3 year 9 mil total in a bridge deal?
- homiedclown

That would be great work by JB. Feels too team friendly though. 2x4 maybe? Like I said, we'll learn a lot more about JB this Summer.

Sure, he's a perfect fit.
Young guy thats learning, jbotts gets a chance to fully evaluate him.

Keeps guhle in Rochester developing

Isn't really helping sabres win. Which is good for draft position.

Your thoughts?

- Boss34

he has not hurt the tank


as long as they keep losing and the guys lie nelson are holding their own, leave them up

3 for 10 would work.
Would it keep him as a rfa 3 years vs. 2 year deal?

Sam and jack have chemistry.

Some good back reading in this and the last blog.

I find it very 8nteresting that there are different camps on SoS, no not poop on a shingle..State of the Sabres.
- They are close, those who believe 2 - 3 players will change the team significantly
- Burn it to the ground, those who believe nearly everyone no name Jack Eichel should go
- They aren’t close, those who believe they do have several pieces for the future but need a serious infusion of talent up and down the lineup.

Through back reading, I find An odd collection of observations...
From the They are close camp I read about:
- 14 named players who should be gone. Perplexing.
- The need for 3 top end talents, #1D, 2 top six scorers. One wonders about the Goalies, the bottom six and who the other top 6 player is assuming Jack, Eichel and Okposo are 3 of Top six
- insist that the top 6 isn’t the problem, but the bottom six need to be significantly improved
-Think it is great that 50 games in, a #2 overall has played good for the last 10 games.
-support a one-dimensional play of their assumed future captain and therefore leader of the team.
-sight losing by one as some sort of moral victory, when the team is the lowest scoring team in the league at just over 2 per game....a two goal improvement to win is the same as doubling their average production.
- indicate they expect 1 maybe 2 trades...meaning no other team wants our obviously talented players

But hey, I must be the crazy one.

Well agents will always swing for the fence...
but it doesn’t seem realistic

When u look at what their final numbers are gonna be...
they’ll have to take a 1 or 2 year deal at less $$$ bc there’s NO WAY that Botts will give them big $$$ over a long term

Not a chance imo

- jdfitz77

Arvidsson and Nylander comparables are not swinging for the fence. Johansen is.

I'm not advocating for a long term deal, just challenging people to take his agents side on this. If this ends with a 2 year @ 3.5 per deal, it's great work by JB.

- homiedclown


I’m think 1 or 2yrs tops,
since Botts likely won’t give him the $$$ he wants

I was thinking 3-3.5per

That's more because of financials of the Lightning. If they had the money he would've gotten paid, but they needed a lot of money when they signed mr six letters, so he got most of what was leftover.

has nelson earned a spot with the big club for the rest of the season?
- homiedclown


Whether he has or not,
I think they care more about Rochester winning THIS YEAR than they do about Buffalo

So he’s gonna go back at some point

I don't see how he doesn't get paid. He was a good soldier, didn't hold their feet to the fire like he easily could've.

They'll make it up to him either in years, or bonuses like ROR's deal.
