NHL trade & FA rumors (Sabres & Non-Sabres)
Pimlach replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
Too damm old to get that kind of money. IT would be so Buffalo to pay that though. -
Sabres Trade the 11th pick to San Jose for 14th and 42nd Overall
Pimlach replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
@xzy89c1, Can you consider using the forum for its purpose, which is discussion and debate. I am growing tired of seeing your thumbs down and eyeroll responses. Use them if you must but what exactly do you dislike about the comments above? Just wondering what you stand for and agree with, if anything. -
Sabres Trade the 11th pick to San Jose for 14th and 42nd Overall
Pimlach replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
If it doesn’t then we still might get the guy we wanted along at 14, there are several players bunched to together anyway, and we have the extra 2nd which also has trade value. I can complain about Adams with the best of them, and so far he gets a poor grade from me, but this trade was actually ok. He did get some value. Now, if could just improve the NHL roster. -

Yes but how much money do you want to spend on defensemen? -

Old school guys just don’t get a chance with TP.

Jeff Skinner rumors, trade and buyout speculation swirling
Pimlach replied to Flashsabre's topic in The Aud Club
Because it would be a pretty cool thing for Skinsie to do. -
But his resume will show he is leaving the team in good shape, taking Florida to 7 games in the SC finals I would not be upset at all if Terry hired him to run things.

Come on Skinner. Where is your good teammate, wants to be here, good for the room, funny guy between two stalls comradery? Take one for the team and waive the clause, open it up to a few teams. -
Jeff Skinner rumors, trade and buyout speculation swirling
Pimlach replied to Flashsabre's topic in The Aud Club
You might think he has a trade lined for his 1, but the team also wanted a 2, so he went out and got another 2 by trading down a few spots. You might think that but it is hard to tell with Adams. -

It all goes back to his qualifications. He has done a few good things, very few for 4 years, but it seems like other GMs apparently do not take him seriously. -

How is he not too embarrassed to even say that? These comments are becoming his theme. -

Package Skinner (with some salary retention) with whatever combination of players/picks/prospects for Brady. Change the complexion of the team a bit. -
This article actually put me in a sour mood to start my day. Lance is spinning this into something positive I guess. Until Adams makes the necessary moves to make the team better he gets nothing from me. Reading Adams talk about building from the back, goaltending, defense, yada yada. It is year 5 and he just comes up with this? The oldest cliché in the GM handbook.

What? Rick Martin would block the prospects. Oh wait, we are not doing that anymore, that's right.

2024 Stanley Cup Final - Edmonton vs Florida
Pimlach replied to Sabres Fan in NS's topic in The Aud Club
It took guts, conviction, honesty, and knowledge by Zito and his staff to change a Presidents Trophy team so drastically. Many would have stayed the course, it was the safest thing to do. Instead he brings in a new and proven coach, makes major trades to bring in Tkachuk and Reinhart, and of course knowing which players to keep - all of it worked eventually. To think that 2 years ago Florida barely beat out the Sabres for the last seed and they ended up peaking and getting to the finals. Zito has Rick Dudley on his staff as a senior advisor. It takes great leadership and a small ego to hire and listen to advisors. I wonder how much Duds contributed and I am happy he is going to get his name on a Cup. -

Sure, Cozens may someday be worth the contract but he had a "career year" for what was a 3 year career. Only time will tell. -

Levi - only because we spent too many years in goalie hell and I am shell shocked by it. Keep UPL, keep Levi, and let them play. Benson - he plays the right way The only Sabre I would not want to lose right now is Dahlin. Imagine his 25 minutes per game gone.

Skinner's mother probably did it while hoping he ends up on a contender. -

Very few seem to get this. Winning a trade is not the point of making a trade. Take the Mitts-Byram trade. Lets all buy in to the notion that Byram has more upside and will be the better player, even if that never happens. Did the Sabres get better? So far I say no because the hole left by Mitts is much greater than whatever Byram is bringing on defense. Until they add a center at Mitts level or better, the team was weakened by the trade. They have the picks/prospects to add a 2C and they need to do it. I can rant about the Cozens contract next. He is playing 3C level of hockey (sometime less), yet people say I am wrong to want Adams to add a 2C, all because Cozens makes 2C money. Not my fault that Adams blew the Cozens contract, along with Ullmark, Reinhart, etc.
