Eichel for Dach, Debrincat, 11 OA, Reichel, and we formally apologize for the Hasek-Beauregard trade.š

You are not going to like it.š Chad is in the āNo one will give a top prospect for Jackā mindset.

A poster on another board posted this. I think Adams is on the right track and if teams are still involved then that is a good sign. āSome Insider at the athletic got a quote from an anonymous nhl executive that the asking price for eichel was 6 piecesā Top six under 24 player F top 4 Under 24 player D 1 Bluechip prospect / 2 mid prospects 1st round

What a stupid take. If he was decided at the end of the season they would have announced it. If they announced him as coach at end of the season then people would bitch they didnāt do a real search. They have done a real search, talked to many coaches from all different avenues. People are bitching that they did a real search, that it is taking to long or trying to spin it as, āwell they are pretending it is a real search but really it is not.ā Some people just want crap to complain about no matter what.

If only there was a two way transition playmaking centre that could fit like a glove with him available.š

This is why I think 3 OA is so appealing to Adams. If he could come away with Beniers and Power I think he would be thrilled. That is why I think if he gets 3rd too then Beniers might be the 1st pick. Make sure you get the guy Seattle is probably high on as well and role the dice they take someone else at 2 and Power drops to 3. Beniers just fits Adams description of Sabres hockey to a tee.
-
It think you put Dach and Cozens together again as a power skill top line. Hope you get your Getzlaf-Perry combo for a decade.
-
I think Dach is more likely than Zegras to be offered because of the draft pick position 3 vs 11. I actually think Adams would prefer Dach based on his comments about hard skill hockey. But I also think he really is interested in Beniers because of those comments and would prefer 3 OA pick. I really loved Cozens and Dachās chemistry at the WJCs prelims before Dach got injured. Maybe Adams accepts the Dach deal (if on the table) and just drafts Beniers 1 OA. That would push his hard skill, fast, team oriented vision for the team.

https://twitter.com/CBJcoverage/status/1407105331101118478?s=20 Friedman: Sabres are asking āa tonā for Eichel and are ādeep in discussions with several teams.ā āIād be lying if I said I knew [a trade] was close, but Iāll tell you this. I believe those conversations with teams, Anaheim and Columbus among them, are pretty in depth.ā #CBJ

He signed a two year deal. He should be back and ready to go and he does play a style Adams wants.
-
Maybe he goes home to St. Louis then.

https://twitter.com/F1RETHECANNON/status/1407133587795853313?s=20 Reinhart+Risto or VO for Tkachuk+ he plays the style Adams wants to play moving forward.

Reading KAās comments from Lanceās story it sounds like they are sick of the divaās BS and want to move him and create a team that works hard and plays for each other. Iām sure the Captainās comment that āJack Eichel has to look out for Jack Eichelā just cemented that for them.
-
Yeah, Frolik and Eakin were Krueger specials, no analytics were involved in those choices. Hopefully they find a couple guys who are hard to play against and can impact the game positively for the bottom 6.

āHeart, compete, fast skill, but hard skill,ā said Adams. āThereās a lot of skilled players out there in the playoffs, but it's a hard skill and willingness to go to the hard areas, just that type of team identity. Also, an identity of team first, really believing in each other. Getting away from anyone in this organization or on this team that's more concerned about themselves.ā From Lanceās new article this is a quote from Adams about what he sees as Sabres identity moving forwards. Sounds an awful lot like a certain Michigan centre.š
-
I wonder if they got 3 OA if they would change their strategy. We donāt know who they like but letās say they like Power and Beniers. They think Seattle loves Beniers but arenāt as high on Power. They draft Beniers 1st so Seattle donāt take him and role the dice that Seattle donāt take Power and they get him at #3.
-
They win the trade because they get an extra letter.š
-
Quinn, 1 0A, any other high picks this draft, JJ, UPL. They should all develop in lower leagues. The key though is what the Sabres have failed miserably at: signing one year deals with NHL players that can come in and actually positively contribute as short term solutions.
-
The Michigan 3 are on the cover of the Hockey News Draft Edition too. The Marketing!!
-
I listed those guys as their main pieces that they could include in a trade that would interest Buffalo. Not that all of them would be included in the same deal.
-
As opposed to other drafts where there is a major drop off after the top 3 it isnāt as pronounced in this draft. Iām not saying same tier, just that the drop isnāt as big as other years.
-
That would be a home run but you wouldnāt get all that. Dach, 11OA, Reichel, cap dump would be more like it and still a very good return. Dach is a big, stud High end young centre who has great chemistry with Cozens. Reichel can fly and is buddies with JJ, 11 OA isnāt far off quality wise from 3 OA in this draft.
