I'm good the the Monahan part.

You're scaring me 😂

If Cozens and 8 are going to the Flames then I am going to lose whatever faith I have left in this franchise

No talk of Cozens but there is with the 8th and not just with the Flames. Tampa is going to be tight with cash, the 8th and a Dman may go a long way, for example. We have players and a pick that other teams may want.

Agree with Flacco re: Cozens.

I'll live with 8 going the other way, but not Cozens.

Any other players mentioned? Heard what Tampa player(s)?

Appreciate your info.

Interesting.

I’m not a fan of giving up 8, however I don’t know whom is available

I only heard Cirelli but that was because Botterill wanted to try and deal for him. Who knows now.

Cue the Guy with seven letters wearing the sabres Jersey picture.

They need to make a couple moves, 2nd line center and IMO a 2nd line RW. It's time for Eichel and Dahlin's names are mentioned along with others as " playoff greats". This needs to happen and this coming season it needs to start.

Stamkos ??? that shipped sailed a few years ago. They were prepared to go to 11 mill a year for him. Guy can't stay healthy.

Wonder what it would take to scoop Anderson and Merzjikins from Columbus, pretty tight to the cap.

If they can pull that off they are at least a middle-of-the-pack team. I think people forget that there are pieces in the organization.

Yup

Sign Haula

Trade Montour for McCann

Sign Greiss

That’s a playoff roster.

Pass on both, how long is Anderson going to out? and Merzlkins can't handle being a number 1. Both goalies in Columbus can't handle being number ! IMO.

No thank you on McCann. He's incredibly mediocre.

I'd rather add a bit to try and get Copp from Winnipeg.

- SABRES 89

I know I sound like a broken record but it all depends on the contract for me.

Markstrom and Ullmark would be quite the duo though.

Bennett and Monahan?!?

Bennett and Monahan?!?

If 8 is going the other way Mangiapane better be coming too

Wanna really cramp your brain? Do the 9th pick.

Zegras, Kravtsov, Rasmussen, Sergavhev, Meier, Ehlers, Horvat, Trouba, Hamilton and Granlund since 2010.

The fact of the matter is that there are elite, All star level prospects available at 8 in every draft. It's also true that you can miss at every pick. Either it's a bit of a poop show or we should trade #8 for #9.

Edit: This was in response to the value of the pick/whether to trade and less about the amount of time to develop.
- RhinoFan

I have little faith in the Sabres making the right pick at #8, regardless of who is left on the board. They fired over half of their lousy scouting department and the survivors are equally lousy. Trade #8 for Monahan straight up. Keep Jack and me happy. I am tired of a decade of no playoff hockey or hope.

Bennett and Monahan?!?
- Gr8daygo

didn't hear Bennett but you never know I guess. You can say if the Flames move Monahan, Johnny Hockey and Giordano, that sounds like a small rebuild to me. I'd take Johnny Hockey over Hall all day long, how that makes them better is beyond me.

Can't say no to that deal.

Reinhart, 8th overall, Samuelsson for Monahan and Mangiapane?

Is that even remotely realistic?

I'm trying to think what Calgary would want from the Sabres.

I sound like a broken record but, they better do something fast you can not keep this up, or Eichel will be in the playoffs with another team next year.
