Biggest Sabres non-blunders since 2013 (or 2011)

[Stoner]

I was going to make a poll, but there are too many.

Enjoy.

The 50th Anniversary unis.

Going back to Royal Blue and the White Royal Jerseys are perfection. They even kept the textured Buffalo logo which is a major win.

Making MMA look like the Aud was fantastic.

Anything hockey-related?

Enrolling the goalies in the Tre' Academy.

Refresher couses muchly needed.

I think I am speaking English very goodly now.

The "3rd" uniforms have been fabulous.

Returning to royal blue.

Recolouring KBC like the Aud was so good that, when they renovate the place, I would love to see a variety of colours.

On, the ice?  Sheesh.  Help!

The actual acquisition of ROR I think was great. But I’ve liked ROR since he was drafted. And still do. So perhaps I’m bias.

This thread doesn’t seem as popular as the negative ones.

There have been many good moves and decisions, except the bad has always outweighed them so far.

Good: 

Drafting: Eichel, Dahlin, UPL, Olofsson, Risto, McCabe, Cozens, Ullmark and possibly others

Trades: Acquiring ROR, Scandella/Pominville, Jokiharju, and Skinner

Signings: Gionta, possibly Hall, and Lazar.

Not much there for 10 years. Drafting Eichel and Dahlin were  automatic moves, no credit given.  
 

I guess remodeling the dressing room was good too?

except the stadium is a dump.

No not much good after ten years and that is why we still are only a 1 pt per game hockey team.

I should add that drafting Reinhart was a good pick but sadly was the wrong one.  Not as bad as Rick Seiling (who was a very good player) over Mike Bossy, but bad as Leon is the much better player. However Reinhart is a very good top 6 forward and key piece of this team if we are ever going to turn things around.  

Also many moves looked good when made but didn't pan out such as re-signing Moulson or acquiring Gorges for just a 2nd rd pick.
