Next year

Unless the front office or coaching staff is finally held accountable, I cannot see anything changing the outlook of this team next season.

At least if they move to Quebec city they can stay in the same conference.

They like Samuelsson too much. Ryan Johnson might make sense to trade. I think they trade Jokiharju too.

Trade makes sense for the Sabres,
if for no other reason than to swap a lefty for a righty

Curious as to how Devils fans will see this

I think this would open a very interesting conversation at least. Wouldn’t hate it

If Samuelsson was RH then i don’t think the Sabres do it
We just signed him long term last year
But adding Byram gives us an abundance of Lefties
And rumors are that Jokiharju (1 of the 2 RH guys we have) may be pricing himself out of Buffalo with his contract demands

Puts us in a spot where we have to (at least) consider a move like this
