Yes. Adams on wgr said hockey Canada wanted Benson and Adams told them no.
Of course Canada wants the best players they can get, but it doesn’t matter what they want. Did our FO ask what Benson wanted?
Edit: another thought. Maybe Benson wanted to stay with the Sabres (who knows?), but didn’t want his country knowing he declined, so he let KA be the big meany.
-
Do we have any reliable sources that Benson was told he could not go? Or that it was never offered to him by the FO?
-
Can we play the Rangers, Golden Knights, Bruins, or Laughs every night?

I’m not going to join this parade. Outside of Dahlin, every 23 year-old defenseman should look like poop. This is why I’m not getting down on Power either. In the past 5 years, even Dahlin played some very miserable games. Package that up with the whole team sucking right now. Besides JJP, every player has regressed, but especially the defense.

But every modern Goathead game was a home game.
Oh. Didn’t know that.

Standard recovery for achilles repair is 6 months (26 weeks). He's at 24 weeks 5 days.
I have no medical training nor any specific reason to doubt the Sabres team of medical professionals....
I'm simply pointing out that his return, IMO, is sooner than expected and I hope he doesn't re-injure it as a result, ala Pacioretty who re-tore his at 23 weeks post-op.
But you wrote you would’ve liked him to sit until “Feb at the earliest”. So, given he is 24 weeks 5 days and average is 26 weeks, why would you want him to sit for 31 weeks 0 days “at the earliest”? Sitting until after New Year is debatable, but February is nowhere near anyone’s timelines.

Anyone else watch the post game? Devon, who I will give the benefit of the doubt, definitely talked about Rochester as if he wasn’t going back. Probably not intended but…
Good. Maybe he’s aware that he controls his destiny and he needs to be playing better. Last night was a start.

Beware the Beniers effect
That was his name right? The guy who had 2g and then nothing?
True. Even Stillman looked pretty good for his first few games. Then the coaching of his previous team wore off and he began playing Sabres hockey.

Thank g-d I’m going to see Annie tonight at the Fox Threatre. At least it will have a happy ending.
Reminds me of this debacle:

But in this case, it’s Annie and not Heidi and you would rather see them than watch the Sabres.

I saw it live on Tsn yesterday. He said the Sabres are open for business and have interest in adding a F, but that because of players due to return from injuries, it’s “not an intense” search.
Someone said it in the Kane thread I believe. But this sounds like masterclass Adams. Leak something out there that signals we are looking to improve, but put a “not an intense” clause in there as an out because everyone knows it’s not going to happen. But, in case anyone missed it, he tried!

This, I believe, is the correct take. He wanted to be here, Buffalo offered the most money, and he chose someone the Sabres are competing with.
But one of these statements is inconsistent with the others. I don’t understand how these 3 statements can be all true.

No - they need winning veterans who have been there done that. EJ 6 is only a start (Oakie & Z vets, but w Sabres….)
Oakie has got to go. He’s a millennial Dad. We need a 1950’s Dad. He’s more acting like a big brother. We need someone to give these kids a kick in the rear. And, while I thank him for his service, Z can go as well. And I don’t want them replaced with Kulich/Rosen/Oslund types. I want mean SOBs. And while we’re at it, maybe package one of them them with Matthias for a mean SOB defensemen. We have a bunch of pussies on D.

I don’t understand why was are paying so much money on defense with very little results.
-
After the Blackhawks coverup and associated non-apology, this league has an image problem. They should be doing more to deter such behavior.

It’s not like Tage was lighting it up. Put Mitts on the top line like we did at the end of last season. Be prepared to give him a large contract due to this move.

HE HAD A PARTIALLY DISLOCATED SHOULDER WHEN HE COULDN'T DO A SINGLE PULLUP. Does no one remember that?
If I were Adams, I wouldn’t give him one hot penny until he can get down to the gym and give me 2 pull ups. And I want him to go all the way up, not that cheating stuff.

I think a better idea would be a Trade with Toronto to make EDM East. Would Draisatl + McD for Matthews + Marner be good enough?

Why wouldn't he go to toronto that's his dream?
And he has the leverage.
But wasn’t he a Sabres fan growing up?

None on that list (other than Bowman) has won the cup with 2 different teams.
It is wild. And it looks like the NHL has only one in Scotty Bowman. So, why is this?
I don’t think a SC or SB win precludes the coach from winning with another team, it’s just that such coaches are usually kept. I’m sure if a SB/SC winning coach was forced to coach for a different team once winning one, he’d likely win another one. But, usually these coaches, who are heavily dependent on their QB (see Belicheck) and stick with them until they are done (see Belicheck). Plus, coaching 2 different HOF QBs in their primes is very unusual.

I love the spirit of Cozens... As someone who has fought plenty (those days are over now, I got it all out of the way when I was younger lol) I can tell you this, you will always run into someone, somewhere who is a better fighter than yourself and you're going to get rocked... PERIOD. The fact that he took the fight probably knowing full well it might not end well is a testament to his toughness it just sucks that it cost him some games but this will make him tougher, to be the best you have to beat the best. This kid is by far my favorite Sabre right now!
I get the spirit. Love seeing it in a player. However, his actions are hurting his team. It’s best he heals up quickly and gets back on the ice. Next time, he should check himself before he wreaks himself.

I hope this makes a point. Another drubbing, waiver another one. Looks like KA is losing patience.
