Gerbe, I think you arn't given enough credit around here,


But,
If jbotts truly had 1 offer, what could he do?

Can't force another team to want kane
- Boss34

I don’t doubt Homie & 89 that team’s were calling
I guess at the end of the day,
they just weren’t interested in getting into a bidding war

I was wrong wrong wrong
Ugh

So one trade or did I miss something?
- U Sir Name

Correct

I don't blame him, based on what i heard today its going to be 3-4 years before this team starts to get good again.
- ImThatGuy

That’s the problem. I can’t make every game and people won’t even take them for free. I can buy better tickets for 15 dollars on stub hub.

Sorry calling out completely baseless claims is being a Richard
- Zschalberg

It's not about making a counterclaim, but the method in which you do it. Food for thought.

Guys on NHL tonight said that Kane is worth more the his return and it was the steal of the trade deadline.
- SABRES 89

I agree

NyR did a really good job as well
Pretty ballsy for them to sell like they did

Time to move on and see what the off season brings.

Correct
- jochfr

this team becomes more of a joke by the day

might as well have let GMTM run his course

I gotta believe Botts trys to move Okposo now. He didn't sound like a guy that was happy with where we were at and I doubt he signs up for a rebuild.

Where's his presser I couldn't find it ? Gee we are rebuilding again for the 4th time in 6 years.

Total organizational rebuild

Yep
Disappointing day though
Oh well

Lotto day is the next day we can be let down again (lol)

Jb got the L today

But Tim Murray put this franchise back three years

- GERBE!!!75PTS

More like a decade

Was there only like 12 trades today?

That’s gotta be the lowest ever
A couple big ones at least

Pretty surprised at the lack of activity though

I guess a lot of teams decided not to “buy”
That probably affected the return we got for Kane too

If GMTM was still here...
Kane & Lehner would have long term deals

Think about that for a minute

TM glorified Scout! Tried to fast track the rebuild

GMJB will clean this mess up brick by brick, building a winning culture in Rochester is the start. Big club is a mess, give him the summer (FA/Draft).

Give Eichel the C & #9.....presser this summer with the new direction of this club!

would you listen to a Tim Murray press conference tonight?

Would’ve been one thing if it worked
The Kane & ROR deals are a bust bc GMTM screwed up the defense so badly

He set us back for sure
All those wasted assets...
damn it

Funny, I don't see Evander Kane on this list.

There is a Winnipeg player on the list, however.

Huh.

I guess teams were afraid of his "reputation".

Total Russ Brandon move...jersey sails!

Looks like my boy Case Keenum will be a free agent
Let’s go Bills!

(Yes, i get why some don’t like him)

Listening to Botterill's presser, sounds like he wanted to resign Kane but do to contracts coming in and bad contracts we have, he couldn't. He said it's a cap world.

not sure if mentioned already but another layer to the conditional first


if the sharks win the cup we get their 2019 first regardless of whether kane re-signs

Evander's immaturity off of the ice fooked us.

I think most GMs were leery of Kane's attitude/behavior.
It wouldn't be outrageous to wonder if he has been better behaved lately mainly because of the probation deal that makes those charges go away if he behaved himself, and the fact that this is the year he's playing for his next contract. Maybe too risky for most to bring in a guy with his reputation/baggage, who could possibly disrupt your team chemistry. I wouldn't want him on my team. Buffalo will probably have a better "team" without him in the room.
