Our best young player to build around? Wtf was darcy doing for 3 years, we see how that worked out. We're clearly not watching the same games here. He had one good season, the Calder. Downhill every year since. Stock has value. Give to get.

Tyler Myers best statistical season he had 48 points
Evander Kane's best statistical season he had 57 points

hmm Myers plays D and Kane only had 9 more points in his best season?

- Stripes77


yes, in 8 less games for the powerhouse Atlanta Thrashers. We have people crying for offesnse and somehow a young, 4th overall pick, 60+ point center is something we don't need? But we don't want to give anything of value up to get him. Get real. Fantasy world where everyone will now trade the Sabres good players for Matt Ellis and a 2nd.

Myers is who you keep unless some team overpays for him and blows you away with an offer. He had a better season this year and should be in his prime when the Sabres start to contend for a playoff berth.

Never has gotten to the 60 point plateau and doesn't play center. You lost your leg to stand on right there

Drafting Ekblad pretty much says that it would be a longer rebuild. They pretty much have Ekblad in Risto why not get a top 6 forward this year and 2 next year?
- Stripes77

Ekblad is a huge hitter!! Also think ekblad has a way better shot then risto, at this point I only think risto is a better skater ...

Most inaccurate annoying sentence constantly spewed on here.


No offense

- sbroads24


So next year, what excuse will everyone use when he underperforms? He's had built-in excuses every year. Let's blame the coach. Maybe we can blame Darcy. Terry? His D-partner? Sabretooth?

Risto is a huge hitter as well. People under estimate him in that department. He is just very smart about it. He doesn't take himself out of position to lay a big hit but when he throws it he does it with force.

You need to get over that Tire Fire known as Evander Kane ! You want to help him ? Contribute to his legal fund ! But do not call for him to be traded here !

He's not a center and has never scored 60 points.

Ekblad is a better prospect than Risto, even though Risto is going to be a really good player.

Your statement was innacurate. You said he's had 1 good season.

His second year he played 80 games, scored 10 goals, 37 points and was a + player. Is that not a good season? Not to mention he was great against Philly in the playoffs.

As Nolan and Murray stated today, young players need support, Myers from the age of 20 was excpected to be a franchise defensemen and was given little support. He's becoming a great player

57 in 74, i did make the statistical assumption he would have had 60+ in 82 games, like Myers's point total listed was for 82 games. Apples to apples. You have me on left vs center, I'll keep my right leg, you can have the right foot.

I would not mind Ekblad at all, He is the type of dmen many teams will be drooling over if you put this years draft with next years Ekblad Would still be the first dmen off the bored, That being said if Buffalo does get the 2 overall pick I see Buffalo moving Ekblad plus in a block buster deal

Boy you are an idiot. He doesn't play center and hasn't scored 60 points. Shows how much you know. (hnt:nothing!)
