Promises can be broken.

Contracts cannot.

Would any other soon to be college free agent players ever consider Buffalo again?

Broken promises = bad vibes

What's the difference, unless we overpay by 2mill nobody considers us anyway.

How many college free agents actually make an impact worth caring about? Very few is my guess.

Levi aint getting better playing once a week if that. He's had 3 good games. The rest he's not been up to par.

6k is a better use of the salary cap for this season

If he waited, does anyone good guarantee him an NHL job to sign?

If that's what KA did, fire him.

it's common to stick with the big club and burn the first year of the deal with those 2 weeks in the nhl though

Just think what Adams could have Done with good use of that wasted 11mill in Cap. Beaner did a nice job with that 14mill

I dont mind KA telling him he can have all the chances to be the guy. Especially after the end of the year last year. But at some point those chances are up and you gotta go to Roch if the production/consistency isn't there. And the consistency has not been there.

Sure, burn a year, no big deal there.

If his hands are tied this year, that's horrendous.

Justin Schultz is the only guy in recent memory I can think of off the top of my head. Coming up on 700 games, has 305 points.

Feces has had some good seasons, but not the impact that Schultz has

They should have brought in a a good Mentor who could have been a 1B. Sabres never help there prospects out with good Leadership and mentorship. Would really like to see how much better Dahlin would probably be at this point if he had the right Partner and Mentor. They don't have that with there forward group. The Leadership that is supplied to these youngins have did nothing but lose on the ice.

Per ATW:

- Granato believes in his conviction/compete approach. He’s been preaching this for over a year, Paul doesn’t think the players will get it. Granato finally yelled at the players between the 2nd and 3rd in the Peg.
- Krebs doesn’t want to take on the 4th line role and is upset
- per Hamilton, Cozens is upset with how he’s been used and hates the bubble
- they all agree R Johnson should stay
- Power needs to be properly coached
- Paul thinks Granato should bring Rob Ray on the ice during practice to teach the kids how to fight/protect yourself

And much more, I found those interesting

He didn't get the full bag for last year, it's pro-rated. Someone who knows the CBA better than I do may know better, but I find it impossible to believe that owners would agree to paying out a full year's wages for ~20 days of work.

KA had to sign Levi

Maybe promised too much, but we would all be disappointed if he jetted on the Sabres

You mean adams would have looked like a fool if he jetted
