Voiding means you are go longer bound by the terms (paying money) of a contract but the contract is still in effect.

I guess there's a difference between termination and voiding.

Buffalo News article says all 6 preseason game will be streamed but only in the Buffalo area. Obviously someone messed up last night as I could see the stream in NH. Please don't fix it.

That is not a given. Also ADR is fairly new in pro athletes. There's no real track record if it works long term or can take a hit.

Tonight he is.

I was happy with the effort even if they lost. But this was entertaining.

65. Who is that?

Granato said it's not. Just for tonight.

Even if you gave Jack his surgery teams would still be skeptical and not offer anything of value.

So which nothing do you prefer? The one that doesn't help us, or the one that doesn't help us but helps another team and Eichel?

If ADR was such a slam dunk you'd think he'd do this.

Translation: get nothing for Jack.

Why is it we have not heard this from any reporters? Seems pretty important. Is insurance one of those things teams never speak of?

So you like the easy part (criticism) but not the hard part.

Curiosity? Share it with a reporter? Does Jack have any say in who sees his records?

Sure.

Only if Jack goes rogue. Is there a liability to the Sabres if they okay ADR and he gets hurt badly afterwards?

Again, how would YOU have played it? Tell me the obvious right way this should have been handled.

Funny how ADR surgery has become getting your tonsils out. Maybe because all you hear is how great it is. No one talks about the risk. It's very possible Jack is finished as an NHL player.

Brisson, the NHL media and the other NHL GMs all want the Sabres to allow Jack his surgery so they assume all the risk. Setting aside any insurance or liability issues, say the Sabres allow Jack to get his ADR. Great. he's skating and can pass a physical. Then the story turns into "Well, how do we know Jack's surgery will stay that way? One hit and he could be a cripple. We'll give you a 6th round pick." So now we rolled the dice but still can't get anything for Eichel. But I guess it's worth it so reporters and NHL fans on Twitter stop calling us the worst franchise in hockey. Oh wait, that won't change either. In fact we'll look even worse because we got played.

So you are advocating caving so you can move Eichel.

As long as he's a Sabre he's an asset. Not a Sabre? You get nothing. So what would you do?

So what's the point we're missing? The Sabres are the worst team in the league? People are laughing at us? We're totally incompetent? Sure, all true. So the answer is to set Jack Eichel free? Is that what you want?

So the way to improve is to cave and give Eichel away? Okay.

Absolutely. Show them to a team that is serious about making an offer. But do you show them to tire-kickers?
