I could also get a fluffer from Margot Robbie.

The odds of that happening though ? Impossible.

Bertuzzi had his eyes on Toronto from the very beginning.

Bertuzzi signed a 1 year contract. What Swedish dress wearer posts is clueless.

Bertuzzi wasn’t coming here if the Sabres gave him $80M on a one year deal.

Hence my sarcastic remark $hit for brains

I wouldn't be surprised if those requests don't start coming Adams way after new years, what would you sell off at the deadline? Who would you wait to trade in the offseason?

Has the 2 new signies asked. Clifton looks like he joined the Nickers Club for Perimeter Pussies.

You don't know it.

You literally know nothing about hockey.

You constantly spew nonsense

You think you are bringing in Hathaway to score goals.

Lance is limiting himself to only the past 2 seasons with free agents, Adams has never signed a successful FA:

The problems began in each of the past two summers. The Sabres haven't received enough production or consistent play from their free-agent signings.

Eric Comrie has an .881 save percentage in 26 appearances since signing a two-year contract with the Sabres in 2022. Defenseman Ilya Lyubushkin was traded to Anaheim in August after only one season in Buffalo. Neither of the Sabres defense signings in 2023, Connor Clifton and Erik Johnson, have filled the team's need for someone who can be relied on to skate next to Rasmus Dahlin or Owen Power on one of the top two pairings.

Granato lauded the Sabres' director of pro scouting, Jeremiah Crowe, recently for identifying Robinson as a competitive, checking-line winger, but the team isn't surrounding Crowe with a robust staff to help him identify talent.

The Sabres recently hired longtime NCAA assistant coach Brad Dexter as a pro scout, though he hasn't been involved in pro hockey in 22 years. Otherwise, Adams relies on Crowe, Granato, Amerks coach Seth Appert, associate general manager Jason Karmanos and the analytics staff to scout possible free-agent, trade and waiver acquisitions.

The Sabres have built an effective amateur scouting staff, but they're relying on only a few sets of eyes to improve the margins of a roster that's filled with young players whom Adams identified as franchise pillars.

Jost's departure is more evidence that Adams' plan to bring back the same roster didn't work. The forward depth chart hasn't been healthy. A few players who received lucrative long-term contracts are struggling to perform up to expectations. Others are enduring sophomore slumps because a player's development curve in pro hockey is never linear.

Victor Olofsson, who, like Jost, was a healthy scratch late last season, has only four goals and 12 points in 30 games while skating primarily on the fourth line. He wasn't going to be on the power play Wednesday against Boston until the Sabres learned that Thompson would be unavailable. The Sabres aren't getting a return on their investment for the $4.75 million that Olofsson counts against the salary cap and it won't be possible to trade the winger before the deadline if it continues.

Agreed

I’m more disappointed in the “stars”

Tage, cozens, power

These core guys are just average so far…..

Power looks completely lost

- Boss34

Power should be kissing Jake Sanderson's ass every day for the contract he got.

Agreed and the product on the ice reveals how pathetic that is.

I would be a pro scout, how do you become one?

I spew nonsense, but you believe a 4 point winger who averages 10 minutes a night and is a -7 on the year helps this team ?

Unless he was brought in to knock every member of the coaching staff out and sit in the press box he’s even worse then Okposo who everyone hates

I agree with all of that but there are so many obvious issues that were not addressed by the GM.

We have no one to take faceoffs, we have maybe 2 top-4 d men, our goalie (in a must-win game) is 22 and has spent no time in the minors.

This roster is a joke. I get firing Granato to get a bump but the smirking GM deserves the boot just as much. It's a joke if the coach takes this alone.

You literally think Hathaway is going to be brought in to score goals? Thats why you quoted points.



You think Jost is a better signing that Hathaway

Hathaway is a 4th line player. Holy sheet do you not know how assembling lines work???

They really need to add an ignore button. You and your dresses is getting boring.

Okposos told the media the team plays for Granato.

How’s that going?

More than his face, it's the fact that I can hear him smiling when he's talking. That's seriously weird behavior, especially when your team sucks. Why is he always smiling when he talks?
