Is this one of your posts you don't really believe...just throw it out there to debate?
Ducks had 17 wins with Comtois puting up 16/17/33, good for 49 pt pace over 82.
Take that off the team as the leading scorer...no decrease the number of wins accordingly; -3, -5?
That woul mean Jack would have to win an additional 10 games over what they lost with Comtois...so 13, 16 wins.
It isn't happening, and they just took 2 more of their top assets away.
Good news, they would be in the Shane Wright derby next season though. |

What you said and what I put in quotations mean precisely the same thing. What a waste of time. GMTM making bad decisions doesn’t mean every trade with multiple pieces being exchanged for an undeniably premium asset is a bad one. Eichel is elite, and can be the cornerstone of a franchise and I assure you, 32 GM’s are very conscious of that fact. - SoCalPucks
You continue to debate that Jack is better than 1 of the 3...now try putting 3 against 1
It isn't close. |

It sucks we’ve gotta “rebuild” again
But it seems like we’re at that point unfortunately - jdfitz77
I agree, I just wanted to make sure that post came off as I was sick of the idea of a rebuild, not at what you were saying. |

This. We have a ton of assets 22 and under and we should be getting a couple more premium pieces. I am actually looking forward to it. - Slump Buster
This is tough for me because I remember the years of Grigorenko, Zads, Girgs, Risto when they were new here and we looked terrible at Traverse City.
Everyone thought we were stacked.
I THINK it's different now but am not sold. |

Yea until he demands a trade to Boston or New York 24 months from now and they are watching Zegras and Drysdale in Sabres jerseys.

We don’t need to be convinced though….
Only the Ducks GM (and owner i guess) need to think Eichel can make a difference for them |

Bingo. Kevin Adams only needs to consider what is best for the Sabres. If Anaheim wants Eichel, they have to pay.
If they don't, KA is not the person for the job. |

Oh well |

Can't disagree there. They do have to play hardball a bit here. |

Or commit to a full tear down and go for it when Zegras and Drysdale are 22/23 years old - Pegullaville
It's beyond me why anyone would possibly think they could contend after finishing with 43 points...only 39 behind the Presidents Trophy winner.
Jack is great. He isnt anywhere near that great. |

The Traverse City Tournament reference is awesome - I remember that tournament. Yeah, I think those prospects were younger then. That's also the result of not having prospects - we were so invested in the few that we had. |

Let’s say you’re right, & the Ducks are just lying to themselves….
Why do we care?
That’s their problem, not ours |

i think its been granato since day one and we are getting a facade of a wide open search for a few reasons
1) get adams some insights from around the league
2) delay until eichel is dealt with
3) show the fans we are really being exhaustive!!11 - robz228
This, very much so.
Wonder if they sniff around town or somehow see what fan reaction would be to hiring donnie?

We thought and were led to believe we were loaded though. We were all in shock when that happened. Then we showed a propensity to NOT develop properly.
If we're going full rebuild, I don't think we are but we COULD be that crap better be fixed.
We have done nothing to help players develop at all. |

So you don’t think Bob Murray is sitting there thinking that in 12 months Eichel can tell him to Frank off too ?

No, as there isn't a history of losing there

Jack Eichel is absolutely that great.
However, for the Sabres to get market value for him it would take a team to blow up their entire roster to put them in a similar position the Sabres are in now.
Hence why it’s going to be the Joe Thornton trade 2.0 |
