We should get back to the topic at hand:

How awesome Jack Quinn is. Did anyone else see that toe drag goal last night? Masterful. This kid is going to (frank) about and score 30 next year.

- QuinnFan


Honestly I’m very happy with him. I thought after 2 huge injuries this offseason. He showed a lot for not being 100% back and in perfect hockey shape.

If he's interested in the Sabres, go and get the good player and figure things out after.

All top quality teams do the above.

Why can't the Sabres?

For me it's a combination of Age, Term and Money . If he was say 27, I'd be ok with 5 years.

Do I expect them to do any of the following? Absolutely not.

Go and get actual quality players, even if it means a longer term and/or higher AAV.

Get rid of the overpaid fringe types as needed, and that includes players like Samuelsson.

And as the Cap goes up, it might not be as hard to dump players in 4 or 5 years. If we want a quality player with the qualities we want we might need to give that extra. I don't think it hurts as much if it's quality and not a Eric Johnson Kyle Okposo Zemgus Girgensons type.

I'd rather spend the money elsewhere, the top 6 upgrade with leadership and truculence qualities.

So you're predicting a goal per game season for him?

The projection is for slightly under $6M per, but I upped it due to Buffalo.

Overall, if we continue to worry about cap hits and being a bargain franchise, we'll continue to see a cycle of mediocrity as we've seen the past 2 to 3 seasons.

Yeah, have to. And fair point.

Like clockwork. (frank) that team, I truly hope they go on a 30 year playoff drought and the franchise folds.

I'm curious what the Sabres did 30 years ago to prompt you back then to swear them off, lol. They have 17 more years to go... Adams can do it.. almost half way there!

I wish it were so simple, I would unjinx us somehow.

I'm really just done with the cap circumvention stuff. If it were up to me I'd make Vegas forfeit the playoffs right now and strip them of all their draft picks for quite some time. That and some substantial fines, totaling a couple hundred million, would certainly curb the enthusiasm of others to repeat this.

INSTEAD they'll let this go and in a season or two, the TDL will be 3-4 teams acquiring half a roster of players while the rest of the league preps for next season. It'll turn into baseball before the cap era and utterly destroy the sport. It's that serious.

11 Embassies evacuated under Joe Biden and Americans left behind.
0 Embassies evacuated under Donald Trump.

Iran might strike Israel this weekend.

Make sure when you vote for Biden you sign up to go fight his wars.

Don't think politicalbuzz will matter if the Sh!t hits the fan in the Middle East. Cause something is gonna happen here if it does. So start worrying about you and your Family, and really not trying to be a Jerk about it.
