McDermott endorsed Zay this morning and Beane did yesterday. He's not going anywhere.

The good news mr. being said he’ll use the 2019 first to move up to get his guy

Botts is in the middle of a wgr segment. Everyone should give it a listen on demand. Very insightful.

Just stating the Obvious

It’s not about playing time it’s not about the NHL it’s all about the money

And I would do the same

He said it's in the realm of possibilities. He'll do "anything that makes the team better" whether that moves up or down.

If it wasn’t about the money he would’ve signed an ATO then the 3 years

He wanted to burn the year of his contract for the money it’s not hard to understand

Dude. Did you completely ignore what Botterill has publicly said.

He and CM both WANTED for him to play in the NHL to speed up his development.

I just don't understand playing Casey at center right away
They really should just let him ride shotgun with Jack and build some confidence and go from there

He left college to get his "big payday"

I don't need to listen all the college players do it burn a year off their contract get some NHL time and get a Payday

Hell half the college free agents we signed do it but yes they want to get "NHL time"

I think that was the "think about that" part, dummy.

Ur garbage!

This literally happened on Sunday when Borgen didn't do this.

This tells me all I need to know.

I wish Botterill would say

"It was a situation where"

More often

Stop trying. It is pointless.

Great 1 person ...

How about Casey Nelson you remember when he did that?
Who else in our organization has done this "payday"
That's it

Oh that's right CJ Smith signed where he made$900,000 for playing for the Sabres

But that's right it wasn't about the money even though it was in his contract

I'm not telling you money isn't a factor. It absolutely is. But have you thought for like a second that maybe, just maybe, there are other factors that interest the Sabres like, say, a development advantage?

You realize we didn't HAVE to sign Casey this year, right. If Botts didn't want to burn a year and prep him for next year, all he would have to say is "no".

Taco I respect you I'm just pointing out that Casey had all the power he probably put in his contract that he wants to get paid his full amount by playing with us

Of course playing in the NHL is going to help him and going to Worlds

And we really did not have the power to say no with the way college free agents have been happening I don't think he was going to risk that he said sure take the money and burn the year
