Him or Tanguay would be great

No thanks, love Gaudreau but thats the path to being Edmonton. All offense no defense.

Sabres signing any PTO's? I'd take Legwand, Tanguay, and Quincy and see where things go this preseason with our youngsters

I disagree, kinda, I think he intends to resign him but after the expansion draft. He's not going to expose assets if his hand isn't forced. So barring Kulikov becoming Risto's Defensive soulmate; I'd guess he'd leave signing him for the week between the expansion draft and FA.

Any interest in Alex Tanguay as a placeholder/ PTO or Brad Boyes, same idea Tanguay is preferred since he still seems to put up some points and won a cup.

Good deal, term keeps him from running into Eichel/Reinhart's contract

True Randall

If we could trade Franson, and sign Risto to 7yrs 5.5mil I'd try to trade our 1,2, and 3rd round picks for Lindholm. Then sign him to a 7 year 5.5mil contract

Wasn't meant to be Sabres just the 1st numbers I thought of

How many you need? 6 24 10 17 9 2

So he's sorta loaned from Sweden to the Steelheads who loaned him to Rochester.

1. Okposo - same reasons as many others have said 2. Nylander - Would of loved Juolevi but I'm in no way disappointed with the pick. I think he plays in Rochester most of the year and ends up getting a wiff of the NHL sometime near the last 10 games 3. Growth of Bailey and Guhle - Both looked a lot better in the prospects camp; Bailey will be a full time NHLer by season's end. Guhle likely could but Juniors rules prevent it.

Most recent idea. https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/181330 Hudler Legwand

25 was already taken by Vacslav Varada

He's #19, so I guess we now know why he waited until the 19th to decide his destination

Brain drain at WGR. Could he get annoying, yes, but at very least he was very informative and was a good balance to Rivet while Peters in on vacation. He was also very much willing to answer questions on twitter so I'll certainly miss having "contact" with one of the people I follow.

Sabres, Top 6, 16-20

Like the old ET game?

Don't be so pessimistic, we'll sneak in on the bubble :) otherwise I feel about the same. Barring Ennis of old returning and/or Moulson playing well. Otherwise we need a 2nd LW to run with Eichel and Reinhart. You could put Girgs there but then Larsson line ends up as the 3rd line and Ennis and Moulson end up on the 4th.

From wiki, Jágr wears the number 68, which he has worn through his entire career, in honour of the Prague Spring that occurred in Czechoslovakia in 1968 and his grandfather, who died while in prison that same year.

Awesome read, I honestly wonder if there are any ways to improve helmets to at very least help more preventing concussions. Since hitting should never be taken out of the game, hockey is meant to be rough and grueling not a purely finesse sport

Sabres make it to playoffs, shock the league by winning in the 1st round then lose in 6 in the 2nd round. Lehner and Eichel do well in the playoffs but the biggest story is Sam Reinhart's play in the playoffs being incredible. With 13 points in 12 games including a hattrick in Game 6 of the 1st round to win the series.

I'd like Nelson to get some AHL time, I'd love to get Wisniewski cheap for a year. If not that then I'd bring Weber back for a year if cheap enough.

He's a #1/2 more than likely with loads of potential going forward, but I wouldn't mind 1 more guy with that potential.
