Jesus Christ just stop, enough.

Maybe, but I think botts wanted the cap freedom to field a good team next year.

T pegs would buy a championship if he could
In my opinion

They won't be getting any cap freedom from this till 2021 and complete cap freedom till 2023

WE DID BUT WE ARE MAKING HIM A CENTER!

Wait until he moves out a player and a pick we got for a winger,
- SABRES 89

Please be Anthony Mantha

Edit: fuhgedaboutit. Too many sanctions

WE DID BUT WE ARE MAKING HIM A CENTER!

I deserve that one

Ok I I read that quote completely wrong

I thought he was suggesting him as a center but it sounds like he was trying to say growing with the young center

Thank you, just breath. Picks can be moved with other players. It was a good haul for one guy. Settle down and wait until September to female dog about the roster.

They want to move him ?

Only 14 posters on here were telling you that, but once again, you only see what you want.

Botts quote in the 4th paragraph sums it up best. Basically, with ROR, they came 31st and they had to change that dynamic. He is delivering on what he said they would do.

Also, i don't know what kind of kale Gerbe is smoking because Botts said "We're looking for more scoring from our wings," Botterill said. "What we ssee with Tage is a kid with a great shot, great size, has a really good reach on the ice, played NHL games as a 20-year-old, had an opportunity to win a World Junior gold medal (with Team USA in 2017). We think he's a player that's going to be able to step in our lineup and grow with our young centermen."

Nothing about Thompson playing center.

Nyquist for a first.

- SABRES 89

No. Not at all. Would cost a lot.

Nyquist for a first.

Who do you think we are? Vegas?

Young winger for jack that should be the goal

So those two can dominate for 10 years instead of three and then we have to search again and waste more years of Jack

In my defense I didn't see those because I was trying to read the quotes and then I realized I was wrong

Tatar got a first, second and third. Nyquist should net SJS first next year.

No. Not at all. Would cost a lot.

I'd take AA if they move him

Kris Baker on Tage Thompson:

Big and skilled, historically strong on PP. Excellent shot. I see him playing RW with the Sabres org.


Botts we're going to use him as a center


Ok then
- gerbe75pts

Dude, holy poop.

NO ONE HAS SAID THAT. NOT ONE PERSON. FFS.

We can't wait for you to not shut up
- SABRES 89

Agreed

It's not that easy, how many teams are perfect. But as far as I'm concerned jack should be able to play with any wingers if he's so special. Crosby, Tavares have done it with scrubs. He shouldn't need an elite winger to make it.

I'd take AA if they move him

I hope we do. What would you offer if we resign him at 2.5x2?
