Just peterka out of the 23 rostered players and prospects ?

Dahlin has to be untouchable imo

- Boss34


Honestly- If a team wanted Dahlin and the offer was beneficial to the Sabres- I would trade him. I think his contract makes him null and void because no team would give adequate value due to the term and amount per year plus the amount that a team would give to acquire him. Every other player is available in my book

I ask this only becuase we moved my Favorite D man .. Drysdale and a 2nd.. but would you guys have done Power or Dahlin for Cutter and do you think KA even inquired to Danny B about it ??
- dozerD10

No, Drysdale isn't in Dahlin's League. And with Power I think that pick comes to Buffalo.

Dahlin’s contract makes Skinners looks like a walk in the park, absolutely brutal.

Not even remotely close. 1 OA's who just signed long term extensions, they aren't being mentioned to begin with.

For fun, Gauthier + Michkov for Power might get some people to bite.

I don’t think Power would get you Gauthier straight up. Just my personal take.

Besides the actual trade on our end and hypothetical on yours..

My other more interested thing is .. do you guys think KA even inquired ?? Is he that kind of GM .. that when it was known at least in GM circles that Cutter wasn't interested in being a flyer ...

Highly doubt this, Cutter is a great prospect, but we shouldn't pretend it can't absolutely fall apart at the pro level. He doesn't have the games to warrant that much value, IMO.

Personally, I doubt he did. We'll never know, but if we traded a big name off the roster, for a prospect, at this point...we'd storm the castle.

He's not going anywhere, but he's worth 2-3x that.

There are zero untouchable players on this team. With the huge caveat that I do not trust KA to make these trades.

Okposo is on PP1 as well. They had 10 days to come up with a solution. This is their best effort.

In times like these, teams must turn to their leaders to forge a plan that will help them climb out of this hole they dug for themselves. Captain Kyle Okposo believes he has the answer to these issues, even if it will take a collective effort for this team to do two things: Spend less time talking, and more time doing.

I understand he’s not going anywhere. Because we signed him to a ridiculous contract that he will never live up to. But you feel he’s worth 2-3x the value of Gauthier… 13 years of failure will lead people to see things this way. Power is nothing more than a cupcake who will collect $8 million dollars per year going forward. Just lump him in with every other bad contract Adams has given 😂

This is Great!
Theyom seem to be on a roller coaster year by year for how much the are out of it.
This year was "average" ( did not do the mathu, just eye test).
We should expect to be out of a PO spot by say 3-6 pts next season!!

A 21 year old consensus #1 is worth a lot more than a prospect who was a consensus reach at #5. You just don't like him.
