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.

12-4-2024: Practice and media availability canceled
Palm Trees And Taxes replied to That Aud Smell's topic in The Aud Club
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.

Bowen Byram- After a tough start, continues to improve

The Byram for Mitts deal should get Adams fired. No questions asked.- 165 replies

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.

Johnny Gaudreau and Brother Matthew Killed by Drunk Driver
Palm Trees And Taxes replied to aristocrat's topic in The Aud Club
Absolutely tragic as it hits close to home a bit as my nephew was murdered at 25 by a negligent driver in NJ as well. Something I carry with me every day now for 7 years. I cant imagine that family right now, my heart breaks for the Gaudreau family. And for the Columbus Blue Jackets as well, as they have endured tragedies lately. Very sad day for the hockey world. RIP Johnny and Matt -
Yes, if Columbus retained 50% and we found another team to retain another 25%. Otherwise, pass.

Trip to Italy thoughts(planning)…
Palm Trees And Taxes replied to LabattBlue's topic in The Aud Club
Went to Venice, Florence and Rome in 2018 and really enjoyed it. I agree with the pickpockets, just be mindful and careful and you should be fine. Was there in May and Rome was way too crowded, especially a tour of The Vatican, could not truly enjoy it. Florence was beautiful but had some bad experiences there. One thing to remember: If taking a bus in Florence, be sure to get your ticket BEFORE you get on the bus. We waited, thinking we can pay while on the bus, an two 'police officers' approached us and said you needed to buy before, tried to fine us 250 euros and make us seize our US passports. Thankfully, an elderly woman who spoke Italian stepped in and scolded them and we didn't have any issues. -
