LOG = 7m
Johnson + Lyubushkin = 6m
13m on a 4th line + bottom pair.
Anyone think they could get better value out of 13m on this market? - Lunaion
This wont be the bottom pair. |

What happens if these plans fall through again?

Tage/Tuch/Skinner
Cozens/Peterka/Olofsson
Krebs/Mitts/Greenway
Jost/Okposo/Girgensons
Man, couple things that really hurt, Quinn and Greenway. Like slotting in Quinn on the 2nd line gives you good middle six flexibility. I’m not seeing it, but if Greenway can transform into a good player would help things out too. I hated watching him play last year. Oafy, but he was scoring goals some how. Almost have to keep Olofsson now. Top line and 4th line are as good as any in the league.
Overall I’m good with the lineup, but will be pissed if it turns out Gerbe is full of poop.

Yep and if you read his Twitter, 5 other teams were in on him. So those GMs are stupid also. - turbo044
Yeah, probably, have you seen the contracts Uncle Lou has handed out? He just gave out 3 7+ year contracts in a year where everyone is getting 1-3 years.

This is already a weird year, from really no huge trades and players taking less term and money for most part because of the Cap situation. A lot of what is happening know could be the end for some teams. A lot of teams can't take money back in trades or contracts for some. Hope Adams has something more up his sleeve but as the days go along more and more teams dwindle from your list. |

Drive your car by looking through the windshield...not through the review mirror still attached to the cars, 2, 3, 4 before your current model.
Clear? - IonSabres
Have to pay attention to what's behind you when you're driving a Pinto.
For the young ones the Ford Pinto had a teensy tendency to be engulfed in flames at the slightest rear-end collision. |

You're just trying to take the fun out of it. If they pay one of them to be 7D, they are still paying him.

Fair i like Tarasenko better cuz he’s a pure RW where Tatar is more LW. Would take either but doubt we get either |

Who’s your second line RW then? Greenway of one of the young guns? |

I remember when the Lions passed on Aaron Donald because they had Suh and Nick Fairley to take Eric Ebron.
Good times.
For so many years we didn’t have enough forwards and now we’re complaining about trying to hit home runs on potential game changing forwards ? - Swedish_Jesus
Not the same no matter how much you want to be that guy |

Middle 6 will change, but try Kulich first. Splitting Cozens and Mitts gives you the best shot at having both lines work. If it's not working, put them together and barely play the 3rd line again.

The Sabres were in a much much different place.
And the NFL you can rebuild at a much faster pace.
Sabres prospects take 2-3 years to see how your drafting and even another team (Rochester)
Allen got drafted …. And played within 6 months
Way more goes into it ….. then the NFL - Sabretooth9
What are you smoking? Chicago went from 1OA to a Cup in 3 years, Pittsburgh went from 1OA to a Cup in 4 years, LA went from 68 points to a Cup in 5 years. Vegas missed the playoffs last year and won the Cup this year.
We are coming up on the 10th year of the Sabres having the worst record in the sport and STILL haven't even made the playoffs yet while picking 2OA twice and 1OA twice. What in the ever loving fück are we waiting for?

Could think of a couple 1yr signings that could have helped.
Skinner Tage Tuch
Bertuzzi Cozens JJ
Kulich Mitts Greenway
Girgensons Krebs Rousek/Okposo or

Can never have enough talented forwards.
Think of how many Eichel templates can be converted to Benson’s when he’s getting 50 assists a year in Tage’s wing.

That's why I posed the question of using 13m differently. Most teams don't prioritize the bottom of their roster like that.

I don't know how much of his past few years is just him aging or just him playing for very bad teams.
Probably both.
3 years ago, sign me up.

It’s July 2nd 2023.
You’re actually talking about something that’s not happening until what 2025 at the earliest?
