  1. It’s dumb how there was no penalties all game, like they didn’t stop taking them in the 6th game lol. NHL officiating is so weird. but, fun to see the Canadian drought continue. Florida is a wagon - - - Gotta be Bennett for Smythe
  2. ^There’s one (see emoji reaction)
  3. Ya he’s a mofo
  4. Eichel, Reinhart, O’Reilly, Peterka were floating through my head when I typed it out
  5. The sabres don’t seem to negotiate or convince when a player has concerns it sounds like they just give up errrrr revert to “we only want players who want to be here.”
  6. A player we’d have an excuse not to pony up the cash for, you say? He also looks 70 And is 27 It’s like a mirror image haha
  7. Depends what the return is. If we deal JJ and Byram for futures Norris will be promoted as the big offseason addition as predicted and the transformation is minimal could also easily end up with a situation where we’ve bridged JJ, dealt Byram for a depth vet D and a high pick, and “added” Norris. Again, minimal transformation If we deal Peterka for a Peterka level player and Byram for a concept of Byram level player we can talk
  8. Take the full day. Screw the man. Also, always go to the bathroom on company time
  9. “But will they perform in the playoffs?” is a spit out your drink level hilarious question to ask as a sabres fan at this time, I agree. Just get there lay the first brick
  10. True but far less risky than no serious move at all Ya Vegas was only missing a 1C but they still traded for their best player. And more importantly - they were missing a 1C re: being the cup favourite. You aren’t making an analogous comp here cause we are only looking for pieces to scratch 16/32. Add the best players you can
  11. Making the playoffs is a year over year enterprise The average time spent out of the playoffs is one year. Being “years away” is a job security sales tactic, im sort of surprised more don’t realize that by now. Long rebuilds aren’t actually a thing - that’s nhl ea sports GM mode fodder. The nhl is a professional league not developmental: no one should fall for that. The few and far between “decade long” rebuilds we’ve seen are the exceptions that prove the rule - another term that should be frankly more familiar they Sabres haven’t made the playoffs because they haven’t chosen to. They’ve yet to make it the priority. people get there’s an active conflict of interest with the fans, right? The organization hasn’t had the same goals trading Dahlin only helps if you trade him for better players. And it only helps even then if you don’t care about, ya know…..THE most precious resource known to mankind in Time
