female doging is all part of it.

In case Pachla is lurking, I'd like to thank him as well. The only reason this opportunity came about is because of him. I became a lurker and a poster after stumbling across his work years ago. I always appreciated his even temperament and "just-the-facts-ma'am" approach to the Sabres during nothing but poopty times

Congrats! And Respect, Mon!

Far too much crybaby bs that goes on here from grown men- many in their 50s & 60s

I'm very, very down on the Pegula's myself.
I have very serious questions with Adams capability as a newbie to drive maximum value from each of the upcoming moves...which will be franchise altering.
So I get it...in spades.

That said, I'll cut him break on going through what I believe is a smart process to gather as much intelligence on his team, the league, strategies, tactics, draft prospects, etc.

He literally has this off-season to significantly alter the course of the past 10 seasons of crap...take as much time as he needs...through say July 2nd...then, the poop can hit the fan!

And, let me say this in advance...on say the 6th day of FA (July 6th-ish in normal offseasons)...if he hasn't wrapped up all the relatively major player related moves (Eichel, Rhino, Risto, Olo, etc)....then I'll be first in line to tar and feather that F-er...because very, very, very little historically happens untill Feb/March's TDL

Why some of that could happen at the draft

Excellent post.

I'd say if eichel has surgery or needs to wait/ plays a game ect. He may be moved between July-Oct

I'd like to give kagm some slack

If Eichel is smart and his agent isn't a complete moron, they bite the bullet and he stays until his NMC kicks in and he can demand to go where he wants but I honestly want him sent to the moon at this point so I would send him to the only place worse than here as soon as possible.

- Powerslave

Out of the rumoured teams, I’d say Arizona

Agreed
Maybe he was asking something different though?
I’m not sure
That’s just the way i interpreted it
- jdfitz77

Question is

Do teams in playoffs have to sign off on trades
I believe years ago they had say we have no problem and didn't want players involved

He has no choice until July 15th next year, If he is traded they have until then to work out the best deal. Let's get him healthy it will benefit the Sabres in any scenario.

- Boss34

Agreed Boss.
That is very reasonable based on medical conditions/treatments/recover periods.
That said, they just can't
Et his condition continue in uncertainty for long...else his value virtually diminishes rapidly. I guess what I'm saying relative to Jack's u pique situation is progress reports / communications on delays or extended timeframes will be critical.

Get him healthy.

Play him in blue and gold this year. He lights it up.

Winning, in any scenario.

Man Fluery is on.

I think the agreed upon twelve week window of rest and rehab is coming to a close here soon, isn't it?

Might be Arizona..or maybe Calgary.
Who wants to play in AZ..nobody...and Calgary is a dumpster fire us a cold Canadian out post for an American.

They at least have decent pieces on their team.

Yes, said late May early June.

Yup.
Then Richarding around for 2 -3 weeks, vacations, "missed" calls, more Richarding around, fax machine broken, Pigeons quiting, Yacht tests, Tennis matches, Bill's Team Mtgs.
You get the idea

N.O.
No.

- Buff36

So the draft is July 23-24.

That gives them roughly 8 weeks from the start of June, if they're entertaining thoughts of trading him (I'd imagine they'd want to do it by then).
