exactly ….. the average fan will cry for Quebec and not understand why bettman wants Phoenix to workout so badly.

The public voted and said no. This is now the 2nd time the area said No Thank You.
Austin Matthews is actually the perfect example of a coyotes fan growing up and learning hockey.

They also just brought college hockey to the area.

So leaving now would be a bad idea

Keller

If the Sabres don’t add Crouse to that it’s a big miss.

It's an entire shift of philosophy. Terry wanted to bullrush back to the playoffs immediately after they tanked for Eichel. Darcy had been there for way too long and it looked like he was just going to start doing what Kevyn is doing/did. Sell off the good vets, pick a ton of players and let it all slowly develop.

I think they're about as terrible with or without GMTM. Maybe we get Eichel, or McDavid, or Strome, or Marner. I don't think Darcy is trading for ROR or Lehner. I think Darcy builds his team out with his drafted guys like Risto and Compher and maybe Zadorov and Foligno and builds his base on them.

I imagine Darcy's path is similar to Adams'.

Darcy's mid and late drafting was overall pretty poor. I'd have hoped Terry would force him to poopcan his staff but who knows. It took all the way till Botts was fired in order to do so. I mean 2010 and 2011, who had a worse two drafts than that? Christ

Darcy could’ve Beaned T-Pegs and who knows. Years of mistakes really is astounding.

Darcy valued grit….until 08’

I always thought the Scouts logo was really cool. Nowadays people would find it objectionable. Never knew the likeness was the same as that of a statue in downtown KC.

or it’ll be the new Houston Aeros

- Ratsreign


Houston apparently has someone interested in owning his own team so I think that may be out (portland as well). I also get the sense that maintaining east/west balance will be important.

KC would be a really solid choice. My wildcard spots would be Salt Lake City (34th largest US TV market) Oklahoma City (41st) and Albuquerque (48th)

Flyers team strategy is going to give equality to all parties in decision making. Which is Keith Jones, Danny B and Johnny Torts.

Sabres *consider and incorporate* all sources but Adams makes the final call. Which is usually what entails the title of GM.

This oughta be fantastic to watch.

- TheSabresTaco


Have you watched any of the beyond blue and gold videos? Adams always gets a general consist from everyone before pulling the trigger

The savoie pick comes to mind and a couple others.

Yeah but I think they want that for the $500m expansion fee when they go to 34 teams. The rockets owner supposedly wants a team

The free agent class of 2016 has finally expired. What a (frank)ing list. Except for Seabrook.

Lucic
Okposo
Backes
Ladd
Seabrook
Yandle
Kesler
Eriksson
Voracek
Erik Johnson
Nielsen
DeKeyser

Some real whoppers.

Apparently DN was blindsided by the award.

Fear they will lose the Sabres contract as well.

34 teams sounds so crazy. You might be right.

If the NFL was smart they’d go to 36-40 teams.

From what you guys say about the arena fare, they should be gone.

Welcome Brad, thanks for such an excellent write up.

The mayday goal was top 5 alltime buffalo sports feeling.
Maybe #1, although pounding the raiders 51-3 In the afc championship was unrelenting.

Interesting that reinhart went for it every shift and eichel was floater?

Think you have that backwards....

Wonder which city has an arena ready to go. I thought kc did because they tried pulling the Pens away back before the paint can went up. Albuquerque would be interesting. Not all that far from AZ.
