I wouldn't do that.

WGR is talking about something like:
#13, Oloffson, Mitts, Joker

to SJ for #4 and Karlsson with us taking the Russian.

They're just making it up, no rumors

They also say there's a ton of interest in Oloffson
- turbo044

He has a good salary this year for 25 goals. A well coached ready now team could use him for a year

If the cost is 13 and 2024 1.

You still trading up to say #4

Without a second thought.

Protected? Possibly, with the current roster the Sabres are a few injuries away from drafting top 10 next season.

YES

Fitz confirmed that wood tatar and graves are going to test free agency


You can get some big wood out there

Yes...he has 2 2nd's or try to move back into 1st with those
Edit - however, done pretty good with 2nd lately...

Graves would be a great add, adding Wood affects Girgs vibe so can’t happen.

When the Sabres add a 22-year-old Matvei Michkov on a rookie contract in the middle of their cup window.

The guy they draft at 13 will play in the OHL for a year, then Rochester for a year, then have a low impact rookie season with the team by the time this russian shows up.

Sounds about the same to me.

Maybe, but those assets you gave up to move up to grab the Russian might cause me from getting a defenseman that could help me today. That's the point, have No problem going and getting him. But not at the cost of helping you today.

Reilly Smith for a 3rd

Saying Montreal has 5 offers for the 5th pick

Buffalo requires a Russian kid to get drafted for the city to care about downtown, Twitter is fantastic

Reilly Smith for a 3rd

Good move for the pens.


Vegas finally trying to become cap complaint.


Good job on both sides

Yes, as hopefully he 2024 #1 will be in the 20's. That won't get you to #4 though

It’s not the NFL. Not sure it costs that much

If 4d and goalie are our only two glaring needs, why would giving up a package for Mich be a big deal? We are going to have 4 former first rounders playing in Roch in the near future.

So trade next years 1st, that's even further away from helping.

Imagine in a few years when this team has lost in the second round and we all want something to get us over the hump, and this guy strolls in and puts up 40.

Isn't any team "a few injuries away" from being in trouble?

Good move for the pens.

That's a tough but necessary loss for Vegas. He is a good player.

Just so ya'll understand. I started this trade up for Michkov wagon.

Vegas got a cup. They are happy and fine with it

Absolutely, although I saw his underlying numbers aren't great so maybe it isn't a big subtraction for them. I saw speculation that they might be doing it in order to make room for Hanifan

Cause it's been a glaring need for 3 years and still not filled.
