Quoting: TheGreatBigMac
Young decent prospect, looks like there are not any with the Sabers currently all on the big club. Sami would add competition and doesn't have to play with the big club next year.
Sami kicked butt in OHL, played well as a top4 on the top khl team last year. Well rounded, physical, good defender, mobile, can move the puck. I think he can be NHL top 4 but we already have two prospects ahead of him Broberg (1st round pick the GM likes) and Niemo who is a physical giant our team has been missing for years. Sami may be better than both but we need to dump some salary to compete now.
We’d rather just have the draft pick i think
Dahlin is locked in as our LD1
Owen Power- who u seem to have forgotten about- is gonna be locked in at LD2 for years
So the guys u have ahead of him don’t really compare to the ones we do…. now do they??
Power was 1st Overall LAST YEAR
Kinda ridiculous that you’ve apparently forgotten about him
Also…. We've already got young guys in Samuelsson & Bryson fighting for the LD spot, with former 1st rounder Johnson on the way & looking good as well
LD is probably the position of most strength in our entire organization
So maybe- MAYBE- if we really like Samorukov….
But like i said, most likely we’d just rather have a draft pick
You’ve gotta look at things from BOTH teams’ point of view dude, & not just yours
