who picked Davidsson? and will he amount to anything?
- SabresFaninIndiana

bottom 6 guy. Seems like he was a safe pick vs a boom or bust 2nd rounder.

botts

maybe

what about Karabacek

Botts in 2017

2014 draft was elite. It was an absolute poop sandwich on a fresh ciabatta roll. Reinhart and Olofsson, fantastic. Whatever the (frank) happened between the two, (frank) em all.

his magic 8 bal said we would get montour in a trade

The majority of things that people like about this year's team were given to him by Darcy and GMTM. Eichel, Reinhart, Olofsson, the LOG line, Risto and Ullmark. The things people like that he added are Dahlin, Joker, Montour and Skinner

There is more than one uncomfortable parallel between this GM and the last one that people don't want to acknowledge. Trading draft picks, possible miss on a high 1st round pick, big contracts. Like GMTM with Eichel, his best success was being terrible enough to draft Dahlin

No it's trading 3/4 of your prospect pool and thinking nothing is wrong with that

sole existence is to win a championship

Hey, we got Joker for Nylander and the Pens got Hotdogs for Kaps. Seems like both teams won their mulligans.

Yeah, Murray sucked. You'll get no argument from me on that. At some point Botterill's track record needs to stand on its own merits instead of needing to be compared to GMTM to look acceptable. I would argue that time happened over the summer. Some are still fine with pointing to the GMTM boogeyman as the reason we suck
