The Sabres are in a decent spot now. (What a difference an hour makes!) Jokiharju and Stillman are 7 and 8 D right now. I suppose one could go in the trade.

thewookie1 Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 I could definitely see Buffalo still acquiring Pesce in order to completely overhaul the defense Muel - Dahlin Power - Pesce Stillman - Clifton Johnson Bush and Jokiharju are moved The signings do rid us of that desperation we had for Pesce which can't hurt either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just assuming it's a right. Could be Hannifin to. I just see him making a trade, but, only KA and his team know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. Granato is not going to turn his back on Clifton, and Johnson is guaranteed a spot (as he should be), so 5 of 6 D are locks. (And Luybushkin should be considered solid fo that third pair.) No room for Pesce. Just now, Scottysabres said: Could be. I'm basing my guess on all the talking heads saying KA was searching for a top 4 D. I'm just assuming it's a right. Could be Hannifin to.

No room for Pesce. I honestly don't believe Johnson is a lock for 5/6 to be perfectly honest. He's rather old at this point and is very likely to be more of an in & out of the lineup guy who is there to mentor the young defenseman more than actually fill a role on a continuous basis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I agree with this. Johnson got 17 minutes a night and a lot of PK time but played less when the Avs were healthy. I kinda expect him to be a 6/7 guy who can play PK and move up the lineup in a pinch in a way Clague and Bryson could not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
