Well then I took it the wrong way!
- Buff36


point i was trying to make was less so about buffalo going out and finding useful free agents (with extremely limited success) and more so about "they signed {a name or two} and now they're going to lap us, best offseason ever!!

(frank)ing korpisalo and a washed Tarasenko.

Free agents are fine but usually, usually, they're underwhelming.

A team's drafted core and their respective development is by far the most important factor to 'being good'. Also coaching but that's a different topic I'm sure we'll keep slamming the button on.

Now, if only Kevo could find a good free agent.

I left trades out of the discussion, something Kevyn should try some day by using a player

Kevyn missed a lot this off-season, yes he didn't go after anything big in FA, but this past off-season would have actually been the perfect offseason to really put some meat into the bottom 6, even bottom 3. They could have rebuilt there whole bottom of there Roster with the some pieces that were available, and that they just don't have in the Organization.

Loving how UPL is playing but man i dont want to put this season on his and Commies shoulders.

If demote Levi need to trade for a goalie and get rid of commie.

Probably the best thing for him, hear his confidence is wavering. The Sabres did another fabulous job of finding a mentor.

Well unfortunately they won't have Kane to boost Ticket Sales. Guess they will actually just have to try and play good Hockey for more than a game here or a period there.

Who should be Levi's mentor? Hasek?

I mentioned this before and I'm probably in a minority, but I'd still trade a retained Olofsson for a retained Blake Coleman. I think he gives you some real juice in the bottom 6.

demoting and promoting Levi if/when UPL falters is a one hour transaction

Sadly, that's the plan for this next offseason. Girgs, Okposo and Olo will go.

Acquiring the core via FA is a bad idea, FA is where you sign your support players...which both teams failed to do.

bottom 6's are the best use of free agency. Overpay for good ones.
