  1. I think Doan overtakes Greenway within 2 months.
  2. Kesselring is going to end up with Owen Power. It is almost all Adams has spoken about in regards to that trade, "finding a partner for Power".
  3. Nonsense. Good teams with competent management extend their young good players and figure out the cap issues later. They could have extended JJP and traded Jack Quinn. They could have extended JJP and traded Samuelsson. Lots of ways to get JJP under contract. You write this like there was no possible solution, when there were 100 options. Hell, they could have done NOTHING else but extend JJP and would still be under the cap because you are forgetting the 2.325 that's going to Doan and Kesselring. Adams could have been smart and not signed Greenway to 4million bucks when he's worth half of that. They had the space to sign JJP, they wanted to trade him instead or at the very least he didn't want to sign but it the cap was not a hinderance to it happening. No we aren't. That is included in the Sabres current cap number. They have 5.19 million in cap space left including Skinner's 4.44million. https://puckpedia.com/team/buffalo-sabres
  4. This place is such a shitshow these days. Truly the drought has ruined it because there's nothing to talk about. We're gonna have ***** gt with ***** coaching and finish around 83-85pts. Adams will make excuses, Ruff will retire, Appert will be coach (see now I'm making assumptions), and we'll lose again next year. Rinse and repeat. Because the only thing the gm was more afraid of than arbitration was an offer sheet. This isn't hard.
  5. You know what children. You're right, Adams had great processes in place. He's so smart. My bad. See, that's what moving the goalposts looks like. All this bs over a side comment about how funny it all was. Oh cool, didn't know players could just negotiate contracts with themselves. Is that part of the new cba?
  6. When was byrams arbitration hearing? Please tell me. So he literally wasn't taken to arbitration. Thank you.
  7. Funny you think electing arbitration is taking a player to arbitration even though they never went and the player signed before it happened. Reading comprehension, get some.
  8. Bowen Byram did not go to arbitration. Not my fault you don't understand what words mean Promo.
  9. Oh cool, so what did the Arbitration award Byram? When was his arbitration hearing held? Would love to read up on it. You're so full of ***** it hurts.
  10. Go look up what adams said about jbd "I think from our perspective, where his projected salary was going to come out and where we had him slotted in the 8th spot.. just felt like that didn’t make sense with also having Ryan Johnson (and others).. that’s why we made the decision we made.” Kevyn Adams He was literally afraid of being on the hook for an arbitration award higher than he felt while openly admitting he views Bryson higher. Jfc kids, it's bad process and I'm being debated about how bad it is. Wtf are we doing here.
  11. He literally did not. No one went to arbitration.
  12. The gm was afraid of arbitration. We know because of his words and actions. That's hilarious because it's a formality in 19 out of 20 cases.
  13. Now this is goalposts moving. You think the issue is Timmins? No, it's that they let a guy go because "what if he files for arbitration!?" Which was the gms rationale only to sign a guy who immediately filed for arbitration. It's hilarious and bad decision making because as you point out, they all sign anyways.
  14. The gm said they didn't want to do arbitration with JBD and then signed a bad player and allowed another player to file for arbitration b4 signing him. It's not moving the goalposts, it's recognizing incompetent decision making.
  15. Signing Timmins while releasing JBD but keeping Bryson is still incompetent.
  16. We literally have not experienced the change from Cozens to Norris. The latter only played 3 games.
  17. His... checks notes... 62 game nhl career? Well, that's certainly true. Idk what Doan will be but I don't think he's a toss in. Is he a 25pt bottom 6 guy with good defense or a 50pt top 6 guy with good defense? Guess we'll see but I'd bet this year will be up and down for him.
  18. The Sabres are the least experienced team in the league. The defense has 1 guy who has over 300 games played.
  19. I stand by my statement. This group is lacking and listing seasons played and then talking about the adversity they've faced as one of the least experienced groups in the league is hiding behind those seasons played. Not a single member of the group is over 25, calling them "men" as though they've reached that late 20s level is questionable.
  20. By games this defense is not experienced. Stop trying to hide that behind seasons played. This might be the least experienced defense group in the league.
