Mr. Hall of Fame.

How dare someone cite Sabres trades when refuting no one will trade with us?

Yes. He's just going to toss that chit chat bomb out there and see what happens. Oh go ahead.

If you really listen closely to Peters on his podcast, he takes both sides of a position, sometimes switching back and forth in the same sentence. That allows him to claim he was right no matter the outcome. He did that when Adams gave Tage his big deal. Or he won't get bent over because the other GM thinks Adams is under pressure to do something.

With a loaded prospect pool, some of which are open for a deal. But noooooooooo. Can't deal with the Sabres. 🙄

Oh yeah, sure. Nate Geary's criticisms are devastating. 🙄

Nothing is ever 100% a win or a loss. I'm just trying to maintain perspective while people express their frustration with what's happening now I have to believe GMs were low balling Adams, testing to see how desperate he was. Eventually someone will make a serious offer for a Kulich or Östlund or whoever.

You seen to have selective amnesia about why those players left. Adams improved the Sabres by moving good but disgruntled players who wanted out. And he drafted what is now ranked the #2 prospect pool. He also stuck with UPL when everyone said he was trash. He locked up players like Tage, Samuelsson and Cozens early. Unfortunately injuries set all three back. But last year was definitely a black eye. And now we are at a crossroads.

Explain what it is about Adams that prevents other GMs from dealing with him? If he's such a clueless noob wouldn't savvy GMs be calling him often to see if they could get our better prospects for little value in exchange?

Nice story, bro. Here's what was exchanged: VGK: >Jack Eichel2 >2023 third-round pick (Mathieu Cataford) BUF: >Alex Tuch >Peyton Krebs >2022 first-round pick (Noah Östlund) >2023 second-round pick (Riley Heidt) Considering how many of us were willing to take a bag of pucks just to get Eichel off the team, I'd say Kev did well. Funny you didn't bring up getting a 1 for Risto (Isak Rosen) and getting Devon Levi and 1st (Jiri Kulich) from the Panthers.

Where's the "Every day" option?

He has improved the team since taking over. They took a step back last year. But because we are building though the draft and not through trades and free agency, it takes longer.

You better find another team to you for because Terry isn't selling.

Or... You're impatient. If Terry is so bad as an owner, why are all his other teams successful? Luck? Then he'll get lucky with the Sabres eventually.

I guess Adams forgot how to make trades since the Eichel, Risto and Reinhart trades. 🤔 If a team wants one of our prospects they can make a legit offer. It feels like yesterday when people were losing their minds over Eichel not getting moved immediately. Everyone thought Adams was over a barrel. Instead Kev held fast until VGK got serious. What you call inexperience is more the opposite. Anyone of you whiners would have been taken to the cleaners while you show off the magic beans you just acquired. Adams will make a trade when teams start offering value.

Best way to keep the drought going is to blow things up every couple years.

I just looked it up...375 pages!! Hope your weekend is open.

How many pages was that thread? A hundred?

Who thinks the Sabres trade back into the 1st round?

Most folks here. People convinced themselves taking too long to trade Jack was the worst thing in the world.

Every GM is going to try to take advantage of the Sabres.

Sabres table is empty. Off to the bar.

That didn't happen, did it

The venue is amazing.
