CallawaySabres Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 I think the worst part about this entire situation is that there is 0 and I mean 0 chance this team has any hopes to sniff the playoffs next year either. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not not Ristolainen's fault. Really have to criticize management for the handling of Mittelstadt this season. After a few late season games, he was expected to replace ROR as our 2nd line center. He clearly wasn't ready. They should have realized that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't enough talent on this team.There hasn't been in years and whether you agree with the moves or not, we traded 2 of our better forwards and pretty much got nothing in return. Do you really think Kane would have re-signed with the Sabres in the offseason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottysabres Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 The Sabres now hold the 5th spot in the draft rankings, pre-lottery St. Louis has the 20th, so that pick would go to Anaheim if the season ended today. Montreal pulled in to a 3 way tie with them and Vegas, and there is 6 games left, it'll be close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Allan in MD Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 Housley is a travesty but Botterill deserves a lot of the blame. Exhibit A: trading one of the better centers in the league for a quitter, a loser, and a guy who should have been in Rochester a good part of the year. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we either lose him for nothing, or we trade him as a rental to a playoff team. What do you think the going rate for a rental with a history of issues is?
