Weave

Are you proposing that we essentially stand pat with the forward group? No change in the mix of tools/talents at all? I have to say, if we upgrade goalie, and upgrade a D man or two, my prediction is, if you don’t change the mix in the forward group as well, if the team makes the playoffs at all, it will be by the skin of their teeth. For all the goals this team scored, defensive support from the forwards was pretty weak. And they finished 12pts behind a playoff spot in a year that saw uncharacteristically low point levels to get in. You can’t fiddle around the edges with the forwards group and expect to make the playoffs, even if we upgrade D and G. And the forwards group is still too young. Moving a young ROSTER player or two for a vet with a more complimentary, but not matching, skillset is imperative.

Levi wouldn’t be my preference. We need someone who has demonstrated they are up to the task. I’m looking to the other 31 teams in the league as well as the free agency list if I am GM.

Didn’t he work for the league for a bit after he left the Sabres?

I don’t understand how you don’t see Quinn’s expendability as a style of play mix as well. As stated earlier, we have Tuch and Tage as top 6 RWs. We need a player better suited to middle 6 for the spot Quinn occupies. Maybe Quinn blossoms elsewhere. So what? This team needs a different mix. Given that we aren’t moving on from Tage or Tuch, it makes sense to use Quinn to get the different skillset that helps balance out the forward roster. That he has the potential to blossom just makes it more likely we can get a better example of the skillset we lack than if he wasn’t so young.

I really hate the 3 headed monster. We need a clear cut #1 and go with whoever shines preseason as the #2. Sign a plan C for Rochester.

Those groups do not seem well balanced.

Weird. I thought the season ended around Dec 1. Are there teams that play until June?

And knowing the piece is coming is incentive to get the senior advisor news out on a Friday.

Yeah, I got that, and was questioning if being under Adams spell is less damaging than simply being a patsy (and therefore prone to keep being put under a spell, I guess),

Being a patsy might be more damaging than being under a spell.

Aww hell. We get loose cows in my hood.

The self loathing is strong in this one.

Jaro Spacek? Certainly would increase tye average age of the roster.

Maybe.

Correction. Señor advisor.

He might complain if there were other teams willing to sign him to a million bucks.

I am not convinced this brings any meaningful change to the image and perceived competence of this organization, but what the hell, its something.

Unconventional in that I have never heard anyone use it that way, and a google search shows 4 or 5 different versions and yours ain’t one of em. So, yeah, unconventional fits.

That is a rather unconventional definition of generation.

Yeah, as much as I like collecting more talent, this isn’t the droid we should be looking for.

“Glass Norris” I laughed. Then I cried.

I’m just funnin’ ya. I can’t take any of this passionately anymore. Y’all are the entertainment that the Sabres do not provide.

Everyone should have a passion in their life.
