  1. Mixed bag? You are too kind.
  2. We might have two fourth lines at this rate. Still no 2C on the roster.
  3. Who do you like for 2C or even a 3C ?? This is the move that could make or break the line up.
  4. But his good friend was pounding on the table to acquire the toughest Hersey Bear in the AHL.
  5. Not ready for sure. Apparently not as valuable as Adams thinks either. That why I was upset about not trading 14OA. But even that was too hard for some reason.
  6. Sure. A 2C is our biggest need. Not happening though.
  7. You see the news and you see the good teams are already on track to sign the best players. 4 years under the cap for what reason? The last two season were so grossly mishandled and completely wasted. Clearly the Sabres are not taken as a serious franchise.
  8. Murray was terrible. JBot terrible. Adam’s so far is terrible. No way to sugarcoat any of it. You saw Kulich, Rosen and Savioe last year in the longest tryout in NHL history. They are not ready
  9. It’s finally starting to get to me. I have a feeling that there is no hope for this team once again this coming season. I see a few mid level moves. That’s it.
  10. You really hate this trade.
  11. That dream is over and Stamkos is never signing here.
  12. Agree. Greenway was a good deal and I’m hoping Malenstyn is as well. I still need to see more of Byram, and Adam’s must make a deal to replace Mitts. Not only replace him, but he should upgrade from him while the assets are there. Get a 2C and make the team better.
  13. Worthy to bring up. This is a normal cycle and it’s interesting to see that Adams picks will be filling Rochester now.
  14. Why would the other GM mutter “oh for f sake”? Why wouldn’t he ask the player if was serious about moving him? Why wouldn’t he still try his team? As we see, Buffalo has developed some very good players over the past 10 years or so. In the course of a year, working on trades is a small percentage of the time spent for a GM.
  15. I was gonna post this. A caller told him. Oh wow. There may be a few GMs that don’t like The Sabres Organization for whatever reason, maybe it’s agents they deal with, but highly doubtful there is collusion.
  16. We have Helenius and Malenstyn for pick 11.
  17. Absolutely. The guys with big strong thighs and butts have an advantage. You could see that with our own Gilbert way back in the day. Core strength and legs help forwards get up and down the ice and help them with leverage for puck battles. Helenius has good size already and a frame to grow on. I like the comparisons to Barkov’s game as well. Responsible both ways.
  18. Berube likes 2-way players.
  19. Average 4c numbers but does not bring in high end faceoff, pk, or physical play. That takes him to a bit below average but yes, he has room to improve and he does what is asked.
  20. The forward group is weak. Needs a 2C. Pushes Cozens down to 3C for now until he shows he is ready for more. Needs a 4C and 2 more bottom 6 wingers. Handing a job to Savoie is not wise, he should start in Rochester. That makes Krebs a 13 until he shows more.
  21. How should they use Krebs? He doesn’t win draws. His shot is poor and he hasn’t shown any ability to finish. He can pass but yet does not create offense. He was poor as a 3C last season. He is a bit below average as a 4C. He has a little grit but he is not physically strong. He has some ability to be defensively responsible but is he really a shut down guy? This season is important for him. He should be the spare forward but I doubt Adams will bring in two centers, even though he should.
  22. Joki will get dominated in playoffs. Did you watch the play in front of the net in the SCF? Clifton is a better third pair guy and we need the physical play. Muel gets another year and hopefully he can be healthy on the 3rd pair Trade Joki would be my choice but bring on another Top 4 guy to play with Power or Bryam. Let’s get better and stop shuffling a losing hand. They need one more guy that is a top 4.
