Im sure the canucks fans will be all over me but the fact is you're absolutely correct the Sabres need to follow the Vancouver model.

Unfortunately, the Vancover model is simply stumbling upwards into success and benefiting from a huge shooting/save % bender (although you can argue a demko resurgence was predictable to an extent). They are succeeding despite themselves ( ownership, mgmt, scouting etc.)

If and when the Sabres are good, it's 100% going to be for reasons that have absolutely nothing to do with whatever moves ownership or management make. The good news is this happens way more often than most think.

The bad news is, there's no telling when the misery will end.

Canucks fans know they are performing beyond expectations. Hell, upper bowl tickets to Columbus is $200 lol

This model/team lacks a Demko comp. And some of these deals are bananas. Noesen and Sealer is what a poor team will pay Dakota Joshua

The Canucks model is a high PDO with a top 5 goalie. They are the 21-22 rangers.

Cozens for Andersson is quite a trade. I wonder who says no.

This guy doesn't know the Canucks.

They're succeeding because of organizational alignment, buy in to the system, and good pro scouting.
