Has anyone closely followed the Sabres Russian pipeline? Initial research says 4 of 6 Russian prospects are currently in the AHL. Maybe @inkman or others who’ve followed the Amerks closely can chime in. LG or others can chime in on the 2 that are still overseas? looking to know how they’re progressing and if we can expect to see any in the line up in a season or 2. Thanks in advance for input.

How many pull ups can he do?

LG, apply

I have a basement he can move in to. A modest 5k a month for him. I’ll even throw in a backyard hockey pond, as long as he foots the quarterly water bill. oh, and I’ll expect him to use the laundry mat down the road a mile or so.

Land it would have looked great had he not ate the crayons.

Yes, trade the dam pick.

Don’t care where we fell on the draft board for 1st rd. Trade the pick to better the team if a deal is there. Trade a prospect or 2 to better the team if a deal is there. Fir the love of the hockey gods, just better the team for next season!!!!!

Wasn’t Hollins a member of that worst in the league separation group? Just sayin…..

Terrible trade, for a guy overwhelmingly projected to go mid 3rd. Why on earth would you give up 2 late 2nd round assets? We have three 5h rounders and two 6ths we could have moved up the board multiple moves. And the player selected isn’t even considered beyond a 1 technique player? WTF? Make it make sense.

Trade up if the talent and deal are there.

Don’t care about the draft position. Win, win and we n some more, that’s what I care about. Winning should be the standard, not draft position. GO SABRES!!!

Most likely outcome to be honest. What fans are left, especially amongst the young, are most certainly numb to this ending to Sabres seasons by now, it’s been so long an entire generation is not merely apathetic, they’re most likely fans of other teams, and can anyone truly blame them if that is the case? I can’t.

Rogers Media should buy it out right, it’s the Maple Leafs second home arena already anyways.

ROR’s internal defeat as a premier player in his prime at the time. That more than any other event from the tank is permanently etched in my Sabres fan mind. To myself in any event, it was not only the bi-product of the first build out from the tank, but it appeared to linger, the mindset, the culture, long after his departure. His comment of losing his love for the game was the billboard poster statement of the tank imho.

We already have two 1st over alls on the roster and nothing has changed. The draft position myth is over, 1 more top 5 isn’t going to matter. Veterans, that will make a difference.

I haven’t seen D that tight since the chastity belt line up on prom night back in 88.

Benson is that type to get better and better as he moves through his young yrs in to his prime,. I can see him as a Breire.

This organization has a very real problem with destroying young, unprepared, talented players by throwing them in to the parent clubs disaster. Let the kids develop without being subjected to this sideshow bob circus already Kevyn. You’ve done more than enough damage, why torture another round of this organizations future?

There is no reason to. Address the defensemen deficiencies, sign and/or trade for what veteran presence defense and forward ranks with consistent 60 minute game play in mind. The team is young, lacks that veteran presence. Zucker and Greenway are a start, get 3 or 4 more. Offensive ability isn’t lacking, defensive play and consistency are imho.

More in the line of Pens stars are old, slower, their supporting cast of players are bad as well. i say our boys itch their balloon knots then shove their fingers up every pens players nostrils. Consider it payback for years of Crosby torture.

Playoff team, non playoff team, I don’t care. It’s always a feel good moment to stomp our skates all over Crosby’s dick. GO SABRES!!!!

He’s not wrong. Zucker and Greenway are good examples. The problem isn’t the strategy concept, the problem is in its implementation. It’s abundantly clear the desire to win here hasn’t taken hold the way Adams speaks on it, and that failure is on him as much as it is on the youth of the players the attempted culture establishment is for. There appears to be a disconnect between the reality of the time frame, both for Adam’s and the fan base. While it’s true fans have absorbed a great deal of organizational product abuse, it’s also true that Adam’s has had more than ample time to address this. His prolonged time line has only further damaged the brand to the fans imo. To myself in any event, and maybe others, this strategy timeline is a failure and I am in the LGR camp, where it shows incompetence even to the casual fans at this point. just my view is all. Have a great day and Go Sabres against the Pens tonight!!!

What difference would a top 4 pick make? They have 2, I kid you not, 2 first over alls on the current roster and the team is still ass. draft pick location isn’t going to help this, that’s already factually been proven.

This could get very ugly very quickly.
