To this point, everyone in the league understands that Buffalo is once again dealing from a position of weakness....so GMKA won't get much in return if he does try to move Byrum via trade. The amount of low ball offers will be numerous and Howdy Doody will have to take the best of the crap any team will offer.

Great, so he’s too busy or distracted to worry about having the most unsuccessful team in the NHL. Maybe he should hire a POHO to run things so he can focus on his other priorities…..oh wait, he doesn’t trust anybody else and wants to make sure he’s being heard…..nevermind.

Because Terry Pegula does not care about winning.

How would you retool this team this summer?
Carmel Corn replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
The combined TP and GMKA tandom will ensure the continuation of a weak, gutless and underachieving hockey team. Neither has a clue on how to properly construct a roster that can even make the playoffs, let alone actually win in the playoffs. -
2016 in particular makes me want to throw up. Nylander & Asplund (trade up) were a complete waste of draft capital. Add to that the fact we drafted Hagel and then never signed hm rubs more salt into the wound.

I'd keep Power (vs. Byrum) IF they get a legit stay at home RH defender to partner with Power. If they refuse, then trade either Power or Byrum to get a legit 1C or 2C. I get it that Byrum alone won't fetch that return by himself, so picks and/or prospects needed to be included. I know there are many who feel the Sabres score enough goals, but I think they are still lacking a playmaking center who can control play and make zone entries on the powerplay. IMHO - our powerplay will suck until they can add that type of player to the team. -
We all know TP and GMKA have their heads up their a$$e$, but if they just watched even a game or two of these playoffs, how can they not understand this team isn’t remotely close to being built for the playoffs? Unfortunately, I am feeling more convinced that they don’t want to build a team capable of succeeding in the playoffs….but rather a team of soft players who lacks guts and physicality.

Anonymous players spill on what went wrong this year
Carmel Corn replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
I wonder if the other players resented Benson being there simply because he plays with heart and guts, unlike the majority of other older and bigger players already there. The young little scrappy kid embarrassed the rest of the roster by doing the heavy lifting that others should have (but didn’t). -

On a different note, I am surprised that Ruff let Appert, Wilford, etc. serve as his assistants. Once again following Adams. -
Who the F cares if a guy like Bryson is “liked” in the locker room!!! I want a responsible GM to focus on the high priorities vs. worrying about extending a filler 7 or 8 reserve defender…who isn’t very good at playing defense. Geez Kevyn…were you really worried about losing Bryson to another team?!?! What a F’in idiot!
-
There’s virtually nothing I’ve heard Adams say today that is different than what I remember from last year. Maybe some of the names are different of course, but the essence of what he’s saying is that they (and HE) wasn’t good enough, that they continue to look for ways to improve the roster, that they’ll do deep dives into all areas, and having more “conversations”…blah, blah, blah.

Well, Zuck may have just PO'd Terry and GM Howdy Doody with this quote. Maybe our thin-skinned owner and his favorite GM son will now trade Jason this offseason....since he dared to say something that doesn't match the company line (even though it is the absolute truth). -
I would be curious if somebody can compare GMKA’s comments from last year’s season ending presser to this upcoming one. What I am fishing for is to see how much this year’s comments will sound exactly like last year’s. In other words, I am saying GMKA doesn’t need to have a presser this year…..all he has to do is replay last year’s.

Do you believe the Sabres will make the playoffs in 2026?
Carmel Corn replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
Is there another option for “NO” based on the notion that they are simply not good enough (vs. just being unlucky)? -
How will you react to no offseason structure changes to FO/Coaching
Carmel Corn replied to JP51's topic in The Aud Club
Terry thinks he’s smarter than everybody else. Very little change occurs despite the overwhelming evidence that things are not working. Having a delusional owner who is too stubborn to admit he’s wrong is an unacceptable situation.
