Thread: lets do it
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sabres89</b></div><div>Brysons stock keeps climbing. We have a ton of left d, and our future at wing looks pretty decent. Goaltending should be addressed by grabbing a league average guy on the cheap. Look at who we have either here or coming soon on the wings- olofsson, tuch, quinn, peterka, asplund, possibly rosen, and im guessing at least one of krebs/thompson/mittelstadt ends up on the wing, plus i believe two of the russian kids and bloom that we just drafted. I dont see much reason to look for a winger unless you wanna add a specific skill set- tougher or faster for instance. Its a solid group on paper. Center doesnt look nearly as strong to me- i think our first this year is on a center that will be a top line center. Cozens is probably fine to pencil into the top 6. The rest im not sold on yet, but of course, you arent getting a top 6 center for jacob bryson. I suppose what makes sense to me is a right d that knows where his own zone is and maybe finishes his checks. Thats my choice.</div></div>

You’re not wrong, but right handed shooting defenders are a lot harder to get out of other teams right now. There seems to be a shortage league wide, so even mediocre right handed shooting defensemen are going for more than they are probably worth. Having another guy you can plug-in and see if he fits isn’t a bad thing. You can try to parlay some of that wing depth into a younger Center via trade with a team that doesn’t have as much wing depth as we do if such a trade is possible.

Thread: Sabres Rebuild Part 1 Deadline Fire Sale
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>delneggs</b></div><div>You're the one that posted a trade to THE RANGERS, not me. If you just want a 1st round pick from ANYONE, then say so in the comments and you won't get replies like mine. It's on you, not people that are just responding to what you post. And pointing out that the Rangers have no need for him is not quibbling about value, it is stating the obvious. And it doesn't mean another team won't give up a 1st for him, just not the Rangers.</div></div>

Where should I begin? I didn’t post the trade, I replied to your comment. Nowhere in my comment did I say the Sabres should trade Colin Miller to the Rangers or that the Rangers have any need for him. What I did say is maybe the Rangers don’t need him but other teams probably will, and would pay the price being asked, especially if he has salary retained. Perhaps you need to look into improving your reading comprehension before criticizing anyone else.
