Kirby Dach for a mid first? He moves the needle for you?
- Slump Buster

No, my point is you’re acting like it’s not possible to acquire a player who’s contributing now AND in 2-3 years from now

I am not even talking about Chicago. Sabres could have beat that Cat deal by the way, and other than money it wouldn't have hurt are future. Sabres had plenty of ammunition to build for the future while helping there team now.

Jeff Skinner contract.

Also, obviously others weren't knocking down their door given the questionable return.

I’d have taken a shot at him.
Played in the same team as Cozens and Krebs.

Felt like the Sabres blew the extra pick last year and did it again this year. Rosen and Ostlund. Enough with the Swedes. Would’ve been happier with Snuggerud or one of the Russians THAT WERE aTthedRafT

I just dont get this. Dude is 24. 24. Do you think he'll be bad at 27?
- lacaprup



I had no interest in trading multiple 1sts and a 2nd for him , which it would of cost us with our draft positions. Wingers are available every year via trade. If that’s the route KA wants to go, he can do it any year he chooses

No. No it wouldn’t have.
He went for 7 and another pick.

It would have been 9, another pick and like a 3rd.

Is not an arguement for anything but a cheap, poor owner. The Buffalo Sabres have more cap space than any team in the NHL. They have no contract issue. Next fake reason you don't want a 40 goal 24 year old?

Ottawa is not winning a cup next year why did they make the trade?
- ImThatGuy


Their about a year ahead of us.

Sabres stumbled and fumbled for 5 years and fell behind...trading out their young talent for futures. Those futures to haven't arrived yet. It is what it is. You can be pissed at the stumbling and fumbling, but don't misplace it to rush the process.

Relax, be patient.

Skinner contract is far worse then Murray’s. Skinner is going to be an Okposo like anchor in a few years

Lol... not a single player we draft this year will ever touch DeBrincat and you're worried about two 1sts and a 2nd. Wow.

He slapped us in the face with it, wrapped it in sh!t and threw it on Harbor Center's front walk way. People should be embarrassed by that.

1 pick away - would think Lambert has to be enticing. Chesley would be absolutely fantastic here too
