Team: 2021-22 Buffalo Sabres
Initial Creation Date: Jul. 23, 2021
Published: Jul. 23, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Sabres Draft:

1st - Eklund - Buffalo needs Forwards more than Defence and Eklund is the Best Forward if not the Best Player in the Draft

3rd - Power/Bernier ~ Whoever is left

22nd - Chibrikov

26th - Peart


I have Eichel going to MIN because that seems most likely. Obviously getting 3rd OA from ANH would be easier with Eichel instead of Reinhart.

Anaheim declines that pretty quickly. Buffalo should be getting Rossi and Boldy at a minimum plus the two first round picks from Minny.

Anaheim says "We aren't Philly" and hangs up.

Buffalo is laying an egg on eichel. The fact no teams are getting access to his medical records it’s just dropping his value further and further.

He won’t command boldy and rossi and 2 1sts. It’s honestly a pipe dream. I get he’s your shiny toy and you want the word for him, but no team will make that trade.

Personally I want the wild to avoid eichel unless there’s huge retention because they can’t build a contender with his 10m cap hit. Realistic return for him would be fiala, one of rossi/boldy 1st and then cap balancing or was 5m retained. Anything worse than that the wild should walk.

You know you can add draft picks without having to type in additional details?

You cannot add 2021 picks any longer.

I did not know that. Thank you. I wonder why CapFriendly would do that when the draft hasn’t happened yet.

I agree that teams not having access to his medical records is hurting his value but his is skating and is said to be feeling "great" per his agent.

If Adams doesnt get Boldy and Rossi then he should walk away because picks 22 & 26 are even more crapshoots in this draft. If Buffalo is going to retain any money then the price goes up exponentially. Fiala, Boldy, and the two first should be the minimum imho but i really think they could get more.

I hear what you are saying about Minny avoiding Eichel...those Parise and Suter buyouts really hurt.

Yep it’s a perfect storm that, if the wild get eichel - it’ll basically be a 4 year tornado that will cripple the Minnesota franchise for like 7 years and crush everyone’s playing prime.
