If the Sabres end up with #1 after the lottery and don’t take Beniers then Adams speel about what a Sabre is was a complete load of garbage. The kid looks like a bigger, much better skating ROR. Kid competes all over the ice every shift. A lot of the scouting reports compare him to Toews at the same age. Slam dunk pick to me. Wouldn’t be the sexiest 1st OA pick but would have a big impact on the team moving forward.

The problem is Kevyn doesn’t need an assistant GM. He needs someone with more experience to help guide him. A Mike Futa type or a Mike Gillis as Senior Advisor type.

To start the 3 rd period Lindy comes out behind the Sabres bench and Ralph to the NJ bench. Sabretooth removes his head to reveal it is Darcy. The gang is back together in Buffalo!😛

For all the people saying Ralph will survive the season can you imagine 29 more games of this?

They are blowing it all up! Trading all the players not nailed down and bringing in Leaman to build a program from scratch.🤯

“Hey Rod, Kevyn Adams, Buffalo Sabres. Remember when yo ran Jeff Skinner out of town because he didn’t buy in to your system? Well we have him locked up at $9 million for the next 7 years, you want to jump onboard as coach here?” LOL

Leaman was interviewed to take over Rochester but decided to stay in college instead. Leaman is a good coach, has a good track record but bringing him in to this situation would be another mistake. This situation is screaming for a Boudreau. Leaman makes sense if they intend on blowing the whole thing up, trading Eichel and the others, and starting from scratch. But knowing the Pegulas as we do, they will hire Leaman, keep this group together and scratch their heads when they are still in this position 2 years from now.

Someone who can drop the gloves and some size, heart and physicality in the bottom 6. A competent goaltender would do wonders. Move Cozens to C permanently. Bryson, Borgen and Samuelsson should all be in the lineup on the backend.

Sounds to me like Ralph might be tapping out here. Your comment sounds right. Like he is on HNIC panel commenting on the team rather then admitting that his system is a complete and utter failure.

The ONLY way a guy like Leaman makes sense is if they decide to burn the entire thing to the ground and start from scratch. Leaman could build a program like college and guide the young kids.

Don’t you dare do this to me, DON’T YOU DARE!!😛

Marek asks Boudreau what interests him in the NHL these days and Boudreau’s quote is “Uh, I’ll say all the Buffalo games.” Laughter He is saying he is following them closely because an opportunity might pop up soon.

I mean if they keep Ralph on for the season and anyone renews season’s tickets for next year then you are the problem. Hurt the Pegulas where it counts, compromise their lifestyles by not contributing to their wallets. Fans don’t need this sh&t anymore!!

I would like to see them bring in Boudreau. Veteran successful NHL coach on a number of teams. Is known for turning teams around and creating offence. Also from St. Catherine’s. Lets see this team with a quality NHL coach that knows how to utilize players. If the team turns it around, great. If the results are similar then you know the core is rotten and it needs to be blown up.

One suggestion on another board I like best is moving Eichel to the Hawks for Dach and Boqvist. I don’t know if the money would work but if the Hawks still want to go for it with Kane and the core there. Dach would be a big, top centre and Boqvist and Dahlin would be a great pairing. Pipe dream but that would be the type of return I would want if Eichel is moved.

These lower numbers are because they are 1 year deals. The players know that the market is off because of the realities of the pandemic. They are betting on themselves for next year and hoping the market resets itself. I think VO will be one year at a lower number too and then they can look at their next moves: trade a dman, upgrade in net, circle back to Kahun possibly.

So who does your source say we are moving to Chicago for a disgruntled Patrick Kane?😜

Huh? 2 guys play on NYI, one on Det

So good old Sabresbuzz has suggested a Reinhart and Risto for Laine trade. I am leaving it here for discussion purposes. Although Hall Eichel Laine line would be all the entertainment value.😜

Hamilton also went on a tangent about how ROR wasn’t the leader he thought he was so I have no idea what has been going on with him and his views on players.

Can Gaudreau play RW? 😀

https://mobile.twitter.com/pham1717/status/1316566150189404167 Paul Hamilton stating Reinhart has a bad attitude. It is Hamilton though.

Try to find a team that wants Risto for a high pick and Miller for like a 3rd rounder. call St. Louis. They have no cap space and Dunn is an RFA. Trade a futures package for Dunn. call Arizona and offer a package of picks and prospects for Kuemper. Dahlin Montour Dunn Jokiharu McCabe Borgen is much more balanced and Kuemper/Ullmark is a huge upgrade in net. These moves would set them up to contend this year for a playoff run.

Hall said he played golf with Skinner the other week and they workout together. Skinner is thrilled if anything.
