Good or bad jerseys, they aren’t getting another penny out of me until they show that they know what they are doing. 17 years as STH did me in. No more tix, merchandise, or anything else. Watch the games for free on TV, and that’s it.

You know that is not what I meant.

- Dahlin is not going to be a HoF, a Norris Trophy winner, or even a perennial all-star in his career. I know he is young, but I just don't see it. - The hiring of Adams is going to leave the Sabres as the laughing stock of the league. - Another bottom ten finish and Eichel will tap out. - Oloffson will top Skinner's goal total in a big way, making the 9 mil contract look even worse. - Borgen will surprise on the blueline. - If they go with Ullmark and Hutton again, goaltending will be the #1 reason why the team is on the outside looking in.

If you were a betting man, what odds would you give that Adam and his reduced hockey ops staff succeed? 25%, 50%? I don't think going with the no experience option for your #1 hockey ops guy, is going to sit well with the STH who have payed for crap over the last 10 years. If they think they have a financial problem now, wait until they start seeing crowds under 10,000. Prepare for a mass exodus of STH when fans are allowed back in. Hahahah. Some really knowledgable fans right there.

There were plenty of financial steps that could have been taken without being penny pinchers in terms of the GM position. Instead they hired a GM based on being a good boy who Kim and Terry like. Basically the success of the hockey team is now playing second fiddle to finances. Recipe for disaster.

Wait a minute. The Pegula's during their dismal decade of Sabres ownership, hired two guys as the GM who had no experience in the role of NHL GM, fired both of them, and then doubled down by hiring a guy who not only had no experience as an NHL GM, he has no experience working in an NHL front office on the hockey ops side of the business...and you can't find any criticism with that?

1st round PLAYOFF losers

A good placeholder 2C, a 2nd line/3rd line winger, and a goaltending upgrade is a must for 20-21. Fail to accomplish this, and the Sabres are looking at another bottom 10 finish...the silver lining...Adams is so well liked by Kym that his job is safe no matter what crap he throws out on the ice.

It's both. If you don't think having "old school nastiness" in some of your players is a benefit, then we will agree to disagree.

I want a vacation, but refuse to travel. ?

I’ve found myself watching more than I thought. Two outcomes I just can’t stand to watch in terms of finals matchups...having either St Louis or Toronto being part of them.

Most players don’t change in this regard. Either they play with a physical edge to their game, or they don’t. People hope now that Tage put on some muscle that he will be more physical and nastier...chances are that it is not going to happen.

Yep. Nothing more than that.

What a joke. Nepotism at it’s finest. I have absolutely no faith that Kymmy got it right with Kevyn as her choice for GM.

If you need an owner, I’ll step in.

Kevyn tells Kym about his plans...she tells the Pegula girls...they blab about it to anyone who will listen. ?

I meant Chicago. ?

I guess I had really tuned out the Sabres and the NHL by the trade deadline. I had no idea Lehner was traded to Vegas. ?

Then they need to fix the sync issue. Clearly his video feed is a couple seconds behind what we are seeing at home.

Is Doc Emrick at the arena? All his goal calls seem delayed? Even if he is not there, they should be able to sync it better.

I have the progressive trifocals, and they always suck when getting a new pair. If the glasses aren't sitting correctly on your face based on the measurements they took, it will take multiple visits back to the eye doctor to either have the frames adjusted or the lenses re-done.

I just went to 5 different stores in order to find Sevin(insect concentrate for plants/bushes)...and then they wonder why Amazon is doing so much better than brick and mortar establishments.

Be careful not to get hurt when patting yourself on the back. ?
