Wow this is garbage. I hate player comparables. If Power and that other guy are both Hedman then why is one ranked over the other? Dumb. And it's oh look all of these guys are amazing, no busts here.
- Punch70



All they're saying is they have a game that looks like said player. Or they play like said player. Not that they are the reincarnation of them.

Jeez you guys take everything so seriously.

Not sure why personal attacks. This team clearly has no plan. Its shows. No confidence is Adams and Co. Hes had a year for ONE good move. Still nothing….

The rumor is the Rangers would send Strome and the 15th overall to the Senators for the Senators 10th overall.

Would you rather have the 10th overall or Strome and the 15th overall?

More points then Reinhart over the last two years…

Go ahead, finish the sentence

... Because of Panarin.

He’s going to get paid because he benefitted greatly from the second best winger to patty Kane in the game. Before Panarin he was a mid 30s Point center

EK just said Buffalo isn't getting any traction in a Eichel deal. Either has to drop his price or Eichel needs a clean bill of health.

If we choose Power over top Forward would that be best for a franchise that best forwards In the system is Quinn and Peterka?

Cant wait to see what Adams and Analytics guru (Kim) decide

We might get a good forward prospect with our 2nd round pick. Someone like L’Heureux or Bourgault could fall to us there.

We've been over this.

And if you rally want to know. He didn't have any power till he was able to fire Kruger.

It's been said Kruger held all the power. Kruger wasn't suppose to stay as head coach for very long the idea was to move him to the offices upstairs. Then this year happened and everything was flipped on its head.

Adams was finally given power to fire Kruger did so. Named Meatballs coach and hired some very respectable people around him.

NOW they can actually make a plan and go through with it.




Heres the short version

If you want to have a good laugh. People actually get paid by Central Scouting to scout these guys all year and produce crap like this.

I understand the definition. I just find it funny that Edvidsson gets a HOFer and Wallstedt gets an .897 goalie

Also I don't live in the south

Oh Eklund:


Kraken Willing to Part with #2 pick For Eichel. Also, Next Year's #1 +?
I am hearing Seattle has had discussions with Buffalo about Eichel. They are willing to give the #2 pick to get this done. Not enough though. The Question is what else do the Kraken have? If Seattle were to offer up THIS year's first-round pick and NEXT year's first-round pick, along with Goalie Vitek Vanecek for Eichel, should the Sabres take the deal? Should Seattle make that offer?

Its ok bra. Other people have different opinions than yours. Ill be a Sabres fan till death. Does not mean Im ok with being a worst team in NHL history and clearly still making bad decisions.

I hope Im wrong about Adams but Im seeing some synergy with him

I have no issues with his personal stance

But when you make your stance public, you better be open to all the crap you get for it.

He is replying to Hughes now, I swear at this point it's all a show

One of the beat reporters says Islanders could be that surprise team.

I would believe it, they seem to be very active and you hear their name in a lot of rumors out there
