So, are they looking for a minority partner type deal? If so, how much can we scrape together as a group Sabrespace? I can throw in 10k.

One person, one voice, has the answer to all our Jack Eichel questions.

"This team needs a players only meeting, everyone in to the room, except you Dylan, we can't afford any more injuries. The rest of you, grab your juice boxes and binky's and get in here".....

There would be a host of questions. Jack Eichel's future with the organization. Short and long range plan in place to deal with salary cap issues. Is there an expansion draft plan in place. Coach Krueger's future with the organization. Have players or players agents cone forth with emphasizing wanting out. Is there talks ongoing about netminder upgrades, and if so, is there a projected time table to address. Reinhart extension is up this off season, where is the relationship between the organization and Reinhart, is he willing to stay. What is the organization's plan with Dahlin both his regressed play and contract. And the list of questions goes on. He may not answer them, but there are a bountiful, nah, a plethora of questions to be asked.

You are aware multiple sports reporter's have been asking our GM for interview time with no response.

Could also be correct.

I do wonder if those going to that first game are just going to walk in, grab their cardboard cutout, and walkout, apologizing profusely to their cardboard cutout all the way home for putting them there.

Still not a word from the GM or ownership. From all appearances I am heavily suspecting there is utter and complete chaos reigning behind closed doors. I cannot imagine any of this is acceptable at any level. I believe multiple roster players will be on their way out the door between the deadline and off season, this cannot continue. It is just brutal torture of the Sabres fan base.

This is true. I don't believe many want Eichel traded, I do believe many are expecting it based on all that has happened in these past years. If the kid wants out, no one here should be surprised or really upset about it. After all, if many of us were miserable at our job every day, we wouldn't hesitate to go somewhere else to work.

We are old lol

Well, in the meantime, I am watching what is most likely Eichel's last season as a Sabres. I don't think Reinhart is going to want to be here either. I believe we are going to be looking at another rebuild of some type. Sadly, the incompetence of ownership via it's management hirings over these past 8 years at least have effectively brought the tear down and rebuild from the ground up strategy a complete and utter failure. I feel for this fan base, and I'm a born and bred one of us, but this is a tragedy for the Sabres faithful that gets even worse as their appears to be no end to the madness that brought us here. Just a complete sad state of affairs for the hockey franchise.

Ouch.

Listened to the Howard show this morning, they all agreed Jack is most likely gone this off season. I tend to agree.

Ralph will give him more games, you know, to "knock the rust off" 🙂

yep This team does not know how to pass. They are terrible at it.

Did I just see Bryson knock over Hutton lol

Well, at least they responded quickly.

CNN, FOX, MSNBC, NEWSMAX and a slew of others both in broadcast and print are not news organizations, they are propaganda arms of the political entities they align with. That is the bottom line truth. Facts have a funny way of not changing, even when the entities spend vast volumes of wealth and time to try and alter the narrative of them.

I would say he is expecting Cozens to be excited to be back in the line up, but, this is Ralph Krueger we are speaking about. He probably does expect the rookie to carry the team.

Skinner would have to agree to waive his NMC. I don't see that happening. He's close to his childhood home, I think we are stuck with that contract for awhile yet.

As I've aged I really do appreciate the finer skill play of hockey. With that said, ya, born and raised in the north towns, it is still nice to see blood and teeth on the ice, swollen knuckles, broken hands and bloodied helmets. What can I say? Your right, entertain me I say, entertain me. 🙂

Ralph plays a role in everything. I hear he canceled the team AA meetings for fear one of the players may actually sober up.

Was approximately 4 weeks ago? Was at the start of the season? Was 4 games ago? Is every game? Every time you buy a lotto ticket? Each time you sit on the toilet? Every morning you wake up? 😛

Very true.

LOL Listening to The Instigators, Rivet and Biron at each others throats over "player styles". You could tell Rivet want's to reach out and choke Marty like a chicken lol. This team even has former team members going at one another, more passion from the Alumni then from the current roster lol.
