Other than trade our best defenseman and our best two forwards and not sign our best goalie. FIRE THE BUM! I like it and he better find a friggin goaltender.

See, I honestly did not start this thread to counter anybody’s complaining about a particular GM not doing anything. I honestly started this thread to just give an honest factual list of the things he has done in regards to transactions to/for the team/organization. Where it’s all in one location where we all can review it from time to time to see the activity or lack thereof of the current Sabres GM during his entire tenure. Many seem to like it. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to apologize then. When you bumped the thread I thought it was to *twist the knife* thing to do. I honestly didn't realize you wanted to update the thread on getting two more ELC signings this week and the smart play by signing Bishop. I thought quite the opposite, you where just dismissing them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woods-racer Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 We have signed forward Filip Cederqvist to a two-year, entry level contract. Sabres sign Bishop from Dallas to ensure they won't see cap related problems. Quite an ingenious move by Adams. Josh Bloom to a three-year, entry-level contract starting in 2022-23 A month from now UFA signings start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It almost never happens but it does occasionally. We tried and failed with Vesey, but I wouldn’t mind trying with a potential goaltender.

Sabres trade Sam Reinhart to FLA for G Devon Levi, and 2022 first-round pick. If FLA pick in the top 10 in 2022, the pick moves to 2023. Oct. 25th 2020 ... Sabres sign Linus Ullmark. One year. $2.6 million. Oct. 25th 2020 ... Sabres sign Sam Reinhart. One year. $5.2 million Overall I've been pretty happy with Adams. I've cut the few moves I haven't really liked. I thought the Reinhart situation was largely mishandled. Reports were that he was willing to sign a longer deal, IIRC. I thought Adams also got poor value on the trade. A first rounder that logically would end up in the late first round and a goaltender. I'm glad Levi looks promising, but the uncertainty of goalie prospects makes the value of the trade worse. Reinhart was the second best player on the team -- a consistent 65 point player ought to get more than a late first and a decent goaltender prospect Losing Ullmark has put this team in a poor position from a goaltending standpoint. How many goalies did the Sabres use last season? 6? 8? Adams should have locked up Ullmark for 2-3 years. Dahlin also should have been given a longer deal. 8 yrs x 8 million would have been a bargain down the road. Now the team will end up giving him 5 x 10 million when the bridge deal is up.

It was what, this years All-Star break that the switch flipped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first two on your list… I did put in the OP a few days ago. The qualifying offers I will add… Once they are excepted by the player. The Pilut situation will be added once he is signed by KA. 👍🏼 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
