Nelson is just getting started, I’d do it
- washedup20



That's where I get off the train.

I like what Nelson is developing into. He's a UFA though. Pretty sure he's signing back here from what it sounds like but that's still a chance I'm not ready to take. Risto is a minute cruncher, it's that simple. Sure he makes some mistakes, but let's not pencil Nelson in as able to do what Risto does.

Those are two different roles.

Hot take but Id make a play for De Haan before Carlson in free agency.


Better chance of landing him

Probably cost less

Better defensively.

Bumping this because it's gotta be more interesting than the oilers-sabres pissing contest

What you looooose in Risto you gain in two young elite nhl ready players, controlled on entry level deals.

Then make a push for a John Carlson

Guhle, Nelson, Scandella, possibly Dahlin.

Entertaining thought for sure

Meh.
We are all a little touchy with the BS the Sabres continue to roll out...some more than others, others think it’s all great and are planning the parade down Delaware Ave.
We pick on each other constantly, so when some outsider comes in making jokes ... eh, I have to agree..F’em is my reaction as well.

I personally didn’t see it so bad either...but, this is our board, so if you don’t like it, don’t stop by...pretty easy, right?

Fair retort

But yeah, just to be clear without really trying to stoke it any further, It kinda only has your teams logo on it. It’s a public board. Not yours. Any fan of any team can post here.

But while buddies reaction was laughably childish, and it’s clear he needs to get a grip on reality, I don’t think there was any intention to upset anyone. And maybe oilers fan shoulda been more aware that their are irrational fans out there that take it all too seriously.

Which guys?

That’s the opposite of lack of self awareness actually. It’s embracing reality and being totally aware of the current situation. It’s a fact.

Besides, why would I be concerned about your feelings? Your childish tantrums and tirades lost any good will to worry about “how it might make you feel”

It’s just hockey. Grow up

Stick around, speaking for me only, but having witnessed many others here, we do tend to explode occasionally.
Yes it is a public board and any are welcome...I do think you laid it out nicely...anyone can comment, but the way the comment is made also drives a response..
Don’t take our crap personally.
We have issues...me first...and Im now drinking brown liquor, so poop is bound to happen, lol!

Are you surprised that a Sabres fan can't empathize with a franchise that has had 6 1st overall picks in 10 years, when we haven't had one in 30?

You lack any sense of the audience to which you speak.

lol

While I’ll grant Having Connor is always gonna breed some semblance of hope (Eichel should do the same to abit of a lesser degree. But still a bonafide superstar)

I’m not sure what’s worse.

Still building towards that goal and failing thus far
Or
Knowing you had that goal in reach and your new gm gutting the organization and setting you back a couple years


It’s an awful situation all around for everyone.
Admittedly, I hope the sabres turn it around as being from western Canada, I loathe every canadian team in your division

I never asked anyone to empathize with me or the oilers. I never would.

I’m over this discussion.

Also, give us some credit!
it’s 4 first overalls. Not 6😉.
