Ya it looks like I'm in the minority here. It isn't exactly John's fault I suppose. But to have 'suffered' through the tank years to watch Reinhart get traded for a song and watch the captain of this once proud franchise hanging in a private box with half the Bruins roster considering everything that is going on with his situation? I guess I'm just bitter. Maybe my bitterness shouldn't be directed at John but we as fans have suffered through 10+ years of misery now so sorry if I'm not going to kiss John's ass now.

Why didn't you just get ESPN+? Way cheaper and cancellable every month.

And here my 6 year old son overheard Eichel talk this weekend and asked dad why Jack Eichel is no longer going to be a sabre.
Can’t stand what this franchise has become. Already regretting buying the centre ice package.

Remember the good ol days when we actually cared about this and were pissed when the sabres wouldn’t stream it?

Because his behavior is not what a captain should be doing. I want more qualities besides talented and point producing in a captain
Another example would be joe Thornton. But I think they are the exceptions.
Didn’t this happen to Ovie as well? Then went on to win the cup.

I’m sorry about that. It happens to someone every year. I generated the random order once and that’s what it gave.
I trust you SDS. If this was wildcard we would be looking at bringing in officials NHL style to oversee the lottery😉

In 2 leagues this year. In the 8 team league had the 7th pick and in this 1 was right ahead of you. Grrrr.
Going to be tough to overcome. I still can't believe I've never made the playoffs in this league....

This was a good idea. There's nothing to be gained by waiting and this lets people prepare.
I was just pissed I had to pick last 😉

Yahoo gives you a choice. It can be randomized 30 minutes before the game or you can tell them to randomize it now and let people prepare. No one seemed to push back about the order so I did it this morning.
Ok thanks

Some updates from John Hoven, who has some insight into So Cal Hockey.
The Ducks were ready to make a hockey trade with the Sabres for Jack. Two roster players plus a pick were offered, one which was John Gibson, the Sabres said no.
The Ducks remain interested in Jack, but want the the price to come down. They also have no appetite to include Zegras and now it appears Drysdale and McTavish are off limits.
Good luck with that Anaheim
Good ***** luck with that then. Let a division rival trade for him and the Ducks can continue to suck.

We have a ballpark draft date in mind? My traveling schedule for youth hockey has started and I'd like to know when I'm needed to be available quasi sober. No pressure. 🙂
Now why on earth would you have to be sober for the draft 😉

Adam’s doesn’t deserve a lick of credit unless and until he can pull off an acceptable trade for Jack and turn this ***** franchise around.

From David Pagnotta.
He mentions the Sabres might be willing to retain some salary to get the return they want.
Mike Russo of the Athletic mentioned the Wild might be inclined to jump back in if Eichel’s AAV was lower.
If Boldy, Rossi and two firsts are the return, Boldy will be on his ELC for two more years and Rossi will be on His for three. The Two First Rounders would still be on their ELCs when Eichel’s Deal Expires. With Eichel having five years left that’s essentially only two seasons of having to be concerned about the retained money, which would probably be around 2 to 2.5 Million. The downside is the Sabres(Yeah right) might be a legitimate cup contender in 4-5 years and need that extra space.
That being said, if that’s the best deal on the table and they land bonafide Top Line Prospects in Boldy and Rossi I would make the deal.
If they can get both Boldy and Rossi and 2 firsts, and the Pegulas are willing to pay some of the contract, I think this trade would be in the best interest of the Buffalo Sabres. Sure seems like the return will never be better.

If this thread was rumors and speculation, it would be somewhat acceptable. The fantasy trades and reactions to them make this thread unbearable and useless.
Yet you keep coming back 😉

The Sabres have 11 Games scheduled after the Frozen Four Championship in Boston.
They can offer both Power and Portillo the opportunity to burn a year off of their ELCs and get some games in.
Ideally offering ATOs for the remainder of the season in Rochester with ELCs starting in 2022-23 would be the best case scenario for the Sabres after they complete their college season.
Why would the Sabres burn a year of their ELC?

What in the hell happened to Monahan? I dont' want Flames games at all but he was a great C prospect coming into the league a few years ago. I take it he has disappointed thus far?
