The reason for existence for the Buffalo Sabres has devolved from winning the Stanley Cup to training Kevyn Adams on how to be the GM of an NHL team.

For the F bomb alone Rob Ray deserves immortality.

Anybody but Eichel.

We got a collection of young players with upside. Now the challenge this offseason is to get a few more veteran players around them to put them in a position to individually and team-wise succeed.

No thank you. Then the Loafs are where the Canes were in '06 - a serious injury run for the opponent away from the Finals to which they then may be a goalie injury away from their first trophy since '67. Screw THAT. Let them lose the next 2 so they have no inkling of a possibility of ending one of the few (or the only at this point, unless you give credit the SJ for all their misses dating back to '67 for their long journey back to the Bay area; and personally don't give Dallas credit for a win, but they were AWARDED one, and most people count that (mistakenly) as having won one) SC droughts longer than the Sabres and Nucks droughts.

These are two young players with upside and energy. I'm not complaining. The two young players who needs to step it up are Quinn and Power. My suspicion is that Quinn might be dealt for more veteran presence.

Morris Titanic - Music Maestro (hey, if you still here after 14 years, you might as well go down with the ship)

Kulich has more goal scoring upside but idk about offensive upside. Zach Benson feeds pucks into HD areas with a skill the Sabres haven't yet capitalized on. Benson is superior defensively. I like Kulich a lot and his skating is faster than Benson which gives him an advantage.

Alex Moligny - Travel Coordinator 🤣 It's only a 12 hour ride to St. Louis!

In other tariff news for the great cheeto negotiator, China called his bluff and got what they wanted. https://apple.news/A7wugjOcGSdODqFle6cc2tA

We probably shouldn't ignore the fact Kulich got 9 assists, often playing with the league's best goal scorer and is a year older than Benson. D3 seasons of 1st-round Sabre forwards: Reinhart 79 17/30/47 -11 Eichel 67 25/39/64 -25 Nylander 12 2/2/4 -4 Mittelstadt 31 4/5/9 -2 Cozens 79 13/25/38 -19 Quinn 74 14/23/37 -7 Kulich 62, 15/9/24 -4 Benson ??? And just because I noticed him: Power 76 6/27/33 +8 He's right there with Sam Reinhart in terms of the 2nd-most advanced guy behind Eichel. That +8 really sticks out. Something to think about.

Paul Cyr - Travel Director DR... (Yeah this may close the thread)

Slava Kozlov and Doug Gilmour - Alumni Associate directors

Marty. He's quite good at adding context.

Jim Schoenfeld - April to September Lockport Landscaper, after all when you used to early exits, you need a hobby... Ouch this is getting funny🤣 or own a bar in the Georgetown Square Plaza in Williamsviile

Don't you mean Berglund. His motto is if you don't like how things are going, then quit and move to Sweden.

Hodgson Kaleta Connolly Peters 😂 Rivet 😂

100% this. Marty could transition from intermission to color so easily. His command of the game far surpasses Ray. And he lives there.

Berglund

Steve Tasker.

With speed and enough opportunities, they're going to score more, period.

The funniest thing for me is that Tkachuk is also laughing because he hasn't even had to be himself yet. Marchand the Leaf killer is so in their heads at the moment. They got rats on every line. This could still go either way, but you can see the Florida being Florida is slowly getting to the Leafs and they are going to have trouble staying focused and disciplined.

Lying sacks off maga scum. Every. Single. One.

I haven't seen anything that shows me that he can produce in the NHL. At best he's like Alex Nylander imo. Similar to Fabien Lysell in Boston. Another first round Swedish guy with speed and skill but not able to do it in the NHL. Never say never in terms of development paths but their value isn't very high .
