I would love to know what it's like to be a fan of a real team who prioritizes winning above all else like Vegas.

Wild what they're doing, and they still have the cap space to trade for Guentzel.

Rumors of a Hanifin extension as well.

(frank)ing sucks being a Sabres fan.

I'm sure Quinn/Reinhart Fan is screaming at the night sky somewhere about how badly Vegas is cheating...

Full trade:

To #VGK: Noah Hanifin (75% retained)
To #Flames: Cond. 2025 1st Rd Pick, Daniil Miromanov, Cond. 3rd Rd Pick
To #Flyers: 2024 5th Rd Pick

Condition: 2025 1st unless VGK trades it this deadline, then 2026.
Condition: 3rd upgrades to 2nd if VGK win one round in ‘24

Expect Miromanov to sign an extension.

↘️ Quoting Darren Dreger (@DarrenDreger)

Call underway. Vegas acquires Hanifin from Calgary for a 1st round pick,
Miromanov and a Conditional 3rd, upgrades to a 2nd if VGK win a playoff round. Double salary retention. Hearing Philadelphia is the broker.

“Chicken-man sucks because he’s injured too much, but I’m on board with Byram”

- the resident board jackass

That being said, I actually like the move. Now get a gritty, character forward for the top 6 and fix that fourth line and we might have something here.

Is that the aim of the team: Not that bad?

He's a nothing player at an inflated cap hit.

- kingcong39


After 8 years of LOG, going to get worked up over Clifton on their 3rd pair?

He was the best our GM could do. Better than EJ, Lyubushkin, or Bryson.

Yeah, with Lybuskin and Clifton. They are the same exact player. I don’t get it. Adams has some extremely well respected analytics guys and that’s what he comes with.

After the last couple year. The theory of needing veteran leadership of a player 33+ is dead to me.

It’s a lazy excuse in the media for an over the hill player to keep playing 1 or 2 more years

Why not? It’s not going to make us better any time soon. We can always top 10 protect it

I have liked him for a bit, wanted him included in the Eichel deal. I would be calling Vegas to see what there thinking. They got a lot of Dman even with moving Miromanov.

Defense locks appear to be Dahlin, Power, Byram and R. Johnson.

That leaves Samuelsson, Jokiharju, Clifton and Bryson as the question marks.

Should be fair game to consider moving any or all of the above, no?

I'm OK with, and would look forward to a makeover on the bottom pair.

Curious what people would do with the 4 I listed as question marks.

Alot of straight up touches bags, some others were pretty cool.
Beady is the GOAT
Cabin was/is awesome
The Krout a complete asswipe.
Then Patches revealed his true self, which was 180 degrees from who he portrayed himself to be online/ blogger - one hell of a blogger though, thoroughly enjoyed his blogs every day or so
Can't remember many others, maybe before my time.

I would have No problem moving Samuelsson, but would Vegas want another LD. I could be wrong but I believe Martinez is a FA at the end of the year. I have grown fond of Joker. Kinda on the fence about keeping him, the other 2 I would move for a Snickers Bar

If the Sabres somehow can convince this player to sign with them as a UFA, and effectively turn Mittelstadt into Byram and him, it will be a big win for the Sabres.

With Vegas getting Hanifin, call them and offer up Olofsson at 50% retention, Jokiharju, 2nd

Sabres defense is legitimately set for next year

Bryson I bet is back and the 7th d


This years chick man. P Ham said Byram hasn’t had a concussion in 2 years.

And Granato said Dahlin Byram d pairing next game.

- Sabretooth9


One of the reasons not to acquire Chiqorin was because in two years he’s going to need an expensive contract.

Is that not the same thing with Byram?
