Who would?
Their medical advisors say it isn't th he next step yet.
Insurance will decline it.

Jack wants it, Jack pays for it and assumes all risk.

It's really pretty easy until Jack's medical advisors recommend it as the next step.
Then, file a grievance.

No win for Adam's on this deal.

Rangers will offer up the likes of

Strome- player now that can help - no chance they give up guys like Lafreniere or Kakko. Maybe Miller if push comes to shove

Prospects like Jones or Robertson - no chance they offer up guys like Lundkvist or Schnieder

Maybe someone like Georgiev as well

And then throw in a first or multiple 2nd's/3rds

- Revised12



ewwwww No thanks on Kakko and strome.

Also no to Georgiev.

No idea...but I think Kim did have one that backfired...it's why they're hesitant now on Eichel.

The only way for the Sabres to be good is to be bad for another 500000 years and there is no exception.

Logic behind it:
Because the Vanek teams werent good.


Brilliant, just (frank)ing brilliant.

Darcy did a tear down

He didn't rebuild, Murray was supposed to do the rebuild

- Stripes77


That would be "build" and not a "rebuild". Semantics.

You’re the one that said they consistently made the playoffs. I love your deflecting when you get called out when you post something that’s just wrong.

They really do need to sell the Sabres ........ This ground zero has gone below ground zero. Year after year.

The sabres need to spend a TON of money veteran GM / President that the Hockey community is well respected and the pegulas make it VERY public they are hands off.

Trading away your number one franchise center, and most likely your number two center/top line RW is a rebuild.

If you get lucky and bring in the right pieces it doesn’t have to be a long term rebuild but nothing the Sabres front office has done shows me they’re capable of getting it done unless Lady Luck helps out.
