Team: 2020-21 Buffalo Sabres

Initial Creation Date: Jul. 11, 2020

Published: Jul. 11, 2020

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Mark Pysyk- perfect acquistion in UFA, allows you to test out Will Borgen as a bottom pair defender and to see if he can even handle a bigger role as a #4 or #5 defenseman if the team moves Ristolainen at the deadline. Pysyk can also operate as a right wing who can kill penalties and be a shutdown forward on the fourth line.

Namestnikov- very versaitle, physical, center or wing, kills penalties, and tenacious....has had success playing on top lines

Khubodin- one of the best backups in the league for years and an upgrade over Hutton.

Marcus Johansson will likely be traded to move salary and acquire more picks
