To paraphrase: Adams has no problem with Jack, would welcome him on the team at training camp. This is interesting to me because I have not heard him say anything remotely like this during the whole saga. I always felt Jack was gone because the team wouldn't make a verbal commitment to him. I'm reaching, because I don't want to trade him, but this could mean a lot.

Here’s the thread with quotes: I saw it pointed out in that thread and it's so true: saying as GM that you have "no problem at all" with your best player and captain being with your team is rather telling. Usually it's "he's our captain and leader, and though we are always looking for ways to improve our team, we are planning for him to be with us for camp". You don't say your main man coming back is "no problem". He's assuredly getting dealt.

SABRES 0311 Posted July 24, 2021 Report Posted July 24, 2021 (edited) Do the Sam and Risto trades affect the Eichel trade? If so, how? Edited July 24, 2021 by SABRES 0311

Well would you want some of the ***** offers, Rangers fans are posting on another forum board. I saw: Ryan Strome 2022 1st, Schneider and Chytil, and I was like. Yeah, keep your prospects, and your ridiculous evaluation of them. Also, when Kevyn Adams smirks, he looks like a smarmy douche, that I'd love to punch in the face. 😄

With the first two trades yielding primarily draft picks, is there expectation to get more than one NHL player? Kind of a loaded question.

Kind of a loaded question. Doesn't look like Adams wants "now" players for Jack at least if you think it'll be reflective of the deals we've seen and what Adams has said. Unless you count a guy like Hagg. It's all about a new timeline. Levi is perhaps the best example of that recently. Wouldn't you prioritize what you thought was most important, first? It's been the futures: the NHL roster has gotten significantly worse. I highly doubt he plans to field a competitive roster through free agency as that isn't a strategy I think anyone would agree with. His big trades chips are being cashed and the verdict on "will there be hockey trades?" has so far been a resounding "no". 1
Thorner Posted July 25, 2021 Report Posted July 25, 2021 There was that one rumour about the Sabres being after a now young player for Reinhart and we didn't get that, so I suppose it's possible that factor moves to the Eichel deal for Adams. I'm thinking he targets C prospects though, which we do definitely need now. To his strategy I'd say that's pretty important, if you want to do a big rebuild you have to have more than 2 top 6 C prospects/players on the team/system

Ruff Around The Edges Posted July 25, 2021 Report Posted July 25, 2021 Give me Rossi, Dumba and a 2022 unprotected 1. Replace Boldy with another solid prospect and I am ok with this. Look to keep Dumba long term as a RHD.

If this team is going all youth, then go all youth. 1
