Don't know. Selling now at an all-time low sucks
Jack lit the fuse (although I don't blame him after all the losing). Adams is pretty far up poop's creek - jcragcrumple
It’s why I wanted to sell him last season. Get ahead of the curve. The writing was on the wall |

Who's excited about Tage Thompson? He's seemingly been coveted by everyone ever since his early days In St.Louis and he still hasn't proved that he can play at the NHL level. - Shady1962
Him, Aspland and mitts look like a fine 3rd line. |

I loved Turcotte in the draft
But it’s still a bit of a gamble. Big question marks on all those players. - Sabretooth9
We are in last right now. DEAD last. 6 years into the Eichel core. It’s not a gamble at this point, it’s the right thing to do. Sell old core bring in a new one. |

It's not bad, gives you a good C, a good RW, a perfect fit at 2LD, and a good goalie and they help you know and the future. |

Not bad, maybe see if you could change Clague for Bjornfot or Roy - Buff36 yes that is bad. Nothing but unproven question marks.

Clague has looked pretty good since his callup, Peterson is a good young goalie that has looked pretty good this year and Turcotte is unproven but is the young C with high end potential that everyone is crying for, plus atleast another good 1st. Don't think it's that bad of a deal especially if you get Clague changed out for Bjornfot. |

...But two players stand out as targets for the Sabres – Antti Raanta in Arizona, and Laurent Brossoit in Winnipeg. And for two very different reasons.
The case for Raanta is simple: He’s been reliable for some time, and at 32, it’s reasonable to assume he has a few years left. The Coyotes are committed to tandem goaltender Darcy Kuemper for another season, and the younger Adin Hill has looked good in spot starts.
Few teams have been as reliant on their goaltenders as the Coyotes have, and Raanta – whose Goals Saved Above Expected trumps the likes of Rask, Semyon Varlamov, and Thatcher Demko over this timespan – has been a part of that.
If Raanta’s production has been hampered by health, then Brossoit’s has been impacted by opportunity. Brossoit had the look of a journeyman-type goaltender early in his career with Edmonton, but he’s shown a fair bit of promise in spot starts with the Winnipeg Jets over the last few seasons. The problem for Brossoit? He’s buried behind Connor Hellebuyck, one of the few (justifiably) workhorse goaltenders left in the league. This year in particular he’s been great, though the ice time just isn’t there.
If a goaltender makes his way to free agency, he’s not a safe bet. And the Sabres, considering how little leverage they are going to have with players on the market, aren’t going to fall into a dream signing scenario.
That’s what makes Raanta (durability) and Brossoit (opportunity) intriguing candidates. In terms of performance, there has been much more upside than downside. And considering how hesitant the Sabres will be about “running it back” in net – well, I think there’s a chance both of the agents of these respective players get a call from the Sabres' front office.

A 24-year-old can't know it all in these spots. Eichel claimed Monday he did a lot of research. Given the latest information, it comes off like he just learned how to use Google and WebMD.

Eichel is a top 10 NHL player, and is 24, if that is the return, you dont trade him. He has 5 more years. He can rot sitting out for the next 5.

NFL should go with a 19 week regular season so teams get two bye weeks. That’s got to change soon. Have byes between weeks 4 and 15 average 6 teams on bye Thursday night teams play coming off bye. Everybody win$. Start byes week 3 if you have to and TNF starts week 4 in addition to season opener. |

I'm assuming this is contingent on not moving Eichel and Reinhart, otherwise WTF is the point of acquiring a 32 year old goalie? He'll be 40 by the team is ready to compete. |

I think Harrington took Adams' comments like I did.
I like Adams. I think he's very intelligent (so much more so than Botterill), well spoken and about as transparent as a GM can be. He may lack experience, but hopefully Karmanos will help offset some of that. I know some on here don't trust ANYONE the Sabres employ, and they criticize, dissect and ridicule ANYTHING Adams says, but I believe him about Eichel.
And he said a mouthful when he said, "we want players that want to be here", and I couldn't agree more. |

No, because the hope will be that Luukkonen will have been ready to go. This buys UPL a full year, at least, in Rochester. |
