ya know, jeannot doesn't have a bad impact on the game, but you're getting girgensons offense. i am once again asking for the sabres to raise the bar here.

Girgensons has never sniffed 20 goals or 300 hits

I'd take Jeannot for a 4th round pick. Pair him with Boone Jenner and Will Carrier.

It'd probably be Krebs not Jenner. Stick Jenner with Benson and Quinn/mid 6 new playe

He didn't even score more than 19 in junior until his 4th year. And the year he had 24 in Nashville he shot at near 20% clip.

OK, and does he bring other things to the Team. Does he bring Grit, does he bring forechecking, does he bring toughness to help protect the kids.
Seems to Me he brings a lot of what People want, a gritty 4th liner that could add.

4th line should be an energy line but Jeannot stinks.

I didn't deny his other abilities. I responded to his career high in goals and why I don't think its realistic to think he could reach it again.

Does he play the pk? well?

Depends on what you define as suck, he would bring much needed intangibles to this soft roster....for example, see Adams attempt to toughen up the roster that resulted in:

Kid scored 24 goals a couple years ago, he is only 26. I have No problem giving him a chance to redo that while protecting the Kids.

I wouldn't be against it necessarily, however it would be my plan D, E or F.
Plan A is to sign Dakota Joshua better all round player and less costly.
I know you love him too.

In the sense you dont have to trade for him or you expect him to cost less on his contract ?

I don'tthink he did with Tampa, but I don't need him to with the pairings they put out last year on the Sabres PK

Just be nice to have good pk'ers in your bottom 6. Take some responsibility from your top 6.

I agree, he's not my first choice by all means. But I do think he could add things this team desperately needs.

Your first choice will have his choice of where to go in the league, Buffalo will have to overpay due to competition. Do you believe Adams is willing to overpay for depth players?

Do you think GM's and agents, who have options, have Buffalo as high on the list of desired destinations?

Bargain shopping continues in Buffalo - unless there is a dramatic shift in Adams plan that he is admitting to sticking to (minus meatball).

I know he will, so will Trenin probably. Sucks Adams hasn't tried to Win for the last 2 Years. Maybe more players would say YES

Since Adams has become the GM, he has had to overpay mediocre players just to come to Buffalo, what has happened to assume this has changed?

None have worked out, now all of a sudden Adams is going big game hunting and will succeed?

The Lindy madness going on here assuming narratives have changed is going to be a fun ride, lets see how many months this sticks around.
