Sorry if this has been discussed but what do you peg the value of Foligno?

I would like to see him in our top 9. He may benefit by playing with Nuge and Eberle.

IMO he's a guy who's got the potential to produce like Wayne Simmonds, but the effort and work effort of Thomas Vanek.

Foligno is a guy that on his own doesn't have a ton of value, but if included in a package could be a key piece to a deal

Hmm, maybe a change wakes him up.

I'd offer a couple picks for him in the middle rounds or a prospect and a pick.

IMO the only way he's moved is if he's packaged with Hoff or someone for a legit top line player

He's the type of guy who I think would thrive in that scenario.

i would wonder if a package like that lands them back near early mid 1st round for another pick that they wanted but believe fell back more than they expected

That may make the most sense from Buffalo's standpoint

Yea I don't think they are looking to dump him, but if a team was interested they shouldn't hesitate to include him

IMO they are another top 4 defensemen and another goal scorer (Kucherov is close to be that guy) from cup contention

They would of made it to the 3rd round if ben bishop was not injured imo

The Sabres don't need Foligno for anything except jersey sales. Being rid of John Scott and Leino will advance this roster by leaps and bounds and Foligno might be the next weakest link holding this roster back. That is assuming Grigorenko starts in ROC.

Foligno is still mad young maybe this is year he get's it ..

i'm just happy he sucked so we can give him a lower contract .


sign him for 4y 1.8 m a year

Foligno is only 22 . The whole team sucked last season. So might be too early to cast him away.

Well they got swept though, I'm not sure just Bishop would have made that series go TB way. However they are gonna be a powerhouse for the next decade. They're ridiculously talented

agreed power forwards start to come around at 24 or 25

I'm sure they lost confidence with anders lindback in net

and had to change up game the plan.


it would be like having no miller for playoffs and having enroth in for us

Yeah I guess my judgment is unfair. I just think Delaurias is more the real deal of that style player. I hope both work out. LA is proving big bodies work!

Ennis Mitchell and Conacher are our only forwards under 6 foot.

Wit the way everyone talks about all of our young players/prospects we are going to have one of the best teams ever.

I am excited too, don't get me wrong. but some of these guys are just simply not going to pan out.

If Foligno was not from Buffalo, IMO he would not be the fan favorite he is.

we have a lot of 3/4th line players, a few 2nd line potential and pretty much no one for the top line without gross over achievement..

I don't even think Foligno is too much of a fan favorite anymore
