Crusader1969

Hopefully this thread can stay on track with the assumption the Sabres keep the pick, even if you want them to trade it. Yes most of us want that , no need to point it out over and over and over again back to the actual draft. I noticed Scott Wheeler had two guys of interest in the slots right around where the Sabres will most likely be picking 11 Cayden Lindstrom 12 Tij Iginla

Nope for a multitude of reasons...the main reason is that he isn't waiving his NMC to come to Buffalo .... lets move on with other ideas

will be 34 and no the decline has started to set in. I would get 50 points with Nylander and Bertuzzi as my wingers

spoken by someone who doesnt live in the GTA. Yes, I cheered the Leafs demise, I have every year of my life and Im 54-0 at this point and love it #1967Forever! Are you saying Bills fans should never have taken joy in seeing the Patriots lose, even while the Bills were in their drought? absolutely nothing wrong with being joyful over another teams demise.

too old too slow isnt he like 37 now?

$8.99 for daily AHLTV. Get all the games for that day Levi has been worth that price each game so far

I bought it for the year but I think you can buy single games.

Anyone can watch. AHLtv. Worth the $5 or so

yep, if you get anyone to take that contract, you jump on it. I don't care the return. I'd package a couple of draft picks if it made the deal happen.

Don't both Marner and pj boy have NMC in their contracts ?

I would bet my life savings on him having less than 20 goals before Christmas , especially playing (at best) a 3rd line role.

skinner won't be a Sabres or will be a candidate for the 14th forward. So it could be 2 spots that are open

Starting to wonder if we could see 4 to 6 new players on the opening night roster Tuch, Cozens, Tage, Quinn, Benson , Greenway and JJP are pretty well guaranteed a spot at this point. my Guess is that Girgs is brought back as well I could see 3 vet UFAs brought in along with Savoie. If Kulich was a winger I'd have him with even odds with Savoie to be the 1 prospect to play opening night but since he isn't ill lean towards Savoie

I dont think you should speak for an entire region and i would argue they mostly want to see a winning team look back at the 05-06 team, not exactly the broad street bullies but they are the most revered team in franchise history. Was Gilbert Perreault a blue collar player? Lafointaine or Mogliny ?

Then why didn't you say this from the start? You started by saying "Too many of the same/similar guy. This is pretty much Adam's draft history." Which really has nothing to do with what you are trying to say. anyways. Let's move on.

what the heck does this mean? are you saying Savoie who just led the WHL in Pts/game isnt excellent Or Kulich who has 51 goals in the AHL before the age of 20?? btw here is the list of goals by prospects under the age of 20 in the AHL 1) Kulich 51 G (119GP) 2) Nylander 32 (75GP) 3) Fiala 29 (70GP) 4) Peterka 28 (7gp) how is this not excellent?

you are moving the goalposts from the original post where you said he keeps drafting the same type of player over and over

can you give examples? seems to me that his drafting has been excellent so far in each draft.

ummm whats Samuelsson?

first of all, Adams didn't draft Johnson who is a 6'1 195lbs Second here are the Dmen drafted by Adams 1) Power 6'5 2) Novikov 6'3 3) Lindgren 6'0 4) Strbak 6'2 5) McCarthy 6'2 6) Keohane 6'4 7) Panocha 6'2 who are the guys that are same / similar drafted by Adams?

I feel the hire of Ruff is pretty well the death shot for Skinners career as a Sabres. He might not get traded but unless there are injuries to Benson and JJP (or regression), Skinner should get used to eating popcorn in the press box.

I don't think Skinner will be here come training camp. Can't help think that a lot of the players were talking about skinner when they spoke of their hope of a coach holding players accountable.

You don't know who he called and spoke to? We wanted an experienced, passionate, no nonsense coach and they got one Don't be miserable just for the sake of being miserable I don't care who you interview, there isn't a coach out there that wants to win for the city of Buffalo any greater than Lindy does.

Most coaches need great goaltending to be fair

You mean the ones that said they drafted the wrong player from the Ottawa 67 a few years ago? Or The ones that thought the Bills drafted the wrong Josh? Or The message boards that wanted Dahlin traded? And Thompson waived? The message boards that wanted UPL cut? The ones that said Mitts was a bust ? Or do you mean the current boards that want Power traded? I think you might be onto something , that there are a lot of posters (often myself included) that have don't have a clue
