Or not rushing the rebuild, develoling properly, and timing the moves right.
It isn 't time yet.
1 more year...then many years of contention. - IonSabres
What changes in a year? To go back to what Vanek said on the After the Whistle podcast:
"If you lose the first 12-13 games out of the first 25, and you’re under .500, well guess what, you’re already 8-9 points back already. And then what is it again? It’s another year of ‘well, our young guys need to get better’… I… I cannot stand that.”
So, what? We toss another record-setting year on the failure fire while the East gets older? Why? |

Out of curiosity, why is this offseason not the time to bring in one quality goaltender, defenseman, and forward?
What possible timeline is that messing up?
Wouldn't that trio of moves show the current roster players that management is serious about winning?
Is there really some kind of fear about paying other players before paying their own? |

given the fact there is a window for a goalie, a top 4 RD and a top 6 guy for 2 years
there is zero reason not to try to grab 3 guys to fill those holes and give this team a chance to compete and get out of the most miserable 11 year stench in the entire existence of the NHL history

Spending to the floor to bring in some vets to help this team would be the opposite of rushing things. Assuming all these kids make the jump, continue to progress and stay healthy, without any depth behind them is a dangerous recipe.

Or make like 2 trade to bring in a forward and a goalie. Don’t have to be big names just quality moves. |

Doesn't need to be big name players as UFA's either. Just quality players to support the kids. |

This organization learns all the wrong lessons from all the wrong people. They're now scared of actually trying. I've never seen anything like it. |

Maybe I'm crazy, but is Staal for Johansson the only real hockey trade KA's made?
This is his fourth trade involving future considerations. |

I mean that’s basically a 6th…
We have to see what the rest of the off-season brings.
I really am not expecting much.
I just want to see a goalie better than Anderson to go with Upl.
A 2 rd to put joker at 3rd.
That’s all really.
Re-signing olo
Long term re-sign on Tage would be a bonus to show commitment to players and maybe getting ahead of the curve on paying players they develop.
I don’t think those expectations are high.
When you kick it off with a cap dump, well… it kinda tells me to expect UPL & Subban in net. And re-signing Eakin… cause why try and get just a little better.
Oh well, bedman in ‘24 or bust |

I will be 32 years old in a month and I couldn't legally buy a beer the last time the Sabres were in a playoff game. This team operates on Aztec calendar timelines.
It's unbelievable |

Well if we trade that 7th for a pick in 2031 it should be worth a 5th by then, so bonus!! |
