I would take a chance on DeAngelo, to much upside.

He will be cheaper as a FA...usually not the case...

The Sabres don’t have the roster to deal with another player with a bad attitude

Wow this is comically bad.

They’ve gotta be planning on tanking
Lots of talent at the top of these next couple drafts

Vegas did it right. Its hard to grow hockey in a new market. Winners grow markets.

Imaging in the sabres were an expansion team that was created 10 years ago. Seattle shouldnt be following our model.

I agree. They needed players that can play right now. That’s why Borgen didn’t make sense.

To play devil’s advocate,
I’d say the talent they can get at the top of the next couple drafts is actually better than the talent they passed on with some of these picks

That said- i get what u mean, and think there’s merits to both sides of this discussion

Ask your source. Adams wants to clean house with all the players with bad attitudes. He has that

Apparently he loves loves cozens and his end of the year meeting and what he said

That quote from Adams was directed towards Eichel and Reinhart.

again, look at us, Reinhart, Eichel, and Dahlin in five years. Nothing but loosing still.

They could have, and should have done better.

How is Borgen making this team? The Sabres are going to claim him off waivers aren’t they

Not all teams that pick high like that continue to suck
Think PIT, LA, CHI, and so on

It doesn’t ALWAYS work out miserably like it has for us

No. As bad as tese picks are. Francis realizes Borgen isnt waiver eligible. Borgen wont be getting sent down.

Yes, but that still takes time, at least five years, horrible model for success in a new hockey market

$52.5M cap space taken, leaving nearly $29M left to spend! What FA's will they go after??? I am thinking Landeskog, Barrie, a pitch for Rhino or Seth.
