Well I guess you missed my other post, where I said I would not use the 2023 1st. We have other picks and prospects that could be used. I would use the 2024 1st Savoie and a + if that's what it took. And then draft Simashev at 13
- Buff36

ah yes. i'd still do 25 1st. but alas, as 89 says..

If Krebs replaced Girgensons long term I wouldn’t be mad. He actually has offensive upside. He could be a Jochen Hecht type of guy for us and I want to see him develop.

Between him and Mitts, I keep him (Krebs). Mitts might have more value in a trade anyway.

This is where I'm at as well. And Krebs is better suited to play in the bottom-six whereas Mittelstadt really needs to be in a scoring role to be successful

Florida literally claimed Forsling and Mahura off waivers, signed Radko Gudas in free agency, and have the ghost of Marc Staal in their top 4.

Yet the Sabres got to trade blue chip prospects or 13 to get a top 4 d-man?

Especially since two of those said d-men are #1 overall picks that are going to be elite at their positions ?

Common now

Well the Sabres really don't have a lot of room for some of those Blue Chip Prospects. Might as well use them on another Blue Chip Prospect that could fill a definite area of Need.

Don't be surprised to hear about 1yr contract Extension for Hyde and Jones.

Yep, might as well keep the tandem together and it allows them to play with the money. Did you happen to see the Pat McAfee Podcast with Beaner.

I did not. Worth a listen?

John Gibson sounds to have asked to be traded

Looks like Girgensons wants to test the UFA market before deciding if he wants to return to Buffalo. Might be more about place than money. ##letsgobuffalo

We were on his no trade last year

Just he was asked about the Floyd signing and if that shut the door on a Hopkins signing. And he definitely didn't shut the door with his comments.

Wonder if he has a change of heart. Gotta see the difference here now.

They would if they stopped signing guys like Girglesons and Old Man River

Maybe but I wouldnt spend any time trying to convince him. He's like the goalie Regehr. Dont need my owner going out to wine and dine a guy with a sub 900 save percentage.

They are not paying a goalie 6 mill a year.

Ivan Barbashev would be a nice add for us.
