I'm good with the Benson pick. Arguably BPA. Glad he didn't reach like a number of teams ahead of them.

Whether the adams simps like it or not this team is a top 4 dman, goalie(maybe levi) and upgraded bottom 6 away from making deep runs in the playoffs.

Still time but now that 13oa is off the board it seems less likely they make a move for a proven dman. Hope im wrong

So why didn’t he go top 5 then?

Not a strong skater. But he is a stud playmaker.

Safe pick would have been wood, this is a high risk high reward pick

Why is it that the only thing they can (could've) traded for a D man was 13OA?

Lots of players get traded for several different things and for several different reasons.

If someone falls to the end of the 1st look for kA to trade 39 and their 3rd to move up. The draft is deep though so they may not need to do so

Its not the only thing. I'm not done expecting them to do something but its a price most if not all of us would have been happy to pay

Well Adams got a Good Prospect, added a nice piece to the pool. Still the same work needs to be done, nothing has changed at this point. Still a important few days ahead.

Exactly and A LOT of interest in Oloffson. You Cohen see Oloffson traded for Tanev or even Oloffson a 20123 2nd and a 2024 2nd for Hannifan

The Sabres offense as it’s designed now comes from their blue line as far as playmaking goes.

But no the skating doesn’t help sell it at all lol.
- Stripes77



yeah cause almost none of their forwards can. I just assume they think they can polish the skating. But all the (limited) tracking data loves him too.

If the Sabres physically survive the beating they team will take; it sure as hell would be an entertaining team. Lots of 6 - 5 games. I personally love it but they better hire some extra chiropractors and physios.

I never, ever expected them to trade their first pick. I do think one of their seconds is in play.

Yep absolutely correct and I think he knows he needs a top 4 d. Goalie and forward are the big ??

Lol you don't trade your top 15 first round picks in hockey for spare parts. There is only one proven way to get great players in this sport, and that is to draft them top 10. At 13 the Sabres just got a guy widely regarded as top 10.

They can get a third line winger for a mid round pick. They can get a #4 D from trading mid level prospects and picks.

By January this kid is going to probably be in our top three prospects. You don't dump him for some limited #4 D.
