Dude is a P.O.S. and won't play in the NHL again. The fact he got to take advantage of the player assistance program is shameful.

Looking closely at Galchenyuk and his stats… his draft year was also the year the Oilers took Yakupov #1 and Samson Reinhardt’s brother Griffin went # 4 to NYI…. What a crappy top 4

Adams big idea, allegedly...

When asked if bringing on Kane is Terry's big idea, the response was not so fast... 😳😳😳

>>> Reports have indicated Patrick Kane is looking to narrow his options & it sounds like the Sabres are willing to do a multi-year ask.

I discuss that & why it seems like an odd move based on what we know now.

Sabres Remain in the Conversation for Kane

https://www.expectedbuffa...rsation-for-patrick-kane/

>>> Multiple reports have indicated that free-agent forward Patrick Kane is getting closer to deciding where to play this season. The Buffalo Sabres remain in the conversation as a landing spot and I’d feel comfortable enough to say they are one of the frontrunners.

>>> ***Multi-year Deal***
I’ve heard from multiple sources that the Sabres are willing to give Kane a two-year deal. I’m not sure if it has been offered yet or if that is just what they’d be willing to do. I haven’t been able to confirm anything on salary, so I’ll leave that out for now.

Let me also be clear: this doesn’t mean Kane is going to be signing with the Sabres. I’m just sharing what I’ve been told is that they’re willing to meet the multi-year demands. There is still a lot to play out here before a decision is ultimately made.

>>> ***Organizational Depth***
Moving beyond the surgery, this doesn’t make a ton of sense from an organizational depth standpoint. Kevyn Adams has been adamant that he won’t bring in veteran players to block the development of others. ***In this scenario, he would be going rogue from that philosophy. This wouldn’t be a move that could be placed solely at the feet of owner Terry Pegula.***

Gotta wonder who thinks this is a good idea, and who is just going to say it is to keep their job.

Chad wrote and responded as if it is Adam's big idea.

Somebody asked if it was a Terry idea, and Chad said no so fast.

If this is Adams idea as is being hinted at, it reminds me of Ross in the first episode of Band of Brothers, when he (frank)s up in mock field combat, and says we should just go get 'em.

He attempted to draft a Kane 5 times, now he is just going to sign the real thing.

No 9ne knows except his Doctor.

Let's play devils advocate though...and believe meI have been against signing him expressly for the purpose of not blocking the 654 you gins in the pipeline.

That said, let's say he isn't himself anymore, rather 65% ... a RW who can post 50 -60 pts each over the next 2 years though?
Many 9nhere are wetting their shorts (or catch rags) for Mitts to post 55 again and sign him at $7m per over the long term.
It doesn't reconcile in my head

Joking aside, the Sabres weak spots right now are offense and veteran leadership. If the 1 or 2 year deals rumored to be offered are true, Kane would have the highest upside of any FA the Sabres have signed that I can remember.

There is a match, and IMO more positives than negatives to bringing him in.

He was on the low end of that last year.

They were terrified of Eichel's surgery, but are going to walk right into the risks of this one? It's track record isn't encouraging.

The fit on this team is also just terrible.
