Do You Think The Sabres Top Brass Sees This As A “Tank” Season?

Tokarski is not elite… but Tokarski is a gamer… He will win plenty of games… -
Should KA Let Jack Get The Surgery He Wants?
Believer replied to bob_sauve28's topic in The Aud Club
Agree it is the Pegula’s call… If it were my decision, when Eichel and his Reps give up any claim to remaining contract compensation if he is unable to pass a team physical after the surgery he wants… he can have it his way… The Sabres retain all rights… Pass or fail, let any team outside the division make an offer… -
Underappreciated… Tokarski was up to the task…
-
Bravo, Tokarski… Just solid…
-
Granato Factor…
-
Eichel doesn’t want to play for Buffalo any longer… He made it crystal clear in word and deed… All the wishful hoping to the contrary is magical thinking… KA is right to trade him when he gets a fair return… If not, Eichel may stay on the roster… but I wouldn’t let him near the locker room full of our positive young players… unless he did a very private apology to the team… and a very public apology to the Pegulas and Buffalo fans…
-
Looks like a pouty teenager to me…
-
Why is anyone surprised??… Where was Captain Jack’s public support for his teammates during their 18 game losing streak??… Not a word from him…
-
My bet is KA Will not get his pocket picked… and Eichel will refuse to go to training camp… Both good for the Sabres… If KA lets Eichel anywhere near the locker room, it will be a betrayal on his public statement that he “only wants players who want to be here”… and a setback to his credibility and to the rebuild… Give the “C” to a worthy player…
-
Yep… It will be painful to miss the playoffs absent a miracle… But Granato and the kids proved last season they can play exciting and entertaining… if not playoff caliber… hockey… It will be fun to watch them grow together…
-
KA can send him home… Let Eichel continue the healing and play beer hockey with his pals… If he stays in shape, more than likely a team on the cusp of the playoffs or making a run for the Cup will be willing to meet KAs deal… if he passes their medical… and doesn’t self-destruct in the meantime…
-
Jack In The Box… As in Press Box… Rename the yacht after his contract expires in five years…
-
My bet is Eichel is so frustrated… he made his Reps respond publicly to KA… The bridge is burned… Let the boy stew… Might do him some good… Get a little humility when he realizes he’s not as valuable as he imagined…
-
Magical Thinking from a couple of Boneheads… (What a team Eichel has working for him)… KA should hold his position… Sit Eichel out… Some team will meet his deal sooner than later…
-
The thing about sports-related surgeries is, it takes time to know… Ask Jim Kelly as he recovers from a second ankle replacement after the first surgery failed… Word of caution to Eichel… and any team who wants him…
-
Taking a page from the Bills… What took so long??
-
Maybe KA got a quick course from Beane… on Contracts & Contract Management…
-
Like I said… he knows the guy…
-
If the reports you say are true… must have been a reason, eh??… Maybe Eichel’s fighting Sabre Medical staff??… or abandoning his team during the 18 game losing streak, (as their Captain no less) rehabbing away from Buffalo??… Maybe Eichel’s sour grapes season-ending presser??… Props to KA if your reports are true… He had plenty of reasons to shop the guy… He knows him…
-
Too late, Eichel… You want out… You are dead to me…
-
I am all in for clearing away the losing attitudes, resetting the culture, and rebuilding around the core of young players who are excited to play for Buffalo… but if KA allows Eichel to return, he will be setting back the process he just started… and undermining the rebuild… The prima donna’s attitude is poisonous… If he can’t move him, take the “C” back and send him home… Some playoff contender will meet KA’s price sooner than later… Will be a sign of confidence in Granato and the kids… It will send reverberations around the league… Things are different in Buffalo… No better time than now for bold leadership… The Pegulas would be smart to let Adams and his team run the club…
-
Said it many times since the season ended… Eichel is a cancer… KA needs to keep him as far away from the kids as possible… No way he stays…
-
Don’t believe for a skinny minute Granato or the kids are going to play to lose…
-
Thanks…

I went through the ***** on this site also. They criticize someone for posting "off topic" but when one of the regulars does it, it's perfectly acceptable. Mostly,many on here are delusional, you'll figure it out soon enough. It is amusing to read many of the posts though and in the end, we're here because we are Sabres fans. But basically, don't let them get to you and defend yourself and your post when you need to. Everyone, including myself, posts ***** on here. Welcome to the board!
-
Thanks, eman… Good advice… Still wondering why it was a stupid question… Think it is past time for Kim to step aside… Ten years of losing is testament to the Pegulas inexperience… Anyway, appreciate your kind words… Go Sabres!
-
I totally agree. Kim has zero experience running a hockey team and it shows. This franchise is a disgrace. Absolutely she should be gone from running it. It isn't personal with Kim, I don't dislike Kim but the results are the results in a results driven profession. I am having to defend myself on this site right now about me being concerned with the number of Swedes we are accumulating on this team. This board is delusional to say the least. Hang tough!

Well, obviously you know something I don’t… Educate me, please…
