Sujet: OMG why couldnt we get Chychrun
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Gee, aren't the Sabres better off long term having two first rounders a second rounder, and 4.6m in cap rather then 2.5 years of Chychrun? Sabres may/may not makes the playoffs this year, but certainly they wouldn't be beating Bruins in the first round anyway.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Byrr</b></div><div>Because the Sabres are being patient and planning for the future while the Sens are paying big to be good now. Look at the expected path for these teams going forward. The Sabres are likely going to be the class of the Atlantic in 3 or 4 seasons if they are patient now. Ottawa is paying 1sts every year to be the 4th-6th best team in the division and are likely to get passed by Detroit, Buffalo and Montreal as the teams above them come down from their highs. Ottawa is going in on the next 2 or 3 seasons while Buffalo is playing a game where they will be very good for a much longer time.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>littlejerryseinfeld</b></div><div>Appreciate this post.

It's a struggle being a patient fan</div></div>

The Sabres are loaded with prospects, they just need to fix their D. Dmen take a long time to develop, look at Dahlin and Power, they're 1st overalls and Dahlin took 5 years, people were calling him a bust, Power is on his 2nd year and has a lot of work to do still. Sitting on your hands is just as bad as over spending. The Sabres could easily have afforded this and still came out of the draft this year with a good group of prospects to add to their pool that's already top 3 in the league. Chychrun also has term so it's not like they were under pressure to resign him. There's no excuse at that price, not a single player was sent to Arizona, just a bunch of lotto tickets.

Sujet: I am dead inside please get picks
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sjbackseatgm</b></div><div>Tired of the doom and gloom from Sharks' fans. We were spoiled with around a 15 year run of great teams. We are finally rebuilding (which should have started a couple years ago) and on track to get our first top 5 pick in around 20 years, in a great draft. A potential franchise player is on the way and we get to watch EK for 22 more games/win the Norris before flipping him before the draft.

But back to the point of your post - yes, more picks please haha. Might want to include a few others such as Barabanov as well.</div></div>

Would totally do Barabanov for the right price. I’m excited to have such a lucrative pick, just underwhelmed by the Grier thus far. The Timo trade wasn’t bad but wasn’t good either

Sujet: Back for more
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sjbackseatgm</b></div><div>He's forsure gone before the draft imo. He can focus the rest of the season on continuing to prove that he's back/can stay healthy and win the Norris. If so, he should have more choices (that want him) in the offseason. Unless Edmonton or someone gets really desperate the next few days.</div></div>

Yeah probably, or right after the lottery dictates draft positions.
It's funny when both Karlsson and Grier both say a trade is unlikely before the TDL, and they both say he is likely gone during the offseason. For all Grier's flaws at least he's on the same page with his players. 3 days to get a Karlsson deal done is impossible when it took Grier like 10 days to get the Meier trade done :-/ The retention is too complicated and contested

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Klara</b></div><div>Mercer not being involved has been confirmed.

Holtz not being involved was pure speculation by a crack pot reporter.

Sheng Peng has reported Sharangovich has not been told he is leaving, and Ryan Novozinsky reported that Zetterland hasn't been told either.

And it looks like we might know why its taking a while...
