I would love Gavrikov to pair with Dahlin. Play them 30 minutes a night.

Norris Rossi McLeod Krebs is a respectable centre spine. Add some defensive D and an upgrade on UPL and you are getting closer to contending for a playoff spot.

If the Wild want prospects/picks in return. I have a feeling they want a bigger centre in return unless they take the picks/prospects and swap them somewhere else for a bigger centre. Quinn for Rossi is about even without adding all that other stuff but Quinn + one more asset for Rossi would work

Sounds like Leafs and Tavares are far apart. What kind of deal would you offer him to come in. 3 years at $7.5 million?

The answer is in the room😁

This was not a rumor. It was two guys in a podcast talking about what the Sabres should do with him.

“ Teams Best & Worst Draft Picks of the Last Decade - The Athletic Best: Brandon Hagel The Sabres have hit on some talent at the top of the draft, but the best value pick the franchise has made this decade is finding Hagel in the sixth round of the 2016 draft. Of course, the Sabres botched it by not signing him to an entry-level contract and letting him walk. He’s since become a 90-point player for the Lightning and was on Team Canada at the 4 Nations Face-Off. Worst: Alexander Nylander The No. 8 pick in the 2016 NHL Draft, Alexander Nylander, played just 19 games and scored only three goals for Buffalo. He has just 49 points in the NHL and has now played for five different NHL teams. Mikhail Sergachev, Charlie McAvoy and Jakob Chychrun all went after him in the top half of the first round in 2016. — Matthew Fairburn” Ofcourse the Sabres best value pick is the guy they don’t sign to an ELC who goes on to be a star in the league. Botts gift to the Sabres that keeps on giving. 😂

Why does everyone want to throw Power away like he is a piece of garbage?

All these mock offseasons I see in different place and everyone keeps the goaltending the same. They need a new goaltender.

Outside of Zucker what deals have Adams made that helped the team improve and push them close to a playoff spot?

Ah yes like the “plans” for the past 5 years under Adams and for the past 14 years overall. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

It’s becoming more obvious that there is no real plan and the only plan is Adams doing whatever whim Pegula mentions. It will be interesting to see if Jarmo has any sway at all.

This headline would: ”Sabres add Dudley, DeBoer in Organizational Reshuffle”

So apparently you are allowed to fire assistant coaches in the league. Interesting.😁

It’s so laughable that Adams put his focus on rebuilding the 4th line last offseason. You can find these guys for league minimum but Adams acted like it was a major project.

Adams: “Hey Rick Dudley you just won back to back Cups. Do you want to come home to Buffalo and work directly for me? Hello….Hello…. We have Seth Appert lined up as next coach….Hello”

Canucks insiders saying Canucks trying to get Byram. I’ll say it again: Norris Byram, UPL, prospect for EP40 , Demko, Marcus Petterson 😁😛 I know it’s crazy. There is a ton of smoke between the Canucks wanting Byram and trying to acquire Norris at the deadline that I’d be surprised if some deal between the two teams doesn’t happen. What it ends up looking like I have no idea.

I don’t care what his save percentage is I need this man in the crease this season😁

I’m now at the point mentally where I’m expecting to be completely underwhelmed with the draft, free agency and any trades they might make. I think I’m officially in the “Sisyphus and the boulder” phase of Sabres fandom.

He’s a tall lanky RHC with tremendous hockey sense, playmaking ability. Great skill but he doesn’t compete like a Martin or Bear. Has potential to be a top 6 centre. https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=271144

Alas if only there was a top shelf NHL coach available with no coaching vacancies to fill league wide at the moment….oh wait.

Paging Liger!😁
