Do You Like The JJP for Kesselring/Doan Trade RIGHT NOW?
Thorny replied to bob_sauve28's topic in The Aud Club
You told me you’d redo it if given the option no more than a couple hours ago haha So you’d redo the trade, wipe it from the record, but consider it, right now, a trade you like. Do I have that right? -
Do You Like The JJP for Kesselring/Doan Trade RIGHT NOW?
Thorny replied to bob_sauve28's topic in The Aud Club
If you ran this poll yesterday afternoon and asked if you’d be ok with that return how do we think the poll results read differently right now? be honest Consensus good deal? Like the poll says right now? Right now the poll shows overwhelming win for Adams. -
It’s true. The more time passes the more the sabres are always revealed to have been in the right. They just have to calm down and analyze what actually happened. The results always speak well - most of the time the fans are just too stupid to realize our GM *has* assembled another team capable of amounting to 78 points and there’s nothing to worry about

Like I get I am exaggerating in that plenty were questioning it, but a TON liked it and a lot of those people REALLY liked it. I hate this weird default that all the fans that are unhappy with the team are disingenuous losers who are just pretending to be mad for clout. Why would I/we praise the Savoie trade then? We weren’t hesitant to praise Adams when we THOUGHT he was doing something in the name of winning - why does the argument exist we’d be unhappy still if we actually did win? It’s nonsensical and I just proved it He and others just want to see the fans as an irrationally angry monolith that has no right to be angry cause they couldn’t do better (than professionals) anyway and they are just lying about wanting the base minimum success, and complain just to complain, who complain just because “it makes sense to assume the worst with the sabres” as I SO often see mentioned here by a lot of people no - we aren’t assuming the worst, the transactions and practices have certain patterns we pick up on a pick for player broke trend - praise if we don’t trade Byram for an underutilized shoot first forward with upside I’ll be happy

Chad D: expect a Byram trade at or around the draft
Thorny replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
It will be a guy with the upside to do that and it will be a shoot first player 30-30 potential 25-20 current -
Where are we scheduled to take the steal of the draft again? What’s our number?

I think he has strong underlyings tbh. -
We only traded Riley Boychuk for Tallinder
-
One of the best and greatest values is that when you have a player drafted first overall they provide such a value to their pair you can expend assets elsewhere. What we did however is trade our best left winger and most valuable trade asset to supplement that pick’s pair

Thorny replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
I saw it mentioned just as a theory by a good sabres twitter source that Bolduc would be the guy we get from STL for Byram and I honestly can’t unsee it now. It’s the exact Adams F add My money is on that shoot first, quick, ratio of 19 goals to 17 assists..this is going to be our guy -
