Flashsabre

I’ve decided I’m going to watch this game as Game One of a first round Playoff series.😁. It’s the closest Inwill come to watching a Sabres playoff game for a while. Krebs with a good start setting the tone for the series PP clicking will be crucial this series.😛

-GM -Coaching staff players are secondary to me until that mess is cleaned up

How? They don’t even do real searches to interview outside candidates for positions.

For me it’s not about Ruff being a good POHO, it’s about the reality of the situation. Pegula is owner and he wants someone he trusts to communicate with. To “feel heard”. Right now the two people communicating with him are Adams and Ruff. I want Adams gone so Ruff is the lesser of two evils. Push Ruff upstairs, hire a successful seasoned GM that can work with Ruff. Ruff’s job is to talk to Terry

Just a ton of National negative media about the Sabres lately. Good

Terry is not firing Lindy. Many reports that the two are friends. This is a way to get rid of Adams. Im not advocating making him GM. I’m saying let him move upstairs, hire a seasoned GM, let him build the team and let Lindy be the voice in the office that communicates with Terry. Lindy had NJ 3rd OA is the league the one year. The goaltending killed them his final year there. He has not had a good year here it he wasn’t given a chance to build a staff. I would rather him upstairs at this point and give a younger but seasoned coach a shot.

Fire Adams, put Ruff in the front office. Hire a seasoned GM to work with Ruff. Ruff communicates with Terry.

This is an absolutely terrible mock draft. Thanks for sharing it.

That was fun. Great to see the kids in the crowd enjoying themselves and getting a great memory. I thought Jack was little too smug there with what he thought was the game winner. Glad the Sabres took it away from him. I always enjoy Kozak’s effort when he comes up. Hopefully Kulich is OK. Good on Krebs to jump in.

Yeah that’s a great point that really has to have the organization worried. Lets just hope if ST sales tank that they just don’t blame that instead of the putrid product on the ice

Östlund keeps on rolling which is great. He has bulked up and has really taken off as the 1C in Rochester. He has the exact skill set they are in desperate need of. Unfortunately he’s not ready to step in next year and be that player in the NHL yet. Rosen has really made Rochester go. He is their go to forward. He is NHL ready next year but what do they do? Trade another body to make room or trade Rosen to bring in another piece. Brannstrom is an AHL superstar. I think at worst next year he is Buffalo’s 7th dman but can probably play in the lineup Levi has gone through a bit of a rough patch but that’s part of development. He bounced back last night to shut the door down the stretch. Novikov and Komarov played together finally as the Russian twin towers. Wahlberg continues to chug along. He has a unique size-skill combo the Sabres desperately need. Helenuis is holding his own as an 18 year old in the AHL. No. Hagel was a unique example of incompetence on Botts part.

I think both Marjala and Miedama should be signed. Marjala is like Östlund in that he is slight but very talented and the Sabres are desperate for good setup men in their system. Miedama has the size, grit they don’t have in so many prospects up front. Neither may turnout to be more than AHL players but finding the next Brett Murray is important to keep the farm team competitive while kids develop.

Tage scores, Dahlin competes, Sabres lose. Rinse, Repeat

Yikes. Special teams, team defence and in turn goaltending are killing this team. I wonder if spending on a quality coaching staff makes any difference🤪

The agents are saying no one thinks Adams is capable and that Terry needs to put someone respected in charge and let them spend to help the team.

Hey if you could get a great package of 2-3 pieces that helps the team next year I would be all for it. i just think Schaefer is a great young player but I fully understand people’s frustration with the LHD at the top of the draft situation. Actually Buffalo would be in a great spot to trade the pick. They have enough young talent waiting in the wings. But it would have to be something that sets them up really well to compete next season and beyond. I wouldn’t want a pick back in the package. Just impact players ready to help now.

You are right but Fabbeo was out on waivers because they couldn’t find a trade for him and waivers was a last resort. Adams had a chance to throw a late pick at them for Fabbro but couldn’t be bothered.

No point engaging you anymore on this as you are making stuff up to fit your narrative. Have a feeling you really haven’t watched the prospects too much. I guess all the scouts and experts are wrong. -Schaefer is not similarity ranked to Misa or Martone - you wouldn’t be selling Power for Pennies on the dollar. The chance of them getting the first pick are slim anyways. You will get your wish of picking a forward who will be a couple years from contributing anyways (as would Schaefer)

Yikes Also Bills bringing back Dane Jackson

Taking lesser players is the way you fail. You don’t avoid the best player because you took Power and it didn’t work out the way you wanted so far. You take the best player and move other pieces to get what you need to improve the team. I won’t draft Josh Allen because we drafted EJ Manuel and he wasn’t good. Another big, right handed throwing QB. Pass

If it’s Norris’ shoulder I’m going to die laughing. You can’t make it up. But hey Terry trusts Adams so we’re good

I don’t think anyone from this draft is ready to step in next year to the NHL. Misa’s skating could let him stick but I don’t think it would be best for him and the others need more time for sure.

For those of you that haven’t followed the draft or prospects this year Schaefer is the unanimous number one pick. 6’2 LHD that skates like Bobby Orr. He will be physical and his skating is sublime. It allows him to play all over the ice. He is a Makar like player. IF the Sabres won the lottery you pick him no questions asked. You use your other dmen not named Dahlin to acquire offensive talent. IF the Sabres are picking 2-4 then Misa, Hagens or Martone are there up front. Always take the best player at the top of the draft and Schaefer is the unanimous number 1 pick. So sad we are still having these conversations year after year after year. Hopefully they aren’t picking this high again.

Adams: “I’ll be shitcanned at the end of the season Rasmus”😁

The most frustrating part is there were so many opportunities to find the type of dman that the Sabres desperately needed be it waivers or trade opportunities. Fabbro, Marino, Kovacevic. Adams didn’t even try
