I’m not a big UPL fan, but if their answer is Quick I’d rather them just run with UPL

They did the same thing the last few years. Who knows.

Maybe Anderson ends up in Florida and they want insurance?

I got nothing.

His "explanation" in June about acquiring Ben Bishop early so that Free Agents wouldn't take advantage of their need to get to the cap floor was comedic gold.

And then they gave Bryson and Hinostroza the deals they did. Astounding logic.

Hey there Homie.... Hell if the frigging Sabres had one guy who could play frigging defense they would be dangerous.....

They do, but he has been out of the lineup injured the past two games.

All the "let's give dahlin 7 million and make it 3/3 crowd"
Are gonna be disappointed.

Dahlin's agent is gonna show these past 2 games as example A and B.

Guys a 11+ million player

Only reason is so he is an option to call up even just as a backup if something were to happen(trade/injury). Have to be on a NHL contract before trade deadline day.

Seems like Cozens and Tage were smart enough to realize that squeezing every last drop gets you worse linemates. I think Rasmus is a smart cookie too.

Any GM asking for Ostlund, Savioe or Kulich can go pound sand.

Any other prospect not named Levi is up for discussion.

Get us a goalie and top 4 defender Adams.

I'm with you on keeping those three, sticking with the game plan, but you can't get a goalie and a top4 for Rosen...what you giving up? Prices seem to be pretty high

Good post., especially cozens.

Rasmus did take longer to sign though, and is clearly a top 2/3 player at his position in the league.

Irreplaceable.... = Big $

You got 1st in 23, 1st in 24, 3 2nds in 23.

Plenty of ammunition. No I am not saying to trade them all.

Offer 1st, 2 2nds and Rosen for Chychrun.

I think this is fair. Might cost you one more mid level prospect like a Nadeau??

You're discounting how good Chychrun is + he has term + he;s young and fits into our strategy + our defensive prospect pool is non existent

If that is what it takes then do it or try to give them another pick 3rd or 4th

Has anyone actually thought of what pieces they might want back for Chychrun. If they want a young plug and play D man or a D prospect they can sign. Maybe we don't have the exact pieces. There's a few trades that went down that Buffalo didn't have the right stuff or not willing to give up that stuff even if they wanted to go ahead with a trade.
