  1. I saw it mentioned just as a theory by a good sabres twitter source that Bolduc would be the guy we get from STL for Byram and I honestly can’t unsee it now. It’s the exact Adams F add My money is on that shoot first, quick, ratio of 19 goals to 17 assists..this is going to be our guy
  2. Well now I DO have a problem with it. Thank you for bringing it to my attention
  3. You only like Peterka more than average around here since yesterday at around 11 pm you’re good
  4. I literally haven’t heard of him till today but the sabres acquired him so, would I be right in assuming he’s a shoot first player?
  5. Well the good thing about less talented and good players is we don’t have to pay them as much (I’m sure that’s coincidental) That they are inexpensive is neither a reflection of their value nor the reasons we traded for them. PURELY coincidental
  6. I wonder if the priority was getting the best return possible We’ll never know
  7. It’s a good place to start re: prediction for a Byram deal. Think player with good metrics in more limited minutes we think we can bump up to a larger role Remember: we aren’t looking for a guy with proven results, here: we are looking for someone unproven in an impact role but theoretically potentially able to play one
  8. Banking on limited usage and hoping it extrapolates is what the Sabres do. So lazy. Just horrendous mechanics leading to this deal you know what, I’m starting to think there’s a at least a *chance* Kevyn Adams might not be a great general manager
  9. McLeod is pretty well rounded but so is Rossi I believe. McLeod had 23 points the same age Rossi just had 60 So I’d imagine Rossi’s ceiling is quite a bit higher considering he’s already passed mcleods career outlier I don’t really think centres or passers are something Adams is interested in
  10. He’s a centre, he’s 23, and his career points trajectory so far is 1-40-60
  11. Friedman on the Fan 590 is adamant ADAMANT that Kesselring was a guy Adams was specifically targeting, and one league person told him earlier this summer “if one guy moves it’s Kesselring to Buffalo” so Adams focused on him as the guy we needed and traded what we needed to get him
  12. So would you redo this trade given a chance given you said you wouldn’t do it for less than Robertson?
  13. How do the players we got compare to Robertson in your estimation? total value
  14. Hard to get traits for easier to find and cheaper. Their MO the new “revamped 4th line”
  15. Well didn’t Adams say specifically that he was saving for the RFAs? Like we know that was what they WANTED us to think the plan was but I think he also outright said it multiple times
  16. you are such an angry little man lol. Please never change you agreed with me that the idea of trading JJ for nothing being considered “addition by subtraction” would be stupid - candidly I don’t really care about any of the other noise you are throwing into the discussion as you always do.
