The Sabres have 16 million this year

50. Five zero million next year

Yea. I think it’s gona be okay.
- ImThatGuy

30 by the time they re-sign kyle

In theory, they'll have both Dahlin and Power extended this offseason.

That would mean the 5 most important, true core players would be locked up long term.

It's go time.

Are players like Quinn, Peterka and Mittelstadt really core pieces that you cannot live without, that they would inhibit you from making other, potentially big moves?

You mean Quinner, The German terminator, Mittsy? Meatball will bring a table to Adams office and jump through it to keep them.

I would have legit shoved pencils in my ears had they re-signed Dustin Tokarski.

Thats with 7 forwards 1D 1G
- DirtyDan

OK so say 18 mill for Dahlin and Power- 32mill left
Savoie, Kulich and Johnson ELC'S kick in- 29.5 Mill left
Mitts gets 5yr 5mill ext- 24mill
Gavrikov 5mill- 19mill
Rousek- 18mill
Think the Sabres should be good, just depends how far they want to push it and what they want to add.

Add in two ELC forwards

Stillman and Bryson if you want them both back are not getting big pay raises if at all. I could see both signing a multi year deal for less.

So now it’s 9 F
3 D
1 G

With about 46 mil left

Power + Dahlin
16-18 mil

Now 9F
5D
1G

With about 28-30 mil left

Mitts 5 mil
Couple cup chasing vets for 1-2 mil

now it’s
19-23 mil left
12F
5D
1G

What about 2025-2030 ?

There will be a salary cap then too.

I'll take Stillman as a 7th. Bryson can kick rocks yesterday. If Brysn and Stills are 2 of your 7, No bueno

The nice part of JJ and Quinn’s ELCs is that they both started this year. So 2 more years of the ELC years.

Which is nice.

- Swedish_Jesus

Well luckily the cap should keep rising and be at about 95 million if reports are true in 2-3 years.

Are you this risk-adverse with everything?

Those are fair projections.

Sure and then Skinner will be coming off in those years, Tuch will be a FA. A lot of 1st contracts during that time to.

Yeah as long as Adams doesn't lose his mind, they should be able to handle the cap

Have to figure saving 9M for Skinner, Olo's 5 and Greenway's 3...we'll be okay even then, no?

This is probably more my style.

Wouldn’t surprise me to see Dahlin, Power, Quinn, and Peterka come in at $35M combined.

Yes, I’m that bullish on the potential of Quinn and Peterka.

When do you expect JJ and Quinn to be making this 15 to 17mill combined. Can't even talk contract with them for another year and a half.
