am still of the opinion that botts owes it to this group to make a move or two to help this team...am looking at a player like hagelin, whom botts is very familiar with and probably trusts, and would also set my sights on ryan dzingel from the sens - Michael Pachla
I like Hagelin, much better than the familiar and trusted Sheary.
21.43 % of Sabres Goals are from Skinner.
Ovie 20%
P. Kane is 18.22%
Draisaitl and "McJesus we lost out on that" make up 42%.
If no Skinner, this team would be a bottom 3 team again because no one else can score.
How much does Point benefit from playing with Kucherov and Stammer though ? If he comes here and is a 65 point guy and we are paying him to be a PPG player and then Mittelstadt is all of a sudden a 80 point guy in Tampa how are we better off ? - Pegullaville
He doesn’t play on their line
Can’t imagine it would be that much different if he’s on line2 behind Jack & Skinner
If you can get Artemi and Bob with them willing to resign, do you pull the trigger? - Acup2buff
breadman probably, bob, not...if the sabres re-sign skinner, panarin's probable hit will be, what, $9-10M and that means a ton of salary being spent on the wings...and why would you do that when wingers are so easy to find?

Right
I’m guessing around 10mi
I’d be ok giving him that
He’s 22, and it’s not a 1 year thing with him
Was good as a rookie
18g-22a-40pts in 68games (48pts pace)
Very good in year 2
32g-34a-66pts
And unfreaking real this year,
while not playing with Stamkos or Kucherov
And he gets a lot of tough defensive matchups too
Yeah... I’d be ok trading for & paying him
Or offersheeting him - jdfitz77
Again IMO he's a product of how Tampa is constructed.
Any team should be have some major concerns about giving him 8-10 mil per year. Especially Buffalo. Not the great track record when handing out salaries.

Hope Ullmark can grow & find consistency
If not, we have “6k” coming who can hopefully be a legit #1 guy
OR
Try to acquire a #1 ASAP- who though??? - jdfitz77
