Let’s not forget 3rd most points as an 18 year old. He’s just been trapped in a trash organization. In Vegas, NYI, Nashville, or Minny he’d be on an elite level trajectory.

The bottom line is KA took us to the basement of the league in his first year. He can’t do that again. There needs to be a major improvement.

Imagine what the season ticket sales will be.

The NHL, from a business side, can't be happy when their best young player is stuck in a dead end franchise and they cannot market him in June. People like to watch generational payers win championships.

McDavid to the golf course very quickly.

No thanks. No way should he go to our division or the East for that matter.

Gallant, imo, should of been the obvious choice. Should of been handed the reigns as soon as RK was removed. We didn’t need a coaching search with a coach of that caliber available. The Rangers will be in the playoffs next year with Gallant. Drury knows what he’s doing. We are always a step behind.

Penoras Pizza in Depew is pretty darn good. Love the burnt edges of the pepperoni.

81 points in 78 games in 07-08... he had a decent run for for several years. It was sad to hear him talk about how in his early career his teams went on a lot of runs and would never sniff the finals again the rest of his career.

It shows very clearly how completely dysfunctional the Sabres are imo.

Colorado is a team I wish we were, but probably will never be. That team is scary good.

The problem is the existence of aliens has yet to be established. But we do know humans are pretty smart and have invented some amazing things, like splitting the atom. All it would take is someone breaking through to harness electromagnetic energy and boom... that would also explain the relatively small size of the objects. Therefore logically, our best explanation might be human caused. Or it could be an elaborate hoax. A few alternatives to consider.

Maybe Russians, Chinese, or likely our own people have leapfrogged in technology and regularly test it on our conventional military assets (which makes the most sense). They have been at this stuff nonstop since WW2. If somebody had a breakthrough in electromagnetic energy it would happen rather quick after that. I doubt ET is flying interdimensionally in a tiny craft that happens to be typical drone sized. If someone from WW1 era saw a B-2 they would swear it was aliens.

I guess new management tried bucking the trend. I can’t see Quinn turning into the better player. Hope I’m wrong.

The only saving grace is if our new assistant GM makes sure we maximize value for these trades. We need a Byfield in return just to start or we are not talking.

And Drury won’t play games in the search like we are. Adam’s had a head start and seemingly did nothing. You can’t wait too long because others need coaches too.

Just seen this. He was interestingly non-committal as well when asked of future contract and dodged the Jack Eichel question. Interesting “read between the lines” take on RK vs The Don.

Add Dahlin to the list who was noncommittal about a future contract as well.

Maybe Karmanos, being the first real "adult" in the room in a long time, will make sure Adams does not get completely ripped off in the upcoming trades.

This is madness. The 21st century has not been kind to Buffalo. A revolving door of horrendous and incompetent front offices and this is what you get: A fully entrenched losing and dysfunctional culture that is now unprecedented.

I guess R2 and Asplund have earned spots with the big club next year.

Oh I expect to got our a$$ handed to us this trade (and Sam). Can’t wait to see the advertisement for season tickets. It will be entertaining. Watching the Sabres skate to 65 points next year will not.

If I’m Jack, Sam, etc... there is NO WAY I’d want to stay here. Who would? The people that pay the price ultimately is the average Sabre fan. The rest of them (both management and players) are making 7 figures. It’s a nice consolation prize for sucking.

I’d through the checkbook and the keys at Gallant. We have an established dysfunctional losing culture. Possibly the worst ever in the NHL. You need someone like Gallant who is skilled at quick turnarounds.

Should of drafted Rossi last year as well. Big mistake.
