Tank/stank/tank/stank/tank/stank/tank/stank/ eventually the stank needs to be made the playoffs, but we can’t seem to pull that off.
Easy explanation why:
Terrible drafting
Terrible trades
Terrible acquisitions
Terrible coaching
No Senior leadership to right the ship

whos injured? or did we get that 1st for Miller?

Miller went on IR

Yes, exactly. Unfortunately, neither player is Crosby. They are not natural leaders

I would liken Eichel and McDavid to Tavares.
Great players, incapable of leading or saving a franchise, will be greater players on a loaded team. McDavid being superior in talent, but similar paths career wise thus far

He’s a UFA after this season
They certainly aren’t Cup contenders, and they’re pretty far out of a playoff spot
Might as well get some assets for him

What's Hagg get us at the TDL? A 4th?

It will be interesting to see what the Flyer's get for him.

Samuelsson in for Miller, who's been place on the IR.

boy...idk...i really think mcjesus is extremely close to crosby territory, if not right there...he's an amazing talent with amazing drive...i'm not sure what's up with edmonton but for me, he's in that generational range

Skinner-Thompson-Tuch
Hinostroza-Krebs-Okposo
Asplund-Cozens-Olofsson
Bjork-Eakin-Hayden

Dahlin-Jokiharju
Samuelsson-Pysyk
Hagg-Butcher
Dell in goal.

Why is Meatballs playing those 3 scrubs while sitting Murray and Jankowski? A better scrub line would be Bjork, Jankowski- Murray. Murray and Jankowski could be part of the Sabres organization moving forward (Amerks/13th forward) and Bjork by default. Eadin and Hayden obviously not.

Obviously we need a RH defenseman for next year & going forward

Who would take Risto back, if we could sign him for something like 3.5mil per season on a UFA deal ?

Dahlin-Jokiharju
Power-Risto

I’m sure ppl would like to do better than Risto,
but that could end up costing twice as much

Oh, hell no. I want no part of him. We have enough Dmen who are a train wreck in their own end.

Hard pass, and I like Risto. But they need a RD that can play defense and help cover for Dahlin or Power's mistakes, not have Power trying to cover for Risto's.

I'm sure he shares the same sentiment towards the Sabres.

it's a discussion i'm not ready to have...yet...am of the opinion that mcjesus isn't quite there

Certainly doesn't have the longevity, but you can make a very strong case that peak-McDavid is better than peak-Crosby already.
