Just some info I got I’ll share- I don’t know if any of it will come true but whatever

Skinner is gone

Jokiharju is gone

Krebs is most likely gone

Ostlund is the prospect they are trying to push on teams but if teams demand Savoie they will do it. Kulich is going no where and they like Rosen as a depth piece.

Expect them to make a push for a high end UFA - I’m guessing Kane or Debrusk

Matt Roy will also be high on their list.

They’re gonna add a banger. It’s a forgone conclusion.

Good stuff. I’ve been pushing Kane signing and joker not fitting narrative for an awhile.

So what I’ve heard holds some truth.

Kinda shocked about Krebs. I get he hasn’t panned out. But Adams love loves loves that kid. He thinks he’s briere. So him out. Kinda shows me Adams is ready to build and add

Adams has no phucking clue how to build a roster

his long term vision includes every prospect hitting and he is slow to react

skinner yes. joker yes (no commitment the other day, changed agents), krebs... he's a trade asset if buff and wash hook up for dowd.

matt roy makes a lot of sense.

banger in the bottom 6, that's foregone.

the savoie thing is questionable, I think he's their top prospect if levi doesn't count.

ostlund and rosen make the most sense for tradable prospects, I woulda thought maybe kulich would be in that mix.

I would put money in over 50% of those moves happen.

Greenway is most likely gone as well. Clifton staying.

Hopefully Ruff helps with those needed pieces, can get into Adams head

Long term ….. every single player he loves has a long term contract with the team.

Players he’s uncertain about. Get very short term.

Biggest issue is not giving up prospects with value to get a better player that can help the team right now

If Adams can get necas for Rosen + 11 You make that trade all day long. Even if it’s oslund

Oslund isn’t a bum prospect. He’s just the most unknown due to playing overseas.

Ruff needs to fix tage, cozens, and tuch.

And fix the power play.

That alone helps the Sabres our tremendously

I think they’re going to sell while he still has value.

Adams has a lot on his plate again, probably more than he can accomplish. It would have helped if he would have atleast started this process a couple years ago and tried to add atleast 1 quality player a year instead of the players he resigned or some of the crap he traded for.

Last year tuch sucked. Since game 1 of last season he looked slow and very sluggish. What ever he hurt in preseason might have hurt him all year. Idk. It’s like tage. Before his 282738 injuries. He sucked too.

His prior seasons mean nothing to me. It’s about future production. Not what you did for me 2-3 years ago

If tuch comes out slow. You listen to offers.

Good luck getting anyone to play here 2 years ago.

Tell a prime ages player. “Hey we are going with mostly 18, 19, and 20 year kids playing in the nhl”

Good luck selling that

Well that's his F@cking job as GM, all we heard is how they were fixing the Culture. Well that got blown to Sh!t by our former Captain. And there were players available in trade that wouldn't have a choice. Plus you are adding those players to hopefully get better and make it a more appealing place

Joker, Clifton, EJ and Byram were the only players who negatively impacted their own zone.

who clears the front of the net?

who goes in the corner and digs out the puck from 2 guys?

who finishes his checks in their own end?

who banks the puck off the wall out of our end when we are getting buried down low?

I mean fancy stats are great but the eye test shows what a playoff team does and this unit completing lacks many of the boxes that needs to be checked

and their d coach is coming back

He’s underrated if anything. From 2020-2024 he ranks 27th in terms of forwards in 5v5 points per 60.

He’s a legitimate 200 foot top line forward.
