I’m thinking Eichel demands a trade soon. Get the best player you can.

JG would be a comparable offensive player. 26-27 is still 4-5 years of elite offense

great.

he's only signed for 2.

And the 6 years before him? Or are you legitimately pretending the Sabres 9 year playoff drought is because they didn’t get a 2c those 2 off seasons?

If fixing the Sabres meant killing a dragon we managed to cut off three of his toes. The dragon is still alive and wel

The 6 years before him are a different era altogether. The present failure is based on Botterill's incompetence because he couldn't get 1 more point in the standings

Also, the bolded sounds like the start of the 3-eyed moron's erotic fanfic starring the disabled boy

Isn't this on Ralph as much as it is on Botts?

Why play a goalie with a bad eye?

This organization is a joke and will continue to be a joke for the foreseeable future.

What I’m wonder is did he have bad vision coming from St. Louis and did St. Louis know and not disclose it.

That's the most painful thing about all this, that they don't see this as their fault.

It's plain arrogance.

do you think the sabre skaters got false hope, scoring goals on a one eye goalie in practice?
- homiedclown

I’ve got news for you. They couldn’t score on him or anyone else in practice. Maybe the whole team should be sent for eye tests.

There are a lot of misogynists Sabres fans on this blog who have a problem with a woman Sabres president some are racist as well. Interesting, small-minded wieners.
- GilPerreault11

Stfu nothing racist at all. They keep hiring the wrong people, housley and his high school coach, 2 gems without any cup or playoff experience. This sux I can do a better job.

I’m thinking Johnny Hockey if the rumors are true.

Something like that

So he stays for 2 years and signs with flyers

Not a bad thought, signed for 3 more years at 6.3, hopefully that's not out of the price range.

The only saving grace that might come from this is that the "Ralph for President" brigade gets closer to its wish and he has more control over the roster top to bottom. I don't have confidence, but if this is truly Adams' show, or the Pegulas' show, this team is screwed.
- buffalofan19



Coach McDermott 1 year then gm Beane hired 🤔

Coach Krueger 1 year then gm Adam's hired

Maybe the pegulas have a formula?

He bleeds chances against. Like Calgary fans don’t even like the guy and they don’t have much behind him.

I can’t believe the guy fired the amateur scouting staff ahead of having another top 10 selection

I'm pumped about Adams. The fact that the morons on here that have been slobbing Botts knob for the past 3 years are so upset is icing on the cake.

considering they misfired on a few its not too surprising. Quite a ways away from draft day too
