Kane didn’t want to come here and DeBrincat wanted to go home.

How do you force players to come here?

Petry sucks. No thanks

Well hopefully they don't have a Clause, cause if they

You don’t want to trade for a player that doesn’t want to be here.

DeBrincat from nhl media only wanted to go to Detroit. So why “force” a trade for a player that will leave for Detroit a year later?

Remember viktor kozlov after the Hasek trade? That dude didn’t want to be here and sucked.

You act like it is DeBrincat or bust just because others have repeated him. There are other options of good NHL players with different skill sets that would help maximize Buffalo’s roster. They have done none of that in the thought of not blocking prospects that they won’t play because of terrible signings. Management has failed to surround a solid core with decent enough role players where if the big guns have an off night, maybe the Sabres can sneak out a win. They are the Maple Leafs lite without the postseason. Until that changes, rinse repeat.

Trade desk to Adams:

Who are you trading and who are you receiving?

Adams:

That’s a great question, I really like the way you expressed excitement in your question, it makes my job great….I’ve trade Tage Thompson.

Trade desk:

Can you tell me last/first name of who you’re getting in return?

Adams:

I’m happy you asked, we’ve had a lot of dialogue and after discussions with Terry, Donny and I are happy to welcome to Buffalo:
Considerations/Future!

Trade desk:

Confirmed Buffalo trades Tage Thompson for future considerations

Terry Pegula:

This will get us to the Stanley cup.

David Savard is good….but can you imagine what future considerations could bring?

The potential is too strong to ignore!

Throw Krebs a bone. With Quinn out, put him in the top 6. Let's see what he can do with good players, not scrubs. The Sabres are totally miscasting him. He's an undersized playmaker with some speed being asked to play a 4th line "heavy" role with scrubs. They have to figure out what they have with him and see if he is part of the future or not. They are completely wasting him. Plus, if we plays well, they can use him as part of a bigger trade in the summer to a team that can use his skillset in the top 9.

Also, under no scenario should Slokposo be on line 1. Put him on line 4 with Girgs and Robinson and give them 12 minutes a night.

Benson has the closest skill set to Quinn in terms of full 200 foot play without having to breakup Greenway-Mitts-Tuch.

Hate Okposo on line 1, but Skinner and Tage get paid big bucks to drive play and those other two lines are solid and I can see why they don’t want to split them up.

keep them as far away as possible, probably get benched for scoring a goal by the current dippoop coach or GM.
