Matthew Barnaby, director of Mother’s Day celebrations and driving with three wheels.

He didn’t phrase it that way. He said something to the effect of “I’ve heard all the chatter too, but when I talked to my Buffalo people as recently as yesterday, they say it will be status quo.” He didn’t clarify how broad that status quo was (I by that, I mostly mean Karmanos) but the implication to me was “no special advisor”.

I would have went with POPO, President of Purse Operations

Sabres Tooth really needs some help. Not sure who we could bring in to help him out. Oh yeah, KA that's the ticket. Well actually not sure he's qualified for that position either.

Dreger rarely has actual info correct on the Sabres and often is just speculating

Nope. Put the Dudley headband back on the hockey bag.

At least some people are bringing it this off-season.

I disagree. Can you say for certain that hot Rod didn’t sneak into our locker room with a liquid culture of staphylococcus that found its way into our shot blocking machine veteran go to defenseman’s boot and shin pads prior to game 7?

How can anyone have any hope when you realize Terry and his band of clueless morons see Seth Appert as some hockey genius head coach in waiting? There is absolutely nothing in that man's resume that suggests he is any good at his job.

I see where we're passing each other, not that I necessarily disagree. I think he can get 7 - 7.5 now, even possibly from the Sabres. I thought we were talking about a path for him to get north of 9 mil. I think that's a serious challenge and I don't believe he's getting 72/8 like Chychrun. Not in this contract. Maybe he signs a 3 year deal, performs on a team as you suggest and his next, 27 year old contract is high end.

Pounded in the cornhole is the essence of being a fan of Buffalo sports. You grow up having acquired the taste without even realizing it. There is no not liking it anymore. Like warm deli meat on a over salty bun with those nasty seeds in rye bread.

This is a lucid, intelligent, and well thought out commentary. Loved the "time and pressure in Shawshankian tradition" part. Terry has to get the point of realizing that you have to compete for the cup to win the cup. Perennially watching the playoffs must end. Adams talks about a plan for sustained excellence when he can't deliver occasional periodic excellence. Maybe is time for an adjustment to the plan, or an adjustment to the people responsible (and accountable) for the plan? Instead we keep moving players out and watch them have great success in other places.

And a competent GM And a owner that invests in his team

Deffo NOT Edm Not after their D!ckhead coach came up with that snide throw O' shade at the Bills EFF Edmonton Id actually rather see Tor, Car, over them (which causes me to spit up bile) I guess of the 4, Winnipeg is the only one whom I'm neutral about. Matter of fact, b/c of bag o' d!cks Edm HC, I hope they go to, and LOSE, 4 SC finals IN A ROW!!!

No one seems to be stating whether the injuries are related. Lower body could also be related to the back. I'm just risk-averse with the injury history for a team that employs Norris, Greenway, and Samuelsson, and doesn't use LTIR or spend to the cap.

How many times are you willing to get pounded in the cornhole until you decide you don’t like it anymore?

So no Senior Advisor hire then?

I wonder how different the two actually are. Paging @Brawndo, @Brawndo you have a call on the white courtesy phone.

Me either. I think he'll extend in Vegas as one of the guys going after a Cup rather than try to go home and have to be the savior (granted, with Pasta) on a rebuild on the fly. I'm just saying I can envision a path where Boston could flip it around fast, as the Kings and ... even the Habs...??? have.

I'm unsure what his current injury is. I think it's separate from his stress fracture. The thing is, a healthy McQueen might have been in the running for 1st overall. You'd have to really dig into those medicals because 6'5" centers with his package of skills are rare.

If the Sabres were a good playoff team that held the 9th overall by trade/happenstance, yup, go for it. But they are not. He had the back fracture injury, then returned this season only to have a separate lower-body injury which he suffered an additional setback. Norris is already going to miss at least 20 games per season; the Sabres can't afford to have this pick turn into only a "what if". https://rg.org/news/hockey/how-roger-mcqueen-could-be-a-steal-at-the-2025-nhl-draft Personally, I skip him in the first round.

NJ has extra RHDs

Darren Dreger was on Sabres Live and said the message he got was Sabres Front Office will remain status quo

He didn't have an Achilles rupture either. It was cut by a skate. Good news is at 9, he's still another yr in Jr's and an ahl season away at minimum.
