Probably they were not paralyzed in the sense that the big ticket FAs likely were not interested. But if you are keeping money in reserve dependent on whether you are going to match an offer sheet or sign Byram to a contract, presumably one isn't using that cap space to go after an Ehlers, for instance. Regardless, at this point, they can wait it out if they want.

Well said, from a 63 yo that has been a fan since September 1970

I don't see a suggestion there. It's an observation. We don't spend to cap, do you disagree? Didn't KA say that they were proactively dumping salary so that offer sheets for Byram could be matched?

Please explain how the Sabres are paralyzed? Is there a deadline to move Byram? Does the season start next week? Is your Hot Pocket taking too long? Chill.

If you're going to call our GM dumb, don't make your own dumb suggestions

So would Danny Gare.

The team that doesn’t spend to cap was dumping salaries because of Bo Byram’s potential offer sheet. Only Adams.

Wait... trade for William Eklund so I can show y'all he's better than Power.

They view Smith as a winger. Paired him with Celebrini this past year.

There's talk they could put Torey Krug on LTIR which would free up $6.5m of their cap. Yet if rumors of Byram wanting $9.0m then they'd still have to make another move to get under the cap.

https://puckpedia.com/team/buffalo-sabres shows that Byram reaches UFA status in 2027-28. Personally keeping Byram for another season feels like a mistake.

A lot of media noise yesterday concerning the Blues trying hard to make a deal for Byram. They have cap concerns which means they would have to deal vets in return to make it work. The offer sheet idea for them makes no sense .

Not to mention your neighbors who are sleeping. Happy 4th! My late great parents were married on this day 80 years ago. It's also my anniversary. Enjoy the day.

No

How about Smith ? Sharks just added another young C in Misa , they have Celebrini.

I think this change in his plan buys KA a few more years as GM.

At this point, if you were Bo Byram, would you actually want to play in Buffalo now?

My cat is sleeping. No play. No I want food. Going to get some fireworks and scare the crap out of her

I'd try to get a hair more

Sharks have hamburg native Quentin Musty. I'd start there in a Byram deal. Liljegren, Musty, and a 2026 2nd for Byram.

Went for cats Saturday evening. These 2 caught their first ever catfish. The little guy's was just short of a master angler by 2 1/2 inches. The other one was a over 34 inches, so it was a master angler.

Traded him mid-season.

It sure sounds like Adams has an in-demand asset with a high number of suitors who don’t have a number of alternate options. It also sounds like Byram has a gifted agent who is almost certainly using his clients Unsigned status to manouvere talks in Byram’s preferred directions? This is where Jarmo’s 30 years in the business have to come in handy.

I saw a msg somewhere else that the Sabres gave up the rights to Sardarian. Had a pretty damn good year in college.

Watched for offense, ignored the D. If @LGR4GM says we only have three, then these three stood out to me. Kopff - I think we should expect to stand out in this. Richard - who doesn't look like a 6th round pick at least in this short video. Ziemer - has some skillz at or near the tier of the above two. Looking at the roster, though, nice to see some local kids on D. If anyone should desire to play the game with a little aggression, local kids should after watching, and being disappointed by, the Sabres during their formative years.
