Double retain on VO would surprise me. Don't think he has the trade value to make a second retain worth the price of doing it.

Going to learn a lot in the next 3 weeks. Hope they nail it. Lot of decisions to be made.

I went outside and the sun got in my eyes:

One nice thing about Vegas winning: it should amp up pressure on NHL GMs.

- You can't just trade for a No. 1 C
- You can't just sign a top D
- You can't just trade for a Selke level gamebreaker like Mark Stone
- We don't have the cap space

Apparently you can, can, can and do.

Lotta top D available in FA this offseason

Mike Weber was hired to be an assistant coach with the Blues.

It's so easy to bash the Sabres for hiring guys who WTBH, but it would appear a lot of these picks are actually kinda good.

I mean you can do all of those things, and you're a dope if you thought you couldn't before Vegas made any of those deals.

A #1 center coming available is once in a blue moon.

Star wingers and defensemen? Come on. They're there. You just need to be at a place, organizationally, to be comfortable to use the assets required to get them.

And those players need to want to sign with you too.

Even the coaches use the Sabres as development organization to move on to other NHL jobs.

Dumba's name pops up as much as any name with my buddy.

I think there's some smoke.

Maybe just maybe the same issues that were described with Coaching in Minnesota that effected Greenway also effected Dumba?

Yes it is possible. But Dumba has gone through 4 head coaches.

What were we saying about Risto again?
