Thread: Sabres offseason moves
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jdfitz77</b></div><div>The way i look at it, Montour is a top4 defenseman. And he’s a RH shot. Those are always in demand
That’s more valuable than a 3C

And i just don’t see the value in trading him for guy to put in a spot higher up than we should
Already made that mistake too many times already,
haven’t we?

Imo, Montour should be traded for a legit top6 forward,
even if we have to add to make that happen</div></div>


I mean right now our center depth is Eichel, out of position Johansson, Larsson, and Lazar. We don't really have a legit 2C or 3C on this team. Getting Tierney would be a huge upgrade to our top 6 and our center depth.

It would be amazing if we could get a 2C for Montour+, but I just don't expect that to happen.

Thread: Sabres
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sabreshockey53</b></div><div>Tyler Ennis isn't a center....</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shibbal18</b></div><div>he came into this league as one</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>thewookie1</b></div><div>Still unwilling to make any moving down trades; especially with Ottawa as it would give a division rival picks 3,5, and 8

This team isn't making the playoffs so I can't back it either. If Tyler Ennis is our 2C we are in serious trouble.

Dahlstrom isn't worth bothering with. I'd rather keep Miller and just have Borgen be the 7th D.

If we need Smith for some apparent reason we would likely acquire assets versus give them up.</div></div>

Ennis at 2C is the same idea as Johannson there they have played it before in their life so it is worth a shot. Just not an idea I am comfortable with. We need someone that has played primarily center at the NHL level and has had recent success doing so. The point in acquiring this center is too insulate Cozens so that he is not forced into a role he is not yet ready for while at the same time providing scoring depth throughout our lineup. We very likely will be in a position like we were one of the last two years with this plan. Either Cozens gets forced to take on the 2C role and it is sink or swim right away like happened with Mitts or We force round peg onto a square whole with Ennis just like Johannson and our 2nd line is largely MIA for the majority of the season
