Get a position for a top 3 pick and hope the lottery is kind.

Get the winger and trade for a top 4 dman.

This team screams late season false hope win streak. Hopefully it's not enough to get them out of the bottom 3

But you put him in the same category with Reinhart and O'Reilly, that's why i asked.

If I'm gmtm I put a notice out tomorrow "open for business"

Only untouchables, Eichel, Risto.

It's going to take a massive payment to get: Kane, ROR, Skunk. I'm talking OEL type paymnt.

Everyone else. Make an offer.

- ImThatGuy

I think this team has plenty of talent and ability, this is a coaching problem to the very root

Depth is the problem with this team.
- rmiethaner

Depth? Put girgensons and ennis in the lineup. You still have deslauriers,Gionta,moulson,leggwand,larsson,foligno,weber,colaiacovo,franson,johnson,lehner and the list goes on

Yep. Nobody to fill in for a injured player. I would blame coaching on that. He is the one to keep the team together regardless of who he has to put on the ice.

Andennis, Larssons and Feason should be untouchables IMO

Yes, exactly.

Maybe the younger prospects can replace that trash.

No worries, trick is to find humour in there failures rather than anger. I do so by hoping real hard that more than a few of them aren't here next year.

What young prospects do we have? Two years ago this board was saying how great our defense will be in ten years. Myers,risto,zadorov and mcnabb. Three of them are gone. Regardless if our forward prospects we gave up were going to be good but compfer,armia,Lemieux,Grigorenko and a couple first round picks,all gone. All we have to show is Oreilly and kane..McGinn,lehner and Bogosian are not very good

Just read about Loui Eriksson's no trade. That's actually an interesting concept, his contract gives him a full NTC if the team makes the playoffs. Might be worth exploring with future UFA/RFA's

this is a good post.

But Feason is a (frank)ing bum. I always thought he was a poop pick.

Bailey, Fasching, Guhle.

Those are unknowns. I am not upset by any of the named players they gave up.

Bylsma is obviously coaching for matthews. Really the only explanation that makes sense.

Everyone just needs to take a deep breath and count to 3 er 147. The swings on this board make me think everyone needs a some lithium. Everyone in the media had the Sabres finishing just ahead of Toronto basically across the board. Why is it such a surprise when they lay a few stinkers in a row? The goalie, yeah, he should've had a few of those, but he's getting no help whatsoever. These teams are passing across the ice at will, there's way too much standing around going on, no active sticks in passing lanes, and there's not a coach in the league that tells his guys "hey just stand there, it'll be fine.".
