looking back, we moved zads, gringo, compher, early second for
a late first, a second, a third, tage and sobotka
the late first and early second are a wash and gringo was a bust so its really
zads, compher for a second, a third and tage - homiedclown
Do you know who we drafted using the pick we got for McGinn? |

No one would care if JB didn’t trade him for table scraps.
Happy for ROR. - IceColdBeer
This can’t be said enough.
He got poop for a playoff MVP.
Anyone who still thinks it’s a good trade is just in denial.
Botterill better be good this year because he has lost my faith in him. |

Also this whole We traded ROR for cap space is such BS.
The Sabres only clear 1mm of space if Berglund doesn’t quit.
It is Just another narrative to define one of the worst trades in Sabres history.
ROR will have 1 year left on his deal when he is supposed in decline.
Also my favorite is now “we would have never won with ROR here”

It’s not trolling it’s the truth but keep on your rose-colored glasses because the Sabres are doing just fine right? |

Woudn't go back again after all this coming out - Whatnot78
We went 3 months ago. Stayed at the Riu Republica which is 2 resorts down the beach from the Hotel Murder.
Had fun though. Also, didn't get murdered. |

They wouldn't have. St. Louis had a lot more pieces in place.
O'Reilly is a piece St. Louis chose to build with. Buffalo and Colorado tried to build around him. It failed miserably in both places. |

he more then wanted to keep kane, wanted to put an A on his jersey
a lot less leaks out with botts as gm, vs murray or darcy - homiedclown
If jbotts wanted to keep ek9. That's a huge strike against him. Worse then trading ror.
Ek9 proved his worth. Now they are stuck |

We sure make some really bad trades. - SABRES 89
I was just surprised some people seemed really happy to see him go. The guy is a great player. I think there were probably other places to look for issues with the team than at him regardless of his comments.
We had Leafs fans a couple years ago not wanting to trade Kadri for him ... WTF? |

Question
ROR was a piece that lead a 30th place team and wasn’t a piece we could build around. He was moved because of his contract, correct.
Are Eichel and Skinner not the same? They were the leaders of a team that had one of the worst stretches in NHL history.
Skinner now has a bad contract.
Should we look to move them because we probably aren’t winning with them here either. |

(frank)ing embarrassing. Thank you Botterill. - Hatboro_Swords
You misspelled Terry and Kim.
By refusing to pay the Bonus last year, they lowered the return of the trade. |

All I am going to say is that I am so f'n proud of Ryan O'Reilly. Dude has scrapped and clawed on 2 terrible teams for years. He had a hard time losing but when he finally got the chance at success on a well built team... he thrived in the moment. ROR is my favorite player in the NHL today and I am happy I got a chance to see him wear the Sabres sweater but even more happy that he got to win a cup.
oh... and F*CK BOSTON!! |

If they wallow around the bottom again next year, I am absolutely ready to have that conversation, yes. |
