Think the value is ok for Joker but I don't think the Sabres want picks. Andrew Copp would probably interest Buffalo. Even if it's not a 1 for 1 swap.

Well, good luck, because the reason he's not in Buffalo right now isn't for lack of offense. Despite his cold streak.

I don't see a developed bottom 6 center there. If the Sabres want to win (and it was rumored Kevyn looked at Cates, and mentioned out loud his desire for a bottom 6 C) then this is the type of move they need, and want to do. They also talked to CBJ for Jenner.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Roperttos</b></div><div>Cates is a nice bottom six defensive forward which playoffs teams want to have. Long-term Jokiharju won't be more than 3rd pair guy for them.
Long-term RD depth for them is
Sanheim
Drysdale
Bonk
Jokiharju
Ristolainen
It's simply not a good move long-term for them.</div></div>
Like Jerry said above, if they move on Risto, it makes a lot of sense.. to me at least. He's been effective all over the defense for Buffalo this past season. Played with Dahlin, Power, Johnson, Clifton...
The reason I believe the Sabres move on here is because they have their 4 long term, top 4 defensemen, they have Clifton and Ryan Johnson. Paying upwards of 4 million for what shoehorns him into the bottom pair when everyone is healthy doesn't make sense.
Understood on Cates. I personally wouldn't have a problem adding small to that offer. Still seems reasonable though, even with the Bonk trajectory.

I'd tend to agree, but I think Krebs and Hayton 1 for 1 could be achieved, or even adding a 3rd or 4th to Krebs gets it done.

Surplus for need on both sides.
Cates doesn't put up much offense and Jokiharju can be used on any pair (best as 3-5). Sabres need a defensively sound bottom 6 C, Flyers need a younger defenseman for their on the fly retool.

Yeah that's an overpay by AZ, but I'm not sure how useful that is to Buffalo. Not sure Hayton would be that interesting of a target to use Joker on.

Sabres 4th Line Offseason
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BUFF36</b></div><div>Quinn Savoie 2025 1st ?</div></div>
that price will never be paid. the offense is nowhere near the value of that return.
I don't have a problem using Savoie or Kulich 1 for 1. If not, I also don't have a problem moving on.
Getting Will Carrier back in the org as a UFA offers far more value than losing a 1st, Quinn and Savoie.

Sabres 4th Line Offseason
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CuyahogaKid</b></div><div>Sabres fan here, if your goal is to pry Crouse out of Arizona, it’s going to take a haul to do so. You’re going to need to start with Kulich, and/or an unprotected 2024 first round pick.
My guess is that they will want a top prospect, an NHl roster player (Quinn or Peterka) and probably a first round pick.
Is that an overpayment? Yes of course it is, but that’s what it will take to pry Crouse out of Arizona. He is a top six F with size and toughness and signed to a team friendly deal. Not gonna be cheap what so ever.
But, yes I would pay that because guys like Crouse don’t grow on trees.</div></div>
Hm. Wonder if Rosen and Jokiharju does the job. I'm not sure I want to spend much more on a bottom 9 player.

Just seeing what makes sense. Not sure if a prospect will break through at camp. Rather find guys ready now.
Sorry about Bryson. He's a 7th, find another one, don't care.
Owner and GM are are obsessed with Girgensons. Might as well accept it.

Fine, send them Jost and a 3rd round pick. Using a player like Mittelstadt to acquire a player like Laughton is asset abuse.

So, a 4th line center for a horribly coached team, and a late first round pick, which is... a pick.
My questions remains unanswered.

Love Savoie. Love Quinn too. That said, it could be that at least one (maybe both) could be in for a troubled career injury-wise.
Just a thought. Having a little fun. Waiting for slings and arrows to come my way.

the other site used rosen instead of quinn
don't think the value is there. think quinn-savoie-1st gives the org way more long term value
