  1. I was commenting on the 10 worst contracts in the NHL.. I think you have taken this completely out of context. the day he was signed at 9 mil for 8 years I said that's a bad contract. Skinner didn't deserve Eichel money. He was worth $7 million a season then and I still think that's the number he should be playing at today. He helps us get to the cap floor but that is a bad contract when it was signed and nothing has changed. Do I want to get rid of Skinner or buy him out, no !!!.. But that doesn't change the fact he was overpaid to stay a Sabre when he signed the new contract based on 1 season playing with Eichel
  2. Skinners contract was wrong from day 1. He's playing better now with Granato but not 9 mil per season better IMO... I hated that contract the day it was signed I like skinner but I never liked the contract. He's isn't worth $9 mil per season IMO 63 pts last year is not worth of $9 million
  3. In 6 more years that Skinner contract will be a bargain
  4. I'm never going to piss on the Pegula's. They make changes when they know it ain't working. As for Reiger and Ruff there were lots of fans that wanted change then. The Pegulas don't sit by and do nothing, they may have made choices that didn't work out but at least they admitted it wasn't working and changed it ..... multiple times Yeah the beginning years sucked but at least they work at trying to get it right.. We'll see how it goes the next year but if we improve again some this year and we look to be on the right track then give the guy some credit for making changes instead of sitting on it and hope it eventually works....
  5. Add in a 1st in 2022 and Devon Levi for Reinhart from last season... That a lot of future capital
  6. That's actually a better way of looking at the situation, more of an Ullmark replacement...
  7. In my eyes I see UPL and Comrie as equal prospects with Comrie having a slight edge on experience in the NHL. Its quite possible Comrie over takes UPL for the role. If Comrie can play consistently well, and stay healthy you have to think he leap frogs UPL. UPL has to show consistency and stay healthy.
  8. 2 years in and he made a nice jump from year 1 to year 2. I think he'll show another jump this year especially being surrounded by a team that's getting better as a whole. 25 G - 35 A, 2nd line C
  9. All other prospects must be destroyed!
  10. I recommend looking for plants with leaves of 3.... really work the bunghole
  11. You can push it down the road some and maintain with cap gymnastics but at some point the piper will be paid. Chicago for example, although they went to extreme in their tear down, Dare I say Buffalo tank for McDavid/Eichel extreme Other teams will be forced to make tough decisions, some will prolong for a little while longer, some will start the inevitable decline.
  12. Could be worse but Yeah I don't want to venture that road again going 5 deep on G's
  13. Yeah but I think he is referring to this particular post
  14. Yeah exactly that... He will most likely start in Rochester in 2023, got to get the kid acclimated to the next phase. Should actually see him at the end of next years College season... Might even sniff a game or 3 in Buffalo depending on where were at in the standings, If by chance we can make the playoffs then he'll probably just see Rochester late next season.
  15. What is Samuelson doing to Peterka at the end of that video clip...., is that a dry hump?
  16. Cool...You've watched him some, that does sound exciting.... I'm just a guy who heard his name for the 1st time when we drafted him. so I get regulated to the wait and see crowd, but what you mention sounds great.. Looking forward to seeing that come to fruition
  17. Not so much napping more like lets see it in action.... Hard to tell how players will honestly develop at the next level. Quinn last year was a good example, nobody expected him to make a name for himself so quickly but he showed he could play. Some growing pains but were expecting him to be a solid player in the pros after watching him in Rochester for the the year. This year we watch Rosen and see what he's is really aboot eh!
  18. https://www.nhl.com/sabres/news/buffalo-sabres-development-camp-notebook-goaltender-devon-levi/c-334991722 Love that quote. Sounds like Levi WANT's to be here.
  19. last season was a real good year at the end, lots of positives going forward. Yeah it gets old but we seem to finally have a management system in place making solid moves IMO
