I don't blame Adams.

What should a GM say about a player who has turned his back on the franchise, the team and his teammates?

If he does it on the next team dude is going to get his tracksuit thrown in the shower.

Did you listen to that conference? You don't need to be a body language expert to 'hear' what was said. And it was strong.
- TheSabresTaco


I'm not on either side and st this point I have no problem with Jack being traded and think Jack has been kind of a punk and that's what I meant by we have no idea with what has been said. I have a feeling KA is sick of his crap.

Nope. I waited out my bans and decided to start fresh. I won't use anything but this from now on. Godzilla Singular Point anime had my favorite Godzilla character, Jet Jaguar basically as the main character, and he was named "Jet Jaguar PP" by the end of the series. I used Jet Jaguar BD so people knew it was me.

But yeah. I mean. It sucks, but I called this like 3 or 4 years ago. After Bylsma and ROR, and Jack's pissy attitude after every single game, I knew this wiener was gonna pull this sh!t.

He's a wanker from Boston. They're all exactly the same. I think they come off an assembly line. Everyone knows Boston can't reach around on itself enough.

- Jet Jaguar BD


I know a few low level people directly affiliated with the Sabres and someone with intimate knowledge of their affairs on the outside. Not one of them say nice things about Jack the person. And it disappoints me every single time.

The GMs know it. The Sabres know it. The fans know it. And it was a question at the 2015 draft.

Makes you really think about his lack of development this year. Massive red flag.

A professional that wanted out would simply give company lines in any publicized forum, like Ristolainen honestly. Basically, where ever I am, I'll bust my ass. Say what you want about the player, but I've always respected the man. And that continued post trade.

- TheSabresTaco

I cannot stress this enough. I like Ristolainen because of how he handled the whole thing. He didn't put the organization on blast, he didn't throw any teammates under the bus, he didn't deflect blame; he shouldered all of it.

Jack went on full blast. He completely burned any and all bridges he could, basically lied about an injury and was even willing to get an experimental surgery if they called his bluff on it. This guy has been a bloody tampon in the bottom of the shower for the entire time he's been here.

Hey we agree

I like the way Risto handled too. Like I said, Eichel's next team is going to be watching the poop Eichel is pulling. If he doesn't knock it off he will get the tracksuit in the shower business.

Dach is a big boy probably wouldn’t be terrible at 53 and is a position of need. Raty still stands out to me - a good time to take a risk on the kid who I have ranked 15
