The guy who said Johnson is signing at 2 is the same guy who only comes on saying, "press conference at 3pm," so paying any attention to him is wasting your time.

No offense to Gerbe, but, what has he broken before it happened? I was on with him when we called Taylor Hall to Buffalo before it happened, but, that was based on flight tracking that wasn't real. We though Hall was picked up and taken to Buffalo, but it proved erroneous in that COVID didn't allow Hall to leave Canada and he never did.

In football it is. And that 1st ended up being the best WR in the league

Based on responses, Savoie was the most popular pick at 9, Yurov at 16 and Miro at 28. All of those were the most popular at their respective selections, and they were one of two duplicate answers.

If that is indeed the likeliest outcome, that's a damn good day imo

Jefferson is 6 years younger. And put up those stats with a worse QB. I take all the factors into account

Chase is pretty good as well with a younger qb

For me it's simple. You're not going to make the Playoffs for the first time and win the cup in the same year. It aint happening. You have to lose a series to learn how to make a run. Bringing in Kane does a couple things:
1. It all but guarantees were playing meaningful games to the wire if we have anyone but a stiff in net. This excellerates development of the youngsters who have never played a playoff series because they'll get one this year.
2. You have a HoF playmaker to set Quinn next to his rookie year
3. Because it's Kane and not just another future HoFer, you get 41 sell outs.

Sell outs are fun. I go to games. I want a full crowd. I want playoffs.

Oh, so it’s about YOU. I see.

Let’s say KA brings in your hero. You’re wearing a Kane jersey to every home game in October and November. But, wait. It’s. Christmas time. They’re 30 points out of a playoff spot. Now, you’re in a repeat of the Taylor Hall situation, where you have to trade him at the deadline.

Are you prepared for that?

If that's the case then I want him to know they should stop being cheap with season ticket holders in re actual printed out invoices and physical tickets. I don't want a litany of BS excuses. I want a professional book of my tickets with tickets I can keep in a scrapbook...like I'm actually dealing with a professionals. When I buy or sell a home, I get a professional survey on fancy paper. Anytime you deal with a lawyer you get more fancy paper than you can shake a stick at. Try and get a real ticket from the Sabres and they try and make you feel like you're a villain. Stuff like that matters.

I keep going back and forth on him. I wanna buy in on the talent, but his even strength work was kinda pedestrian.

I have far more faith in Pat Kane and a goalie than you. He'd be our best player by some margin.

Either way, my tickets are bought. I'd be there.

Man, for being such a low brow, low class region, Western New Yorkers sure are high maintenance when it comes to their Sabres tickets.

broke hall doing the flight pattern thing - i ws here with him. That turned out 100% wrong, so lucked into the Hall thing. In saying that, it seems he's broken other things

I really wish they weren't picking behind Detroit (and Chicago). Winning that final game is probably going to sting shortly.
