GDT: Colorado Avs @ Buffalo Sabres 12/3/24 --7 pm MSG
Crusader1969 replied to bob_sauve28's topic in The Aud Club
Anyone who think Dahlin isn't by far the most important player on this team should be forced to watch the 3rd period on loop for 48hrs straight no way they crumble like that with him on the ice -

Give me one 22 year old dman you want out there defending Mackinnon. If you can't see this is on Adams, I can't help you -

Then we are in agreement. Power isn't ready for the position he has been put it he is fine, especially considering his age -

No , never but he will learn to use his size to his advantage and will get stronger. this is on the Sabres, putting him in a position to fail -

So you are saying he should have declined the money ??? That's on Adams not the player do you think Luke Hughes has to try to shut down the top lines up by 1 ? guess how many minutes killing penalties Luke Hughes has played this season ? Not one !!! That's a team that is serious about winning. Not the Sabres I'll do my part. Won't watch and won't participate on the game day thread -

At least power has potential to improve. He will get better, I doubt anyone would disagree with that there isnt one 22 year dman you want out there playing against the top players vs the Avs in crunch time. He shouldn't be put into that position as he clearly isn't ready for it You lose Dahlin and you have no choice because the GM hasnt done his job by bringing in legit NHL defenders Power should not have to be penalty killing and should not be out there when protecting a lead That's not on Power, he's at where he should be in his development curve that's on the GM Both Bryson and Jokiharju need to be gone....tomorrow and a legit top 4 dman brought in via trade -

We should all boycott the next game. empty stadium , no one watching on tv and no game day thread. just forget about them all together Gotta be better things to do with our lives then invest time and emotion on this team -

All you can do is laugh. I feel bad for anyone that truly cares about this franchise anymore It's amazing how little emotion I have watching this team Half the time, the game is just in the background while I look at my phone Hopefully the pressure is ramped up on Adams to make a move, even if it means overpaying you can not be a serious team and have both Bryson and Joker in your top 6 still. We all knew 3 years ago that neither is good enough. Bryson should be in AHL and Joker should be on a team trying to Tank -
Yikes shots 39-12 for the Amerks. Game tied 2-2
-
In a bubble I would have too BUT I think Kevyn needs someone who can help this year if he's gonna trade his 1st rounder
-
For those, like me, who didn't want to spend $250 on amerks games on FLo. Here is a free game stream of todays game
-
Hunt, 1st and more draft picks for Jiricek. would be like Rousak and a 1st, which seems to be worth it BUT I'm thinking (hoping) Adams wants to hold onto his 1st round pick in order to acquire an RHD who is ready to step in a contribute right away
-
My initial thought is that the Sabres acquiring him would look amazing in a couple of years but Adams can't wait for Jiricek. I think Provorov is the real "get" assuming the Blue Jackets want to trade the impending UFA
-
Crazy that Columbus is giving up on Jiricek. Will be interested in the return and if the Sabres should have offered more

Crusader1969 replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
I had reason to be negative, they just lost to Montreal and had UPL and Thompson get injured Since then they've gone 4-2-1 and both UPL and Tage are back If they lost to SJ and Chicago at home the last 2 games and looked uninterested I would get it BUT they went toe to toe with 2 of the top teams in the league after going 3-0 on the west coast lose tonight and I won't blame people for negativity I should have said the last couple of games, not season. -
I clearly said the player has to be a Free Agent, how in the world didn't Mitts fall into that catergory? this team needs a top 4 RHD much more than it needs a top 6 forward Even without a move , are you that sure that this team as it's currently constructed isn't a playoff team? cause I think they are

So the capitals had so much talent, compared to this years Sabres, that they were able to overcome a 7 game losing streak in January? while the Sabres are finished if they lose tonight when it's not even December? -

I'm with you. Tired of it al, especially on game day threads. I guess misery truly does love company. I honestly can't understand how anyone can watch the Sabres this season and not be in a positive frame of mind when you consider how they looked under Granato -
Here's the thing you fail to accept . 2 things need to be true in order for a team to give up a top 6 scorer 1) has to be a free agent at the end of the current season; 2) the team needs to be out of playoff contention This is true of every goal scorer traded since at least 2019-20 On top of that, most of the upcoming Free Agents have NMCs in their contracts, which Buffalo is always on You are asking Adams to do the impossible with few teams are out of contention right now. Not only that,if you look at the upcoming UFA list, I ask you, who exactly is top 6 forward you would target? Hockey trades just don't happen anymore

They are 6-3-1 in their last 10. Why would anyone have dispair. I know you are not talking about yourself. the rest of your post is spot on -

Seriously they lost a game they deserved better from vs Minny and came back from 3-1 down vs Vancouver they combine for a record of 19-3-3 on the road. A lot of teams have lost at home to them and a bunch will make the playoffs it's like a huge part of the Sabres fan base has zero clue of what's going on in the league -

You sure about that? Why do people say the stupidest stuff without doing any investigation. First team I looked at was the Washington capitals last season in Nov they had a 3 game losing streak, in Dec they had a 4 game losing streak and in January they lost 7 in a row
