Get the 2 tonight, and start lesser goalie against Boston. Crap shoot at best in Boston even with 30-year old CA.

Don't sugarcoat it Hank. Granted I don't follow the Sabres that closely but Adams seems to be doing a tremendous job with the team. I'm going to assume he knows if his team requires some sandpaper and give him the benefit of the doubt. Sabres have turned the corner. The future is brighter than it's been in quite some time. Buffalo is a town that always seems to get the short shift. Go Buffalo!!

Stillman might be good - there are just zero indications that he is. And giving up a prospect for a guy who doesn't look any better than any of their four guys is weird. Best case scenario he's a servicable 3rd pairing guy.

Maybe it'll work out, but this is the kind of trade Botterill loved. I would have much rather have preferred they pooled some assets and traded for something really good.

Was Stillman of use in Florida?

Will differ to the Rat, but his charts are significantly better looking from when he played for the Panthers at least.

Too bad he's already played a game in a month that has the letter R in it.

30 prospects in the pool

and adams first move is not dishing out for a top 9 guy

or a top 4 d

or a goalie



for a bum that was probably going to be waived by the end of the month

I so hope the devils claim houser to phuck things up

- homiedclown


the last 2 moves have been strange for sure.. Maybe precursor for a bigger trade?

Short term, sabres run into injuries, who would you rather jump in and compete for a playoff spot.

Bloom or the GM's friends kid?

I get that Kevyn Adams and Cory Stillman are friends but WTF couldn't he just send him some Omaha Steaks like normal people do?

He will most likely be the 7-8 guy here.

I hope he changes my mind and becomes Adams best move ever.

Signs point to he will be scratched or in Rochester next year.
