Haha, my wife had Mark Mancari's mother as a client recently and when she said her son used to play for the Sabres, my wife told her, "my husband is a huge Sabres fan". All his mother said was "why?"

He was a ppg player last year

Great deal

Needed to get him locked up after signing Gaudreau

Texier, Foudy, Nyquist on the block

They are over, but they are also including 28 contracts. You could get below the cap just by cutting the roster down. Not saying they won't make a move, it just doesn't need to be big.

Shaving off 4 forwards and a defenseman gets them almost all the way to the cap limit. Looks like they're roughly a million or so over.

Curious if they'd be open to trading this guy.

Would think they just send him down. Job waiting for him next year. He's their UPL.

They knocked the draft out of the park, got Gaudreau, then went full galaxy mode

they have a decent young core of prospects

I will be very interested to see how they do in the next 3 years, vs us as they are clearly speeding up their rebuild

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

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
