Seriously, take your time with the comebacks.

1. Think them over
2. Write em down
3. Read it out loud
4. Start over.

And while you're reading outloud, listen for goalie names and repeat them as something you heard☝️

Sure Kevin Weekes and some of his ideas, yeah stuff I heard or read. Did I say this came from my friend. Hey as soon as you could you jumped on my post, might as well return the favor

Well isn't that something we all might want to hear, that maybe Kevyn doesn't do anything but atleast he is still talking to people. Maybe I am wrong!! Apologies

He has his hand in multiple cookie jars but most likely will not pull out a cookie and pass all together.

driving to the airport earlier today and had the nhl radio on

one guy was talking about his time with phil espo on the radio back in the day

he said that Phil would tell stories about how talking with some gm's for trades was really a waste of time because they talk and talk and follow up with 10 more phone calls and nothing happens. Then Phil would talk about gm's like brian burke where a trade could happen with a 10 minute phone call

my guess is Adams is not like Burke was

- homiedclown


If Adams was like burke, we would have brad may and his kid playing for this franchise.

Burke the harvard law graduate traded for mayday 3 or 4 times in the nhl.

Guy was /is brilliant.
Same goes for brian burke ☝️

Levi is KA's GUY.

A prime example of what you were pretending hasnt happened.

- Boss34


How many games has he played for the Sabres?

Our goaltending still sucks like it did last year, like it did the year before that. Who was GM?

Awful. At least firefighters take care of their own. They will fundraise. His/her family will be cared for.

Kevin weeks did tweet out a lot of goalie names including upl. As a former goalie I’m sure he wants to stir up the goalie market

KA inherited a good goaltending situation, made it worse, and kicked the can. Maybe Levi will make us forget that it ever happened.

Nice that you left most of my post out.

You're a good poster and frustrated.

You realize it's not easy adding a top 20ish or 16 type goalie.

The good ones aren't available, the medium good ones dont want to play in buffalo. Maybe that changed, but you understand why a goalie wouldnt like our system or young defenseman.

You're looking for a unicorn.

Draft, develop and trade when we have a legit cup chance.

Levi is the most unique prospect in years. Cant remember anyone that appears ready for nhl stardom in years. Maybe miller?

1st of all I'm not rich roma.

Second of all, you certainly weren't the guy that "outed" me.

Ion suggested it
Homie ran with it
You took credit for undercoving it.


He trolls you guys that deserve it.

Ever notice Rich refers to the Sabres as" you guys".

It's likely a Toronto fan...

UPL could turn out to be a very good goalie. as it stands He’s one of the worst goalies in the NHL. He needs a solid two years of development. I’d rather he not get that on the NHL club competing for a playoff spot.


that injury history is a bit of a concern.

No, no I'm looking for someone who is playing for Boston. Someone whom Kevyn Adams failed to properly evaluate and properly pay. The position remains a blackhole on the team with no prospects of that changing until 3 seasons from now. That's as bad a job as anyone could possibly do on the single most important position in the sport.

Top 5 GM
