1. moved on from whaley and have a young set of eyes for coach and gm

2. refused to overpay woods and gilmore

3. managed to get 3 starters at the draft and an extra first rd pick for 2018

4. Micah Hyde, yeah he is really good

5. picked up o line depth, wr depth secondary depth

6. brought back Alexander on the cheap

7. Jordan Poyer is going to be a decent player

8. grabbing 2 decent fb's for goal line, 3rd and short and the kid from atlanta will catch 30-40 passes

Louder for the people in the back.

Nothing is guaranteed in the NFL...if he doesn't work out he gets cut unlike Moulson who the Sabres seem to be pretty much stuck with

I hope and prey during the next negotiation they get rid of gurantedd contracts much like NFL and only signing bonus/Gurantees are counted.

The whole guaranteed contract thing is idiotic.

That was the only way the players were okay with a salary cap...

Except they structure those football contracts to be front loaded. So you enter awkward territory where you've pre-paid for those services so you feel somewhat obligated to see it through. And the lower cap hit years are so close to kicking in too.

And hockey contracts should not be guaranteed.

Or have mandatory minimum performance requirements agreed upon by both parties. If player X doesn't hit 10 goals, 40 points, the team can void the contract.

The jury is still out... It's not Mayo but it's not relish either.

Been away for awhile, was pretty busy with other things and didn't have much to contribute to the board during the cup finals but now that, that's over with...

What's the general pulse on this board on who they think the coach is going to be?

I'm sure most if not everyone wants Housley but do most people like myself expect it to be Tocchet?
