Problem is that the last thing we need is a center

I do agree but some what but his size and skill is way too hard to pass up in my opinion

It's funny we have to many centers lol

He's a center, like 6'6". Apparently he's pretty good. In the third tier, after 8.

Jr. You take a lot of heat on here, some teasing, some lambasting...but that move to surprise your Mom today tells me you got the right stuff! Family matters, good for you!

I think GMTM moves up to grab Tkachuk! 15 playoff games 15 or 16 goals and that in assists...he is a producer!
The go to FA and grab a seasoned D for 2-3 years to fill that void.

Don't be shocked if the pick is moved.
- SABRES 89

My thought exactly... GMTM wants to win NOW, if we can't draft a top tier NHL ready player at #8, we package the pick with a roster player/players and or prospects to land a big fish LH dman or winger to skate with Jack

Yeah thinking a kid that size would work out better as a winger. Not hard to switch from center to wing (ask Reinhart), much harder winger to center (ask leino)

Shattenkirk and their pick for #8 and a package perhaps?

Or the same thing could be done with Anahiem.

Lindholm and their pick (I think they have one) for #8 and a package?

I get the feeling its gonna sting to get the guy we want. I know anaheim fans wanted 8 or reinhart for fowler. Not sure what the market actually is of course, just saying lindholm might be unreasonable.

If we were to miss out on Stamkos

8th, Larsson, a 2nd, and Baptiste for Taylor Hall

EDIT: if necessary switch out Baptiste with Pysyk

Really....even if we ADDED Pysyk to that offer?

EDIT: have you heard anything about a backup plan should we miss out on Stamkos?...or is that what Hall is?

I mentioned Hall before but if the Oilers move him, they want a top 1 or 2 D man. We aren't moving Risto. TSN and Spector has said a few times if Hall goes it will be for a top D guy. My guess is RNH goes before Hall or Eberle.

For hall i cant imagine any offer not including ristolainen. Not saying its even worth discussing, just looking at edmontons roster, they are gonna want a stud rhd coming back.

Not only does Tampa have to figure out how to pay Stamkos and Hedman, they have some other quality players to pay as well. Can't keep everyone.
- SABRES 89


I think it's becoming more clear with every playoff victory, Tampa is NOT going to resign Stamkos.

Hard to say but it won't be easy, will be for the Sabres.

I don't think Tampa even tries to sign him at this point and it would not surprise me to learn they've pulled their offer.

My 2 cents - I think/hope Pegula/Murray are p___d off about losing Babcock to the Leafs and they won't allow this to happen with Stamkos. Based on your insight, it seems like the Pegula Brinks truck will be in place by July 1 for Mr Stamkos. This is good. However, if he does choose the Leafs over the Sabres, I guess it will be because he is from Markham or he liked playing for Babcock during the Olympics.

I don't think he will go to the Leafs but that's me, means a lot for some Canadians to play for the Leafs, it meant a lot for Babcock to coach there. Tampa looks to be in a tight situation coming up, Hedman will command at least 8 mill or so I would think. The disrespect thing is a big deal with Stamkos.

As much as I like Eberle or Schwartz, I don't want to move a big package for them.

I'M you target a D, if you can't land one, draft a winger and trade for Nash while they develop. Nash won't cost the 8th pick. We are one of a few teams who can take on his salary for 2 years

Hedman +Kucherov + Bishop + Johnson
