Makes sense

I suggested Sam back with Jack, as well as moving Girgensons back into the top6

Try to showcase them & get their value up

His willingness to hit, his size, if he turned out to be at good #3 guy I think that a win.

He might turn into that, but he will be a 2nd pairing guy at the very least.

One thing that will never escape him is penalties. Some are just dumb bad ones bc he will get caught not moving his feet, other times he gets called for just being too big and over powering someone

What's the time table on Makar making into the line up?

There’s a post on page 3 of the Isles blog regarding the Avs you should feel obligated to comment on! Hurry, GO!
- Hatboro_Swords

nah, I just pop in to see what the compher talk would be about bc I just assumed Ricks blog would stir up some people in sabres land.

Sabres got the better player, Avs got a good collection of depth and youth to build with their future. Both teams got what they wanted and I have said that from Day 1.

Just when people cant actually look at things objectively taking shots, thats when my Defend the Avs signal goes off

GMTM got a raw deal. Can't believe he is gone. Saying Rochester would still be bad if he was still here is mesmerizing. The best players on the team are guys he either drafted or brought in. Botts strikes me as a literal moron! No wonder he is so liked.

Clickbait

I know you don't feel this way

The 2nd round pick was still part of it, so yeah its tough bc the 31st overall pick turned into those 3 guys. Sharks grabbed Jermey Roy at that spot but who knows who could have been drafted there in the Sabres spot..but its still part of the avs trade tree and will be used to judge our side of the deal

Rantanen for ROR and a 3rd

What's the time table on Makar making into the line up?

I hope another year in the NCAA. No need to rush him. They have Girard now to mentor and grow. Similar players so dont over load it at one time.

Connor timmons though might make the jump next year, he was damn good at camp and pre-season

Rantanen for ROR and a 3rd

Hes a good one, sometimes his hockey IQ turns off when its in the neutral zone and own end. Guy needs to work on his 2way game. BFF Landeskog is helping

You get flipped off for a lot less in Philly.

All players have to deal with injuries. Compher was the only one that could be considered an asset, the rest was slop.

Botts is a doofus.
- Hatboro_Swords

Are you trolling?
I liked gmtm , he was refreshing at first.

Some of his trades were suspect at best:

McNabb for fashing?
Prysk for kulikov?

Trading away the 2 1st rounders and our 2nd in the 2015 draft didn't make sense.
Regardless of the returns.

His foul mouth "slapping pee pees " got old
Missing on Reinhart and probably nylander

Jbotts has a MBA from the University of Michigan? He's the doofus?

What did tmgm really accomplish?

Their 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th leading scorers are all JB's guys.

But hey, Eric Cornel has 5 points in 21 games, and Hudson Fasching is closing in on .5 PPG in the AHL, and they only cost a total of 3 2nd round picks and a Top 6 NHL D man (We don't need those)

Raw deal indeed

How anyone is defending Murray still blows my mind

He failed in MANY respects...
Whether Botts ends up doing a good job or not has no bearing in his extremely justified firing

And he’s been gone a while now
It’s not like he’s coming back

Hey...
correct me if I’m wrong, but RORs best season was when he was on a line with Landeskog & Duchene, right?

I am shocked more of you folks didn't see how over his head he was 12 months ago

Yeah, the finger seems like a harsh response then.

Remember it's NYS...no fault...just yell "Ramming Speed" before you hit and you're legally protected.

This person waited more than 30 seconds that's about a two second to 3 seconds stop

Probably was yapping on the phone or texting

The thing that was most worrisome was trading more assets to chase 8th.

Tpegs put a complete freeze on all sabres trades at the 2016 deadline . UFA or not.

How long was the beep. Short and sweet or extended?

Extended around the stressful holiday season sometimes Warrents an extended finger

Is Reinhart going to be practicing getting scored against?

I would say 2 seconds. Then I see a middle finger up in the air outside the window gunning it

I think I might have some kind of La smell now haha everytime I come here now I get grunts , rolling eyes , will you move etc

He lost me when he traded a 2015 first round pick in one of the deepest drafts

I'm happy nylander is going to Sweden one of the smartest decisions go kick some ass at World Juniors
