Thats true but we have to be careful hes our only hope lol and its smart to put him at wing like Boston did with Seguin

Let's say he improves every game then you Reward him and move him up

Cozens just seems like a different animal them Mitts and Tage.

I read that the Bills only had a 3 person marketing team. Who do you market to when no fans are going to the games this year. Maybe the Pegulas asked to cut their pay due to their lack of a market to market to and that is why they quit?

They cut the pay of Sabres employees, JB by 10%, before he was fired during the Pandemic. .

The pegula's know this virus is going to prevent home games in NY indefinitely.

Why market tickets for no games?

Same with the Sabres. Canned everyone after getting a some solid advice about the virus. Maybe during the 3 or 4 weeks they " changed their mind " with botts.

Ahh. Mitts his freshman year of college was on top of the hockey world by having a good freshman year and dominating the world juniors.

Mitts wasn’t a bum

Tage I know nothing about how he got to the nhl

You're right But you can't just go into the season and think Hes going to be it..

Hopefully the sabers don't do that and just put him on the back burner and just Do their business and build a roster and then Add him into the roster later

I am not saying that, just said are we looking at the wrong plan B. Could Haula be that person for a year or so. If Cozens is ready great then Haula goes to 3C, if Cozens falters then Haula moves up. Haula is a good 2 way C with decent offense. I just don't think Cozens should be short changed cause he's young.

Casey wasn't a bum he looked like a "player " I just think he got way too comfortable thinking he could just get by with his talent Just started doing his own thing not Worrying about keeping fit

Tage is Myers on forward that has Trouble with his hockey IQ..

I was kind of excited to see what tage could do then he got hurt his first nhl game back.

So it makes it right to kill him ? And then say That's not gonna be an open casket

Like 4 real who jokes about that ..

You must do some really dumb things in your spare time.

Listen if you want to get to know this black community you claim to support come ride with me some time. I’ll show you around. It’ll be a blast.

Thats the problem you see the bad apples And that's how you base your opinion..
- GERBE!!!75PTS

Where in there do you get that. I take it as he has seen some bad stuff. I for one have certain groups of clients I hate dealing with. It’s based on experience. I take them all on but I am more hesitant with certain groups of clients. And I am an engineer. It’s not about racism it’s about experiences.

Did you see my response on the last page about it being a two way street and how rioting, looting and retaliatory actions make it worse?

That's a big problem, PERCEPTION, and unfortunately a lot of that is by there own hand.

The day we made the trade I went on a rant how much he stinks and got fire blasted ..

Hopefully they move him this summer

They will give him a chance. But I don’t think he has it.

Its literally the old saying of two wrongs don't make a right.

Its not that easy for the black Community.. sure we can say its easy for us but to be in their shoes who knows what they're felling and how they treat them
- GERBE!!!75PTS

I have quite the mixed family.
Your statement is offensive to blacks that are not part of the pity, woe is me party.

I know, I live with some that feel this way.

They will give him a chance. But I don’t think he has it.
- SabresFaninIndiana

He honestly just reminds me of Luke Adam

To this day I Don't understand what Jason Botterill Obsession was with tage The blues We're fine giving up Thomas but he wanted tage like he saw Crosby lol

Not in charge of anything right now, especially concrete.

Nearly died last month with afib Supraventricular tachycardia and a blood clot on the very tip top of my heart.
A couple good shocks to try and bring my heart rate down from 215 beats per minute because no medication was working...

2 surgeries later on my heart and I am at home doing therapy and working back up my strength very slowly every day.
I won't be seeing concrete this year with a heart only pumping at 25%.

Take it easy my friend.
I come here in peace.

I feel like we were the only ones saying what a joke it was that we got Tage

I hope I’m wrong about him,
but I’ve always thought he tops out as an average
3rd liner at best

MOST who thought (at the time) we got a good return for O’Reilly...
It was an utter joke then, & still is now

It's happening again

It's happening again

Good!

It will always be an utter joke, and shows the incompetence at the very top

All we can do is hope thompson becomes a 15-20g third liner to accompany a big body that can skate.

That is the best possible outcome

Thanks to whomever this is!

Boterill got basically nothing for ROR.


2 cap dumps, a C/C- level prospect and a pick that turned into a c level prospect.

Fits his c and D level player narrative though.

I’m hoping some dumb GM out there thinks he can be a 20+ goal scorer & we can pull off a “Nylander for Jokiharju” type trade with him

Although I’ll admit that’s quite wishful thinking with our rookie GM who has zero experience

Thank you.
That is very kind and much appreciated.

Slow and steady every day.

- ieetbred

Bc these protests are NOT about ONE PERSON

It’s about the CONTINUED discrimination & outright racism that prevents the absolute foundation on which this country was built on...

Not that the Founding Father’s got it right in their actions right away...
but FINALLY America is saying that it’s time we put our IDEALS into PRACTICE,
and standing up & fighting for true EQUALITY FOR ALL
