Agreed. Coupled with a GM over his head and every potential contender will be circling KA like sharks that smell a wounded animal in the water.

Jack has to be moved out west. If you have an ounce of a plan to ever win the Cup, keeping him in the East is not a good idea.

The jettison of all the rebuild players and starting over might be rock bottom. Or they screw up the trades, which is likely, and rock bottom is still elusive.

Would make perfect sense.

TP needs to sell the team. This 100% is all on him. He has persistently put terrible people in charge even if the rumors of his interference are not true. 11 year playoff drought is unprecedented which looks inevitable.

Good luck selling tix next year and the indefinite future. Who in their right mind would want season tix for this crapfest?

Yeah, if this is the case, our front office is worse than imaginable. We are heading into unchartered territory for dysfunctional NHL franchises. This team might be permanently bad indefinitely. Word travels quick in the small world of hockey... no top talent will ever want to come here like this. TP has ruined the Sabres brand despite what has happened with the Bills. Just the facts.

We are about to hand someone an elite center and probably turn them into an instant Cup contender just like St Louis, solely because of how dysfunctional we are. Depressing.

I am almost 50 and this is the most depressing moment in Buffalo sports for the sheer scope of it. Something is extremely unhealthy at the top and the culture of this franchise. For Jack to feel disrespected in his injury handling is extremely telling and beyond disturbing. Wide right, Hull in the crease, Briere/Drury leaving... is not the same as this. Very hopeless feeling for the future of this team.

Eichel is a goner

Next year we set the record of all time playoff drought. If this off-season is mishandled yet again, which I have no faith in a completely unqualified scout, we could be looking at a perpetual extension of that record indefinitely. From my armchair perspective, Gallant has a track record of one year turn arounds. If I’m the owner I’m ringing his phone. This all can be fixed with the right people in charge.

Will the last player out the door please turn off the lights?

Almost the same compared to Austin Matthews as well.

To trade Eichel we need to get a Lafontaine in return. You don’t trade franchise centers just going into their prime without getting something similar in return. Kakko, 2 D prospects, and a first round is a loss for us.

For me: Gallant or bust for summer of 2021. What a terrible end for RJ, a shutout. An ironic and sad ending ending for one of the historically great announcers.

It pays to go to the net.

Matthews should be 2 or 3. He’s out if this world good.

Dead last 4 out of the last 8 years. We put the L in Losers.

It seems we are years from being competitive let alone playoffs. This franchise is one of the worst in all of sports.

Sweet mother of god this is bad

Well we are officially the worst team in the NHL for 2021.

This is us vs an offensive powerhouse.

Get Houser out of there

Carter might score 6

a Sabres loss or 1 more point by the Ducks and we have last place locked up which means a guarantee top 3 pick.
