With the cold hand of Matt Ellis deadening the power play (and a number of other factors) that could still be a top 5 pick with this team.

We aren't making another big move for a defensemen. How are we supposed to play and pay them all?

I don’t think CGY is ready to do that
(although they really should go “full rebuild”)

But what’s really great about your ACGM,
is that even though you’re a fan of ANOTHER TEAM,
u still seem to have more common sense about what the Sabres ACTUALLY NEED than MOST of my fellow fans on
this site


Again, i don’t think it happens
And I’d switch up the forward lines & the top2 Def pairs….
But NICE JOB sir!

He LITERALLY explains it ALL right in this ACGM
Wow…. I just don’t have words, but I’ll try

How do we pay them all ?
He CLEARLY answered that, as we are UNDER THE CAP in this ACGM- that btw, is MUCH BETTER than what i see you put out

And how do we play them all ?
Well…. just look at the lines ffs

It’s not that complicated dude
Again…. WOW

2024 1st, and Ostlund will get you Ras. Start from there.

You're right in that it work for 1 yr till Byram gets paid and then the following year Anderson and Tuch get paid. Also ECL contracts will be expiring for Peterka and Quinn.
Skinner would have to be bought out after next season and hopefully the cap goes up again to make this work past one season.
But as far as this working short term I agree.

Do you keep Anderson past the 2 yrs, (actually 1 yr bc they'd have to make a decision if they want to go into his last year before he becomes an UFA). Andersson knows he has been short changed and is going to want his career contract. Would it be wise to invest 35-40 mil in 4 D-men.

After getting Byram, I think Adams goes for a lesser RHD if he even does.

There’s ways to keep Andersson if we want
But yeah, it won’t be easy & tough decisions will have to be made
That’s not a bad thing though
If that’s going on, we’ve likely become a pretty good team
