Adding Experience and Grit

Team: 2024-25 Buffalo Sabres

Initial Creation Date: Mar. 30, 2024

Published: Mar. 30, 2024

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

The Sabres aren't going to fire Granato so hopefully they at least get better asst coaches in here next year.
This team needs some experience and grit...bring in Manson (if Colo chooses to trade him for cap reasons) for the backend which will bring in veteran leadership and another cup winner with Byram. If the Sabres were willing to try Eric Johnson in that role Manson would better be served to do so.
Olivier brings the grit to the forwards and hopefully the players may decide it is safe to go to the front of the net as they will be protected...lol
Krebs since the TDL has a goal and assist since being elevated to the 3rd line...time for a change of scenery and the Sabres get an experienced bottom 6 center. Likeable player but could be another Jost.
Manson makes Jokiharju expendable and from what I see ANA lacks RHD as 5 of their 6 starters are left hand shots. Their best RHD prospect is Luneau, doubt he will be ready next year.
I'm putting Savoie as 3C and if it doesn't work out then he goes to wing, Sturm moves up to 3C and Greenway drops and Girgs goes to 4C.
