Im tired of the excuses of why we cant acquire talent now.

All this assumes Power is an all star in two years and is not signing a bridge deal.

Get Robertson now, worry about 2 years in 1.75 years.

Not the Sabres Way!!

I’m with you! The salary cap seems like a sad joke in the NHL anyways.

Don’t wanna become the Leafs either though
Having a plan (especially for the Cap) isn’t a bad thing
It’s a key component to team building

Do you guys think Adams has a plan? Is it the same as Granato's plan?

Ongoing discussions between the Stars and Jason Robertson. Seems like a major shift is going to have to occur for Robertson to start the season in Dallas. Still time to get something done.

Dallas needs a plan

Does JJP start the season in Rochester, or up with the Sabres?

getting Robertson blocks us from getting old and broken down players who are well past their "best by" date

Technically you aren't wrong. But you need to say it like it's a problem.

He did not look the part last night. I would be completely fine trading him ina package for Robertson.

If not he starts in Roch. Hinostroza won himself a spot last night on the opening night lineup

Not many teams can afford a 8- 9 million dollar player.

The stars … They will have to dump a 5 million dollar player to give some cap flexibility with call ups and stuff like that.

I know it's not the easiest thing to dig into, but Khudobin will likely go to LTIR so that flexibility isn't a thing. 7.8m space today + 3.3m to sign Robertson + 2 open roster spots (that they don't have to use).

It's not that difficult for this season, but there are long-term implications.

I know it’s only preseason. But joker and Peterka have been the worst players on the ice

Jokiharju. By far the worst player on both teams last night... and we played 2/3 of an AHL team

The #Bills and WR Tavon Austin have agreed to part ways, as
@SalSports
reported. Austin was on Buffalo’s practice squad. Will now seek an opportunity for more playing time elsewhere.

That means he wasn't going to be elevated for this weekends games...
