The News is hiring a new Sabres beat reporter. Why does that not register with you?

I'm just not "with the program" here.

Nothing in this lottery was different than any other year EXCEPT they drew the balls live on stage. I don't know what to tell you.

But they did "keep score" in real time. They eliminated teams that weren't in the running and they showed the winning number for any remaining team at the final ball. Yeah, for 1.5 seconds. Enough to trigger people. And it's not just Buffalo falling back two spots. Boston, Philly, Nashville and Seattle all fell back two spots.

I'm not the one taking posts out of context to score points in some game in your own head.

I totally do not understand why you feel this way.

https://puckgm.puckpedia.com/draft-lottery-combos There was no secret. You could have looked up every winning combo for every team.

I don't think so, but you just go on believing whatever. You mean like The Secret but in reverse?

I was under the impression that if someone offers you a trade you have to accept it. Am I wrong? 🤔

You responded to @Mr. Allen 's post suggesting firing their GM helped the Islanders win the lottery. I assumed that you were suggesting keeping Adams somehow led to us not winning. I'm curious, who have you hated that we've drafted the past 5 years? Kulich? Quinn? Benson? Östlund?

I can absolutely see how that affected those bouncing balls.

I thought you were overreacting to something that happens every day. It's the offseason for the Sabres and Bills, so to have Lance cover both teams while a new Sabres beat writer is hired is perfectly normal. I thought maybe you misread the tweet, saying there would be no one covering the Sabres.

And a more prestigious league, even if he were covering the Browns.

Seattle too. Jason Botterill is picking two spots worse.

If it makes you feel any better, Boston, Nashville, Philly and Seattle all got knocked back 2 spots as well.

Nope. That's another drought we can cry over.

Actually this is exactly how they did it.

At least we aren't 11th 😛 Isn't that what we wanted?

Sabres pick 9th

Utah

I thought we didn't care?

Islanders

2!

14-3 = 11

1 of 11 chance.
