There have been several posters who have reported the rift in the locker room between the two. Idk how many more times it has to be stated. Believe your opinion as much as you want but its wrong. Obviously Eichel and ROR are going to take the highroad in the media. Just like every GM that goes to the media and gives his tailor made responses. The culture was broken, every single player has mentioned "culture" being better this season like its a broken record. Eichel even said he didn't lose his "love of the game" in an interview a couple of months back taking a subtle shot at ROR. Give it a rest.

U mean there’s posters who got 2nd or 3rd hand info that
*according to Jack*
got blown so far outta proportion that they even decided to clown around with it

Ok... you think Jack is a liar
I don’t

Good thing I'm the only one around here.

Or

Things that are good here around one

Nah, you're just a Richard....period.

I disagree. After reading the Athletic article, my first thought was, this guy should never play hockey again

But you're essentially HOPING for him to get hurt again. That's awful. I'm sorry, I don't know how you could hope for physical harm to someone.

If Duchene doesn’t get caught on camera in the uber what do you think he tells the media if they ask him about the Power Play ? Probably some
Bs response about how they need to be better and how they are working on things. Not that the assistant coach is a freaking clown. Do you really think Jack is going to bad mouth ROR in the media and damage his own reputation and integrity ?

Hearing anything about possible Call-ups or trade talks?

Make sure to do that voodoo trick before gametime

No, nothing as of now. Trades I only heard 1 name and Skinner is the first on the list of to do's for Botterill.

No, of course not
But did u listen to the podcast?
That sure as sh!t doesn’t sound to me (the words, plus the “tone”) like there was any REAL issues

Did they get p!ssed at times, and even with each other?
I wouldn’t doubt it
But that happens on losing teams
It doesn’t mean that these 2 “best buddies who were really tight” had unresolved issues

The problem wasn’t each other...
it was all the damn losing


And what Jack gave was not the typical BS response that “it was no big deal & i wish him the best”

Can u really not see the difference?
Listen to the podcast & get back to me

Hopefully we can get Skinner done soon so Botts can try to address the middle6

We need some kind of shakeup

We are lucky we are winning games with only 1 line of scoring and good goal tending helps.

But you're essentially HOPING for him to get hurt again. That's awful. I'm sorry, I don't know how you could hope for physical harm to someone.
- HonkFortheGoose

That's 100% NOT what I said. I hope he doesn't further injur himself, but that he rethinks his future.

Go back and read what I said. You're putting words in my mouth. That is not at all what I said

This is what i said:

"I'm not wishing further injury on him, I'm hoping he and the Sabres can reach a solution. He's not the player he was, and he probably shouldn't be playing right now. He already said his personality changed. Healthy is relative for him it seems"

Agreed
Tough to see it holding up in the playoffs

We’ve at least gotta consider breaking up the top line at some point

No, of course not

I don't need to listen to the podcast. I know why ROR was traded. Do whatever helps you feel better though.

This is all I took from this. Good for him, good for him...

4:09 minute mark on...

"not have all these defensive mechanisms"

Carter Hutton is a better leader than ROR

Jack Eichel without having ROR is a better leader

This Sabres team is a better team without having ROR

FOR THE LAST TIME

ROR AND his salary were holding this team's future hostage, now him and his salary are gone

oh my....

- Sabre_Tooth

Maybe Girgensons to start but don't think that will happen, Brassard has no term left. Berglund did us a favor so he has more room for now but won't just make a move just do make a move, so to speak. They know 2nd line is a very big issue.

Pittsburgh Penguins
‏Verified account @penguins
30m30 minutes ago

The Penguins have re-signed forward Jake Guentzel to a five-year, $30 million contract extension. The deal begins with the 2019.20 season.

Rutherford on @jakenbake20: “He has become a core player on the team.”


They're going to have to make some moves in the offseason

That puts them at $68.85 going into next year with 9 players to sign and or replace

Typical (frank)o that cant take a joke.

That's you, you're a real douche bag you know that. Take EK9's johnson out of your mouth for minute and breath.

- SABRES 89

They may or may not sign skinner before or after the new year.

But Suprisingly he's the priority?
