Montour is not a good defenseman.
- TheSabresTaco

3rd rounder was a respectable return all things considered

Talent is still there. And odds are like 50% plus of drafting a Pu with the mid 80s pick.

Sad part he looks nothing like he use to when you watch Dylan you think damn he's going to be good.. That's how Patrick was now An average 3rd to 4th line player

I truly hope the lightbulb turns back on but I think in his mind he scared to do things how used to do it

My feeling boston only has one true voice

Let's say he joined a sabres team in 2005 I don't see any way he could fail we had leadership Everywhere

debrusk is still under team control for another, what, 3 yrs?...and what did the sabres pay for hall?...nothing...

worth the risk

detroit is picking up 1/4 of savard's salary for a tampa 2021 4th round pick...

c-bus is retaining 1/2 of savard's salary for tbl 2021 1st and tbl 2022 3rd

tampa gets savard at 1/4 of his salary and d-man brian lashoff for less than a $3m total cap-hit

yzerman just helping breisbos. mind as well.
hopefully he can find a player or two with the draft picks hes acquiring this trade deadline.

Montour is not a good defenseman.
- TheSabresTaco

Montour will be good for Florida.

Kreuger set this team so far back its not even funny.

He ruined the value of every single player on this team.

He's the type of D-man you want, TBH. Breakout pass, tough, has speed.

And people will get upset that he makes 3.6 and will Become the new whipping boy with Vo

Because that's what everyone does

This is where I am at

He's had a very bad year, but he is still young only 24

Yes good O player
But his Defences is garbage

very creative trade

u know ur franchise is in the pooper when ur the middle man in a 3 way trade and just there to retain salary/get a token draft pick.

3rd rounder was a respectable return all things considered
- Michael Pachla

I believe so. I have no problem with it. Savard got a late first and a third for 75% salary retention and he's a quality defensive defenseman. Montour is a dime a dozen puck moving dman who can't play defense. The price is fair.

*shrugs*

if there's a better offer out there, go for it...but if it came down to that tomorrow, i'd take it...adams shouldn't be going into monday with hall still on the roster

He's been bad at defense for many years. His use is transitional movement. Not defense.

was brian lashoff any good?
- Michael Pachla

no, couldnt even crack this crappy red wings team, a AHLer who can come up and play in spots in the NHL. was the captain in Grand Rapids.

so they were able to dump him and retain $1m of savard's contract for a 4th rounder...not a bad deal for them

I remember the name
But haven't heard it in awhile

I get where your coming from but if the player is not good can't really Get mad with the 3rd pick You're never gonna get full value of a player when they don't live up to expectations

The flyers are most likely going to trade nolan patrick And his value is probably a 3rd round pick
- gerbe75pts

I'm not blaming Adams, I'm just saying when they turn a 1st round pick into a 3rd, that's a reason why the Sabres mired in sub-mediocrity.

The Sabres buy high, sell low as Kingcong says

Getting a 3rd for Montour at this point is fine with me

there are buffalo connections too: his father steve and uncle james both played for the Sabres with james being an assistant coach under lindy from '06-'13
