I could buy into this. That's a lot of moves to make, but Murray is savvy enough to do it. I think having a 1a-1b with Lack and Lindback like we started the year last year would be a great way to get a competition going and then ride the hot hand.

Where does Frolik slot? Is he consistent enough for a top-6 or do you still put Gionta there and Frolik on the 3rd?

We have a bunch to sign or move this year. more than in the past. Nothing of big money either.

I'd put Frolik in the top 6 at RW. Assuming Ennis is RW on the 1st line, put Frolik on the 2nd line. Gionta on the 3rd.

I agree, get a nice competition going at camp with Lack and Lindback but I'll assume Lack will be the starter. He has 1 year left on his contract and then he'll be a UFA so let him earn his next contract. Couldn't hurt. They're both Swedes so it'll be a nice comfort level for both. Irbe could turn Lack into a pretty good goalie. He has #1 potential written all over him.

[quote=mhp]Nash won't waive to come here, not a chance.

So Hodgson wasn't in shape to start last season and makes $4+? He stinks. And now he has Claude Lemieux as his agent, Brendan's dad? Buy him out. Kinda sounds like Murray already made up his mind. Use that money to sign Frolik.

31 for Lack and re-sign Lindback.

Our D is very young so I wouldn't mind a vet D man signed. Oduya, Franson come to mind. Maybe we try for Sekera.

Offer sheet Stepan.

31 is too much to give for Lack, it basically a late 1st rounder

My draft

2- Eichel
21- trade up and get Konecny
31- trade for Lack
51- Matthew Spencer D

The draft falls off after around 20 so I don't have an issue moving 31 for your potential starter in goal.

Besides, the 31 pick you won't see for a few years anyway and we have some great prospects in the system so I'm ok moving it for Lack.

ha ha Cab, ya know I'm old. Not so sure about wise.

It's gonna be a busy time for TM the next week and beyond. I'm with Homie. THe team will look a whole lot better come Sept 30th. I have high expectations that the Sabres will surprise a lot of teams next year and could possibly content for a playoff spot. The tank is parked and taken apart. Being replaced with new HP mobile units.

There have been a bunch of fence posts and boxes of rocks around this place that will make us look like MIT grads.

Hit the 50 this Jan. Don't mind it one bit.

Well said young wise one.

They will make some nice additions this summer and ya have to think with Eichel, Kane and Reinhart on the roster and maybe Frolik and a vet dman back there along with a solid goalie tandem that we will be a better hockey club next year.

My draft

2- Eichel
21- trade up and get Konecny
31- trade for Lack
51- Matthew Spencer D
- mhp

That'd be impressive, I figure to move up we'd have to add one of the two 2nds. Konecky is high on my list as well, him or Connor would be huge for us.

You're probably right. I still see Murray offer sheeting someone.

14 gets you Eichel, Frolik, 2 goalies and a vet dman and that should push you past the floor. Good times.

Thoughts on whether
PK or MHE are resigned ?
