No. But Kane’s tenure here was utterly pointless
- sbroads24


I agree that we didn't improve overall while he was here. I would rather have had him around when the team was actually contending.

I can only imagine the hate you are going to have on Jack in 2 years when we are still trying to climb out of this hole.

We didn’t make that trade to get a 20 goal scorer. Period. This is revisionist history
- sbroads24



He had 28 last year and would of been similar playing with Eichel again. That’s about what I expected. There will always be a few nuts who think Eichel will score 100 pts and all his wingers like Kane would score 40 goals. Anyone with critical thinking skills were not expecting this.

Kane was exactly what I expected. Trade helped us secure Eichel over strome. And we will get some pieces back today.

I am using my Brain and its nonsense. Murray never traded for Kane thinking he would be a 40 goal scorer.
- sabresfan69


I think Murray had some players that he really liked and paid less attention to how exactly they will all fir together.

Then just overpaid to get the players he wanted.

A 20 goal scorer on THIS team is a STUD.

We never had Eichel yet....nonsense
- sabresfan69



Eichel or mcdavid. The Kane Trade helped lock down last place. He was injured at the time, basically punting Kane to the next season.

That's a great point. 2 teams, under the spot light.

The crazy fans of buffalo and high tv ratings, keep us fans looking for information constantly.

How much good news could come from a 17 year draught with the bills

And 7 years with the sabres ??

What positive spin can be put on losing constantly?

- Boss34


Yep. No where to run and hide in Buffalo for these players. bigger expectations and pressure for new guys coming in due to past failures. This includes GM's, Coaches

- Boss34

So he traded first and multiple assets for a player that was injured so he could get

Eichel/Mcavid.

We were well on the way to doing that, regardless.

He brought Kane in to be the top line winger to ride the wing of the young Center they were kidding.

OH F)(*^ ME

He is now playing video games.

GMTM had a plan for his team.

It was Kane riding 1st line wing 30+ goals a year, it was Bogosian anchoring the top 4.

It failed, miserably, hence he is not here anymore.

This is true.

But it doesn't also mean he thought the guy was going to put in 40 goals.
