He's not holding Eichel back and he leads the team in points

If I were Buffalo, I'd want another solid piece.

Thread: First Trade Lets Go

gee the Sabres fans are antsy and ready to pull the trigger soon in the season. The thing about the Sabres is exactly what Ryan O'reilly said, what is the vision of this team, where is the boat going. The owners wife has a ton of input for a person that has never played the game. A lot of turnover in staff. They went and got Stall a 36 year old as their 2nd C. I love Eric and he has had a great career but their is a reason he was not wanted. He is like all of us getting old. Also why did Skinner have such a drop off in production? I would sit down with him and find out why.

Oh dam, I would do this trade then in a heartbeat, and yes on the second line Ristolainen would look like a top 25 d next to a defensive player.

retain 1-1.5 on Ghost if you want that package for him. If not just Montour for Ghost straight up

Thread: Not A Bad Team

Hults, Madden and Byfield won’t be playing in the NHL next season, simply due to the two former not being ready as well as there being no reason to rush Byfield in a rebuilding season.

As much as I’d love to add Krug and bring back Toffoli, neither are happening. Kings aren’t going to make a splash in free agency at least for a few years yet. No reason to dish hefty amounts of cap out when you aren’t going to be a contender, not to mention they’ll be decently old when the contending window opens back up.

Iafallo - Kopitar - Brown
Kempe - Vilardi - Frk
Moore - Lizotte - Carter
Grundstrom - Amadio/JAD - Wagner

*insert acquired DFD* - Doughty
Anderson - Roy
MacDermid - Walker

Peterson/Quick

Unless Blake moves some assets around via trade of makes some signings for the bottom 6, that’s the likely lineup for next season.

Thread: Just Might Work

I hate to be that guy, but you are probably over the cap with performance bonuses. Also, you generally want to be able to run a 22-23 man roster.

Thread: Just Might Work

Definitely looks like a better team, when has Namestnikov played center though? I know he's listed as one but has he ever played center?

Dillon is gonna get more and I don't think the Sabres should be giving up their 2nd for a rental even though the Sabres blow their 2nd round picks usually.. Lol

Thread: Sabres Fans

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>deviner92</b></div><div>McCabe has only played on the left. Good trade idea but Sabres probably decline only because they presently have only 2 left D who can play in the NHL. McCabe and Dahlin. Bryson is close in Rochester but needs another year. McCabe is the type of Dman the Leafs could use though; kind of like Muzzin but less skilled offensively. Makes gigantic hits from time to time.</div></div>

Appreciate the feedback. I understand the Sabres would decline the trade listed above; I wasn't actually suggesting that. This was just to find out if he could play on the right (because I agree with you, he would be useful to the Leafs) and what a potential trade could look like if so.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>deviner92</b></div><div>Dubas wanted Montour before the Sabres traded for him. Well known.</div></div>

Source on that? Everything I ever saw on that was pure speculation. Besides the fact that even if it were true, that was two years ago... things change.

Thread: Realistic Offseason for BUF

I like the roster build. I would want a Cozens at 3c as opposed to 1RW. Hopefully by the end of the year he is playing 2C, much along the lines of what happened with Dach this year in Chicago.

Really like the McCann pickup but not sure the Pens need a RHD, Letang is on the backend of his career though so maybe.

Thread: Kevyn Adams

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MG1986</b></div><div>While I assume Adams will attempt to make some sort of moves this offseason, between the fact that he will be micromanaged by the owners, he comes into the GM with zero managerial experience and that this team has no clear direction with a hockey ops department cut by two-thirds, I really do believe Buffalo will have a quiet offseason minus whatever the "riches" the draft may bring them. I fully expect this team to have fired Adams by this time next year.</div></div>

I get where you are coming from, but I dont agree. I think Kruger is driving the ship and he will make moves through Adams.

Thread: Detroit and Tampa fans weigh in

Ya those are the most likely players to go in the top 6 unfortuantely. I'd really like Rossi and hope teams pass over him because of his size (just like Caufield). But there are a ton of great players still left so dealing the 2020 1st is a huge gamble, but on a player like Cirelli it would be a really wise choice.

Thread: Buffalo CBO - No Cap Increase

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>papishark</b></div><div>not skinner?</div></div>

Absolutely not. Skinner will still put up 30 goals consistently. Okposo is the most expensive 4th line player in the league. Skinner had an off year, can't blame him, he was playing with Johan Larsson and Curtis Lazar as his centers for half of the season
