If Bryson is almost a $2 million player what is Olofsson going to get?

Makes more sense if that's the TCV.

Get him a really good stay at home bruiser partner and I’ll be okay with it.

Yr 1 $1.8M
Yr 2 $1.9M

Don't understand why he's worth that, but I guess it doesn't really matter.

Surprising, but looks to be starter money, guess Pilut won't get that shot

I guess...also helps hit the cap floor


Cannot believe that is a thing, if they don't get a goalie I am going to be annoyed

Third pair is such an easy place to spend some $, improve the team, and shelter Dahlin + Power a bit. I really don't need to see more of him + Fitz. Hope that's not where this is going.

You can't shelter Dahlin and Power with Jacob who thinks he is Dahlin Bryson...

They just seem way too content with what they have, while everyone else is trying to improve. Definite Darcy quality.

Maybe they find a really good stay at home guy to play with Power instead of Joker...it's not that I want to see Joker with Bryson, but if Samuelsson/Dahlin and Power/? pairings can eat up 48 minutes a night then we are only seeing Bryson/Joker for 12 minutes a night...

Are we all being far too focused on stay at home defender when the better fit would be good skating, good passing, physical defender as the description?

Nope, because a really good stay at home defender is a good passing physical defender...

I don't understand all the sudden hate for Joker. He wasn't great last year, but he didn't all of the sudden turn into a terrible player.

Would be nice, but it feels like the best opportunity for that kind of trade was at the draft.

Good deal for Bryson and the Sabres

What happened to all those 1st round defenseman you predicted the Sabres to draft?

We have plenty of good young defenseman on the team now and for the foreseeable future....

I predicted 3 C+D with the first 4 picks. I hit that, just not the way I expected. Kulich was too good to pass on, so no complaints here.

D depth is an organizational weakness now. Not the end of the world, they can address it.
