Man is this not gonna be popular. That said, they are back next season regardless.

I am kinda excited to see him again. He is my favorite player.

Like when they got Hawerchuk to take the D off Alex and Patty.

I don’t need the information you require. What’s the benefit of having him play these games? For the fans? A league and an organization that does everything it can to alienate fans and treat them with complete indifference. Or is it a NHLPA thing? He’s healthy so he has to play? Frankly, I’m just bitter about the team. The story could have been Jack Quinn saved a 1000 puppies from certain death and I’d probably still have a problem with it. There is no point to the remainder of the season. I just want it to end.

I don’t need any knowledge surrounding Quinn’s injury to understand that him playing in meaningless games immediately after two consecutive leg issues might not be warranted. I’m sure they are just looking out for their fans here, giving them some juice for the final twirl around the toilet bowl. I guess if he’s good to go, let’s throw him out there so fans can cling to what might be, until it isn’t…

Until he snaps his leg in half…again

What’s the point on bringing him back for 10 meaningless games.

This place really becomes unlikeable in the doldrums of another lost season.

Are we supposed to name the source of the info in the thread title or do you work for WGR?

I’ve never had a what could have been moment. It sounds miserable.

Just ask the mods (you aren’t one are you?) to count who has most “ignored”.

Buffalo Bills day today

Yes like Brady Tkachuk. Probably need to throw in Kulich plus.

Waddle, Tyreek, Achane and Mostert would like a word.

Aren’t they just hoping the pick you give them turns into what they are giving away? Hence, why would anyone make that deal.

Joki does seem like the odd man out but I’m wondering about Power. With Byrum that is an awfully too heavy D with almost all offensive types. I could see them flipping Power for a young power forward no pun intended.

He was concussed for sure. It’s affecting him. But he also was slumping before the injury. After he got back from World Juniors, he went scoreless in quite a few games before the concussion.

I’ll bet they are within $3 mill of the cap next season Well, they need a dance partner. It would take a team either over the cap or ready to move on from the player.

I think Savoie and Östlund will be Sabres soon. Probably good ones. I also think Neuchev and Novikov may be over taking Kulich and Rosen on the depth chart. (I realize Novikov is a D but he’s emerged as a top level D prospect) Neuchev’s speed and lateral quickness are something the Sabres don’t have. He’s Afinogenov lite. Not quite as fast or quick but he’s way faster than anyone they currently ice. We know pace of play is a problem with Buffalo. Victor’s path to Buffalo may be short as he has what they need.

Also worth noting, no one is exactly breaking down the door pushing themselves into the lineup. Kulich and Rosen have been MIA the last half of the season, Neuchev and Novikov are in the next group and may be closer to Buffalo than the aforementioned.

Why would anyone want to give away a young impact player?

No games at the BCA?

Who’s the biggest jerk rated in the top 15? That’s who the Sabres should target. Tired of all the niiiiiice players. I want *****. 😎

Power & Dahlin’s contract extensions kick in next season. That’s a $12.5 mill increase from this season. UPL is due for a raise as well, anywhere from $3-6 mill depending on term. So they will have an increase of 15-20 mill based on those 3. I’m guessing Adams decided the team couldn’t afford Mitts with the impending raises. Maybe he also decided Casey wasn’t the type of player he wanted moving forward. I don’t know if I agree, just trying to dive into the mind of GMKA. Good teams keep the guys they want. They find a way. This team isn’t good and I’m not sure they know who they want. There might also be some buyers remorse with Dahlin, Power, Tage and Cozens. Maybe that is making Kevyn gun-shy. I’ve lost faith in this regime. I don’t think a new coach will fix all of their problems. They need a heart transplant. Can they do they if they move Power and buy out Skinner? Tage and Dylan make me nervous. I think Cozens has the desire, I’m just not sure he has the ability to make the difference. Tage on the other hand. I’m worried they hitched their cart to a broken horse.

Yet we see other teams get away with crap like that against our team of figure skaters every game.
