Thank you. Not as much coming back as I recall in the past.

So spit balling here, say it's a $6MM/yr offer, how many #1s come back? This sounds like something we should root for, as much as I'd here to see Sam go.

If the Sabres decline is there compensation? Sam was 1st round pick. Don't we get a couple #1s back? I remember the Vanek offer sheet from EDM could have netted the Sabres 4 #1s. In hindsight that would have been the play. But Buffalo had just let Briere and Drury walk. Letting Vanek leave would have caused the fanbase to riot.

Shouldn't a guy making his money bring offense to the team? Your basically saying Skinner needs everything teed up for him.

He was on the top line a bunch last season and did diddly squat.

I'm tackling "Helgoland" by Carlo Rovelli. About the relational nature of reality at the quantum level.

This 4th of July in New England is the worst. Rain and 50's. It was 98 just a few days ago. Monday might be salvageable.

Which I'm fine with with the right compensation coming back.

Thanks for the concern but I'm fine. I don't let the negativity ruin things for me. This is no different than Two Bill Drive in the midst of the 17-year playoff drought. Some people love to wallow in misery. When you're at the bottom you can feel sorry for yourself, or you can work to climb out. Based on what I saw from Don Granato's Sabres last year, I have confidence this team can start climbing.

@PASabreFan Glad you agree it was a great answer.

Yeah, this sounds like every other answer. 🙄

Seriously. These reporters will ask the same question 50 times.

Like the phrase "players wanting to be here?" I heard that once, said by John Wawrow.

So Rob Ray almost threw him out of a Sabres Alumni meeting before he knew Granato he was.

OMG Donny thanked Terry& Kim. He's under their spell!

Shhhh. This is a secret.

Well there you go. You're not listening. I am. They mentioned it several times in the past hour and The morning show mentioned it in every sports cast. If they are trying to hide it they are doing a terrible job. You are entering tin foil hat territory, PA.

I think you had the answer but kept going down the hole chasing the White Rabbit.

J'accuse!

Are you accusing me of having an agenda, Pot?

More like Ludefisk. I know it's not like SabreSpace to overreact to things, but isn't there a difference between giving 2-cents and ordering your GM to make a move? And in this case he's liking the consensus #1 pick. It's not like he's telling KA to draft his dog Sidney.
