SABRES 0311

I wouldn’t offer the player anything. I would talk to all 30 teams and write their offers down. Then I’d pick the one with the most return. Sam may very well be a rental for FLA but he’s still going to produce beyond the value of what will likely be a mid-20s pick.

30 other teams and the best we get is a conditional pick and a 7th round 19 year old.

He was a second overall pick and carried the team in Jack’s absence. That Risto got us more of a haul is funny. The fact KA agreed to a conditional pick is disgusting. At best Sam gets us an 11th overall or worse who might turn into an NHL player someday.

I’d laugh if FLA sends him to VAN for a first and top six player.

KA has a new daddy.

KA is reminding everyone how awesome at his job he is. I mean did every other team offer less than Florida? How many teams did he even talk to? I’m calling this a lazy trade by KA with no actual proof.

I’ve watched Lincoln so many times lately. I love hearing him tell stories to explain his thinking. Good movie, good actors.

Plus if teams were calling us about him then a bidding battle should help bring a good return.

This trade needs to have a good player coming back. We got a first round pick and second for Risto. Not sure but I think Sam is a little bit more of an asset.

Wyatt Johnston’s dad had the best reaction. 😂

I dunno. I’d say she’s cute enough for radio.

KA fed the peasants with a good trade. He’s now free to be himself.

Some guy off camera shaking a Devils hat in front of the kid. He just put the jersey on and you own his professional life. I don’t think it’s that urgent he puts the team’s hat on.

Brandt Clarke looked extremely relieved and happy.

I wouldn’t call it a bust. We still have the draft to go and the Risto trade was kinda big for us. Maybe KA wants to see how everyone’s rosters shake out after tonight to see what he can get.

I think it helps set market value for picks that are involved. I really hope an Eichel trade lands a good player.

To be fair the Sabres were already dead. He just needed to stop by and be sure before moving on.

This is a thread that could be renamed and repurposed during the season. A prediction thread for now but a comparative thread throughout the year with analysis at the end as the Sabres play early golf.

Probably right on dodging a bullet but we men are simple creatures. At least she’s not a Kardashian. As far as the COVID thing, just keep on keepin on.

I agree that it’s dumb to have a wedding if someone tested positive. The mother of the bride is stupid and from your post it sounds like it’s a dominant trait in that gene pool. Dont agree on the publicly naming.

They don’t see it as taking a shot to increase survival. They see it as someone telling them they have to accept an injection or else. I don’t think any minds get changed ideologically. Now there’s reports of heart inflammation from the Pfizer vaccine and Guillain-Barr syndrome from J&J. Add in the distrust people already have in big pharma and there’s no way you will convince them to get jabbed no matter how unlikely it is for these side effects to happen.

People don’t trust the people telling them to take the vaccine. Add in people on TV who advocate mandatory vaccination to be able to do certain things. This makes people not want to get it out of defiance. I doubt vaccination rates go much higher. World keeps turning.

Too fat 😂

They are reasonable by normal human standards. For Sabres management they are as bold as you can get.

-Eichel gets traded but Sam stays and gets the C. -Eichel goes to a western team and gets booed when he plays in Buffalo. Proceeds to have a multi-goal game. -Cozens gets put and stays in the top six. Scores 15 goals on the wing. -Mitts starts at 2C and everyone quickly regrets it. -Sabrespace debates Cozens at 2C over Mitts by the half way mark of the season. -Risto is traded at the deadline not before. -Dahlin has a big rebound from last year and gets an A. -Tage doesn’t get any better or valuable. He goes in a Risto deal.
