What are you assuming? That Adams wouldn't trade Kahun? For a first round pick?

Yeah, that detail.

Captain Jack would have noticed that Kahun can play a little. Considering all the lousy teammates he has had during his tenure here, I’ll bet he was pleasantly surprised by Kahun’s game.

Jack can’t be pleased with this development.

I don't think an elite professional athlete such as Jack has the knee-jerk reactions that a Buffalo hockey message board has.

He knows it's a business.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Promising young forward Dominik Kahun is eligible to become an unrestricted free agent after the Buffalo Sabres chose not to issue a qualifying offer to retain his rights by an NHL deadline Wednesday.

Kahun's agent Jiri Hamal, however, told The Associated Press his client hasn't ruled out rejoining the team. Hamal said he's scheduled to have further contract discussions with the Sabres on Thursday to see if the two sides can reach a deal.


``We still want to talk,'' Hamal said. ``Buffalo was a great option for him and we believe we might find a solution.''

Hamal said he rejected the Sabres' contract offer as ``not being good enough.'' He said, the Sabres elected to not issue Kahun a minimum offer, knowing the player had the potential to get a better deal should he take the team to arbitration.

Should a deal not be reached, Kahun is eligible to become an unrestricted free agent Friday.

Kahun was an undrafted free agent out of the Czech Republic, and broke into the NHL by signing a two-year $7.55 million contract with Chicago before the 2018-19 season. He was traded to Pittsburgh the following off-season, and then acquired by Buffalo in a trade for Conor Sheary and Evan Rodrigues in February.

Kahun scored two goals and four points in six games with the Sabres before the season was paused due to the coronavirus pandemic. Overall, he has 25 goals and 43 assists for 68 points in 138 career NHL games.

The Sabres issued qualifying offers to retain the rights of six restricted free agents: forwards Sam Reinhart, Victor Olofsson and Casey Mittelstadt, defencemen Brandon Montour and Lawrence Pilut, and goalie Linus Ullmark.

Pilut has left the team to play in the Kontinental Hockey League. The Sabres, however, hold his rights should he return to the NHL.

Buffalo also re-signed minor-league goalie Jonas Johansson to a one-year, $700,000 contract.

I was one of those said optimistic people.

I even went as far as to tell Sbroads to calm down constantly these last few weeks.

These past couple of days though are really pushing it for me.

We need to hit the next few days out of the park here

They have interest in Toffoli but there is no reason to overpay for him.

Jack Quinn - Left Wing - Ottawa 67's
As stated, Quinn has seriously closed the gap for me between Rossi, Perfetti, and he. It wouldn't shock me at all if he was drafted before one or both. NHL scouts love this kid. IMO, Quinn was actually the better and more consistent OHL player in the second half for Ottawa, if we're comparing him to Rossi. My write up for Quinn is going to focus a lot on those who downplay his abilities for various reasons. The first is his age. Yes, he only missed last year's draft by a few days. I don't care. Human development is non linear. Quinn was playing AA hockey and was well under 6'0 before his minor midget year. Physically, this kid is a late bloomer and is the exact reason why we have the September cutoff. That extra year has allowed him to fill out his growing frame (now over 6'0), and improve his overall athleticism and skating ability. The second is the team he plays for. Quinn doesn't play with Rossi at even strength. He plays with Mitchell Hoelscher (a late round NHL draft pick), and either a converted defenseman (Belanger) or a rookie (Jack Beck). Yet, he led the OHL (with Nick Robertson) in even strength goals. He plays with Rossi on the powerplay, on the penalty kill, and when protecting a lead late. But he does not ride piggy back. Quinn is terrific at creating his own scoring chances. He is such a deceptive player in transition. He has such a high level shot that defenders have to try to be aggressive in taking away his space, so he exploits that by cutting to the middle, using defenders as a screen. He is also exceptionally intelligent without the puck. His anticipation as a goal scorer is outstanding. And his play away from the puck as a defensive player improved by leaps and bounds this year. This kid has to be considered one of the most complete wingers available this year. The third is the quality of the team he plays for. This is an easy one to refute. Maybe the 67's are as good as they are because of Quinn? Ottawa had more injuries than any team this year, and to key players, yet they found themselves on top because of kids like Quinn. Look, I won't pretend that Quinn's game doesn't have limitations. I don't necessarily think that he's a high level playmaker. He is great working the wall to prolong possession. However, in transition, he's usually very driven to score. And while his skating has improved a lot, it's still not elite. Likely equates to being slightly above average in the NHL. However, IMO, it's rare to find such a quality goal scorer, who also happens to have good size and plays a 200 foot game. This is a kid you can have on the ice if you need a goal, or are up a goal. His minutes won't have to be sheltered. For that reason, he's a candidate for the top 7 IMO.

What else is new, no pitching like I said. Hicks has no business on this team and neither does Gary Sanchez.
