We do have some big bodies laying in wait... Anyone have any insight on Bailey, Baptiste, Carrier, or Samuels-Thomas?

Gibson could cost. Anyone think it might involve our '16 1st?

Impressive turnaround for the Sabres. Should be a decent team this year if everyone gels.

hope not. that would cost to much. Sign a FA goalie and call it a day with goalies. I'd like to see Tim add a top 4 D and i'd be happy with that

Possibly, if Foligno + can get you that 3/4 defenseman? Baptise has more offensive upside also, just still a year or two away.

When you guys start getting squeezed against the cap that 500 will go a long way. I use to have that same outlook but we are going to start feeling it real soon with the FA's and rfas we have to sign. Hard to keep all of these young kids.

We are getting Okposo next.

To be honest, I don't know why Buffalo traded that for ROR. That is a ton to give up for a guy who can walk after this year and a role player in McGinn. If he does walk, that is one of the worst deals in history. I wouldn't have touched ROR for that price tag going out ... no way.

We have a ton of resources to spend. We spent a ton for both ROR and Kane, but so what? There is still a lot in the cupboards. It is rare for star 24 year old forwards to be available so they cost a lot.

a little comparison

oilers- Hall, Eberle, Nugent-Hopkins, McDavid, Yakupov, Draisaitl


sabres- ROR, Kane, Eichel, Girgens, Reinhart, Ennis


if my goal was to score 4 goals a game, I'd take the oilers top 6 (meaning younger core)

if my goal was to win a playoff series, I'd take the sabres core

- homiedclown


I just can't see Edmonton keeping the top 6 like that, they get pushed around way to much and need help in other areas.

why? we already gave up a 1st for a unproven goalie? So lets do it again? 1st round picks shouldn't be used on unproven goalies.
