Palm Trees And Taxes

Don't know how realistic this would be: But i look at the Islanders who need an influx of young talent and the Sabres have an abundance of it. C Matthew Barzal has a 22 team no trade clause: 9.15M AAV the next 4 years, 27 years old, has been a PPG player multiple times. Would love to see the Sabres target a guy like Barzal and make him 1C, move Tage to W and I believe this can trickle down and make the Sabres better.

Quinn is finished. Of course until he is traded too soon

Calling a 5-3 Sabres W tonight. Why? Because they love to tease and torment us into believing for a bit only to have an incoming drubbing at the hands of a lottery team incoming soon after that.

Might of been the worst quote in Sabres history and that is saying a lot.

Side effects might include dizziness, trouble breathing, and feeling the urge to pay more taxes and seeing palm trees over Lake Erie.

Scott Wedgewood confirmed in net tonight for Colorado.

Sabres will start winning once entire pressure is off and hurt NHL Draft Lottery position: the new Sabre way

Habs 5 Sabres 4. Sabres up 4-0 and lose in regulation.

Terry Pegula is a terrible speaker in public I am sure it was a speech that gave Adams and the players chills and will inspire them for years to come 🙄

Worst organization in the NHL and it is not close. A complete and utter, certified GRADE A CLOWN SHOW

Fire up Audie the Sabres Dog to help smooth things over with the fans

The other thing I truly worry about with this franchise is: The attendance is still low at least from what I see on TV, we are now getting close to 15 years and no playoffs and the young generation in WNY just will not latch onto the Sabres like previous generations did. If the Sabres are not careful, there might be a real change this team is sold and relocates. I hope I am way off on this but things have to change and fast.

The only thing I will kind of stick up for Adams on with all these no move and no trades everywhere throughout the league it is hard to utilize that cap space the way you truly want to: Adams can want players Y and Z but if those players won't come here, not much can be done. And Adams helped create that as well. But the issue starts at the top with Pegula. And a lack of a top flight executive at the top that can truly help Adams and the rest of the staff. The Sabres aren't making $ either at the gate, and Terry won't spend what is needed. The biggest issue here is trading guys like Reinhart when most players usually start to peak at 24, 25 and that is when we have shipped out some of this high end talent like Eichel and Reinhart. Sadly the Sabres will have to just go with what we have, develop, and hope for the best.

Wow some of the questions from the media are edgy. I love it. It is about time. Grill this guy.

If this presser is to announce that Kevyn Adams is getting PROMOTED then the issues in this organization go way beyond talent on the ice, HC or any GM that we bring in. On what planet does Adams deserve a promotion at this point?

Sabres will win tonight and lose to the Utah Hockey Club Saturday afternoon. I don't make these rules, it is just how it works in Sabreland.

Wow. Something big about to happen?

Because it means more then most fans realize: Maybe it is coincidence, maybe not but: 11 of the last 20 Conference Finals teams in the NHL are from the tax friendliest markets: Florida, Texas and Nevada An example: I believe this is why teams like Buffalo and Montreal have given out long term deals to young players earlier to help ease that tax disadvantage, especially Montreal. It is a risk that some franchises have to take more then others.

Season is over. NHL Lottery is the focus yet again.

We need another center to move Cozens to W and that could in turn help Quinn.

The Byram for Mitts deal should get Adams fired. No questions asked.

I think the Sabres need TWO legit centers, Cozens and Tage would be more consistent and successful on the wings, and this would push some of the other forwards down into better roles as well.

I told myself i was done several days ago, but after almost 40 years with this franchise: Here i am yet again back for MORE torture

I will. Im going to root for one of the tax break franchises. they are running the league anyway.

Fastest tapout of this team as a fan Ive had since I started rooting for the Sabres in 1982. This franchise isn't worth it anymore. Thanks all. I am done.
