Next Year
New Jersey is definetly not giving up Ty Smith, don't see anaheim leaving steel unprotected and Pesce, Van Riemsdyk and Perron will all be protected by their teams.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Krahntinuum</b></div><div>My point was Eakin is not a 3rd line centre... especially on the Oilers roster. McLeod is already a better 3C option than Eakin. If they go after a better 3C it would be someone like Getzlaf or Grandlund, definitely not Eakin.</div></div>
He doesn't necessarily need to fill in at the third line center position however, center depth is always good to have and that way there are a lot of options to make a deep post-season run.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shibbal18</b></div><div>Im nervous, because Granato has done more than enough to win the coaching job in the eyes of many, but he is yet another coach with little to no experience. If it doesnt work this time theyre going into a rebuild no doubt, and we'll be looking at an inevitable 20 year playoff drought. But i do think they have the pieces to be fighting for a wild card spot</div></div>
Granato has definitely turned things around however, don't know if they will contend for a while as they still have a relatively young group with not a ton of experience. If they can add maybe some depth veteran players who maybe arent great players but are able to teach the younger players, It feels like they will have a better shot at the postseason. There are pieces there that could turn out really well if things start to go In the right direction for the sabres.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>arafay</b></div><div>He’s only 21. Let’s calm down a little. And yes he’s taken a bit of time but he’s ready now, the jets have been patient. He will likely be in the lineup next year, at least part time. He likely has a spot on the 4th line which I think is the perfect place for him right now:
Something like:
stastny-scheifele-Connor
Ehlers-dubios-wheeler
Perfetti-Lowry-Copp
Vesalainen-gustafsson-Appleton
It’s crowded for sure and some guys are playing lower than they should (Appleton) but it’s a good lineup imo.
Vesalainen long term is our wheeler replacement.</div></div>
Feels like Seattle would take Appleton if he was left exposed which would probably give Harkins or someone else an opportunity. Also don't know if they would want to go into the season with that much youth in their bottom 6 without adding some veteran presence to teach the kids how to play as the majority of those players are super young still. And maybe a little bit of grit for the bottom 6 as they have thompson and Lewis right now who are good on the PK and solid players who get in the other teams face. I see what you mean about Vesalinen tho

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Skyraider112</b></div><div>Many things you said is pretty uninformed and its evident you haven't followed the Sabres much, so I'll take the opportunity to provide some education. Skinner has played okay, not great and not terrible. He still gets chances to score every game but he is clearly at home with Eichel as his center. Zemgus is a great role player, no need for Buffalo to dump him off. Every team in the league would love to have him on their team, maybe not for 2.2 mil but what he brings to a team is highly sought after. We should not draft Power or any other defenseman in the 1st round unless Berniers, Eklund, and Guenther are off the board (which is highly unlikely as we will draft top 3 or 4. Our future D core is the least of our worries. Dahlin, Joki, Bryson, Borgen, Laaksonen, Samuelsson, Johnson are all young guys who are/will become NHL regulars. Add that to McCabe (who will resign) and Risto (if we don't move him) and you have a very good D-core with a balance of offensive and defensive defensemen. We don't need to "rebuild" the farm system, we just need to take quality players with our picks. It hasn't been a quantitative lack of prospects in the pipeline but rather a qualitative deficiency in the prospects we have</div></div>
Owen Power seems to be the consensus 1st overall pick so if the Sabres get the 1st, don't see why they wouldn't pick him. It's always better to have more depth problems than to have none. Does Girgensons slot into the #4 line as the center depth then? feels like Mittlestadt, Cozens and Eichel are the top 3 centers as Mittlestadt has been playing really well with Ruotsalainen and Asplund and have developed good chemistry together. If that's the case then I can see them not needing to get anyone else to fill that role. If sabres do draft a forward, Im not expecting them to be in the lineup right away so maybe a mother top6 - top9 forward might be needed, especially is Quinn is not ready come opening day. Have not watched a ton of games this year but do think they have good potential if they start playing prospects and building up their system rather than signing older players who are taking away opportunities from the prospects

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shibbal18</b></div><div>Thats because Krueger buried him on the 4th line, Skinner has been better post Krueger. Girgensons has been on LTIR the Sabres wouldnt be interested in moving him at all. Sabres also already have a young dcore, its actually the youngest in the league i believe</div></div>
I believe that New Jerseys might be younger but not by much. However I have not seen a ton of Sabres games this year, but in the games I have seen it feels like they are a much more aggressive team but maybe need to retool rather than go into a full rebuild again.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Zmach</b></div><div>Id be willing to bet haas gets resigned for 2 years. He fits what Tippett and Holland are trying to do.</div></div>
See him filling in more of a winger role as his speed provides good versatility down the wing and he can play up and down the lineup as a winger

Could probably do without Niku but BUF would definitely want a higher pick and a prospect for a right shot D-man and not a terrible player who can slot in all over the backend for the jets

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>arafay</b></div><div>Drop vesalainen from that. He’s really showing some of they potential that I’ve been screaming about on this site. I think the jets are going to want to keep him. The second he gets confidence to shoot more, this kid will be a top 6 forward, mark my words. And to anyone who disagrees with me, I’m going to be checking the receipts</div></div>
I don't see where he fits on this team going forward unless they choose not to bring back stastny but he's been super good for them this season. Feels like he has taken a long time to develop and a change of scenery might be needed to boost his potential in a different market, even if it is Buffalo

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Krahntinuum</b></div><div>Oilers not interested in Eakin. Already have comparable 4th line centres that are cheaper. Jujar Khaira/Gaetan Haas are better.</div></div>
Haas is a free agent after this year and Khaira is a 4th line center at best. Center depth on this team is not great and EDM needs a good 3rd line center to take draws and Eakin fits that role well

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shibbal18</b></div><div>That is precisely why theyre not taking Power. Skinner is also not a 4th liner, and Girgensons is one of their best role players, why are they dumping him for nothing. Quinn is far from ready</div></div>
Skinner has not been playing like a top line player this year and some of their other lines have developed good chem. Girgensons is maybe worth a little more but not much as his value has decreased this season by far and teams are not willing to pay as much for a guy like him. And drafting Power starts to build up a young D-core for the future of this team as they need to rebuild their farm system
