  1. But would you spend $45,000 on a $40,000 truck?

    If its the only one like it and I have the money, I'm willing to pay a little more than the next guy. There's only one ROR, and I believe GMTM thinks he's worth the extra cost. I'm not saying its the right move all the time. And yes I know he has overpaid before, I'm just saying that's his mindset. I think GMTM believes every player he goes after gives the sabres the highest percentage possibility of helping the team win the cup and is willing to pay a little more to guarantee he gets him.
  2. People have different types of personalitys. I'm more like TM. Here's an example, when I buy a truck, I can buy a truck for $35000. But the truck I really want is $40000, my personality says if I'm going to spend $35000 I want the truck I want, so I'm going to spend the extra $5000 to get what I want. Some people are happier saving the money but not getting everything they wanted. That's fine too.

     

    I think GMTM says, if I'm going to spend the assets, I want the player I want. He could say I could get 75% of what I want over here for a little less. But I don't think that's his personality. He wants the player he wants and is willing to pay for him. That's fine with me, were already talking playoffs, that's not a bad thing. I can't wait for October!!!

  3. Hi, first time poster here, been a lurker for a long time, yeah I know. I have enjoyed the many debates and have learned a lot from this board. I'm going to defend the long time posters here. A lot of new posters come in with a "something to prove" mentality. Most of you are polite and give them a chance and give good advice. I lived in Buffalo for a few years in the mid 70s as a young kid. We moved south and lost track of the Sabres for a long time. But thanks to satalite the last few years I have been able to watch them all the time now. Its been a rough couple of years but the future is indeed bright.
