People said the same thing to me about Russia/Ukraine and Israel/Palestine, China/India/Taiwan and Red/Blue.

Don’t be so confident it hasn’t already started.

trying to keep trump off of the ballot in states when he has not even been charged with insurrection , let alone found guilty of it, is not helping the situation

Curious what that trade would look like
- washedup20

3 or 4 Days ago I mentioned a 1 stop shop, I didn't say much because I wanted to talk with my Friend but why not!
He told me about some conversations had
Buffalo- Saros, Fabbro and a Grit guy. Didn't have a name but a extension was needed
Nashville- Mittelstadt a D Prospect and maybe another piece

The Sabres plan to recall a defenseman from Rochester "soon," said Granato, but it's no surprise that Connor Clifton is going to see a big increase in ice time with Buffalo missing Power and Samuelsson.

Just Conversations I was told at that time.
Would it help, who knows but it would hit 3 areas of Need. I actually can't see Adams pulling off a deal like that.

Why would he? No one is pressuring him to improve. That contract is signed, he's set for life.

So 1-5/8 seasons in he has played well during his rookie campaign, and substanrard for 5/8ths of his 2nd season.
His Coaches are not doing him any favors in furthering his development.
Same with other youngsters this season.

Our administration's idiotic strategies are the saving grace here. My biggest hope stems from the fact that eventually they will be gone and there isn't much way they downgrade those positions.

stop pushing this completely false narrative
- Jet Jaguar BD


Whatever you say.

https://www.nytimes.com/2...pa-bay-a-quiet-spark.html

"Hedman, 24, can be considered a late bloomer. The No. 2 pick in the 2009 draft, Hedman was a heralded rookie at 18 who confounded many as to why it took so long for his defensive prowess and offensive skills to mature. A 6 feet 6 inches and 230 pounds, he was cast in the mold of veteran All-Stars like Chris Pronger and Zdeno Chara."

Usually competent managers conclude after consistent quality play over a duration of acceptable time, said player earned that long term contract.

Adams has given out all his contracts based on potential...that has a success rate of maybe 3% throughout sports history.

Reduce government, enact a bill that requires all news to be unbiased. Set term limits for Congress and eliminate lobbying, abolish the fed and other 3 letter federal agencies.

All the noise goes away very quickly. Travel the country, it's not the everyday people going crazy (unless they are glued to the television).

Also, remove women from any form of positions of power.



The Sabres will still suck though.

The real problem is the Central Bank, Corporate America and Celebrity Elite won’t allow any of those things to come even close to happening and the Politicians are just the starving middle class eating up the table scraps so long as they can stick their fingers in some children.

If Trump wins, I'm curious to see what role he gives Vivek. I want him to eliminate as much as humanly possible, with those 3 you mentioned at the top of the list.

If it's a false narrative, it's a pretty widely accepted one. You might want to pick a different hill to die on, but to each their own.

I already said numerous times how this will play out

Russia and Ukraine first, Israel and Palestine Second, China and Taiwan third.

Biden will be declared unfit for Presidency with dubious timing before this fall election. They will make sure to have a woman President before Trump gets back in there.

False flag event will pull America into war, elections will be a poopshow, Harris will win, chaos ensues.

But she will be a swift and strong President. She will send the National Guard to kill their own families and they will.

War on Terror eventually shifts to South America. Border deal imminent upon Mexico declaring War on the Cartels with America to clean up Latin America and go get that Venezuelan oil, baby.

That is certainly true. I honestly just can't see how going from a 20pt defender to one of the best in the game isn't a big rise, but I'll let it go. Was more wondering if folks thought Power could turn it around or not. Swap Hedman for Chara, don't matter.

Hedman is an example of a top3 OA defender that showed flashes, but ultimately struggled to start.

Do we think Owen's size will delay his development similarly? I doubt Power reaches those heights, but do wonder if, like many before him, he'll be a late bloomer due to being a giant.

- QuinnFan


Power isn’t even trending towards being a Tyler Myers, let alone a Victor Hedman. We will continue to mentally masterbate about Power being young and needing to mature etc… I believe more than ever that Owen Power will be serviceable at best… certainly not an $8 million a year defenseman. Does he have some skills offensively- yes he does, but not that of a first overall pick. Defensively he is a yardsale. He was born without a sack.
