It’s OK it’s a development year!! We don’t need to win. And a fact the lower we go the better off we are; it’s supposed to be a good and deep draft.

I certainly hope Sabres make an effort towards the playoffs. And not have these attitudes like so many here have.

Adams isn’t speeding anything up with the rebuild. I wouldn’t expect much at the deadline

Chick-run or Timo fit the long term

Adams is not getting a rental to appease the masses

If the kids make playoffs. Amazing. If they don’t. They are proving we still have a good core in place

You just keep doubling down on dumb. Vic and Mitts have both been talked about as trade bait the entire season. Vic since the moment hw signed the contract he is on. Yeah, no reason to ask about them. Let me ask you, "How do you feel about the fans coming back to the KBC?"

Honestly i dont care. These guys get paid millions of dollars. Owners are pretty much all billionaires. There not getting my money. I dont own a jersey. Ill go to a game once in a while for my own pleasure.

Im not lining the pockets of millionaires and billionaires. If thats your thing cool.

From a friend of a friend

Sabres trade talksi are between the 3 g.m.'s

Then they have meetings once a week with
Pro scouts
Amateur scouts
And talk about players that are available and cost

Then back to 3 in the room

As deadline gets closer more meetings

So what guy says
Unless you know one of the 3
It's all speculation

Maybe they like this player
Maybe they have talked
But he says it just Adams doing his job

Said Adams would fire anybody releasing information


If you listen to Friedman weeks or Darren
They haven't had anything on sabres

So maybe guy is correct

You do understand leaks can come from the other teams? Adams calls Team X to ask about a player then the GM of team X puts it out there. There is two parties involved not just one.

Why would team X put it out there? To drive up the price like Arizona did with LA and Clarke.

Yes sir

Absolutely

But is a rumor or Adams saying hey what's the cost you looking at ?


My 2¢

The closer you get to deadline and more meetings
More people involved
Somethings might leak

I found this not too long ago. If you didn't know it existed, tell your ears they're welcome. I looked up the setlist, and it looks like the video was edited because they opened with London Calling. I think they should've opened with this.

Wyshynski on with S&BD today was raving about Ace Ventura.

Called him one of the smartest people in the game

Just hope he has a heavy influence.

I didn't know they had a 3rd GM. Strange that some of these guys have stayed around through multiple GM's and changed titles multiple times.
