I actually think if he makes it to FA I wouldn't mind the Sabres taking a run at Gavrikov.

Dudes,

@ Jets MNF week 1.
vs. Jags week 5 in London

Anymore leaks? Heard Allen hinting at possible home game on Thanksgiving? In serious conversations with Family about going to London. Cool stadium and spend a couple more days checking out some of the sites. Just a lot of money for flight and hotel. Figuring 4 tix to the game will be about a grand too.

Guys about to be 33 as well.

I'd be looking at other players if he wants more than 2 year.

Gudas projected next deal is either 4 years @ $3.5M per or 3 years @ $3M per.

First mock I've seen that has Benson falling all the way to the Sabres pick. That would be borderline shocking, and a huge get for the Sabres. Played on the Winnipeg Ice the past 2 seasons with Savoie.

Sabres should sprint to the stage to make their pick if Benson is somehow still available when they are on the clock.

A lot of fans would rather see Savoie moved for a RD and a legit Top 6 forward

Considering the fall of Savoie (size), being a winger and the lack of top end defensemen, I see this scenario as plausible.

If he's there, I have no doubt they'd take him. The skill is undeniable and they may have the most observable data on him, considering Savoie's presence.

He'd be a nice piece. I'm not sure he comes with the physical speed that the Sabres are creating with their core of players, but they also want sizable players as they have recognized a lack of them in the org and on the team. I'd have no problem if they picked him.

Matthew Wood has been in two different mock drafts as going to the Sabres at 13.

Absolutely should consider it. He has been working on his skating, which is a knock against him.
He would be fun to watch.

Big time.

We talked about him months ago here.

He was a scoring machine for the USNTDP this past season. He had 50+ goals and nearly 80 assists.

Buffalo Sabres -
Youngest, shortest roster...they plan to easily skate under opponents.

Samuel Honzek is intriguing with that size.

Haven't watched a minute but read he hasn't played very well for the Slovaks so far.

Yeah, he is in that 15-17 range. Personally if they go Forward I would take Wood. But Defense is my #1 priority.

F@cker is sure helping with the decision, unfortunately in the bad way. Now I need 3 D instead of 2
