Brawndo Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 Lance Lysowski came up with a list of prospective centers for the Sabres to target. He added Kerfoot later, but Dvorak would be an interesting, though expensive, target as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Lysowski points out if option A type of players can't be acquired there are some reasonable option B type of players that could be available at reasonable prices. Arranging big deals to get Monahan or Cirelli are going to be tough to work out. But getting one of those secondary type talents would still upgrade our second line and allow us to not only retain some of our other players but also allow us to parlay them for additional help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess would be if Toronto can’t make room and St. Louis tells him to leave Buffalo would be in the running due to location. Besides that I’d be unsure what he’d be drawn here by aside Eichel and Dahlin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudacek Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 Pietrangelo makes a helluvalot more sense for Buffalo than Buffalo does for Pietrangelo. Alex will eat Risto's minutes, solve our PK issues and combine with Dahlin in a legit first pair for a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what is the term and length of the deal you are willing to go? $9x 5 years would be perfect but not likely. What if the ask is $11 x 7 years. He is 30 right now.

There isn’t a team in the league realistically capable of adding a $10 million cap hit under a flat cap, and term for a 30-year-old was risky prior to COVID.

nfreeman Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 I will be pretty unhappy if the Sabres' biggest offseason acquisition is a defenseman and not a 2C, G or 1RW/2RW. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't be bad if it was accompanied by a follow up move(s). You sign Pietrangelo you trade Risto etc. for that 2C. We have to find a way to have 2 top lines even if it means swapping out pieces of equal value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The beauty of that specific situation though, is it (a Piet signing) would basically be impossible without Risto and/or Montour, likely both. You'd have to think a center's part of 1 or both of those trades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our PK is bad because it is a passive pile of garbage that sits in its 1-1-2 formation and allows the other team to do what they want. Adding 1 player won't fix it.

LGR4GM Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 Pientrangelo had 22 points on the pp last year and he won't in Buffalo unless you demote Dahlin to pp2 which would be highly stupid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I should have said “help solve”. Right now we have 2 D with any history of PK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
