Stoner Posted June 28 Report Posted June 28 (edited) 30 minutes ago, LGR4GM said: We haven't made the playoffs in 13 years. We haven't won a playoff series since 2007. Yet you want us to worry about what might happen on our cap in 2025 with a couple of RFAs we could easily bridge for 3 years? It's kind of my CapFriendly rant in a nutshell. Stop trying to be a GM. Be a fan. (Not addressed to you.) Edited June 28 by PASabreFan Quote

Pretending to be a GM is part of being a fan. From as early as NHL 2000 I used to play Be a GM mode in every NHL game I owned. Its most certainly an element to the fun for some fans. 1 minute ago, LGR4GM said: Who is that? Ehlers in what Iafallo maybe? Yes 4 Quote

Taro T Posted June 28 Report Posted June 28 3 hours ago, French Collection said: TSN’s Craig Button with a long winded story of Stamkos going to UFA. He says the best fit would be Buffalo. He could be a complimentary offensive piece that has immediate credibility upon entering the dressing room. https://www.tsn.ca/nhl/video/button-stamkos-will-have-a-lot-of-offers-tampa-wont-be-able-to-r~2948242 This would help attract the bottom six guys as well. Would be more hopeful if it were someone other than Button talking about it. And, yeah it would help, but based on the lack of Sabre moves the past few days am not overly hopeful for something that big. (But snagging Kane in 3 days would still qualify as big, too.) Quote

SABRES 0311 Posted June 28 Report Posted June 28 I have a strange feeling KA will ice a very very similar team as last year. I do think Skinner will be gone and some fourth liner will be added but overall, same roster. 1 1 Quote
Mr. Allen Posted June 28 Report Posted June 28 We’re all reading and thinking about all these scenarios Adams can improve the team. Imagine if he does nothing and then tells us how he tried but nothing hit. 1 Quote

kas23 Posted June 28 Report Posted June 28 1 hour ago, Pimlach said: Canucks would be acting like real team if they bring in Marino for Zadorov. I wish the Sabres could do these things. Simple things are hard for them. For some reason the culture issues feel more real right now. We need a few really positive moves to improve the roster. Ffs, his old coach is now in Buffalo. He’s a need. If he likes Ruff and more importantly, if Ruff liked him, it really sounds like a slam dunk. Yet, here we are, discussing him going to Vancouver. Quote

Imagine if he does nothing and then tells us how he tried but nothing hit. Like he’s done the last two years? I agree with @thewookie1. If Adams brings back the same roster save a few bottom of the barrel FAs like last offseason he should be fired before training came starts. Quote

I was pointing to the fact that teams are making moves, filling holes, etc. Next time I'll clear my posts with you in advance, ok? Edited June 28 by Pimlach 1 Quote
