Giving up? Absolutely not! I don't hate Pegula and my guess is he still wants to win. He tried the spending route, tanking route, fan approval route and then the patient route (probably mostly out of necessity). Nothing has worked but I'll give him credit for trying. He's paid multiple people to not work for him to move on, etc etc. I like a lot of our players and feel like we're better than our record. I'm a bit confused on why we suck. We've been making changes to this roster so much, it's hard for me to believe in this "roll it back" narrative. I want a goalie, two much different defenders and another forward with a two way game and toughness. I think we're close or could be with the right moves. I haven't felt that way in a while.

I loved Sam as much as you did (well almost). Because he wasn't a highlight real, ultra skilled star, he was grossly underrated. He's a star now for sure by just doing what he does. I thought Quinn had a chance to be that type of player. I'm not good enough to see all the defensive issues with forwards, but it's painful hearing you say he's so bad, we can move him. I'm sure he'll get better but I suppose we can't have another player like him.

I agree we don't like each other and I'm done with you insulting me. As in, don't do it again. I agree, let's avoid each other going forward.

I get it, it's the owners fault. It's always their fault as the highest rank. The why is what's interesting to me and it's subjective. You say Terry is silent, others say he's meddling. Neither mean anything, at least to me. You couldn't know he's silent and neither could anyone that thinks he's meddling. "A lot of fingers are understandably polnted at the current feckless GM. My finger is pointed at the silent owner.". This actually means absolutely nothing. What imagination and hockey wisdom is involved here?

Did you ever see him as being a player to engage physically? I had the feeling he was a Reinhart type of player. Not seeking physical engagement but maybe made up for it with tenacity and being willing to get in front of the net, things like that. I wonder if his offensive disappointed, which he must have felt that pressure, led to him going down a bad path. You don't see much optimism he can rebound?

I think there's a difference betwen understanding things haven't worked and why they haven't. The why they haven't, IMO is a discussion because we don't have all the information to know.

You always have to resort to name calling. I didn't say you said that about Boterill, didn't you see the question mark? It looks like this (?). It wasn't a statement, that would have ended with a period. You're so stuck on repeating your baseless hatred for Pegula, you can't engage in discussion. I won't comment on anything you post again. You're boring and I'm sick of your insults.

So you wish they would have stayed with Boterill? I disagree, the youth movement was a need. You're also not following me as I said it didn't work. I suppose the difference between us is you pretend to know why.

You don't think we got rid of players without the buy in? The youth movement was a universally agreed upon strategy by most, IMO. Obviously it hasn't worked but to crap on him for what obviously needed to be done, to me, is not being fair.

We have kept it the same, a fraction, of not keeping it the same.

Ouch

Do you mean like we rolled it back with the same line up this year as the previous year?

I thought we played Toronto.

Crap, this is awful news. Get well young man.

This actually a very interesting thought. I appreciate you bringing it up.

They remember. Buffalo fans would take over in their building.

IMO, it's so important that he is.

Dang. Nice play and pass Quinn.

Dahlin is ridiculously skilled.

If I lived in Buffalo I would have season tickets. We live in Charlotte and I take my sons every year to a Carolina game, which is about 2.5 hours away. We've pretty much sucked their entire Hockey fandom but we still enjoy being fans.

IMO, whoever came up with this statement, no truer words have been spoken. Pizza is like sex, even when it's bad, it's still pretty good. In saying that, , Charlotte NC who's attracted most chains, has bad pizza overall. Except of course my two Buffalo spots, Taste of Buffalo and Bisonte.

IYKYK

Which elite goalie are you getting for Levi and a forward? And which forward?

I'm not going to dignify this dumb post with a response. Get it now?

I appreciate that. It's how I meant it. You offended me first and I'm not backing down.
