Of course. And when Cozens and Dahlin decide they want to play for a better team I hope we get good prospects for them as well. Unfortunately we are creating that monster.

You know, not everyone is wired like Jack Eichel.

don't know if this was posted or not...beane being beane and collecting...more beans?

"The Buffalo Bills have traded defensive end and special teams standout Darryl "Bam" Johnson to the Carolina Panthers in exchange for a 2022 sixth round draft pick, the team announced on Monday."

If Carolina and Buffalo ever meet in the Superb Owl, will they just call it a tie and have a buffet at midfield?

I find this news very convenient. September start's tomorrow. Camp in mid September.

Expect some contract news on dahlin, tis the season.

Habs take the kk picks and parley them for eichel:

Caufield
2021 habs 1st unprotected
2022 habs and canes 1sts unprotected
2022 canes 3rd round pick
Shea Weber's dead man's contract to LTIR

Eichel

Imagine the Sabres shocking the world with a 15- 9-5 type start.

Does Eichel get his feet wet and practice with the team in January? Maybe not dress for game action

Train on his own and they've agreed to a Olympic return?

Or eichel jumps back in with the "C" .
Who really doesn't want to give such a great and elite talent 1 more shot.....

4 game road trip from Jan 25 - Feb 1 before the season breaks for the Olympics.

No home fans booing him. Tune up for team America

Maybe he could attempt to resurrect his career by switching to Tight End.

One of the games is against St. Louis.

That's very interesting: could unfold that way.

Just for the record, I'm not booing jackie unless he's not wearing the blue and gold.

Still feel like eichel has all time buffalo talent and could turn the Sabres around.

Am I the only one to feel this way? Seems like most posters are just sick of him.


Gonna save my booing for the florida Panthers....😉


Hot start could change everything. Gotta think about donnie and the USA connection.
I think the sitdown revolved around the Olympics. That was a huge sticking point. Benefits both sides tremendously, for jack to play and show off.

This is true, but we also need to realize this isn't the first time either. RoR didn't go about it the same way but he got out. Hall got to dictate his landing spot somewhat. Skinner put us over the barrel and we caved. We have to stop caving every time.

I agree with the Sabres making a point and standing up for themselves. I think they just proved it.

Unfortunately, the Sabres have to work with jack and his agent to keep his mouth shut, and play hockey.

Could trade him to a handful of teams 10-12 that jack prefers. * another poster suggested this.

keep him out of the cafeteria after hours

side note with Cam's contract

it cost the pats 1.5 mil for this year

so they would rather pay him 1.5 mil to stay gone vs staying in the locker room

These have nothing to do with Eichel.

Skinner put us over a barrel by what, scoring 40 goals?

Ugh....................... Players don't write there own contract, that is between the agents and the GM and ultimately it is on our GM.

I never, Never blame a player for signing a contract.
