This can’t be said enough.

He got poop for a playoff MVP.

Anyone who still thinks it’s a good trade is just in denial.

Botterill better be good this year because he has lost my faith in him.
- ImThatGuy

He wasn't a playoff MVP when he was traded. Just sayin'.

fire everyone

If jbotts wanted to keep ek9. That's a huge strike against him. Worse then trading ror.

Ek9 proved his worth. Now they are stuck
- Boss34

EK9 was a pop person off the ice.
Eichel and Sam were apparently friends with him.

I wouldn't mind his 30 G's since the Sabres were about 40-50 short of the 6, 7, 8 seed in the East.
Win by scoring Goals, right?

twice

move the team to madagascar

You can think that but there’s more to the story but I’m sure it will come out soon

Just like the Kyle info you all threw acid at me

That’s all I’m going to say

Damn it!
I knew it all along.he looked at Kim's ass didn't he.
Jez, what are these guys thinking.

They picked josh Allen so they might be the right people 👀

And they also wanted Patrick Mahomes

So you’re saying Botterill is not intelligent?

I mean you’ve never tried it so you can’t say it’s bad

I've never tried suicide but I know it is bad...

Girgs, Scandella and 2019 3rd for Miles Woods and Sami Vatanen.

Gerbe text Kim and make it happen.

I heard Miles Wood's name mentioned the other day, that he could be a guy added as part of a bigger deal. I like his play.

Rented an apartment on the beach in Cabarete last year for $70/night. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. No interest in resorts.

mine was a work conference...so I brough the wife. It was nice but after all this other crap, I have no interest in going back.

This is fun to look back on

I think we all know the answer to that

So, where do I sign up to try to push you in to a volcano to see if I like it?

I trust Homie and his info than anything you say

I also have info from someone who knows him pretty well that he realized he needed to move on and asked to be moved
- Stripes77

I also have a buddy with similar info who knows ROR personally and it’s 1000% true he wanted to move on.

It wasn’t a demand, but it was requested

Same thing I heard

From what I was told the year end meetings between ROR and Botts they laid it all on the table and ROR said something along the lines of maybe it would be better if I was moved.

To clarify it wasn't like Hasek where he demanded out but he did ask to be moved

Plus his comments about wanting to stay, and his lost love for the game, happened before his exit meeting.

Maybe when all the cards were on the table about the future, ROR saw that he isn't going to be the #1 guy, that he needs to be better, and that Housley would still be the coach.

I have no source. I just read into things too deeply.

I've said it before, unless someone from management comes out and tells us ROR wanted out, or he say's it himself, I don't believe anyone in here with all the "he wanted out" crap.

Horrible idea to trade him and an even worse return.

Let's just say Botts himself comes out and says "Yes, Ryan demanded a trade". IF that's true, then Botts made a really, really awful trade. He got schooled.

However, he did win the Skinner trade, I'll give him that, but again, the return for ROR was inexcusable.

You win some, you lose some

So you’re saying Botterill is not intelligent?

He avoids the CHL so I do question his mind

We did not have to have inside information to know ROR wanted out last year. All you had to do is Listen to his Locker clean out comments. I lost my love of the game, losing culture etc... All but said please trade me....

Edit: I still agree with the trade, dude wanted out. Problem is we did not replace him accurately that is where Jbotts failed. Old news now
