Prolly a lot more than Bryson ever could, though. And is Stillman a panzy? He's got more hits and fights than I've had hot lunches. And predicting who is on the ice at any time, as if the other team won't know there's a fighter on our bench, is just....lazy.
- LandlordTom


3 fights in and hes lost 2 decisively and the other he wrestled the guy to the ice.

Bryson couldn't do worse.

#4 he got pumped by Trouba

July? That's a bit outdated
- Wanchuk

ppg player this year as well

so he did not regress

plus prospects graduated so he is probably top 10 prospect easily before the draft if we kept him

You said this. I asked you to explain and you refused.

Then stop making poop comments at me.

If Bloom was the BPA at the time and then Adams trades him away for a borderline NHLer then Adams needs to fire the scouts and get new ones.

Trading away a prospect for someone you can get for a 5th is just bizarre.

Then you seem to claim that the prospect isn't any good yet Adams took him as the BPA.

We should just stop because you aren't making sense.

If the BPA is always a forward then you have a huge hole in your prospect system like we do now.

So Stillman is -14 on a poopty Vancouver team. If he takes over for Bryson's -26 on a decent Sabres team and can add grit and maybe keep asshats from cheapshotting our stars, I'm good with the trade all day long.

**** he’s only played in half of Vancouvers games.

Has he played for the Sabres yet ? no. Calm down
- SABRES 89


No, but he's played enough elsewhere to seriously question if this was just nepotism by Adams...that's not good.

Lol…..


Per Frank Serivelli

Sources: #NHL sent memo to 32 GMs today advising that acquiring injured players at the deadline to stash them on cap until playoffs will be “closely scrutinized” for cap circumvention.

This might take Nyquist and Henrique out of play, unless they can come back before end of szn.

I thought if he didn't improve his stats year to year in the CHL that was regression? That's what everyone has been saying about Savoie.

and if he stunk, why did they already sign him to nhl contract?

You seem to have blind faith, good for you.

Its not rocket science when Adams takes a 4th round pick in the 2nd round he ain't the BPA

- sabresfan69


i absolutely do not have blind faith. what i meant by the objective of the draft is for the team to draft the team's bpa. Yes it's a lot of forwards, i didn't like it, but they picked a lot of guys with high ceilings.

pick more defensemen.
