Thread: Eichel probably unrealistic but thought I would give it a try
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OlegP</b></div><div>Buffalo is losing leverage. Teams are losing cap space today. Ottawa would be a player with their cap if Eugene Melnyk wasnt the owner. Sabres better get cracking soon.</div></div>
Why does everyone seem to think the Sabres have to trade him before the season starts? They don’t. Teams are not willing to meet the Sabres asking price, so I expect they hang onto him until he is back healthy and playing to his normal level of capability. When someone is willing to meet the Sabres asking price that’s when you’ll see a trade. They are not going to sell him for less than he is worth just to get rid of him, unless He’s never going to play again. And I am pretty sure that unless he can pass a physical nobody is going to trade for him.

Thread: Not Totally sure where to go from here
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JokiStan</b></div><div>My issue with putting the eggs in the Bedard / Michkov basket is with Power, Quinn, and JJP all coming up in 2022-23 and a pretty large amount of cap I don't think it's likely we will be bad enough to have a strong chance at either</div></div>
It’s not necessarily about whether the Sabres are bad enough to get those picks, it’s whether someone we trade with now is. Just imagine the Sabres win the lottery again next year, Owen Power joins us the next season, then one of the teams whose first round picks we own wins the lottery the following year. Everyone complains, but it doesn’t count against buffalo’s allotment of lottery wins because it technically wasn’t Buffalo’s pick.

Thread: Rangers Makin Moves
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tea</b></div><div>not really. i bet the rangers would be fine giving up miller, since dahlin is a better LD, and they've already got a stacked right side, and they wouldn't have to give up lafreniere. all they'd have to do is give up miller, a 1st, and 2nd and a good prospect like robertson or richards. the sabres have said they're willing to give up reinhart for a 1st and a prospect, so a 1st, 2nd, richards, and miller would be great for the sabres, and a sacrifice the rangers would be willing to make atm.</div></div>
Your mid range prospects are not that interesting. Your GM just gave away a good second line forward for a decent third line player and a second round pick. Buffalo doesn’t want a handful of maybes, they want to make sure they have a guaranteed core player coming back in return for guys who are core players.
