DarthEbriate Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 Interesting, interesting. It makes sense with Kyrou's and Thomas' new contracts kicking in next season. Why start a hard rebuild when your new core is already signed up and being paid $8M each? Binnington's inconsistent, but he has been known to get hot here and there. They've a bunch of UFAs to retool the entire bottom of the roster on the cheap. Get in-prime Meier to replace older Tarasenko and see where the chips fall. Their division has Colorado and Dallas, and while Winnipeg is good this season, I can't say that they really scare anyone. The Wild are about to go up to $14M buyout penalties for the next 2 seasons. Nashville? Meh. And 2 rebuilding squads. A quick reset and they're back in the playoffs (albeit likely in the 5-8 slot) and hope that Binnington gets hot.

I think that team is going to turn things around more quickly than most teams do. They just need to spend $1-2M on a psychoanalyst for Binnington.

Their supposed strength has been a weakness and they've all got NTCs (so do Leddy and Scandella for that matter). And although Binnington can get hot here and there, this season he's garbage again.

Drury is the one that played buffalo 4 hours ago, Buffalonill said: He sure got his revenge leading us on till free agency. Because of him they went all in and they let Danny go the one who wanted to stay 2 hours ago, Buffalonill said: Can you clue me in then? Beacuse thats what Daniel Briere said They both had a plan to stay and drury backed out No. Don't just throw a bunch of free association at a wall to see what sticks. Briere did want to stay, but he did NOT say that Drury backed out. Drury did NOT "lead them on." The Sabres screwed the pooch by not trying to keep Briere AND by jerking Drury around until he got PO'd and left. It was 100% on Golisano and Quinn. They took the best Sabres team in a generation and butchered it -- and not just with Briere/Drury but with a bunch of smaller terrible moves as well. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBD Posted February 21, 2023 Report Share Posted February 21, 2023 Isn't it Drury whose contract wasn't faxed over in time? Or am I thinking of someone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also haven't drafted amazing recently either so it isn't like a pool of young guys are breaking down the doors. St. Louis is currently in no man's land.

Yea and they aren't good now so what will they add with only 12 million in space to upgrade all the jags they are losing and fill out the other 9 roster spots?

If they were to get Meier for marginally more than what Toronto gave up for the ROR deal...it might be some fun talk radio up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
