  1. I like some of the prospects, but #1 OA? Sus.
  2. can't do tues, wed works tho
  3. Adams doesn't control what offers are coming in. The worst thing he could do is panic sell because some imaginary clock is ticking down to zero. His patience will be rewarded.
  4. 1 - Outdoor games have lost their appeal IMO. It just feels so gimmicky at this point. Pace of play is slow, ice is bad, etc... do 1 game a year in a cold weather location out in the wilderness and be done with it. 2 - Hamilton in March? Really? What could go wrong... SMH. 3 - This feels like gimmick to sell tickets in Buffalo as the product won't be NHL caliber. "Oh, you'd like to go to the outdoor game? Great! Just buy this 20-pack and we'll include the option to purchase a ticket for the outdoor game :)"
  5. I'm not buying this. They're speculating. Of course Fish is going to build a strategy around what Jack wants. Doesn't mean he's a puppet. That's what agents do, they build a plan based on the players input. Hamilton? Joke.
  6. Same. It will happen eventually, but this season was never about winning anyway.
  7. Agree 1000%. The Sabres plan is build from within, through the draft with players who want to be here. This releases any stranglehold the agent community had over the franchise ("buffalo tax", etc...). The days of getting bullied by agents/players is over.
  8. I'm not sure this gets settled anytime soon.... but with each passing day I'm gaining more respect for KA. He's showing some serious backbone, feeling more and more comfortable with him as GM moving forward.
  9. Outdoor game in southern Ontario in March? Sus.
  10. KA has earned my respect. My concern, knowing him personally, was that he would cave. He hasn't. Well done KA. Stay strong.
  11. Buffalo only pays if their doctor's are onboard.
  12. Agent contracts are not guaranteed. Meaning if you fire your agent, that's it... they're cut off moving forward. That said, I'm not privy to the precise language of Fish's contract. I've heard cases, notably with larger contracts, of agent buyout clauses. Wether or not Jack had to pay him out, again depends on the language in the contract.
  13. This move might explain the emoji he tweeted out not too long ago. Dissatisfied customer.
  14. Would love to listen on KA's first conversation with Brisson.
  15. Once the paperwork is submitted, absolutely.
  16. He's grasping at straws. A sign of desperation perhaps? After their latest meeting with Sabres brass, I'd reckon Peter Fish is advising him to hold off on surgery as the disc is in fact healing on it's own, albeit slowly. His impatient young client disagrees.
  17. 20 years ago (sans social media)... the vaccination rates would probably be much higher
  18. these russians are not first round picks, chances they even play 1 NHL game are 50/50 at best..... counting on them to be primary contributors is mis-guided
  19. semantics they're $8m under the cap floor..... BY CHOICE tank-a-palooza
  20. his health is improving 👀
