Thorny Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 Just now, dudacek said: Might be as simple as moving either UPL or Comrie out, moving on from Subban, and running Levi/UPL/Tokarski/Cooley. And adding Johnson and Clifton while dumping Clague and pushing Stillman and Bryson down the depth chart. But it also still leaves us open for bigger acquisitions as well if they wish Ya if that’s what results it’s a status quo offseason with a couple moneypuck D adds. Not exactly unexpected, but nonetheless would be disappointing I think Kevyn has made all his plan B moves. I could see him being ready to roll with this crew of if no deal strikes the value he wants 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather have any of the these free agents at $2-3 million a year than Olofsson at $4.75 million a year. Olofsson good on power play, has a GREAT shot. finishes games with empty nets, has 28 goals in part time work. Have to start there. That said I want him traded What do these other Forwards have that replaces what we lose? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s hard to score goals when you’re not in the lineup because the coach considers you a liability. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorny Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 Skinner - Thompson - Tuch Mittelstadt - Cozens - Peterka Olofsson - Krebs - Greenway Girgensons - Jost - Okposo (Rousek) Samuelsson - Dahlin Power - Clifton Stillman - Johnson (Lyubushkin, Jokiharju, Bryson) Levi (UPL, Comrie) That’s what we are looking at right now. Could just see the removal of 1 or 2 of the bolded D men, and 1 of the bolded goalies, and a run back with a modestly improved D unit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHHH, I got trolled for saying that On 6/30/2023 at 10:20 AM, Flashsabre said: The problem is the league has no cap space. That is why there has been a lack of trades and why teams are giving players away for free. Also means some of these UFAs are in for a rude awakening when teams can’t pay the $ they hope to get. Kind of like Football and the Bills. Got a lot of 1 year deals for good players at under 2.5 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudacek Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 Adams looks to have properly used free agency: Fill in your holes without tying yourself into any anchor contracts. Still would like a better D than Clifton, but UFA was never the place we were going to get that. Dahlin/Power/trade/Samuelsson/Clifton/Johnson/any of the others is a D corps that can contend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The extensions won’t affect the cap this season, at least Most players don't want one year deals unless they are old. So yes, Sabres can get 1 year rentals.

LGR4GM Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 Man, I think you all have forgotten how effective Lyubushkin can be and was on that 3rd pair. Not his fault he was dragging Bryson or Clague around with him. Just now, Brawndo said: Orlov and Soucey were better options, but Orlov went to a contender and Soucey stayed in the Pacific Northwest.

Brawndo Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 They now have 5.8 in cap space with 25 players on the roster. I do wonder if they would consider a cap dump or two if someone else becomes available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk how they keep Comrie around unless they move on from UPL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fail to see a BIG jump with Talent that helps our Offense. Parading last years team basically hoping it grows. Our Fourth line will not grow, hope it holds its own. So if we are lucky we get 7-8th seed. With some decent upgrades maybe we could have gotten to 4-6. Splash, 2-3. Levi better stay Healthy!

He knows what he has in Olofsson, think he really wanted to see his young guys. Sabres will need his shot early with Quinn out. Lets hope he Improves his 5 on 5 play. He will NEVER be a two way player. Need to pair him with a Two way forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pastajoe Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 My dream trade would be: Hellebuyck, Iafallo for Jokiharju, Olofsson, UPL, Ostrand or Rosen If need be add Middelstadt to the mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellebuyck is a pipe dream. 1) He's a UFA after this year 2) He's going to command way to much AAV and Term when all we need is a guy to take some work from Levi as he developes. 3) it flies totally in the face of everything KA has been doing.
