Incredible that he was supposedly all about “meat and potato” players. He is all about skill. Hence our incredibly soft composition

Let's hope he changes his vision this draft.

I mean, if you were a grocer and owned a moldy apple it is still technically fruit, you just aren’t going to sell it and instead toss it in the compost pile.

Jim just has a green thumb.

Especially the way he cultivates waiver scraps and grafts them into the vine.

I think you guys have had a raw deal this year with the schedule. Brutal from start to finish.
Considering that you have done OK in my view, I don't think major changes are required

Why are you trying to start an argument?

Good God no. I’d rather offer Sutter a 6 year contract

Jack Eichel admits he's "upset" about the way things have been handled since his injury. Says there's "been a bit of a disconnect" between him and the Sabres.

Don't think he'll be back...

Jack Eichel essentially says the Sabres wouldn't let him have surgery on his herniated disk in his neck.

His body, his choice?

"It doesn't work like that. I wish. ... I'm under contract with this team and they definitely hold a lot of cards on what I can and can't do."

We can't afford Eichel even at 1/2 of his salary. But yeah, hard pass on a 10 million dollar aav whiner.

More likely be Sam Reinhart.

He isn’t a winner. And he is paid like an elite star 🤢

I wonder how many prospects are ready for the NHL next season. Will some of the this year guys be included with the next year crew?

Hall has looked ok in Boston. Maybe it’s Buffalo that’s the problem?

Other than Pods....Lind and Gadj have outside chances. Maybe Lockwood. I think we're seeing everyone that has a chance this year. I got a little sad yesterday looking at the prospects depth chart.

Wasn't there some homeless looking man who got traded from Colorado to Buff then they shipped him off to St Lou.. I think he played okay afterwards?

Yes. Eichel is exactly who you want to build around. You have changed my mind.

Graduated a few players. Used a few picks to get Miller and Toffoli. 8 picks year will replenish.

Pretty rare talent. Also sounds like an arrogant trust fund kid. I'd probably pass.

Regardless of how (frank)ed Buffalo is, he is their star player and leader. He has failed just as much as his organization has. And now he is injured Amd constantly complaining. No idea who will take on that awful contract. Imo he has negative value
