Not at all. I think there's simply a respect factor for some.

Partially. I think it has more to do with calling it a “fluke” or “lucky” that they’re in the ECF again makes someone come off like a moron. Nobody is saying they’re a dynasty that’s just someone throwing some hyperbole exaggeration up to cover the stupid, incorrect, point but you and I both know that. That’s his schtick.

Eichel trade talks heating up.

Might be traded before playoffs are over.

Zegras + 3OA + Mid level prospect is a deal I don’t say no to

I was hoping for an Islanders blog about their levels of luck, skill, analytics, coaching and use of emoticons.

The people demand answers.

I get it. Must win for the Isles tomorrow night, imo. Even if they have to play a Tampa team with two extra skaters on the ice

Isn't it a bit early for a 2020 draft grade?

2 - Seattle
3 - Anaheim
4 - New Jersey
5 - Columbus
6 - Detroit
7 - San Jose
8 - LA Kings
9 - Vancouver

Spector says Francis has called regarding Jack.

What CAN Seattle offer besides the #2? That they promise to take Skinner, provided he waives?

Interesting, starting to hear, "the Sabres and Eichel are working towards a rehab plan" which goes against a lot of these "Eichel is a goner" takes.

Perhaps my boy and Risto are the only goners this offseason. Wouldn't that be something.

Nothing from any of these leaked scenarios make the organization look strong, while GMKA goes on interviews and reminds us he is still learning.

Botterill had to deal Ror and he was at least experienced in management.

Adams has to move: Eichel, Skunk, Risto and Miller in one offseason after a pandemic along with an expansion draft...This really is the entertainment of the Sabres organization, the product on the ice doesn't come close to the situations upper management finds themselves in consistently.
