If we gave up savoie and a 1st for Chychrun….. we would all have been mad at Adams for overpaying

I rather have savoie and benson over chicken - man.

Who put this guy in charge of what everyone thinks?

To assume the same outcome and draft position if a transaction like that was made is dumb.

are the sabres still a bare bones organization a few years later?
- homiedclown


No, they are building from the ground up. They have paid played they want to be here long term and saved cap space for Dahlin and powers to comfortably sign.

They did basically a complete rebuild.

This time they found success …. Unlike last time where Terry told time to rush it. Then we traded for evander kane oreilly etc

That didn’t work

the lack of plan B given levi's size scares me

did not take long for the league to figure out how to score on Binnington who is weighs next to nothing with a couple of inches on levi

- homiedclown


I'm not worried about size, I'm worried about having a competent veteran behind him because UPL checks no (frank)ing boxes.

The bruins have aged out

Tampa has shown signs of aging more to wear and tear on the tires / injuries.

Toronto will always be a major wildcard due to them being the leafs

- Sabretooth9


The Bruins got younger

Tampa will have more rest this offseason after 3 consective SC runs and a 7 game battle with the leafs.

The leafs are a lock for playoffs

Are you trying to come off as moronic or what?

Terry said that, but Adams yes manned his way through that situation
- washedup20


I'm not quite sure who was steering the ship that year. Terry, Ralph or Kevo.

It's a toss up for sure, but Kevyn was right there.

lol the bruins got younger? Did you see what scrubs they signed. 😂😂. Go look at how terrible their offense is with Bergerson and kreji retiring.

Tampa: yes they don’t suck but they also are slowing down and arent as deadly as 2-3 years ago. Injuries and age are coming

Leafs will always be the leafs. I hate their offseason signings.

Missing playoffs by 1 point with have the worst goaltending in the NHL (including other teams backups) and basically with bunch of kids playing.

I think they did pretty decent.

They also found their core that they want to build around

Have an absolutely loaded prospect pool

I mean the more you cry. The more you look bad crying.

You said they aged out, your words.

Last year their average age was 29, this year its 28.

Your opinion holds no value as your posts are filled with false assumptions, but keep trying.

Complete rebuild? The key pieces of this lineup were here when KA took over, minus Tuch and Power.

Success right now is because they didn't need to rebuild.

I'm also curious about the comment that they found their core.

Is the core any different before last season compared to after last season?

No. You can’t fix stupid but you can teach positioning.

See: Ullmark, Linus

His biggest issue here was positioning. Took them over a year to fix, but the goalie coaches in Boston made him a Vezina winner.

- Jet Jaguar BD

Ullmarks issues is rebound control and movement. That was largely masked by team defense

Agreed, they continue to draft top 6 forwards.
