YouTube tv or Fubo I’d think but they are still like 70-90 a month.

Fubo is the only stream service that has msg.

I'm gonna speak for myself on this one.
I really think all 3 guys are part of the vibes this season.

I wouldn't really do anything. Especially pay for a high end defenseman. Power is gonna be able to cover up mistakes for a regular average dude. Very soon.

I agree with 39, if we could land meier and have a solid handshake resigning him. You need to kick tires.

I also like connor Murphy with salary retained.
Adam's isnt gonna make a huge splash....

- Boss34


Fair enough.
I like the Murphy idea, but I don"t think teams retain on multiple years...normally just the last year. Besides, they can afford to pay Murphy without the reduced Cap hit.

I wouldn't blame Adams if he went either way. Make a splash or stick to his original plan. The team has developed and grown more than anyone could have expected. The Sabres have the Forward prospects coming up that will make this team better over time. But they can also afford to make a splash if they wanted to. Timo would help this team now and for atleast another 5yrs, and say bringing in Murphy would really push the needle. And they could do it, would make it tight in 4yrs but could be done. Really wild dilemma Adams has, actually a pretty good one to have.

Very good post. In 4 years they could buyout Skinner and save a ton.

That was said in context of acquiring another big contract. We kicked this around int he offseason when there was discussion around Debrincat. In another 2 - 3 years the salaries are really going to become an issue. If you have to sign one of the kids and we are out of room the obvious contract to head out the door is Skinner's.
- Slump Buster


I don't believe this is an issue even 4 or 5 years down the road, it it certainly won't be for the next 2-1/2 seasons (2 after this one).
Do the math and assume a $90m Cap in the 24-25 season.

Exactly and Murphy's 4.5m will be gone to that year. But IMO if you are going to make a move or 2 do it now, don't wait.

Ive heard of people doing the Hulu+ bundle and use NordVPN.

The Hulu bundle is 15ish a month and Nord is like 5 a month.

If you have Verizon they pay for your Hulu+ bundle in your cell plan.

If you have capital one you get 50 back on your 2 year purchase of Nord so it comes out to $2 a month.


Not that I would ever do anything like that.

I just heard the super specific details through a friend

I am looking to cut the cord, what is the best and most reliable for live TV and sports?
- hehateme


It really depends on your needs. I left Directv after 23 years last year.... and I ended up at Spectrum with Tivo because it was still cheaper after I priced it all out. If you don't need the Yes Network there are a ton of good options (that was my issue).

I'm good with making those 2 moves as they both fill a glaring need now and in the future.
Put Meier with Cozens and Quinn, push JJP down

I mention this the other day. Adams just checking to see what the price is for Timo


He does this to literally every single good player that is available

Cozens and Timo the 2 bulldozers and Quinn the shooter. I like it. How long have we been asking for a Timo, a power forward that can score and pass and beat up Boston Bruins. What's not to like!!😊😊😇

Well I heard that was the 1st conversation early last week, I heard they talked again early this week. There's definitely interest from the Sabres

How on earth can we come close to saying this right now? We have literally no idea how guys like Quinn/Peterka will perform during that timeframe

And Adams said “no thank you”


I don’t think it’s a terrible deal for the Sabres.

The 2nd. We have a few of those. And a 3rd is not much

The 1st is a deal breaker as of right now.

(All pending a contract extension that isn’t insane)

I think most fans would be ok with giving up a 1st, since they don't trust Adams to make the right pick anyway.

Seems like an easy fit with Okposo and Anderson coming off the books, maybe even Girgs as well.

Potentially 9.7milly . There Meier's money right there + some extra

All Sabres picks are going to become 20+ goal scorers.

Joking aside, Quinn may need some more time in the A. He’s been non-existent lately.

He needs to add a lot of size this off-season.
