[Randall Flagg]

This thread is about the League's fire sale, which has definitely happened and then some already.

Do CBJ offer their 3 picks plus for Jack?

I hope the Sabres Media Team have multiple cameras recording the drama right now inside the Draft War Room fielding all the calls.  Would make an EPIC "Blue & Gold" Episode!!!  Oh, to be a fly on that wall right now.

Hopefully my negative energy brings a trade.

 

Looks like Jacks gonna be here  what a bust of a night

I wouldn’t call it a bust.  We still have the draft to go and the Risto trade was kinda big for us.  Maybe KA wants to see how everyone’s rosters shake out after tonight to see what he can get.

I'd be surprised if an Eichel or Reinhart deal happens tonight.   The next few weeks more likely IMO.

Kevin learned his lesson last season when the camera recorded him signing all those crappy players that were supposed to get us in the playoffs.

If as reported we are trading Risto, Reinhart, Eichel and possibly others for young prospects and draft choices are we in denial that this is the beginning of TANK 2 day?? Does anyone actually believe we'll be a playoff team or contender this coming year?? Last season was a disaster from injuries to the under reported Covid outbreak  to the veteran pickups not leading the young guys to XHCRK being incapable of turning around the team after things started going wrong to the season ending Adams and Eichel and others speaking out at the press conference. Whatever the reasons Tank 1 failed and there does appear to be many questions as to who is to blame with the fanbase.

On the optimistic side as opposed to the wasting of assets and the total barren organizational talent left afterwards of Tank 1 we do seem to have the possibility that Mitts, Dahlin, Cozens, Joki, Ruosto, Samuelsson, Bryson, Quinn, JJP, Asplund and Thompson and this years draft class will keep us afloat until these mythological prospects and future saviors develop. Tank 2 unfortunately appears to be starting where Tank 1 should have. This years trade returns, this years draft and lets not fool ourselves next years draft should be the start of finally getting this organization back on its feet again. We can only hope they don't fail again. 

Anybody on the TANK 2 train yet?? Just asking after the Reinhart return.

Not a tank when you’re already dead last and your management, ownership etc are incompetent. Jebus murphy jehosaphat.
