How is waiting for a better offer setting the bar high? If there was no offer before and no offer now that's not setting the bar high, that's waiting to see what is out there. Would you have been happier if he traded Kane for a conditional 1st, a prospect, and a 4th in December rather than February? Would that have made it a good trade?

Are you mad you got yourself excited for a trade deadline that disappointed you?

A couple people in here think we would have gotten 2 1sts in December because Kane had a few goals in a few games. This is not the barometer of sensible thinking.

I'm not mad at all. I feel vindicated. GMTM got a raw deal and was replaced by someone less competent. Like I said, I'm not always right, but aint ever been wrong.

I led the “Kane will get us a good return” wagon train

I never thought he’d get all 4 pieces

Was hoping for an “a” prospect & a conditional 2nd that would become a 1st if he re-signed

Unfortunately,
we got what most though would be the lowest possible return

Sucks, but what can we do?
Apparently no one offered more

Well I was on the fence of renewing tickets. Today made decision easier.

Fattony, I appreciate your opinions, and the fact that you are a fellow season ticket holder:

Keep your tickets

The sabres want them back.
They want the tickets out of the resale market.
This schedule was terrible for resale on purpose.
(As well as the product)

Pricing for the cheapest seat vs. Toronto on Monday
$89 each plus fees.

Season ticket price -$30

Sabres will be exciting next year.

This will be a regrettable move, similiar to selling in North buffalo 8-10 years ago

GMTM's team didn't make the playoffs either. He made a team that flopped. He traded for players that weren't great and paid a king's ransom. He traded a 1st for a goalie that is an average goalie. He traded 1sts like people in here wanted to trade 5ths. Murray's defense was terrible, his thoughts of what made a good team were antiquated, and he had no results to back up his gambles. He got fired because he made the wrong moves.

What a reasonably accurate account of his failings

All the assets GMTM wasted...

How did he get a raw deal?

Moulson Contract
Overpaid for ROR
overpaid for Kane and Bogosian
Overpaid for Lehner and a Cap Dump
Kulikov for Pysyk
Didn't move any rentals on a failing team
Had no answers for the owner.

I don't blame him, based on what i heard today its going to be 3-4 years before this team starts to get good again.

And there’s so much more too

Hat lives in this dream world where even though GMTM failed in basically every move he made,
He should’ve been given more time to screw thing up even further

He must be a bartender too,
and just misses his best customer
