Now back to the original point - Op are you comparing Kucherov to Leino?

No, I'm simply saying that hitting the panic button for free agency plan B set this team back 3 years the last time they did it.
So the only acceptable options are Plan A and nothing?

Once again, we didn't get what we wanted. The only acceptable option is to think things through and be reasonable with what they do next. Once again, Pegula has only been active in FA twice and he overspent both times. So, I'm not convinced they can be reasonable.
Isn't most FA overspending though? That's what FA is all about.
Would spending 7 million on Kucherov be hitting the panic button?
And the guy picking the players to spend on isn't the same now. It's a totally different management team
Owner is still the same. It must be tough to go through life with blinders on.
Still the same guy signing the checks.
Of course he's the same. I never said it wasn't
And it must be tough - but you've survived and are successful even with the blinders you have on.
Didn't say otherwise.
Are you saying that's it's irrelevant that the GM and much of the hockey department is different?
I'm saying the guy signing the checks has only been active in two FA periods between the Bills and Sabres and he's overspent in both.
In fairness, the team decided to gut itself of its core, and rebuild. I think what's his nuts was on board
I have no blinders on. Don't know what exactly you're referring to. To deny this owner has made some big missteps with the team is to have blinders on. Perhaps the best thing he did for himself wa to get GMTM. But apparently he has some warts too. You'd have to ask Spiked & coastal about those. But you'll recall when he bought the team he gave a resounding endorsement for Darcy Regier. How'd that turn out?
There is a huge difference between saying he made missteps and your blind hatred of him and saying he's done nothing right
