skunk needs to get his ass going...he's not been very good the last two games

That happens when your center plays on the 5th line.

Draisaitl
- TheSabresTaco

Does he help this team more then Dahlin

maybe...however, what do you have at No. 2 right wing?...and, he's played better than skunk has the last two games...and, the mojo line needs more skill...and, you could put Andrew peters on the Eichel line and it wouldn't hurt, that's how great the captain is playing
- Michael Pachla

Is it really ok to say okposo played better than Sam?

I thought this was off limits?

Very true though

- Buff36

Overall think it's a wash. Give Dahlin the edge here. Stanley cup teams have Norris caliber dmen usually

Trades take 15 months, everyone calm down.
- SABRES 89

I really do wonder how in the world guhle and 1st for montour took that long.

Dude looks like he's on the verge of tears. He's not the problem.

sam has fallen into the "suck sisters" approach of ice-floating the last two games...Okposo has been playing with a ton of conviction

Maybe we could strap a Oxygen machine to Eichel's back so he could play Center for 3 lines

- Sabretooth9

Botterill was handed the hardest thing in hockey to acquire - an elite, top-10 center

All he has to do is build a competent 2nd line and he has failed miserably for 2.5 years

It's absolutely brutal

Sucks too, the last 5 had been very solid.

he would do it

he would do it
- Michael Pachla

I wouldn't doubt it.

I'd deal 21/23 players on this team if the value was right. Also, 42/44 total contracts owned by the Sabres, I would deal if the value was right.
- TheSabresTaco

Sounds about right

he got walloped, I believe in the st. louis game, and looks really afraid to get hit

Would you trade Cozens, a 2020 or 2021 1st round pick, plus more for Sean Monahan, or Scheifele, or Kuznetsov (from the Capitals), or Couturier?

Would you trade Cozens foe Cirelli, or Trochek?
- kingcong39

Trading for Scheifele is a different ball park than Cirelli. However I think I having a better chance of seeing a pig fly than the Jets dealing him right now.

Florida says yes to Mittelstadt and the 2020 1st round pick: do you do it?
- kingcong39

No, even if it is lotto protected. This draft is reminiscent of 2015. Talent runs about 20 picks deep.

He got walloped last night to

- Michael Pachla

I didn't see the islander game

he looked fine last night

couple of nice shots
parked his ass in front of the goalie on the pp

he has 8 points in 7 games and honestly our only legit top 6 RW


eichel, reinhart, skinner and olofsson

they are really the only dependable players in our top 9 and none of them are the issues short term

since when does Eichel play on the fifth line?
- Michael Pachla

So much Skinner talk thought you meant him.
