Robert Thomas, Tarasenko and a 1st for Risto is the counter offer?

This is why we need fans in charge of this team.

Disagree with that

I see two teams (Buffalo & St. Louis) need to hook up again! I think that the Sabres could use Robert Thomas and or Vlady Tarasenko (depending how far you want to go) for Jack Eichel and a draft pick.

All those in favor of Michael Pachla being named the new President and GM of the Sabres, say "aye"

I'm not entirely sure you wouldn't be the best GM we've had in decades. Just saying, don't turn it down if you're pushed forward lol.

I like Michael but i believe he wants results now and we would be back in a hole in 2 years when we could of did a rebuild

boomers and dead heads (and anyone else into music):

it's not hard to argue that the greatest trilogy of rock albums is let it bleed, sticky fingers and exile on main st. by the stones...

i could make a reasonable counter by saying dylan's bringing it all back home, highway 61 and blonde on blonde could rival that...

workingman's dead and american beauty are seminal albums...does aoxomoxoa pull them into at least an honorable mention?

Yup. It’s pretty clear to anyone with common sense on what direction we should go. Especially with what is in the 2022/23 drafts.

I’d actually prefer the Pegulas said nothing and left the hockey and football stuff to the the GMs. The only vision I care about is what is on the ice next season, I don’t have to ever hear from Kim or terry if we can get a good product on the ice, Adams vision is all that should matter, owners should sign the cheques and that’s it.

appreciate it, but there's no way in hell i'd name the present mp as gm of the sabres if i was the owner...start me out as a scout and in 15-20 years i might trust myself

i'm not familiar with the whole album (will be exploring it more,) but those two songs could definitely help pull them into the honorable mention category of the greatest rock trilogy

lindy ruff used "fresh start" on many occasions...am of the opinion top talent is not the cure-all many believe or were led to believe...high-end talent is great and necessary, but bringing high-end talent into a losing atmosphere does nothing--see eichel, jack and reinhart, sam

I think we would be building a winning culture. Guys that want to be here. Eager. A better foundation and prospects than before. When we hit our new Eichel in the next two drafts we will have a way better core.

Beniers
Eichel return
Sam return
Risto return

Way better than what Eichel walked into

Conservatives, at least on the surface, tend to take the position: "let me decide whether or not to do something, and let me live with the consequences of that choice." They're not necessarily always consistent in that mindset, as most human beings are hypocrites in at least one matter or another, but that's really the issue at stake here.

I can only speak for myself but I am one to avoid almost all medications whenever I can help it. I rarely take cough/cold medicines, and I haven't used Tylenol, Ibuprofen, or anything similar or equivalent in a long time. I haven't used allergy medication in years although I am higher on that scale. Full disclosure, I do have an albuterol inhaler that I use for working out since I have asthma, and I am also occasionally prescribed cream/ointment for eczema. I am very sporadic as to whether or not I get the flu shot (mostly because my doctor pushes it). Overall, though, the way I see it is the fewer 16+ letter ingredients that nobody can pronounce I put into my system, the better, not because of some conspiracy theory, but because I believe I will end up healthier that way.

Does this mean that I won't get the vaccine? I'm not sure yet. I caught "It" about a month ago so I am around 30 days into a 90-day period before I am supposed to get the shot (according to the CDC anyway) so I have some time. However, my approach to medication in general will weigh heavily into that decision. If I were older, obese, a diabetic, had chronic heart issues, or all of the above, I might look at it differently. However, I don't like either the carrot or the stick approaches that governments and private entities are rolling out, especially before any of them are FDA approved, which none of them are. There's a big difference between that and being allowed for emergency use. Most drugs that get that permission are used on patients that otherwise would most likely die because there is no other treatment available. That is not the case with the majority of the population.

Does that mean I think people shouldn't get it? No, as there are definitely many people who should. However, I'm also not convinced that forcing an unapproved drug on an entire population won't have consequences, intended or otherwise.

What were your symptoms like with COVID?

I have not taken the Flu vaccine since I was in high school, and I may not have taken the vaccine for COVID, but I thought of the impact I might have on some of my elderly loved ones and myself if I didn't take it, along with what it would mean for me and my wife in terms of travel, and those considerations made it an easy decision.

I had the first shot this past Friday, and the 2nd shot is scheduled to happen in 4 weeks.

If you had been the GM or coach when Reinhart and Eichel were brought in, would the atmosphere have been close to what Vegas, Tampa and Carolina have right now?
