Peter Fish said their expectation is Eichel to be traded in the near future?

You take that deal all day long, Billy G won’t part with Rossi and they want Rossi.

Then Billy G doesn’t want Eichel.

It’s pretty simple, if you’re calling about Eichel and you have untouchables? Expect dial tones.

i think both guerin and drury really want eichel as he's the type of player they're both enamored with...

is that what you're hearing?
- Michael Pachla

Today I heard that Adams is saying al the right things and knows 100% Eichel can't be on this team next year. They don't want any distractions, some of the players aren't happy Reinhart is gone.

i thought that dahlin put on something close to 15 lbs. last off season...could be wrong
- Michael Pachla


I was hoping for a breakthrough last season with dahlin. Guys rated that high universally, have another level. He could play close to 30 minutes a game next year.

Sounds like he's comfortable with donnie.

It's very simple isn't it, Adams isn't stupid. Like I mentioned the Flyers and Risto before he got moved there. Adams figured out what the Fkyers were trying to do, that's why he backed out at first. He was going to the Flyers like I mentioned earlier in the day I think it was but, it was going to be on Adams terms.

Could you imagine if the Sabres dump Risto, Sam and Jack and miraculously make the playoffs, just like the Bills did when they dumped Darby and Watkins right before the season when they made the playoffs thanks to the Bengals. Everybody said they were tanking for a QB.

Maybe get tyrod Taylor to play goaltender?

i think much of the fan base would rather have skunk in buffalo, but that ship has sailed...played his best hockey in the latter half of a contract year (or, in the case of this past year, leading into his final rfa season)

Good. Wait for Rossi. Wait for lafrienre. Wait for byfield. Don’t just trade Eichel just to trade him

Why did they trade him if he was willing to re sign?

As much as I’ve heard Reinhart is very much a duechebag, he’s the one of the 3 that had they not nickeled and dimed him the last two contacts…… he’d have stayed.

Yea and no


He was willing to sign prior to him being put on prove me deals.

He’s at a point to where he’s a year away (at 27yrs old) to play where he wants to.


As much as he’s a dueche, I don’t blame him.

Yes absolutely.

I'd rather have Suzuki currently, just wonder about a couple years from now, when we are actually good.

Fit the time line... although both guys do

Kotkanieme has had 11 goals and 17 assists for 28 total points in 92 combined games the past 2 seasons.

He needs a major turnaround.

It’s not exactly that, but that doesn’t kick in until next season anyways

See below. It would mean the Sabres could in theory win the draft lottery 3 years in a row (21, 22, 23).

Two more rule changes that will be in place for the 2022 draft lottery are: 1) A team cannot jump more than 10 spots in the lottery. So the top bottom 11 teams have a shot at first and the bottom 12 have shot at second. 2) Teams cannot win the lottery more than twice in a 5 year span.

He also got wind of the genius Krueger plan to extend Hall and trade Sam after last season, if Ralph was still around.
