I'd be Ok if the Sabres did any of the following:
- trade out of 2 but stay in top 4 (getting one of the 3 Fwds)
- pick Sam Bennett at 2
- pick Sam Reinhart at 2
and
Trade Myers for a top 15 pick, plus an A Prospect.
Just a couple of targets...
- Tuch
- Virtanen
and move up again to grab a guy like Ho-Sang
- IonSabres

please post more often

To me there is not a sabre I would not trade that's with the big club now. There is a serious lack of talent here

Haven't even drafted him, and I was saying I think he gets dealt, on average not so overloaded.

1. Murray has said that he would "take Ekblad if he was the BPA".

2. Murray has said that he believes Ekblad will go first overall (meaning he believes Ekblad is the top player in the draft).

3. Vancouver reportedly has a deal in place to move up to #1, to draft local boy Sam Reinhart.




IMO, all signs are pointing to Ekblad wearing the blue & gold by nights end.

I believe if hoff or myers is traded, it will be after someone not named ekblad is picked first overall

Problem with that theory is that the two most talented (Myers, Ennis) everyone wants to trade

1. Murray has said that he would "take Ekblad if he was the BPA".

2. Murray has said that he believes Ekblad will go first overall (meaning he believes Ekblad is the top player in the draft).

3. Vancouver reportedly has a deal in place to move up to #1, to draft local boy Sam Reinhart.

I've been on the Ekblad bandwagon for a while now so by all means let him do that, I just don't want to assume anything right away. Nothing has been made official it's all speculation at this point.

My original point was that we won't really be overloaded on RHD, particularly so if they choose to play some of them on the left side. Otherwise You could trade one of them in 2015 like I had thought with Myers.

I really would be happy to see our top 9 to start next year look like..

Hodge - Ennis - Staff
Moulson - Reinhart -Stewart
Girgensons - Mitchell - Larsson/Foligno/Conachar


I'm really not sure on who plays what wing but am pretty sure that Hodge, Staff, Moulson, and Stewart all prefer RW.

oh my

I have been a buffalo fan since the age of 6 in 1977

potential does not mean poop to me at the age of 43


my quote was simple

"often injured

very inconsistent

he got paid and rewarded the team by being out of shape


he is of the age where he should bring it every night and if a nice return can be had, it is not a bad thing to move him


Murray was not the gm that fell in love with myers and I am sure had an opinion of him before he took over as gm, let alone since"



feel free to inform me of my mistakes in this quote
- homiedclown

I have been a Sabres fan since 71, and even older than you. I am willing to show patience and have things done right here for once. Sorry you are impatient and do not want the long term success of the franchise . Rather a rush to 9th and 10 more years of mediocrity . How do you know how Murray feels about Myers . Everything I have heard from has been positive. You don't haver to draft a player to like him . I am sure there lots of players out there that Murray covets that he did not draft .
I would rather have a meal that is cooked right rather than one you throw in the microwave for instant gratification . But that is just me.

For once things are being thought out and done right here . And the long suffering fans do not want to wait for the long term success it could bring.

oh my

Otters, now wife, I remember that, it was very entertaining, its when my distaste for Harrington really started to climb even more

Sorry your too emotional about this one , You just want to hate and don't see the potential others do . You don't accept how this kid is back on track under Nolan . He got a big contract at 21 and came in out of shape once . Were you making great decisions at 21 ? He realizes the mistake he made and admitted it. But some Buffalo fans dwell on the past and refuse to see what can be in the future . Keep on Hating buddy . You do it well . Funny thing is up till now I thought you were rational most of the time . You are way off on this one.
- Maximum Signal

If anyone is emotional, it's you. You ran off on a tangent because someone said they don't mind if myers is moved, and then listed why they don't mind.

And then you take the post personal telling him, he doesn't know what he talking about. Lighten up, people are allowed to have differing opinions.

There was always a chance we weren't going to get him

Also this

@MichaelTraikos
I keep hearing that Draisaitl is the top choice for a lot of teams. I wonder if he supplants Ekblad, Bennett, Reinhart and goes No. 1.
