Both GMs own it

It’s a quote from Botterill at the time lol we absolutely did not have to trade ROR stop rewriting history. He expressed disappointment. No trade request, even. enough of that bogus narrative. its one of the worst deals we’ve ever made. We dealt ROR exactly when Eichel came off his ELC and actually got good. Setting back the timeline WILLINGLY, *again*, which is ALWAYS our issue “we got Thomson” is putrid logic. You can’t just ignore all context in a trade and the aspects of team building and time. Come on now. That trade directly led to the dispatch of the Eichel and Reinhart core. And as mentioned: failing logic. If we dealt Tage Thompson right now for a draft pick and the pick became Draisaitl in 5 years does that make it a good trade?

Beer on the bench beer on the bench acting like a fool with your beer on the bench Guard in your mouth helmet turned sideways

He’s not good

Botterill tore it down to the studs for Dahlin

The WC2 line in the east has been at 75 points since last Saturday. It has not moved in a week. The pace over 82 has now fallen to 85 they are literally handing out playoff spots the sabres 84 points last year is now one off the projected total

Few crucial players on a 75 point team. Never mind wingers. I’m not saying I wouldn’t keep him I’m saying he’s not a crucial piece in building a playoff team - we just signed a 50+ point winger in FA it’s the one thing you CAN get with relative ease. I see talent but not a game breaker right now with Peterka I’m not creating statues of him like Terry

Sort of the copy paste answer but better than nothing I don’t think he’s a crucial piece but he’s a pretty good player

They still have an OT loss to give in their back pocket

Go Jays

Thread was never pinned bad luck

McLeod’s assist heater is terrifying re: an Adams top 6 runback

One would think

The ready made excuse potential is scary

Adams might have been weakest at addressing goalie and that’s saying something

Playoff cut line will be 85 after today. 9-1-1 would likely do it

Not even close to over

A playoff defence?

He just got absolutely walked

Dahlin is out, it’s all about Tage

go Sabres

Rangers lose

Rangers headed to OT after blowing lead Habs lose Sabres can pull within 7 points after being 15 back, 5 days ago

Don’t need to add any forwards though. Just fix them by choice Our forwards that are 19th in the league at even strength xG% are totally fine when you reach 19th, you know you can rest I mean, it’s 19th Our other metrics are all terrible. But, 19th at even strength! You have to give Adam’s credit for that, at least. 5 years, but we are 19th at even strength. 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

The sabres don’t need upgrades they just need to choose to fix things. Team D can just be improved and the special teams fixed: don’t improve the forwards to do it, just do it.
