Can we define adequately, everyone says that but I’ve seen nothing to back that up.

Florida moved him for Peanuts very quickly.

Chicago has him for a year and then moved him.

Vancouver overpaid for him when he was awful in Chicago and within a year move him for what people here are calling a “not very good prospect”

For as much as everyone says well we moved bloom for some reason.

3 teams have now moved Stillman shortly after acquiring him.

I was told face punchers have no place in the league anymore.... maybe Florida Chicago and Vancouver found that out

So Stillman is -14 on a poopty Vancouver team. If he takes over for Bryson's -26 on a decent Sabres team and can add grit and maybe keep asshats from cheapshotting our stars, I'm good with the trade all day long.

Its not that we traded Bloom.... we didn't get anyone that does anything for the lineup... Stillman might be worse than what we have...

no mention in the top 15. Not even honorable mention.

then why does Adams continue to draft forwards knowing there is no place for them in the lineup and the defensive prospect pool is near empty.

Including two russians the previous year when many defensive prospects who some were first rounders were still on the board.

I don’t find Josh Bloom or Riley Stillman worth arguing over

If this is the only move I find that very much worth arguing over

It's not that they traded Josh Bloom, it's that they traded him for a guy they could have gotten for future considerations.

ad·e·quate·ly to a satisfactory or acceptable extent.

3 teams moved on, you guys all want Max Domi, 5 teams will have moved on from him.

The Sabres traded a nothing prospect for a nothing dman, who has grit. Something that everyone has been crying over the last two months. Worst case, he gets called up on certain dates for his grit. I can't imagine being this upset over a nothing trade.

I don't think Stillman is going to put any kind of fear into any opposing team.. they'll cross check Dahl still and fight a panzy.

The 5 minutes hes on the ice wont be when our stars are on

Really? How so? Please explain. If you are gonna say take the best player available Adams doesn't do that.

You think 2 Russian forwards in the second round is better than taking defensive prospects who fell out of the 1st round is better?
