Potentially

Watch the Sabres offer Stamkos something like 2× 11 or 12mill

Oh man I'm sure. Those 4th line minutes are really gonna shine.

Think it's what they did after that was a Head scratcher

At this point why not? You've got 30 million in cap and not spending the money hasn't done anything for you, just go for it. (frank) the cap. Then go offer sheet Lundell. Adams has one last chance this season, go all in baby.

Sure, but the trade down was fine. Helenius was a (potential, so I don't offend anyone, lol) steal there.

They're going to have to.

I thought he would have had that thought process going into the draft, yet, here we are. Sickening.

Something has to be coming, and Adams must be pretty sure. Really No reason to Buy out Skinner, 31mill in Cap space
- Buff36

There is a reason, it's just one that none of us want to hear.

Unless it's like Gerbe said: Lindy's condition to come here was that they get rid of Skinner. Now Kevyn is up poops creek looking for a top-6 paddle
- Hank Balling

Here's the reason: Skinner said he's sick of this poop and asked out.

Adams only wants PWWTBH, of course.

Idk, maybe he's right. We gave up a 2nd for turbo girgensons. Why wouldn't GMs want to deal with Adams

I would love to know what his real thoughts are about his roster as of 6:28 PM tonight. If I looked at this depth chart and knew my ass was on the line this year, and I'm almost certainly never getting any kind of GM job again if I fail, I would be in panic mode.

Or does he think Lindy will fix it, like Buff said
- Hank Balling

Or he's under no real pressure, and he's playing the middle again, which means signing one or two season bandaids until the next wave of prospects is ready.

- Stripes77

Nah, I have heard this narrative many many times in sports and it's basically never true.

There are only 31 other GMs to talk to. These guys aren't silly like that. Not to mention the Sabres are basically a joke, what GM doesn't want to rip them off.

Who knows. If July 2nd comes and goes with what i expect to be a 4th line forward and little else, I'm done with this godforesaken franchise until they fire Adams. I'm done with this nonsense

Your fly-byes are cute - give us some more than vague revelations - put yourself on the line.

I'm with you, but what is the number one priority for Terry, until he sells at least a portion of the Sabres?

Having a bottom 3 in the league payroll.

In terms of that, it will be mission accomplished.

Don't slam that door on me completely yet! Dammit I am hanging on by threads here.

Kevyn Adams has told us multiple times including tonight that they have an offer on the table for Zemgus and they're awaiting his decision. That's where we are as a franchise - waiting on Zemgus Girgensons

This is unfortunately the way.

Probably add 1 maybe 2 decent (Clifton type forward ) free agents , and welcome to the roster Matthew Savoie

It’s hard to pass up 2.75 avr , but the door is always open.

Shop around and come back (Adams learned it from Beane )
