Chad D: expect a Byram trade at or around the draft
Turbo44 replied to dudacek's topic in The Aud Club
If we do still intend on trading Byram (I would not) what teams do we think are still in the mix/could give us a good return. With the prices d are getting in UFA, I wouldn’t trade him without a very good return + Orlov is really the last UFA I’d be interested in and he may be fading If we could sign Suter and Orlov I wouldn’t might getting a 1st round pick + for Byram given the market and available players I’m re-upping Byram (who has very good stats with Dahlin) and signing a winger who can play top 6: Suter, Ehlers (pipe dream), nyquist - Today

Yep esp millers and ceci’s. Granlund I thought was going to get $6m per so he’s not that out of line. Ehlers will prob get $9m or more, which is a pipe dream for us. Hoping for Suter for us, maybe 2 years 4.5 - 5 per re-up Byram 2 for 13m, Timmins 2 for 4m, sign Suter 2 for 9m, leaves us with 1m or so cap space, call it an offseason and I think most of us would be happy

Sabres sign UFA Goaltender Alex Lyon to 2 year 1.5 million dollar contract

Allen should fire his agent for the contract he accepted - he should have gotten twice of what he did -

No interest in Andersson; he did a nose dive last year stats wise and I have zero interest in trading Byram for a rental that we may end up trading at the deadline or having to use as a rental of extreme cost. I'd say Byram is better to be honest but value wise they are likely close if not equal. A 2026 1st with some protection, a 2026 2nd and a lesser roster player. Depending on the offers an offer-sheet compensation could be preferable due to the lack of conditions on the 1st. Terrible targets seeing as most of the players are either rentals who want to be UFAs or Bot 6 guys akin to the Peterka trade. Ideally if you can pull off a Miller-esc trade return you could turn that 1st and Rosen into Rakell and call it an offseason unless someone comes knocking for Muel. -
Levi needs to be able to take the time he needs to reach his peak; goalies are also complete voodoo in terms of scouting. Aside Allen who got a rough contract for what he is, Lyon was the best on the UFA market arguably. They all have their warts but Lyon has successfully gone nuts for 2 months and took a team to the playoffs. The only goalie worth inquiring about in trades was Demko but he got re-signed and I guess Silvovs whom might anger Levi and be the new Robin Lehner of Calder Trophy winning caliber goalies.

Docker signed with Detroit. -
The offseason so far - Are the Sabres better?
Turbo44 replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
No answer until Byram situation and any subsequent related moves occur -
The Granlund deal is insane. So is KA Millers. And Cecis'

SABRES 0311 replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
Answer is still no. McLeod signing doesn’t change what already existed. A couple AHL signings. A little more physicality on the backend. KA has to get something done be amuse real soon GMs are going to be content with what they have. Either trade Byram or resign him for what he wants then figure out another way to get the 1st forward line set. -
Defenseman Zac Jones signed to a two way deal
PerreaultForever replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
lol, I've just never heard of him. It's beyond ridiculous this year. I'm starting to wonder if the conversation between Terry and Kevyn was: "So Terry, Dahlin says he wants out if we don't get it together and start building a winner". "Oh does he? Well screw him, let's tank and start over with McKenna. We can get it right this time." -

This sounds like poor team to me. -
The new 8th D. Come on man. Keep track. 😂
-
No it doesn’t since he didn’t have to lose Docker.
-
Anybody else look at the title and think Zay Jones?

Defenseman Zac Jones signed to a two way deal
GASabresIUFAN replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
and people wonder why the defense and team suck. You forget Rathbone, who played 28 games with Van, the immortal Brandon Davidson and Casey Fitzgerald. -
Oh my Michael granlund got 3 year 7M AAV from Anaheim? Ehlers about to get 10M.

Who the F is Zac Jones??? -
This is likely coming anyway. Best case scenario they have a horrible start to the season and realize this has to happen. They likely get it wrong again but this path is not viable. They will never win like this. I'm already looking around to see who might be fun to watch this year. I like hockey too much to give up on it because of the Sabres. I'm just going to watch other teams that might provide entertainment.
