Then you must be purposely ignorant. We have a handful of players whom have already played well in the playoffs with other teams. Dahlin has most certainly shown up in big games, the Carolina game from the close year being a perfect example Thompson shows flashes We can't truly know until we actually make it.

Again ill never judge the difference based on playoff games. Players go a full 100% in the playoffs versus 75% to 85% in the regular season most nights

I’d need a bit more back but the idea is solid.

Charlotte now swept the Bears and Rockets in consecutive series after going 5 games with the Providence Bruins

Who’s the guy here who does the physicals with the players? Get us some stories 🙂

https://puckgm.puckpedia.com/rosters/612790 We'd need to jump through some hoops next offseason but we'd be in the clear in 27-28. Using some deferred salary I gave Tuch 8.35mil cap hit Robertson we give 1x9.5mil with the intention to offer 8x11.5mil the following year. Essentially we'd just have to convince him that are tight this offseason but great in 2 years.

Biggest issue with Robertson is he’s 1 year to UFA and he’s going to be looking for Dahlin money which we don’t exactly have

Technically Adams would be closer to the truth based on those specific phrasing. You don't choose to win, you can choose to try to win but you can't just state you'll win and will it into existence. Winning is a byproduct of many different elements coming together to create success; continued success is neither aligned nor unaligned with immediate winning but are not directly linked. The problem is that Adams keeps using bad ingredients to make his Sabres Pie.

I decided to read the article and then just file it away. It paints such a bleak picture that one could easily just throw up their arms in surrender because it effectively tells us the Buffalo Sabres only hope of having success is via a 1 in a Million set of circumstances playing out. Otherwise the franchise itself would have to be sold to another owner and that would have a high likelihood of it being moved which defeats the purpose. Hell I'm still concerned as to what will happen when Pegula dies seeing as his estate would have to split his assets which not only would put the Sabres in jeopardy but the Bills as well.

Pegula puts his money into the Bills because it prints more money; he personally involves himself in the Sabres because he believes himself to be an asset

Dahlin actually looks better on his off-side It would take some cap finagling but I'd be happy to give him a shot. Let him and UPL compete

Ironic how it worked in either context lol

Forgot he's a Syracuse boy

Good luck, Post Malone is definitely one of those "Don't judge a book by its cover" guys. He looks kind of scary but seems to genuinely be a good dude; hell he was a YouTuber with a couple friends originally.

I love the idea of Ekblad but can’t fathom how to piece together a roster with 3 D making about 27mil My 1st priority is extending Tuch and figuring out Peterka’s ask. Want a bridge of 2x6.5 JJ? Sure. 7 x 7.5 mil, why thank you; we accept. If he wants 3/4 years or some 9+ mil AAV then I look to trade him. The issue is less this season but more next year with money thanks to our “ingenious” buyout of Skinner. If we didn’t want to use the savings then we should have waited a year.

Here's another idea, it gives us a solid team with potential and depth. https://puckgm.puckpedia.com/rosters/602182 Quinn has to earn his way back into the starting role, but I would like a chance to try him with Rossi and see if they can bring back their old 67's chemistry

His son actually

I’d rather keep Peterka but I saw an offer that was pretty good Rossi, Spacek and a 26 2nd for Peterka and our 26 3rd Rossi wants 7x7mil It would all depend on Peterka’s ask.

Kek has been involved with the drafting of Gavrikov in LA, Pieterangelo in VGK and apparently was a mentor for Zito so that’s a positive

All I fear is him wanting to acquire Gudbranson

Well Oettinger makes 8.25mil for the next 8 years so that would be a tad rough for a couple years

I do like Rochester’s coach more than Appert.

https://puckgm.puckpedia.com/rosters/591851 Here's a theoretical Rossi for Peterka deal.

Well I would rather him not help a conference rival prevent us from getting a playoff position. Plus I want nothing to do with K Miller seeing as most Rangers fans want to try him at forward like we had wanted with Risto for many years. Plus eeing as Miller is an American versus Schneider being a Canadian we know which they’d choose if all else equal In the end I just don’t want a new iteration of traded player thrives while our return fumbles and or bumbles around getting us no closer to the playoffs. That and I’m sick of the media pushing the agenda of moving players out of Buffalo so they can be in bigger markets. They rarely say anything about how we somehow still have incompetence in and around the franchise yet have every possible scoop on a good Sabre being pursued by * insert large market here*
