playoffs.
  4. Well, McDavid has been spectacular for sure! What are the chances Geekie or Lambert fall to Florida's pick?
  5. And what did u surmise?
  6. I admit being duped by it during the 2 generational player draft of of 2015.
  7. Oh boy, generational being tossed around again.
  8. Talent wise I doubt it So, the weeks leading up to the trade deadline he was rumored to want out, got it.
  9. He wants to start and thinks he's being blocked. Not the first guy to want out of a situation like that. Is he really being that vocal about it? I saw the trade deadline talking heads doing a story on it but I thought that was just his agent jockeying behind the scenes?
  10. Spencer Knight has been playing games at the NHL level since 2020-21. Devon Levi outplayed him in the World Juniors and has been steadily improving since. I'm gonna say Levi signs and surprises some people by playing full time in the NHL next season. I think he'll be paired with a trade acquisition like Gorgiev or FA like Keumper. The need for atleast one veteran starter is urgent no matter what they think of anyone in the system. UPL and Portillo will share the net in Rochester.
  11. You wouldn't get an argument from me. The Sabres have missed that type of player since Deslauriers and Foligno left in my opinion. Minnesota understood that and paid up for Deslauriers.
  12. Bills signed Crowder? I'm not exactly sure why but, when he's healthy he's damn near unstoppable in the slot. At the very least he can be someone the young WRs can continue to learn different tecniques from. He gets open, how?
  13. He's a missile tonight and a helluva teammate imo. He'd be a welcome addition in the room and on the ice!
  14. Filip Forsberg. I thought that was obvious. You sign Trochek and Forsberg and let it take care of itself. If the players you mentioned are better, then they'll play. Those two immediately raise the lineup into a playoff caliber unit imo Money talks most likely so we'll see if the Sabres are ready to make those kind of moves yet. As a disclaimer.....Very few assets were harmed in the making of these moves.
  15. He has definitely realized he's bigger than 2/3rds of the league and he's starting to assert it. The next time Rat Marchand wants to take him on he'll be ready.
  16. Uncertain year, operating profits likely way down. Probably a business decision to keep that money in the bank so to speak. More room to go up in the offseason no?
  17. The Sabres could be a playoff caliber team with 4, possibly 5 moves in the offseason imo Sign Trochek Sign Forsberg Sign Gudbranson Sign Keumper Trade for Gorgiev...he wants out apparently The rest deals with re signing their own FAs and bringing in the college guys etc
  18. Well yeah, that's very reasonable of you and I agree. I'll just be eating my popcorn 🍿 while I peruse the rest of the comments if that does happen though 😅
  19. The only problem I see with this is if they fall flat in the last 19 and start to regress a bit. I don't see that going over so well.
  20. He absolutely does whether we like it or not, we don't lol. He's the best FO guy on the team, guys should be lining up in practice taking draw after draw against him. After practice, Krebs, Mitts, Asplund, Tage should all be asking for 25 extra draws. It's the one thing he's got, use it up.
  21. It was suggested by @pi2000that he could come in and acclimate for a few weeks if needed before drawing in. I think that makes sense IF he needs it like I suspect he does.
  22. I'm fine with that Leave em where they are. A long playoff run on the farm would go a long way for em. If they're ready, we'll see them next season in Blue and Gold.
  23. That's fine
