I just don’t want them putting Ellis out there if this team has already quit. He deserves better than that.

Guess it’s not too early for this thread to hold interest.

The issue is Tage doesn’t know any better. He could be that leader, but he developed in this mess and what he sees is normal to him. Same for Dahlin. We need a leader to come from the outside. Preferably with the coach and GM that made him a leader.

Couldn’t agree any more. It doesn’t matter the industry, we’ve all worked for upper management that were clueless or don’t act like they care. It can be incredibly demotivating.

Don’t worry, Kevyn is going to trade for a top 6 winger last summer.

I‘m not in favor of signing Tuch. Get what you can get for him and blow it up. Wipe the slate clean. Let the new HC/GM what to do with Tage and Rasmus. At this rate, I would’ve been better to just waive Cozens with the hope someone else kee would pick up his contract. Now we are stuck with one that’s just as high.

It’s a sign!

This is a real thing in the Corporate world. People who are killing it will get raises, but are usually kept at what they excel at. The ones who suck, get promoted.

It’s not shocking. Good decision.

I wonder why we didn’t just trade for this guy. Seems like a decent prospect, but it’s an all (succeeds in NHL by some miracle) or nothing (sinks because he came up too early, is waived, and goes back to STL) situation. Maybe they didn’t want to hurt Devon’s feelings? Maybe it’s best to give him as much time as possible and we make the decision in the later half of the year. Another wasted season though.

Kasparov got $17M and McJeaus gets $12.5M?

It’s a gripe be can bring to the NFLPA. They are the ones that pushed for guaranteed contracts. The reason he can’t rip up that contact is because it is 100% guaranteed. Players can’t have it both ways. If this was the NFL, that contract would’ve been reworked already.

So, the question becomes, which will come first: the day of alien disclosure by our government or the Sabres making the playoffs?

So basically they are being used as a tool for his agent (and Tuch) to get a better contract.

I hope they give him some time off so he can focus on his problem. There’s no excuse for this and plain stupid, a kid being in the car too makes a bad situation 100x worse.
