Your values are skewed as you are comparing Reinhart's value as a rental compared to assets locked up long term.

Tuch and Krebs both individually had the value of a 1st round pick.
- Mentalorgasm5

He’s already told the media that he’s picking / using all 3 picks.

Obviously the Sabres / Adams can’t say the 1st round picks are for sale and look weak.

Adams saying we want to use all the picks is saying to the hawks that you better pay up

Shane wright isn’t a great number 1 overall pick talent. But the draft is strong and deep in the first round
- Sabretooth9

Don’t think he’s interested in trading for other teams problems. To trade a 1st it’s usually for a good player, other than maybe cap, why do teams trade good players for picks? Because they want out. Team isn’t ready for some other teams drama yet. We don’t even know who our Cpt is going to be next year.

Draft the players, make a few small trades. Reassess at deadline. We have tons of FA money. Adam’s wants people who want to be here, if they do they can sign with us. He wants to see who wants to be part of this core

He needs to put the crack pipe down.

Why the numbers are there, Jesus they had a 2 goal or better lead in 12gms and lost them.

And? Good teams lose 2 goal leads all the time. Hell it happened tonight FFS. They lost those games because they're a bad team AND they had bad goaltending. Pretending adding a goalie and a defenseman are going to make everything all right is delusional.

We were 21st in scoring.

It’s not like we’re a top 10 offensive team yet

Not totally blaming it on the goaltending, the team folded around them in a lot of those games. But better goaltending would have helped.
- Buff36

Sure. I just think the effect is easy to exaggerate. Average goal scoring would have had almost the same effect. Granted, you could see them improve offensively late in the season, where as there's no reason to expect any improvement out of Anderson or Tokarski.

Sure they do, but I doubt it's 12 in a year. Never said they weren't a bad team. But they were a young team learning and you could see that by the end of the year cause those games didn't happen as much. And who said adding a G and D will make everything all right. It doesn't help everything, but it would sure help.

Sure scoring more would help immensely, but your still losing games were you already had a 2 goal or better lead. Good teams win 8 out of those 12gms. Good teams win 11 of those 16gms you had a lead in going into the 3rd

No, it does not. Goalie helps a ton.

We have a cheaper kane named skinner. Money can / should be spent elsewhere

I know a few of those are FLA. It just felt inevitable.

You see how McDerp completely gave up on the backcheck on that OT goal? What a goon. They deserve to lose the series.

Does Cutter Gauthier come into the picture at 9 now. Really gonna be a wild draft. All these different projections on prospects.

I like Dan Smith, BYU.

If he's not there, definitely Hingle McCringleberry.

KMK does a new commercial for Stitch Fix, where he talks about how he wants to dress his different personalities, and I wanted so bad for one of his personalities to be Hingle McCringleberry. Woulda been (frank)ing GOLD, Jerry.

Say we blow it up and just let Dingle McGroartaberry run the show
