The Kypreos Sabre “insight” offers nothing but his personal speculation about what he’s seen reported elsewhere.

Same for all the national guys and local beat alike.  This front office does not leak anything.

LOL Vegas can’t help themselves. They just have to make the big splash everytime and end up sending out the shiny new toy they just acquired.

swapping Hertl for Marner doesn’t help them that much.

Vegas can’t help themselves? You say this like it’s a bad thing.

Think what you like but Sabres could only dream to have ownership and a GM doing whatever it takes to be relevant year in year out with a chance to win.

Marner to Vegas would be a huge move for them and he’s younger and better than Hertl. Great moves if they happen.

Vegas has destroyed their team building since winning the Cup. It will come back to bite them as there is zero loyalty to players.

I would love the Sabres to be like Vegas but I think they are going a little overboard.

If they do not trade him I expect Peterka will get offer sheeted. What Sabres do with that will be anyone's guess. Probably match and then trade.

Pretty sure you can't. At least not for a year.

It depends who makes the offer, if it's the Rangers I might let him go as don't see them significantly improved with JJP. Yet if it's Tampa mmmm tougher call.

Neither the Rangers nor the Lightning can make an offer sheet in the expected JJP $7-9.3M range. They don’t have their picks.

Only 12 teams can:

The teams I could see doing it do have their picks.  Chicago, Anaheim, Pittsburgh, Boston, and most of all Philly. Calgary, Detroit, L.A., Montreal all in there too. 

Philly and Boston are the two teams I would watch the most. They do not want to wait and draft. They both think they can win now.

I'd worry more about Boston as I said. They are thinking they can get back in it quickly. So I can see them offer sheeting Peterka and if not that I think they will pay big for Boeser. Maybe more. They also might trade their pick for Dobson before Sabres even get a chance to offer theirs.

If so many teams are supposedly interested in JJP - isn’t that a sign of a player that the Sabres should keep?

Like, seriously, what are we doing here?
