I think Flyers are priming Cates to be their next Laughton.

1- Sabres aren’t looking to move Skinner, mgmt likes him
2- he’s unlikely to waive to go anywhere- maybe Toronto, but they aren’t taking him- he wants to be near his Family</div></div>

I agree 100%. I've said right along Skinner won't waive. Guy has never played in the playoffs. Who leaves a team on the cusp of getting in to go to another rebuilding team? I'll be watching when Skinner finally plays his 1st playoff game. Dude has earned it.

We can certainly talk Cates, but we are still going to want to discuss your center prospects in return. Cates is a perfect 3C; Flyers could use a 2C (Savoie, Kulich). I think Ostlund is already a 3C future for Sabres.

Laughton for a 3rd in fine, Laughton for a substantial prospect or a 1st is not what the Sabres need to do

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NeedTheCleanser</b></div><div>I mean I’m fine w giving up a third for Laughton, I think he’s better than the results he put up this year. I think BUF fans are mad abt Laughton being connected to the 11th pick/ being the big addition this offseason.

Side note, TFP keeps bringing up Mattias Samuelsson as a fit for Philly. Sabres have a ton of LHD and could use some middle 6 scoring punch, any idea about a swap including MS and Farabee?</div></div>

There was no connection between the 11oa and Laughton. Two separate ideas, one of which was already refuted and the Sabres were actually interested in Cates, not Laughton

#11 and #37 for #20 to take Skinner? I like that value. Skinner is overpaid, but he's still putting up 20+ goals. I actually like him better than Hall as Bedsy's LW. And I get the whole 3rd year thing w/ his contract, but Hawks can just buy that last year out if they need cap space or his production craters.

Thread: new team

I know another CHI fan posted that idea first, but I disagree with it. BUF's 1st should be worth every bit of dumping Skinners $9m x 3 year contract. If it isn't, then both sides should walk away. A few spots in the draft isn't worth taking all of that on, IMHO. Maybe one of our late 2nd round picks, at best.

Also, Joki isn't worth more than Iaffallo, and if he were, it isn't THAT much more. That is probably an overpayment for Wild Bill. The price on Kovacevic is probably fine, might be a bit light, depending on how you view/value him.

Thread: From the desk of me

No to kaliyev. We don't need that skill set at all. He has some size that he doesn't use, cant skate, and is useless if he's not scoring. Olofsson got run out of town, Skinner is probably next, why would we immediately sign up for the same thing? And trade a second for the privilege?

Thread: The Future-ish

I don't see the Sabres having interest in this. Adams isn't gonna move prime assets for rentals. Personally I'm hoping for something different if they are shopping for vets.

Thread: The Future-ish

Not sure Buffalo is in need of a winger in his late 30s, and his No trade clause probably also prevents this deal from happening.

I don't hate the idea of moving Byram, but rossi couldn't be farther from what they do need.

If you think Byram is redundant, you should look at the Buffalo F prospects…

Thread: In two years

Swap rossi for kap and you've pulled the interest of KA.

The Sabres wouldn't have traded mitts for Byram if they didn't think it would be a good idea to trade a center away.

Buffalo isn’t doing that. Retain half and they’ll consider him, but not for a second. JGP isn’t worth his cap hit

Thread: Hronek

Jokiharju for fabbro doesn't help, it's really more of lateral move at best, doesn't really add what we need. Hronek is a rental, there's no way buffalo is paying 11oa and ostlund for a rental. Plus, extending hronek to me means the Sabres have to move Samuelsson and maybe Byram too, just for the salaries to make sense (dahlin 11.5, power 8.75, Samuelsson 4.75, Byram?, hronek ?, Clifton 3). The Sabres would be paying an absolute ton on defense. For me, it's likely that any major upgrade on d means somebody else goes- and in this case, you are paying 11oa and ostlund to do it.
