You’re dreaming if you think Buffalo even considers that deal. They don’t need any wingers from the outside. If they have any interest in trading a defenseman to upgrade at forward they would target a player better than Beauvillier, and probably move 2 players to make that happen.

We do NOT want jack studnicka back

Having said that, none of Jok, Bryson or Lub are getting upgrades at the forward group. Value wise it's not off but fit is no bueno. Thanks for stopping by.

We aren’t LOOKING for upgrades on the forward group though
We have A TON of forward talent coming still

So trading away a young RD that we (Sabres mgmt) likes,
for a rental forward, that just doesn’t make much sense for us

Jokiharju is significantly better than Prime_Jimbo.
He was only 23 when the season finished, most defensemen picked late in the first round are still in the AHL honing their skills at that age.
As @homiedaclown said management likes jokiharju playing him over 21 min/gm the last two years, 6 more minutes per game than Bryson, Stillman or Lyubuskin.
So @Prime_Jimbo you are partially correct Bryson, Stillman nor Lyubushkin will not return an upgrade at the forward group and Buffalo would not trade Henri to do it either.

Sorry, you're stuck with Studnicka

Can't even get a 7th. Sheesh. Come on, this is Studs. This your boy
