I think it might take our other 1st, Ennis and a D man or 2. He makes a lot of money and only a few teams could take him. They need D.

Just Sid.

ziiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing

Hard to say but I think Toffoli is a better player.
- SABRES 89

I think Toffoli might have more skill, but Saad plays that full game.

Just Sid.

IMO the Pens don't move Crosby or Malkin, I just think that Ted Black will inquire about Malkin.

So if...........and I mean IF.......... we had a chance to get Malkin, you wouldn;t give up the other 1st round pick we have for him ???? but you will off sheet Saad ?

STOP SMOKING BAD S$$T JR
- SABRES 89

I'm saying it take our 2nd overall .. If all it took was then 2nd first etc sure but it won't

Because he provides the aforementioned leadership with cup experience role, has flourished when out of Crisby's shadow and eases the pain of missing out on McDavid, while softening the blow of Eichel potentially returning to school/helps lure Eichel here knowing he can learn from on of the last generation's great players and help ease him onto that 1C role as Malkin starts to decline but is still here as a legit star and a better 2C than anyone else we have on our roster or in our system. Also, our other Centers such as Reinhart, Girgensons could only benefit from his presence and experience.

he may not speak engrish but they can follow his on ice example.

Risky, imo.

But we all know Pegula.

Likes to make the "big splash".

I can't have a huge opinion on it until I see who we gave up.

I think Toffoli might have more skill, but Saad plays that full game.

I'm not a huge fan of the offer sheet thing.

Ask JR, if it was up to him we would offer sheet everyone. Saad is a product of how good the Hawks are and IMO, nothing more.
- SABRES 89

It would be our pick next year not this year

It would take more then our other 1st I agree but how many other teams can take on his contract and also really NEED him ?

- SABRES 89

Me either, I'm just talking hockey players. Not much else to discuss at this point. Saad just made a very good play in this game right now.

You mean 2nd overall pick, or 2nd Sabres pick?
- JCSabs06

2nd overall

IMO the Pens don't move Crosby or Malkin, I just think that Ted Black will inquire about Malkin.
- SABRES 89

They need to do something, and I wouldn't hate having Malkin on the Sabres. If it took Ennis, late 1st and 2 D prospects, I wouldn't lose any sleep.

I just hate Ennis's stupid face. They can have Gionta's goatee, too if they want.

- SABRES 89

Malkin on this team would be perfect. 1c so you have the luxury of sheltering eichel and Reinhart for a bit

It would be our pick next year not this year

I only know of 1 offer sheet the Sabres wanted to make and that was for Parise.

- SABRES 89

Yup.

When you start throwing offer sheets around, especially with players such as Saad, Toffoli and the like, it stands to reason that the $ will be over $2 million a year. Once it hits that mark, we start losing 1st round picks.

Would not shock me if he ends up with the sharks

Seen that

Would not shock me if he ends up with the sharks

That's just as bad as McDavid going to the Oilers

I only know of 1 offer sheet the Sabres wanted to make and that was for Parise.

That be what 6 years ago or something

I know everyone hated this term but, do you think Malkin is a " Murray type " player ?

2nd overall
- gerbe75pts

We could get him without trading that pick

That be what 6 years ago or something
- gerbe75pts

Yea, and, that goes to show you offer sheets are few and far between.

I would trade super Sam for malkin

I know everyone hated this term but, do you think Malkin is a " Murray type " player ?
- SABRES 89

Yes, actually.

We could get him without trading that pick
- beargk

Malkin ? you aren't getting Malkin without giving up our other 1st we have. The Pens don't have a 1st this year.
