if we had traded for Oliver Bjorkstrand for pennies on the dollar

literally could have had our rw positions filled for the next 4 years with good players with him, tuch and quinn

He didn't want to be here.

Doesn’t fit our timeline

Or we were on his 10 team no trade list

Which is probably true.

Can't block the 2026 picks

Will Butcher has signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Dallas Stars.
Butcher had two goals and eight points in 37 contests last season. If he plays in the NHL, he'll come with a $750,000 cap hit.

I can’t wait until all those lists change after another bottom 10 playoff less season.

Really weaponizing this cap space we got

And he was ok going to Seattle.

Are they going to be good anytime soon?

The trade to Seattle tells me not to expect much in trade value for Olo unless he burns down the house.

Seattle may or may not be good soon but, the Sabres have been bad for way to long and players see it.

Going to be a couple years.

Really solid two way forward. We have 3 2nd rounders next year

I look forward to reading how there was no room for him on this juggernaut from the usuals

I would have made that trade. 25-30 G / 50 Pt pace for past several seasons, all at $5.4m cost controlled for next 4 seasons. Would have been a Solid acquisition.

Olo, Tuch, Bjorkie, Quinner, Okposo on the right.
How would you guys deploy them? Who goes where?

Wingers are available every season if we need one. Seems like we will be pretty deep there for foreseeable future anyway

Oh My God!! Really players see this 11yr sh!t show, can't be true "Hockey Heaven"🥳🥳

Well they were gifted Wright to go with Beniers.

Burakovsky and Bjorkstrand are two nice additions to their top 6.

Western Conference is a toss up but I still don’t think they have enough to get out of the bottom 10 this year.

Cap space is always an asset.

Bjorkstrand only going for a 3rd and a 4th is indicative of that.

That will change soon

Agreed. Everyone knows what’s coming.

You'd think that, but if you don't want to spend to the floor, it's a liability.

What era was the best for the Bills and Sabres to be good at the same time? Definitely the 90’s, but were the Super Bowl Bills/playoff Sabres teams better than the Stanley Cup Sabres/Playoff Bills teams? I’m going with the Super Bowl years. Could we be on the verge of the greatest era in history of Buffalo sports teams? Bout to be friggin Boston up there.

Judge is gonna get paid, Cashman might have screwed the pooch on that one.
