Good read Hank,wish the kings blogger would write with a bit of passion for the team.generic weekly updates,no passion or disgruntled views of the franchise,and where we are headed or what's currently going on.good on you for bringing that to the sabres blogs.
I would like to see the kings jump on one of those goalies with one of our first couple of picks. - Dewey8
Thanks for reading.
What do you think of Cal Peterson? He's the one who got away for us Sabres fans. Damn college loophole. |

I like Cal,he puts up decent numbers on our club with mediocre defense in front of him.i think he can help keep us competitive and out of the basement while this rebuild transition is going on.im not totally sold yet as to whether or not he can handle the full load of a season but as a 20-30 game backup he looks steady and capable. |

Hahaha the Oilers ! OMG I fell asleep with them leading 4-2 in the 3rd and just checked out the highlights. I had no idea they lost until watching the recap just now ! Oh man that's hilarious. Love it. |

I think Botts had a vision, he knew he had to rebuild the pipeline. He just went heavy D a lot and the trades he made to fill spots because there wasn't any prospects to fill them didn't work out. I often wonder what this team would have looked like if Botts would have been here before Murray, if they switched time frames. But can't go back. Need Adams and Karmanos to hit it right know. - Buff36
What was Botterill's vision?
I ask because it was never obvious or even apparent. |

the most Buffalo Sabres thing to ever happen would be the Oilers getting curbstomped by the Jets and Connor McDavid finally demanding a trade, thus killing the market for Jack Eichel |

His vision was good for ahl but he was not ready to be an actual GM in the NHL, just like in his playing days.

Think to try and build a team for the long haul, trying to build a strong foundation throughout the organization. Did he make mistakes and hold some cards to long sure. But don't know how much the Pegula's had a hand in stopping some of the stuff he did or wanted to do. Was he perfect NO, but it's starting to look like he and the people he brought in had a eye for talent drafting wise. |

Ah, so were blaming the Oilers best player.
Much like we do in Buffalo about blaming Eichel about this teams failures.
Got it.
Also if the Sabres are giving up half of their roster, other teams are going to have to give up their entire roster.

You heard it hear first, a PPG playoff player doesn't show up in the playoffs.
Sucks in playoffs, yet Sabres are going to have to give up Eichel, Cozens, Mitts, Quinn, picks, goalies, Etc.
Typical confusing response. |
