Bump. Cause I’m still perplexed as to why an entire marketing department walks out a few weeks before the start of the season...
- Gr8daygo


Reasoning hasn't come out, though it's not C. Brown related. A couple of them quit well before the Brown suspension.

Only thing I can think of is the toxic nature of Pegula enterprises. Since not much in the way can currently be done marketing wise, they probably asked the marketing people to take a pay cut. They weren't willing to do so??

Poor Pegulas, they bought the Bills for $1.4 billion and now it's ONLY be valued at $2.15 billion. I know this .75 billion appreciation isn't liquid but nobody should feel sorry for them.

Homie seems to hate the Pegula's beyond belief, I speculate his source has been handled bandly by them, but he's right. What we expected from them and what they have given are polar opposites. Just hope Beane is extended soon.

We the @TheOfficialHDA have formally requested the @NHL to suspend all playoff games today. We strongly feel this sends a clear message that human rights take priority over sports.

Interesting, I would do:

Kane and Strome

for

Skinner, Middlestadt and 8oa

Don't think CHI would as that Skinner contract last a LONG time

- turbo044



I think Skinner will bounce back in a big way; he always does. That said, my counter would be:

8, Skinner, Mitts

for

Kane, Chi 2020 1st and Strome

Im going to bet that it has everything to do with the current state of society. That they had received marching orders from the top that the team's marketing will be focusing one side of the big issues or the other and weren't comfortable.

I would say yes in a 2nd but we're probably being homers and CHicago would laugh at this??

Would also allow us to dangle Montour/Risto for another forward

exactly...there isn't a team in the league that would take on that Skinner deal. Not one.

Patrick Kane does not want to be a Buffalo Sabres or come back here. Stop that garbage right now

Strome is another Reinhart. Skilled but slow. So why would we want that?


Yikes. Definitely something in the water here today. Atleast we are talking hockey

Please quote the post where anyone said "Pat Kane wants to be a Buffalo Sabre".

Did someone say that or were we all just killing time in a work day talking about what we would give up if he was offered in a trade.

You make it sound like we are 12 year olds hoping for the home town boy that wants to come home

We are all just talking poop, you ass.

Looks like the 1st team offense primarily played vs the 2nd team D, so Josh's stats should be good, and they were
- turbo044


My issue with Josh is his accuracy and consistency. 1st or 2nd team def, I just like seeing him with a better completion percentage. With our receiving core, he should get open guys regardless of the defense we face.

Your point is valid, just like to see it.

I think it would be fun to do a "build your own burger" type of blog for trade proposals.

It would be poll style where we would list like 4-5 trade targets, and all vote on the package it would take to acquire.

For example

Sean Monahan

Main piece
A. 8th overall
B. Cozens
C. 2021 First
D. Montour

Secondary Piece

A. Montour
B. 2020 2nd
C. Mattias Samuelsson
D. Casey Mittelstadt
E. None

We could poll the results and based on common answers come up with the most voted on package

- sbroads24


Good Idea...but out like 5 delas together in one, so each responder makes coordinated deals rather than independent ones

My god, was that horrible or what? I listened for about 3 minutes on my way in to work today. All I wanted was to hear some Bills football talk. Nope. NFL Radio it was for the rest of the commute. He's murdering that show. Totally unlistenable when Howard is on vacation.

The pegulas are nice people?? Have you paid any attention to anything lately? Lol

Fired botts / 20 employees. Didn’t replace them

Fired Adams a gm puppet with no gm experience.

Hired a very cheap AHL coach

Bills marketing team quit

Chris brown fired or suspended

Harbor center boards are a mess / facility sucks. 716 food is gross

Sabres need to be economically viable

The pegulas told employees about the family wanting to maintain the pegula lifestyle

All bills and Sabres alumni. Cut them off

Ralph and Chris Taylor hadn’t talked since October. - clear communication issue

Kim is a clueless president for everything they own

The arena is in shambles and completely out of date

Didn’t want to pay ROR bonus and made us take a garage trade with the blues

Anyone else. I’m sure I’m missing something
