most of the time yes.

They are insiders for a reason.
Especially SabressInsderrr.

he is definitely in the know.

You do realize there only job is to get people talking... They don't get paid by breaking news about players/teams/etc.

I don't believe a thing I've heard out of any insiders mouth until it comes to fruition. Unless its WOJ for Basketball. That guys only job is to break news about the NBA lol

Endless laughing emoticons, lurking the Sabres thread cause they have nothing better else to do with their time on a Thursday afternoon.

Either that or you and your buddy Cptjml or whatever really need to find a hobby or build a stronger inferiority complex to not effect what opposing fan bases have to say about your teams

Fans of bad teams don't like to see other teams that were similarly bad go and get better and have some success while their team continues to flounder. They're miserable and they want others to feel the same way. Not all fans but each base has their fair share of lunatics who think like that. Including many on this board

I want the ISlanders to win the cup. Fvck the 3 other teams. They deserve nothing. Especially Vegas.

Because people they have interviewed are now saying they have no idea what is going on.

Edit i forgot, you are the guy who believes in everything the Sabres do and feel that if they haven't interviewed me yet for teh head coach job then they arn't doing their job.

The thing about the Sabres since the Pegulas took over is how wildly unpredictable they are. LaFontaine is back. Teddy is back. LaFontaine is gone.

If today at 3 o'clock they said Thomas Vanek bought into the Sabres as minority owner and is also head coach, I'd say "yep that tracks"

Luke r!chardson watch.

Why hasnt anyone connected luke to the pegula's and Sabres? They were very fond of him a few coaches ago and met with him.

Still in the playoffs- Sabres havent named a coach. 🤔

Nah no inferiority complex I just like calling out guys like you and your BS. Also looks like my Thursday afternoon schedule is similar to yours

Let me clarify some things (not that it matters to you, but I want to clear the air).

I tend to be an optimistic type, especially with my sports teams. I live just outside Buffalo, after all.

On the same hand, I also disagree with them not hiring a POHO, but I don't believe for one second that Kim is sitting there "instructing" the GMs we've had who to trade for, who to draft, who to sign, etc. She's not poring thru the Hockey News yearbook pointing at players on other teams, saying, "What about him? He's cute!" Are the GMs keeping the owners in the loop? Well, duh.

I also don't blame Adams for the last decade. I'm going to let the man do his job. He'll be judged in another year, two, but I'm not going to second guess every "supposed" move or non-move he makes right now because ONE GUY posts something on Twitter to get a rise out of people. Very little leaks out of that arena, unlike when Murray was in charge.

We can disagree, and that's fine.

Oh so you saw me in the Isles threads too ? Interesting.

I do respect the fight in the dog that the Isles have.

You’ll never see me say though that they aren’t lucky to be in the position they are in this year.

Don't really care if these guys got a call back about not getting the job, isn't stopping any of them from taking other interviews. I doubt there sitting on the edge of there bed waiting feverishly for the Sabres to ring there phone.

Perhaps Adams is merely trying to confuse his fellow GMs

Wouldn't mind taking a swing at Connor Garland, doesn't sound like negotiations are going very well in Arizona.

His predicted next deal is 3 to 4 years at $4.6M per.

Be extremely subtle even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent's fate.


Or he's just stalling
