Now who’s moving goalposts

You legitimately sat here days ago and said “Oh im with you guys it’s time to go for it”

And now you’ve spent all of today making wild excuses as to how the Sabres actually have no more holes and are all set.

Just crazy behavior because deep down you know this guy is totally gun shy

No, and this is where your reading comprehension breaks down. I said in very clear terms that this offseason *so far* is not a home run. At some point this offseason and even before the trade deadline, it is time to put the pedal down. I don't see any holes. If you're that worried that Cliffton can't play another 3 minutes a night, I don't know what to tell you. If UPL doesn't hack it, you send him on his way. The league year started yesterday, for crying out loud. You guys have all set the roster and have seen how it is going to play out. Is UPL a concern if he is the second goalie? Sure, of course. Looking across the league, I can't really see too many rock -solid #2 goalies.

What about the starting goalie who never played in the AHL and only logged 35 games per year in college? I mean cmon, we are asking this kid to be a starting goalie with precisely zero lead time. That's not fair to him.

And I’m sorry, but that’s such a bat poop crazy opinion to have of a team that not only wasn’t a cup contender, but wasn’t even a playoff team.

Yeah 1yr, we didn't need that

I think his contract sets the market for Tarasenko’s one year deal now. It should happen quickly

Yeah 1yr, we didn't need that
- Buff36

He won’t be cheap next year either.

Makes sense. All the top guys going one year,
Wait on cap expansion

Right? I mean c'mon

I would have taken that 1yr deal with him. I would have taken Duchene at1yr 3mill. Hey but we got Olofsson

Well, hopefully Adams is just waiting for dust to settle on UFA’s before he executes some trade offers

Gets us the push we need and takes some pressure off guys like JJ

I think all the “we love our goalies” is a load of poo.

If he loved all of our goalies ….. then why has every goalie rumor involved with Adams snooping around?

Opportunities missed this year, I hope Adams does to.

Cause we have needed a goalie since he's been here!!

Yeah 1yr, we didn't need that
- Buff36

That one bothers me.

He would've been a great add to the 2nd line with Cozens centering him, especially on a one year deal. (frank).

That's not true, we had a goalie when he got here.

Also no GM or coach is going to say

“We love Levi but those other 2 goalies suck”

OK but then don't say it, do something about it

Yeah, I said earlier today he might be looking for a 1yr deal. Would have been a great add

That's not true, we had a goalie when he got here.

Trying to block that out

No holes on this team though.

Not like NJ or Toronto who have a ton of holes on offense….
