Gallant appears to wear out his welcome quicker than Tortorella does. Can't wait to see how his personality marries with the other Gotham folks.

Has been a pattern there. Could be a disaster, but I have liked him and wished we'd have tried to attract him over Ralph at the time.

Not enough .... Eichel is worth more Zegres is only a "nice" prospect to have right now.
- Sabretooth9


There's obviously tiers of players and it seems fairly personal to each.

Zegras looks like one of the best prospects league wide. IMO, he's better than a nice prospect. Quinn is a nice prospect to have (not where he was picked just mean level of quality). Zegras is a prospect you should be really excited to have.

It's what I'm hoping for. Get one of the stud kids, a middle 6 roster player and a 1st. All these trade scenarios where we are taking 6 parts to make the whole, seems off to me.

Zegras and Cozens are neck and neck.

Both play different styles but both look like they are going to be very good 2C’s at the very least.

Neck and neck while being somewhat opposite types of players. I am very excited about Cozens even though he slowed a bit at the end, just look tired. That being said, I think I side with Zegras right now, his shot and ability to create outweigh Cozens' better defensive abilities, to me.

Zegras/Turcotte/Byfield
Cozens
Mitts

That's a top3 C you can work with moving forward IMO.

Why the cap dump, if that's all we're getting? No one is going to bend the Sabres over for Eichel. There are 15 teams that will be calling on him.
- Powerslave

I hope you're right, I'm just preparing myself for another sabres blunder.

I don't know why people are 'hating' on Adams interviewing college coaches. He said he's going to cast a wide net, and that's exactly what he's doing.

Donnie did a great job with developing the young players and getting them to play to their potentials. Can a college guy do that better than Donnie? Can a retread NHL coach? Or a current AHL coach? Or NHL assistant? Or junior coach? Who knows. He's not doing his job if he's not bringing in a ton of guys to see their fit with this roster.

Jason brought in like 3 retreads and Ralph, for some (frank)ing reason.

@DennisTFP
Asked LA GM Rob Blake that if he didn’t add established players would the roster be good enough to make the playoffs next season.

“It wasn’t good enough this season. We need to add to this roster to get better.”

I would think that is what it means, I don't know if I would be on board with that.
