So Buffalo was like hey! Here's a contract offer and Allan Walsh was like... "no"

Allan Walsh sucks btw

Yes, yes he does.

I can blame Adams for being an idiot for a myriad of things but I can't hold Peterka not getting signed as one if there were no negotiations.

Maybe Adams was like "how aboot 4x$4M?" ... i can see not dignifying that with a response, lol.

Frankly, I highly doubt it; he's more likely to offered something stupid overpay wise than undercut the player

Walsh works for his clients to get them what they want. He didn't give a counter offer because JJ didn't want to be here. Why do you think he was feeding his stooge Fat Frank all of those stories?

Apparently, GMKA wasn’t able to convince Peterka to stay since the trade deadline. 

Which RFA Sabre(s) switch to Walsh as their agent this season to prepare for next summer?

Krebs, Benson, Doan, Kesselring?

Adams said he had been chasing Kesselring for "a couple of years now"

Interesting comment by JJP.

He's only been in the league since 2022-2023.

“Just how committed the team is to win”

Wish those words were applicable to the Sabres

Yeah but sounds like Utah isnt efficient, effective and economic, so who's the real winning organisation

Former players quickly mentioning the commitment to winning is quite the canary in the coal mine

Also it’s weird to have already been here for 5 years 

 

Replicates the toxic environment, you say???????

Utah has made the playoffs once over the last 10 years (2020).

Compared to the Sabres though, I guess that is an improvement.

Would you rather have Terry Pegula or Utah’s  Ryan Smith as your owner?

I'm going to choose neither.

And Mitts noticed how hard the Avalanche practices were.
