They seem to be decent at drafting... Able to project decently about what a 17/18 yo translates to at the next level.

They friggin blow at analyzing existing players IMO. By now, the 1st analytical filter should be, filter out all players with some form of NMC/NTC term. It would save them alot of time.

Helenius was a steal. Probably doesn't help us next year, though.

Here’s the last 4 players the Buffalo Sabres have traded for

To get this haul it cost them Mittelstadt, 2 2nd rounders and a 7th

Anyways, John Marino to Utah for a few picks

Sorry you got you’re hopes up for this typical lackluster draft.

Been saying for weeks , nothing is going to change.

Adams is conservative and his job is not on the line.

based on what?

rosen has not done much in the ahl

aside from kulich being ok over there

none of their second or third round prospects are doing much other than bringing us stillman

the 2 russians in the second round look like busts

the goalie in the 2nd round looks like a dud

maybe some of these more recent ones will turn out or be the next 2021 draft blunders

He has two choices this summer to change that going forward.

Trade for players that don't have clauses, even if they are "plan Bs and Cs".

Overpay for decent free agents.

Until they start winning, players not waving is going to be an issue.

Just because players don't want to sign a extension right of the Bat, doesn't mean they don't want to be a Sabre. He has to understand it's his job by the end of the Year to make the Team good enough for that player to want to Stay. He is to scared to lose a trade.

all adams has done is rearrange the chairs on the deck

I can go to home depot and find someone in the parking lot to do that for pennies on the dollar

Maybe they are a loop hole since they just became a team? Maybe players submitted no trade lists and then Utah became a franchise. Lol

I know it’s a joke, but take it easy. How about just wish he did not have the job?

With all the top 6 players moved this off season so far, which one did you want the Sabres to get?

I’m very confused. You and buff36 want these kinds of forwards. And now you seem upset by trading for them?
