Description

Assuming the Sabres have a low 70s internal cap as has apparently been rumored, what might that look like? Not trading for big name RFAs for sure.

Let's assume $72-73M.

Trades

BUF

Compher, J.T.
Kaut, Martin
2021 1st round pick (COL)

Additional Details:

In this scenario, I'd think move 1 would be to trade away the expensive RFA. You get two RWs for the price of one with some cost certainty and another future.

COL

Reinhart, Sam [RFA Rights]

BUF

Dvorak, Christian

Additional Details:

Cost controlled while possibly getting better now to keep Eichel from becoming toxic.

ARI

2020 1st which isn't shown anymore for some reaso

BUF

2021 2nd round pick (CGY)

I think they'd probably just let Montour go instead of trading Risto.

Could still fit that in under a $72M cap here. I figure get what you can for Risto, sign Montour for one year and flip him at the deadline to maximize assets.

Clever work and I really like Dvorak but this wouldn't be a playoff roster. It's going to be tough to mold the Sabres into it if they are low 70s.

I mean that roster sucks so it's probably quite realistic
