Why does Krebs need a change of scenery? He's a huge part of the Sabres' future.
Who trades a cost-controlled, RFA, top-4 RD for a 3rd round pick?<strong>

If Canucks struggle, wouldn't it mean Demko struggle as well ? They need to rely on him to be playoff team</div></div><div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PHEN</b></div><div>Sabres decline all the moves on this post</div></div>

While Turcotte was take 6th OA and Krebs was taken 17th Turcotte has only seven more AHL points than Krebs has NHL pts.
Preseason is not a perfect indication of regular season performance.
<strong>This is an easy no from Buffalo!</strong>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AntiAnalytics</b></div><div>...But game 1 of the playoffs, Okposo will be in the lineup...</div></div> <div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PHEN</b></div><div>For sure!!...<strong>The line up looks really good!</strong></div></div> <div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Czu8iks</b></div><div>I can see multiple young players simply outplaying him for ice-time</div></div> Quinn, Peterka, Krebs, Levi (probably Luukkonen as well) and Power will have break out seasons.
The Leafs are finding out they cannot win with only two top lines, Boston will still be good but not 135 pts good, Tampa lost Killorn and Colton while finishing only 7 pts ahead of Buffalo, and Florida may suffer from playoff fatigue.
Yezerman made great aquisitions, Ottawa underperformed last year so there will be a changing of the guard soon.
My big bold prediction 100 pts and easily make the playoffs.

Thread: Sabres
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLLGRW</b></div><div>I think it definitely makes sense for Detroit as Savoie is a right shot skilled center which they need. Sabres don't really need him and actually need a center like Veleno who is a bottom six center who can really skate and is better defensively.</div></div>

It makes no sense for Buffalo. We arent parting with Savoie, you make him sound expendable which he isnt, especially not for scrap parts. Veleno is not good, the biggest thing of his career so far was stomping on a player in the WC and rightfully getting suspended. We have tons of better centre prospects and players to play 3C. And Savoie is a far better skater than Veleno btw and no slouch defensively, so if we needed what you describe we would again just keep Savoie
