Do you submit a QO to Krebs this summer? What would that be, he'll be 23, RFA, fresh off of getting paid $863,333.

Well we can officially say Gerbe is full of poop

I'd submit a trade offer to get him outta here.

Adams doesn't know how to close.

Look at this garbage list of UFA signings, every single one of them was an overpay:

Every single free agent signing is an overpayment

Guess I don't remember the interest in battling or defense from him.

I see the same things. Getting to the front of net a bit, engaging in board battles. I don't how it starts or why it ends, but we've seen it many times. I don't think it's his nature and taking a few hits reminds him of that.

How aboot Philly, GM's 1st year - went out and signed high character players and are in a playoff spot.

Are they more talented, why didn't they chase potential?

Who did they bring in aside from Hathaway?

GM Danny B signed Hathaway, 2 years @ $2,375,000. That is not an overpayment and he has immediate positive impact.

There are plenty of examples, none that were signed by Adams.

$874,125 is the requirement. Don't think there's any question at that number. Work out a 2 year bridge at maybe 1.5m per?

He got rid of players who didn't fit his culture and brought in guys who did through trades/FA. It was a good summer for them:

Risto has only played 1 game this year!

I don't understand his role to the team, so any price would be confusing to me. If thats the route Adams goes, Krebs agent should start at $2mm and use Jost as a comp.

His value is only going down IMO, if he can be traded then for sure go that route.

He could fight for a little more, but Jost was UFA, so it's a little different. Bryson got [email protected]. Could see something similar.

Awkward spot for the team. Imagine his trade value is low and he might just be a 4C here. You do need a 4C, so maybe you just go with that.

Michkov + Gauthier in the system. Gotta like that.

Speaking of-

"It's all Girgensons and Okposo's fault Krebs doesn't produce"

Okposo now on a 3 game goal streak. None assisted by Krebs

Would be on a 5 gamer if he could bury a Krebs feed 😉

The decade (+3) of filling the 4th line with Larry's needs to come to an end. His value to the team would be to get shown the door and let others realize the country club has turned into a hockey team.

Torts is ruining the tank.

Donnie still thinks he’s tanking

Every single free agent signing is an overpayment
- Shadman306

Daniel Sprong, Jonathan Quick, Tarasenko etc

this was a buyers market if you had cap space

sabres had cap space and instead overpaid for 2 bum d men and signed a few over the hill goalies for a tad less than quick went for

I'd love a move to change the makeup of this team a bit. No problem if he's part of that.

Has it ever not been like this?

Other than a couple years when they went to back2back Conference Championships
- DirtyDan

Sure, but I would hope by know I don't have to do it on a E. Johnson or Girgensons Okposo. There's a difference in how that 2mill is spent. The Sabres are on there own Island and nothing Adams has done has changed that, well other then him using the Warped Boards from Harbor Center to build a wall around Keybank Center.

Yes, or work out a 2yr deal if he wants to be here. Still a asset

Speed and Forecheck really work when used hand in hand. Can create so much.

Hes gotten better on the dot. I believe he leads the team ?

He just lacks size for the minimal talent he has. Love his effort. Its there almost every night. Would just like him to be bigger. Hes 6 foot but barely scrapes 190. Hes needs to fill out.
