Why wouldnt sam be controlling his own line?

It's not a myth. Analytics from this past season, or from playing with ror?

- Boss34



All seasons.
Unfortunately the sample size from this past season was small.

Breaking:
Winger plays better with one of best centers in game.
Still produces on his own.
Doesn't hit or punch people in face.
Will Buffalo fans like him?

It's so tired. I'm not here to tell you he's a premier elite winger like Kucherov. But saying he can only play with Eichel is just woefully incorrect.

Here is teh buffalo timeline for the past 5 years.

GET WINGERS TO PLAY WITH EICHEL
Enter Sam Reinhart
NO NOT THAT ONE, HE CAN ONLY PLAY WITH EICHEL.
TRADE HIM FOR A DIFFERENT ONE OR A DIFFERENT PLAYER.


How about this idea.

Trade for a good 2C that way, guys like Skinner, VO, Reinhart are not pigeonholed into playing with the only guy producing.

My suggestion is to take a blood sample from Eichel and hitch a ride on a spacex rocket to Kamino to make an Eichel clone army. They'll all be on their ELCs at the same time.

Might need to add a mancari, one of those sweet 2 tone Ott jerseys and 2 dozen wings (bar bill). If they still want more, drop the Paula’s donuts and Barkov is ours!

Edit- fixed, got rid of Paul’s nasty cream filled gooey donuts.

My buddy is pissed that FL is one of the only states that he cant move to.

Just curious why FL doesn't recognize the UBE?

- ImThatGuy


Because they want to make sure you know how to fraud properly before you go to Florida, the fraud capital of America. Hell, they had a governor who was CEO of a company fined $1.7B for healthcare fraud, the largest in US history at the time. Florida also has the most fraud complaints per capita.

Draft update:

Teams that fail to advance past the play in round are eligible for the #1oa pick
Teams that win the play in round are not eligible
Teams cant win the 1st pick and the cup
Probably wont be a face puncher
Will Buffalo fans understand how simple the draft lottery concept really was this year?
It's been all over the 11 o'clock news.

Weren't you just yesterday going crazy that player for player trades merely create other holes that will need to be filled?
Or have you come around that having 4 2RhD is just absolute piss poor asset management, therefore 2 or 3 should be traded?

Throw in Mojo to the trade pool, since Kahun or Olofsson can fill the 3LW spot.

Ask yourself this.

Barkov had damn near 100 points 2 years ago and was on an almost ppg basis this year.

Eichel has never sniffed 100 points, but in my eyes he'll get there.

Would YOU as GM of the Sabres, accept a similar deal from Florida for Eichel?

8oa, a "Mitts" type player and "whatever else" for your number 1 C?

No offense, but that proposal is ridiculous.
