pi2000 Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 With the 2018 draft in our rearview mirror, it's time for us, Sabres Fans, to turn our attention to the 2019 draft and start thinking about what BUF needs to do to secure the best odds in the Jack Hughes lottery. Let's face it, Buffalo isn't winning the Cup this season. So it would be a disservice to try and finish anywhere but dead last as Jack Hughes is truly a once in a lifetime generational talent... not counting McDavid, Eichel and Matthews... and maybe Dahlin. So rev up your tank engines Sabres Fans and let's get this party started! IMO, the first step should be trading ROR.. better yet if they get a likely lottery pick in return. Moving him would open up a huge hole in the lineup, losing a PK and PP centerpiece, and faceoff genius. Nobody else can do those things as well as him. Probably good for about 10-12 additional losses with him out of the picture. Then sign a journeyman goaltender and make him the starter. Bury Mittlestadt, Guhle and any other promising young guns in Roch the entire season. That should be enough for another last place finish... I'm ready.

This one is satire, but you know if the team isn't looking like it'll make the playoffs come January, there will be some calls on here for exactly this.

sabresparaavida Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 Alright here's an idea. Finish somewhere around 15th, start a culture change, somehow win the lottery, then win the next 8 cups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoPuckYourself Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 If were going to lose do it properly, finish dead last. We did and we got Dahlin for our troubles and it should change our landscape. I might be in the minority but I still think Ryan O'Reilly is part of the problem, his attitude seems to be piss poor and he's supposed to be one of our leaders.... Get a goal scoring winger for him and a pick, put Reinhart back at C where he belongs imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

apuszczalowski Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 If you really want to guarantee last, trade Eichel, by the time they are good he will be old and approaching late 20s before they sniff the playoffs. Then re-sign Lehner and Johnson for some more evaluation to see if one of them can ever become a #1! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miles Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 We'll see how the season goes :P this is by far the best picture i have seen in a long time. as far as tanking, i will full on give up on the sabres if they ever have a tank season again.

BuffaloBorn Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 Look at Las Vegas' roster, look at Sabres. Then realize that Vegas made the SCF. No season is lost before it began. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get to January and this team does not have a better record, I don't think anyone will care what they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
