Sabres Fan in NS

Once upon a time he was a real good golfer.

Of course, plans can, do and should change when needed. I don't think at this point the plans have deviated so much as to have JBOT going after a 2C. IMO, if he did, as @... said, the plan has been blown up.

Sorry ... to be clear I think Mitts will be a very good 2C for the Sabres. My second point in that sentence was about JBOT not trading for a 2C, which is what I would be surprised at ... if he does trade for a 2C.

Your proposal is what everyone would call a 'hockey trade', which I think all would welcome. I am not suggesting we trade Samson, but if he is part of a package to bring in a 2C then maybe. Although that would be trading one of our few good wingers, which would leave the Sabres with that problem compounded. If the powers that be still believe Mitts will develop into a 2C then JBOT will not be trading for one. I actually will be very surprised if he does. To me bringing in a 2C now smells of desperation and deviates from the plan.

Inky?

I really do not want the Sabres to be sellers regardless of the standings. Keep fighting to the bitter end for once in 7, or 8, years.

Just leave it off and trust yourself. I hate it.

SwampD has been through a lot in this life, especially recently. I think we should cut him some slack on this one.

Mr. Ankles, You have been here almost a year. You should know our Inky by now.

So far, not so good, eh? I have read a lot of 'trade speculation' posts in this thread and, IIRC, only about 1 trade.

I was thinking the same thing, but about the scouting departments. I think most GMs listen to their scouts when it comes to the draft.

I had not even thought of that part of it. The game was frustrating, but what I find much more frustrating is that someone here is actually advocating for the Sabres to lose more in order to enhance their draft position. Have we not *suffered* enough already? I think the break will do the team and the fans good. We all need to regenerate.

Frustrating.

Down ...

^^^^^ Did you fall in?

That doesn't seem horrible. GO SABRES!!

Is this by some 'urban dictionary' definition of jerk? PA has a way with words, but just because you don't like those words does not make him a 'jerk'.

You guys are pounding PA pretty hard here. I've pretty much agreed with all that he has to say about the fancy stats and have said as much, but nobody goes after me. Makes me wonder.

What's up with Skinny?

That's it, I think. Bergy lost his love for the game really and he was sick over it. He walked away from a lot of $. He walked away gladly. That means, at least to me, that Bergy really did loose his love of the game, where ROR really didn't. ROR lost his love for the Sabres.

The game starts at 11 PM here. I probably won't even make it to puck drop. I will be up at 6:00 AM tomorrow morning, as usual.

^^^^^ Where is that new fancy 'power puke' thingie when you really need it ... ?

Why has this beaut not been locked yet?

Bump ... Another Friday ... another week ...

Looks like you have not read the whole thing. You are missing a lot, if not all, of the context behind the OP.
