Do you see the Sabres trading the pick at all for young NHL players who can help now and for the future?
- hello it's me 2050


Really need to know the direction they're heading with the coach and with Eichel. As of now, i'd say no. If they win the lottery and another GM is thirsty to move up, I think they need to at least consider moving down and picking up young talent in the process.

I doubt they'd do it though. Every team falls in love with a player

Not a chance when Eichel and others will be traded for what you suggested

You have convinced me about having Hughes ahead of Clarke. I debated that for a while.

My top 3 remains the same though.

it's somewhat strange in that i'm enamored with the dynamic play of eklund while you're interested in the two-way competitiveness of berniers...if someone red all of our posts throughout the years, they'd think the opposite

D-men are hard to judge but Hughes has the bloodlines, was one of the younger players in this years draft so has upside for growth, good year at the NTDP.

I like Clarke too though. He was great at the U18’s. Guess it comes down to team and system

Guenther underwhelmed a bit at the U18’s and I think it’s hurt his stock. However full sample size is very good.

I think Cozens and Guenther could be a really nice combo together though in terms of size, two way play, scoring ability.

I can see why the Sabres go Beniers because Center’s are the premium position and we have some question marks there if/when Eichel is gone.

Scouts think he wastes a lot of movement with his strides. He has a weird skating stride and that’s why a lot of scouts point too when talking about the player.

I think he moves well despite that, especially once NHL development coaches get their hands on him, and is that modern NHL d-man that can QB a Power Play, transition the pick up ice, and provide offence from the blue line.

Hypothetical
We acquire byfield
Cozens
Middelstat

Think a winger who can play both sides would be my choice
And yes a center can move to wing
