You're bad and your takes suck

Great job explaining on why a guy who took Nylander and passed on Sergachev and took Reinhart instead of Draisaitl deserves any credit. Think how much different our team would look.

No people have been saying acquire actual talent. a top 6 forward that can score goals.

You know the opposite of Frolik

need to trade 2 or 3 players for an impact player

move 2 guys and a pick for RNH

move 2 guys and a prospect for mantha


this team needs difference makers, not semi warm bodies

I'd move mccabe for a 2nd and a 4th


same for miller

It looks like we might miss out on the D men sale frenzy which is both hilarious and sad

the average NHL tenure for a GM is 4 years

Um what? They were under teh cap with him on the team and moving a portion of his salary would have made them over the cap, im confused?
- ImThatGuy

It all had to due with LTIR and not wanting to use it

Again this is Botts doing for sure

But not retaining salary allowed the Frolik trade (yes this move sucked)

Retaining salary would have limited flexibility

This happened prior to the Bogo release/waiving which should have been their first move

Stop with the leon BS, Sam was ranked higher by every scout. Hindsight is a hell of a thing.
- hehateme

Not every scout, and I've never been a Leon should have been the guy and blah blah blah. But if we're going to point out everything that Botts does that sucks, TM has to own that one.

Frolik has been a 15+ goal scorer in 5 of the last 6 years... he's exactly what a depth 6-9 F is defined as.

Sit your pessimistic a$$ out of this one.

Momma say Botts Anngry cause he has all those d men and no trade partner

also Frolik is the Devil

- hubie

He's got no response to the actual argument. I'm not worried about it and maybe one day he'll actually put some thought into posts instead of "putz" and "services will be missed" by guys who are at least arguably worse then what we have now.

WHY DID THEY NEED FROLIK?
Why was Botts after him for Months?
No one has answered that?

I still have had this gut feeling about getting AA from Detroit as I think he would be a gorgeous 2C in Buffalo.... but then I saw how bad of a year he is having there.

Anyone have more insight as to why?? Is it just how bad Detroit is?

Do you think JB is an average GM?

my man!!
- hehateme

what two guys do we have to make it worth it? R u sending Sam and Vo?

Sure he has 5 this year and was a healthy scratch because his game had fallen off of a cliff.

He couldn't keep up anymore.

Target fixation.

It was a decent idea in August. A dumb idea in January.

He got locked on and couldn't look away

Yep.

Move along.
