What exactly has RK shown you that you want him to have authority over Lindy to be kicked upstairs?

Their firing wasn’t the problem. The problem was hiring an utter and complete incompetent in Botteril. He will go down as one of the worst GMs in NHL history. How Seattle hired him is shocking.

Maybe we can bring back Brian Gionta or Josh Georges if you want leadership. That didn’t go so well.

Patience. Most defensemen take years to develop. He’s only 20 years old. He also had no preseason and a long offseason

Is Skinner playing? I haven’t seen him yet

Thankfully not at the same time.

I was overly optimistic on TT. He belongs on the 3rd line.

Kyle Pitts isn’t falling to us. He will be gone in top 10. I’m expecting a DL.

You forgot the biggest need; TE. We got less production from the position than any other team in the NFL. Knox is a good backup. We need an impact TE. We’ve drafted RB in first 3 rounds 2 years in a row.

His expectations were similar. We traded up in the first to draft him to fill a similar role in a similar scheme as Luke, but he has had nowhere near that type of impact.

The problem is that he will always be compared to Luke Kuechley. Luke was a stud as a rookie and improved from there.

I’m assuming this was posted in an alcohol induced stupor in post Bills depression

NFW. That’s a big long term contract. Now if they’ll take Skinner straight up then it’s a deal.

I do love your unbridled optimism 🙏

Unfortunately, no one is touching that contract.

No way I’m going with an inexperienced head coach. It’s bad enough we have a GM who doesn’t know what he’s doing.

Do people think Staal has been effective? So far he doesn’t look like the answer at 2C to me.

We need to trade for a goalie ASAP

He’s a young Art Garfunkel

No kidding, I wish we had Torts or Mike Keenan as our coach.

I'm hoping he offered up Skinner and and an add and salary reention for PLD.

Well GAIU, I'm sensing a bit of negativity. Unfortunately, Mitts, R2, Quinn and Cozens all need more time to develop. They could all use a full year in Rochester. Botteril rushed Mitts to the Sabres way before he was ready and the consequences were dire. Losing Kahun was a critical error by KA and not improving the goaltending. I am optimistic we will be improved but RK must figure out a way to get some production out of Skinner.

I didn’t think it was possible, but Skinner got demoted. Maybe he ends up on taxi squad.

I remember him discussing Staal as being highly preferred to Strome before others we’re really considering Staal as a realistic option to come here.

What was the truth?
