This post speaks to the frustration you have with the organization and I get it but why the hate at Jack?

Where is your hate towards Hasek?

How about Mogilny?

The French Connection?

I've never liked Hasek

Mogilny is and was my favorite player

F Eichel, he's no better then any of them.

Hey Kaiser, you going to Oak Hill over the weekend? I'll be there Sunday.

Unlikely. I’d rather be an old guy playing than watch old guys playing.

And I have a big project in the office.

skinner, reinhart, dahlin, risto?

And ??? Where’s the rest

Risto is a - 1

And they just had one line

As far as UFAs go

Top tier:
guys like Panarin & Stone

2nd tier:
Pavelski, maybe Duchene, etc

3rd tier:
Hayes, Nelson, etc

Skinner falls on the line between Tier 1 & 2 for me

But also...
yes, Hayes is a decent 3C on a good team
We need to aim higher imo

None of them will be Sabres...
No one wants to play in Buffalo... including Skinner

Great interview w Ralph

I’d say Panarin, Skinner, Karlsson, BOB, and Duchene are all in their own tier. They all are getting big $$ with 7 year term most likely

Stone re-signed

I’d say due to his age Hayes is in the next tier, but I don’t have a ton of interest in him. I think he’s ok, but they shouldn’t be giving him 6+ mil

I guess how u group ppl would be up for debate

For Duchene,
even though he’s gonna get big $$$, i don’t think he’s the same caliber player as Panarin
So i put them in different groups
Like i said with Skinner,
I think he’s right on the borderline bc he’s a 60ish point player, but top goal scorer

None of them will be Sabres...

It’s debatable but I believe you’re correct unless we overpay

I’m just hoping Buffalo doesn’t get irritated and just sign a lower tier player like for example Brett Connolly or Donskoi for 5m and say we have fixed the problem and trying to Force players like them into the top two lines

thanks for sharing

who said to do this?

and the time to turn the corner is now, year 5 for jack and sam
year 2 for dahlin and casey

this team, based on rebuild time, should be able to easily contend for a playoff spot this fall

Guys like Hayes & Duchene will be bad contracts
Almost everyone on here is saying to do so

I want nothing to do with Hayes

3.5 or 4 sure but he’s going to want 6-7 and that’s a no

thanks for sharing

Absolutely!

Ralph sounds very intelligent, well-spoken, approachable and passionate, which he'll need every bit of.

He makes Phail sound like Billy Bob Thornton in Slingblade.

Saying he had a "slinky for a spine" wasn't too far off.

I still have the TWO VHS tapes of the 4 OT game Vs NJ, where he made 70 saves. A buddy is going to put it onto DVD for me.

Do they still make DVDs ? Might have to update again Lol

I’ve only watched him on YouTube but it’s pretty cool

Part of what made him so great is that he never gave up on a play. You'd think he was down and out, and the shooter had an open net, and then this arm or leg came shooting out of nowhere.

Worst technical goalie ever
But he was freaking amazing

The “slinky for a spine” MasterCard commercial was pretty epic
