Not Samson. We are going to fight to keep him.

"There's no way an ECHL goalie can make it in the NHL." - Jordan Binnington

If a team is willing to give the Sabres a package like this right now with Jack still injured you grab it with both hands. Letting the "Eichel Disconnect" linger into next season will just make things worse. God forbid we get to the last few weeks before Jack's NMC kicks in. Rip the bandage off and move on.

You're right. I'm just thinking that Sam has been around longer than Jack and has seen more losing. He's burnt out, but he can still show up and play. And he saw what the young players can do. Maybe you can coax Sam to give it one more year and be the leader.

Adam's Gambit.

Won't happen. They are taking a bath right now. Being able to have some fans in Buffalo lessens the sting. But they would never choose to play here over Toronto. That's why you gotta see it if you can.

But you trade him at the deadline to a contender if that's his wish. At least we get something.

Many actually.

It's to gain Sam's trust. Get him to become the leader of the Sabres. If it doesn't work. He's free.

Sam, not Jack, is the guy you try to coax to stick around. Make him a promise. Give it till trade deadline. Give Granato and the kids a training camp. If the Sabres are still floundering, Sam can pick his spot.

KA is going to move Eichel quickly. Nothing to be gained if this lingers into training camp. Turn the page. It sounds like there is a market for Jack. The key is not getting hung up on no trade return being good enough. Grab the good deal. My old boss had a saying: "Pigs get fat. Hogs get slaughtered."

Winnipeg.

You would be to if you had to answer questions from Harrington and Ham-sammich every game day.

I think the Bills pre-McBeane are a perfect example. There was a lack of accountability and commitment to excellence. Not to mention a number of players in it for themselves.

Tell your boss how you really feel. Then let us know how he responds.

No legit GM would answer those questions. Discussing hypothetical trades of your best player in a press conference?? Are you serious???

Well what did you expect? 25-0 and a playoff berth? What's a reasonable expectation?

It's more like asking questions to embarrass the speaker. They already have a story written. They just need that quote to be the centerpiece.

You have to acknowledge what an amazing turnaround we saw that last month or so. The Sabres went from a team that was ready to give up to one that fought back to win games multiple times. And done with a roster half made up of AHL players. It's not lost on me the kids outplayed Hall and Staal while they were here.

Not to mention asking really stupid questions like "how would you feel if you were the player?" He's the GM. He's got a team to run.

It's amazing to me how professional journalists have such difficulty asking a clear question.

Please explain. I'm not hearing that

BURN THE WITCH!

It's time for the main event. LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLLLLLLLLLEEEE!
