Between Cozens, Mitts, Peterka, Quinn, Rosen, Poltapov, Kisakov, Huglen, and whatever we get in the Eichel deal we should be ok.

Already have guys like Asplund, Ruotsalinen, and Thompson that can continue to play in the bottom 6 till the aforementioned are ready.

Keep that pile, maybe trade some for other pieces, acquire your Drurys and Numminens in a few years. Profit.

We know Adams reads these hockeybuzz posts and also I print them out and put them under his wipers so we're basically the group AGM.

Armia, Compher, and Zadorov never lit the world on fire but I will always die on the hill that says we should have kept them and went for Auston Matthews instead of trading picks and prospects to try and “win now”

So a guy strikes out and he shouldn't go to bat again because he struck out the first time?

Because planning to lose isn't how you breed winners, if the last 10 years of Sabres hockey doesn't spell that out for you.

It times perfectly with Skinner. Just tank for those 6 years and then you're set.

Rumors have had them sniffing around since last offseason. There should be some sort of framework, some players in the deal agreed upon by now.

Edit: But if they consummate the deal they pay more than a West team because they are in the East

I hope they lose so bad nobody goes to the games, make no money, and sell the team. I'm over sports

Honestly I believe the problem with the Rasmus dahlin is his Defence partner Henri jokiharju. It's basically a lesser talented version of himself. Both guys are trying to crash in 2 help us offensively which creates no one is back for the inevitable mistake. 2 21 year old shouldn't be playing first line minutes when they play the exact same game. I think Miller would be a better partner and Henry can play with butcher. I will say I'm impressed the Sabres actually did something I like by keeping Dustin tokarski and waving Dell. I'm not the biggest fan of any of our top three veteran guys but Dustin clearly played his ass off in the preseason and deserved to stay with the big Club. Although I like the spirit of picking a guy off of waivers I believe left-wing was the last position that we actually needed. I've been hoping for a center a goalie or a right shot defenseman. Not sure how it's going to play out but it was almost as if they were announcing Jay Jay would be going to Rochester since they would have to waive the new guy axle themselves to send him to Rochester. It's a shame axle was unable to play last night where they could have properly evaluated him with the big team so I guess we're going to have to go by one single game on Saturday performance.

The Sabres will make the Eichel deal soon and the player/s they bring in will help sell tickets they are worried about right now.

Yup, their main focus (the higher ups) is ticket sales at the moment.

Yeah, I'm wondering if that all-prospect thing might be tweaked to be a strong prospect but one big name, and a first or something.

Bulldog said yesterday that both he and his buddy waited a month to get a response about season tickets after filling out the paperwork. Nobody seems to know wtf is going on over there

One player wont draw tickets for more than a few games.

They should know they've shot themselves in the foot with all this BS
