I have a friend that 'knows' people with the Sabres. Apparently when RK was fired and Granato took over, the Sabres asked Jack, who was in Florida at the time, to come back to Buffalo to show support and give good PR to be around the team. He said no, at that point, they decided he's a goner.

"There was a substantial offer made to him," said Quinn, who acknowledged making two recent proposals to the Drury camp. "We made it perfectly clear that we were prepared to meet the financial. They never once countered. They did not want to give us a number and ultimately said they didn't want to come back. They wanted to go to New York." I thought they had an agreement. I was wrong.

According to the Sabres team president at the time, that's what happened.

No surprise from the guy that backed out of a handshake deal with the Sabres on a new contract.

Don't bother rooting for losses, this team is designed to lose right now anyway. We don't have a top line that competes with other teams top lines. And no goalie. No top 2 defense that can shutdown other teams. It's a mess.

Call it what you want, but as this team stands today, and it doesn't look to get any better, we will be a very bad team. You have to look at our division, 26 games ?, the rest of the conference, (24 more), how many of those games do we win against Tampa, Toronto, Pitt, Washington, Islanders.... Tank or not, it's the same effect. We will finish at or very near the bottom next season. We still have no NHL quality goalie on the roster.

It was a joke

Well of course, that goes without saying.

This is interesting to me because I have not heard him say anything remotely like this during the whole saga. I always felt Jack was gone because the team wouldn't make a verbal commitment to him. I'm reaching, because I don't want to trade him, but this could mean a lot.
-
I think this is less a tank, but more a total rebuild. Same effect, but I don't think we are looking for a savior in next years draft. This wouldn't be so bad if we hadn't been so awful the last 10 seasons.
-
If they're going to tank, not addressing the goaltending issue is a great way to accomplish it.

The Poltapov cocktail! Start printing the shirts.

Sundin, Backstrom, Alfredson, Nylander, Filip Forsberg... Rasmus Dahlin -
right now we have nothing, so we need to find a lot.

We can't go into next season with Tokarski as our backup. We need to massively upgrade

I thought those deals included the first round pick... I know a lot of rumors were out there.
