Quoting: Pdawgdavis02
Pysyk is a win-now player on a team that is not in win-now mode. But you're right, he's an analytical darling.
I can understand why Pysyk would want a chance to win
I’m sure the Sabres would understand that as well
But it doesn’t mean they aren’t gonna try to keep him
I’m not gonna hazard a guess on what means more to Pysyk….
a shot at winning the Cup this season
VS
the security of a multi-year deal with a team (and city) he’s familiar with
I could see him lean either way
In a perfect world, we could trade him to Tampa so he could hopefully win, & then we could bring him back in the offseason
We just risk other teams getting involved then
And I’d assume we wouldn’t want that
