You'll be the first one eaten.

NHL GM meetings were in March in Florida.

If it is possible at all, I probably post less actual hockey content than you.

How barely engaged are you when you post here constantly?

Why? It's Sabres pace not Buffalo Sabres space ?? So Atlanta Sabres , really nothing changes I prefer they go to KC and come back as the scouts. Maybe the best uniform the NHL has ever had ? Of course , this board would have to be amended ?

How many Bills games are there a year? The stupidest ***** idea I have ever read here, is "move the Sabres arena to orchard Park"

Give me the Houston Sabres, then they can take advantage of the Palm Trees and Tax breaks Kevyn Adams yearns for

So, there are no roads to Orchard Park? People walk 10, 20 miles to Bills games?

Except no one can get there and it's 41 hockey events and another 50 other events downtown

Why?

What an awful awful idea.

Why does it have to stay downtown? What is the reasoning? when other players are taking photos from their hotel rooms of crumbling 100+ year old grain silos and boarded up 100+ year old factory sites, I find Orchard Parks location a no brainer.

I've read them. I just don't see what you're seeing. Obviously Seattle has a nicer arena, it's new. Sure there's some nicer weight rooms. I guess I just don't see some "omg! That team is just the bees knees cuz that facility or chef" I'm sure the Sabres can do more, but the origin of this was the Sabres have subpar facilities, not "well the Sabres don't have the top 3 facilities in the league"

This is not true unless it’s the most unreported GM meeting ever. Their meetings are usually held after the trade deadline

Like alot of folks, I am barely engaged already. The only change it would make in my life is I would have to find another social media outlet to replace this one.

You say that now. I wonder how you'll feel when the moving vans come for the Atlanta Sabres? Absolutely not! Any new arena has to stay downtown. Which is moot because a refurb of the present arena is far more likely.

A new arena, right where Rich stadium is across from the new stadium would be the route to go. They can keep KBC up with the hotel in downtown, turn it into the worlds largest killer whale tank for all I care, but a new arena away from the city of Buffalo would definitely be the way to go. Since downstate and Albany have sucked the life out of WNY for well over a half a century, the stadium AND a new arena is the least they can do.

We don’t have a hockey team anyway. Its almost no risk.

Not necessarily. He could move over to the sales end of things. He could also go back to Harborcenter and the Academy of Hockey.

Remember the beginning of last season when Adams announced that it was playoffs or bust and no more excuses. Then they finished bottom 10 and he did a power point presentation to keep his job and now here they are in last place again. Good Times. Buffalo Sabres: Standards and Competence 😝

It’s not just time to fire Adams — it’s long past time. And the truth is, TP shouldn’t just hand the keys to the next GM… he needs to hand over the entire damn car. Write the cheques, step aside, and stay out of the way. Unfortunately, I don’t see TP allowing that to happen

Nothing changes until the owner who rationalized losing changes.

100% agree Not once have I heard that

I do not have any videos to post, but I also have seen some shorts on social media with various franchises, including NHL cities, where owners are pouring money into training facilities to make them nicer and more appealing to players and employees. The common theme is it can give a team an advantage when it comes to recruiting free agents and coaches and convincing them to stay. If every time you go to work, you could hang out in a place where everything looks new, is nice, has great food and near spa like facilities, those things would or could be a deciding factor in how much you like your work environment.

It's not basketball and football. I'm not sure why you're not reading my post. The ones I know about are Florida, salt lake City, and Seattle that I posted videos for. I don't have the link of it but the CNBC money in ports special talked about all sports and they said that all owners, including NHL owners, are looking to put more money into this in the future. I'm not saying winning. Doesn't matter, but Buffalo trails those other cities in winning... And weather... And market size.... So if you want to be successful this is one area that you would think they actually can exploit and not fall behind. Darren draeger was just on a appearance in Canada.. yesterday I believe and he mentioned the sabers building... I assume the key Bank center.. is becoming a liability. Facilities aren't everything, but they matter. The sabers training facilities, and the arena where they play are becoming a liability. Is it a small liability? Maybe, but this franchise can't fall any further behind... Especially when you have a multi-billionaire owner.
