  • WildCard changed the title to Sabres Presser: Thursday Morning (7/22/2021) - Adams, Karmanos, Forton

It's just a very odd time to have a presser unless they don't think they'll need another (i.e. no big trade). The trade freeze doesn't end till 1pm, why not wait to have the presser until after the draft or at least Friday morning.

Sabres do an advance presser before the draft every year. Nothing unusual about this, and the presence of Forton is confirmation.

There will be another Friday night and a final one Saturday night or Sunday morning.

And look at Charlie sliding seamlessly into @Brawndo's shoes. Some fine holiday relief there.

I'm assuming this is just the usual pre-draft presser to discuss how excited they are to be drafting #1, and other generalities about the draft.

That would be my assumption as well. 

Reminder to everyone the trade freeze does not end until 1pm on Thursday.

Yeah, just a post expansion draft, pre amateur draft press conference I would think.

Charlie taking some time away from Charlie work to do some Brawndo work.

Because it’s about Pegula hats or naming Cody Eakin captain or something equally stupid

That's right, Kevyn Adams' staff will consist of JK, LOL and LMAO.

OMG.

There's no reason to speculate on what this is about - it's the post expansion draft/pre amateur draft presser. There is a full zero percent chance it's a transactional presser because of the timing and because you don't announce a presser two days out about a transaction that has yet to be announced.
