The guy was president of the Sabres for what a year and a half?

How was he the one keeping the Sabres from being a Stanley Cup winning team?

He did such a wonderful job For the world jrs and he’s been fantastic at making the sabers arena the biggest joke


It was just a matter of time before that Rat would be in player meetings and signings and who to hire

If you think Russ Brandon is the reason the Buffalo Sabres are this bad what little respect I had for you as far as hockey knowledge is gone.

The fact remains the team sucks so the fans are unhappy. The arena was just as bad when Ted Black was team President.

We saw what that rat did to move up in the bills Company ( back Stabbing Leaking rumors to get people fired)

Who knows what damage he could’ve done with the sabres that’s why I said it ..

The Boulder that was keeping this team from winning a Stanley Cup?

You need to learn how to phrase things better.

Apparently He’s the one that leaked the audio of the Owners Meeting to The NY Times

Np, I admit if he was still in charge (along with others from years ago) I'd be sour on the idea.

But the changes they've made over the years has already yielded better results than before.

Less McCabes and Foligno's (who you can find in FA/trade all the time) and more Guhle's , Olofsson's and Weissbach's (jury's still out on them but the results are impressive so far).

I get that even still it's a long shot, but in my mind it's long shot vs no shot re: ROR. But that's mostly because of my evaluation of ROR, not the idea that a first round pick is guaranteed success

If we're lucky, we might get pick #10-15 for ROR, yay. I'm sure we won't choose Girgensons/Grigorenko/Ennis/Zagrapan there this time!
- jcragcrumple

I’m pretty sure we won’t either.

I also think we’d get more than just a 10-15 range pick

That one would be great to pan out. GR interviewed Dahlin's coach and he said Olofsson is a legit sniper. they put him on the PP to be a sniper, and the coach said he didn't disappoint. It would feel great to hit on a pick beyond the 2nd round. Foligno, Gaustad and Miller are our only recent ones. A 7th rounder developing into a real player would be huge
