Unless a really good prospect is going back I dont think they trade Meier without a first included..

If 1 were to happen would love to keep Olof and trade Mitts. Goals Goals Goals

I think that quinn can take over VO role and having meir doesnt make us have to have quinn step up that much right away

Gives Kulich another year if you want, Rosen more time to grow. And with the way that 3rd line has played makes for a very Dangerous Top 9.

Krebes bumps up a line and tbh all i need is 2 sound defensive wingers to go with jost.

JJ Krebs Savoie could be a interesting line in 2yrs.

I'm really interested in Krebs. What a turnaround he's made this season. Heart of a lion in there.

Would think people would have learned not to give up on players so quickly by now

A lot here(including me) expected more from the beginning of this season. Glad hes finding his groove. Looking like a solid player and the heart is incredible. Doesn't care about taking a punch to the face...

He looked quite promising at the end of last year. Bad the beginning of this year but tough environment when lines are being jumbled and you're on a rotation with rookies.

All i can say is people are missing out. The last two years I've never watched more hockey and never been happier with the on ice product.

I think it is a reflection on the change of networks and not the sport. Right now is good, but hockey in the 80s was bonkers :-)

Yeah, I am trying to keep it tempered. Adams is in a really good spot. His plan is falling into place, well think the Defense could be worked on. But the growth and development has been fantastic. This team could wait and will be a very good team just from internal growth the next couple years or he can go get Timo and move that timeline up if he chooses. He's in a Win Win situation as long as the plan stays on track.

Risky in net too. Makes Levi their most important prospect.

Slow and methodical front office is going to have to make timely decisions and smart trades.

Levi is a massive massive unknown right now. I wouldn’t bank on anything until he gets to Rochester

Goalies can be very hit or miss. Look at UPL. His final junior year had a good year and won gold at the world juniors

Then sucked for 3-4 years. Finally found his grove in the last month.

That was an awesome seemingly heartfelt statement from one the Sabres young leaders. Makes you want to really support these young men. Very inspiring to see such passion. God bless him.

Yup, with no one else in the system or coming soon, it's a risk. They don't draft many goalies and have had trouble signing them.

That said, Levi will be 22 next season. UPL is 23 today. His path looks different.

They still think Portillo is coming after his desks.

And we drafted a kid in the 2nd round this past draft

Also can sign goalies

We will be okay

Have to give up something of value to get something

That's biggest thing in the plan, will he make the decisions quickly enough to let the plan grow.

Kid they drafted is probably 4 years away. It's a big gap.

Not sure what you're hearing on Portillo. All the recent reports sound bad.

Krebs has grown

UPL has grown

Peterka/Quinn look fine

Big difference between them and

Mitts looks like Mitts

VO looks like VO

Bryson is complete garbage

I say Mitts and Bryson the odd men out. 30 goals is harder to come by than 45 points. VO can stay. For now.

But if we sent Mitts/VO and a pick/prospect for Meier or Chychrun then that’s the deal.
