  1. The closest thing Byram will ever get is to Dahlin is to be his partner. After his 2 years or up, he can then try to be him on another team. Hopefully, we’ll flip him next offseason when another team thinks he’s Dahlin-lite. But, yes, he wants Dahlin’s position, but failed at it last season. And I also think it’s obvious other teams don’t see him playing a Dahlin-role as well. Otherwise, we would have our king’s ransom.
  2. Just sign him and be done with it. Place Byram next to Dahlin. Kesselring next to Power. Timmons can be a 5/6 that can be elevated to top 4 if either of them get injured. And the team still hasn’t addressed the what if Dahlin goes down for 1-2 weeks? We going to go on a new losing streak? At least with Byram and the newcomers, maybe we can go 0.400-0.500 during these games.
  3. If that’s what they believe, then that’s one thing. But, Timmons as a top 4? Really?
  4. True 4D chess would be to trade Timmons and a 2027 2nd rounder to get JBD back. Except for JBD. Apparently he went to the hearing stage and was awarded an obscene amount of money. Seriously though, this was Adams reason for dumping JBD, yet he traded for a different defenseman who is doing exactly what Kevyn feared JBD would do.
  5. lol. This is fantastic, especially when Kevyn dumped JBD to avoid this very thing!
  6. The only Amerk ready to come up is Kulich. Yeah, I know…but there’s no way he would have come up on a playoff team last year. Otherwise, I’m not interested in anyone else coming up save for Levi (if ready, but even him…). Put it this way, if they cannot help us get into the playoffs, they should not be coming up. Many teams play younger players because they need to get under the cap. That’s not us.
  7. I’m fine with not having a lot of Forwards in the pipeline. Do people really think this is an issue? We’ve had a bountiful amount of Forwards in our pipeline over the last 5 years. Where has this done for us? I’m sick of relying on 18 years olds. I’m sick of it not blocking kids. If we don’t have a tool in our toolbox, go out a sign a vet. Otherwise, we have too many young players either currently on the team or trying to gain a spot.
  8. That’s our Stanley Cup.
  9. And more recently, JJP. And Kulich was nearly a 2nd rounder, being picked at 28. 2nd rounders are not the garbage people are making them out to be.
  10. The question is, is Norris healthy and recovered from his mystery injury of last season? Do we even know what was wrong with him?
  11. I don’t want to defend Adams, but he sort of assumed JBD would go through the arbitration route instead of signing the 2 x $900k route. But, still, I believe the Sabres have the right to walk away from any arbitration agreement and he would’ve become a FA. Does going to arbitration cost Terry money? I think he just wanted to leave Buffalo.
  12. Definitely. He’s almost certainly considering using Buffalo as leverage to get a bigger contract.
  13. If I were Tim Hortons, I would sue them for defamation.
  14. Agree with this. Every year the Amerks hit the playoffs, we immediately start complaining on how we got beat by a more veteran team. Maybe having the maximum number of skilled players isn’t the way to win. Maybe having a team full of veteran bruisers with a few blue chip prospects is the better way of teaching them how to win.
  15. What the Sabres should do is spin the Sabres Embedded series into a full blown reality TV show. Unedited. Adams just striking out on all these trades and banging his head against the wall. Would be very entertaining.
