Because the top 2 D men don’t have to be opposite hand.

do you really think guhle will be ready for top-pairing minutes this season?

Franson flat out refused to play his off side though. It differs person to person

When you're bookmarked for the hall of fame, coaches let you play whatever side you want

yes

in rochester

Panarin is probably a $10 million a year guy
- mattmoulson

Probably but he is going to be 27 this year

His production would dip

I'll give him his $10 million

True, but right shots are rarely asked to play left. Left shots have almost always played right at some point.

due to lack of quality rhd-men

dahlin/risto would easily be the best d pair we have ever had as sabres fans



keep that in your back pocket when making these trades

yes

in rochester

my thoughts too

he would be 36 in year 8 of the deal


just to keep things in perspective

Disagree

JT would love Nashville...

Is there any chance at all we could land panarin?

And how strapped would we be cap wise if that happened

Disagree
- gerbe75pts

we had some solid pairs in the 70's and early 80's


if dahlin is half of what he is suppose to be, by year 2 that will be the best pair ever on the ice for the sabres



listen to your elders

That's true

front load it in bonuses and then trade him towards the end to Quebec since they'll need to get to the cap floor.

Serious question what could Buffalo offer to get him?

you really don't believe they need goalie help? Lehner and Ullmark are going to bring this team out of bottom 5 in the league?

The Pens not the Sabres

I'm a right-handed defenseman, and prefer to play the left side.

The conversation on having a left/right handed D or lack of always amuses me.
- 51_Killer

And I shoot left and prefer the right, but neither of us are in the NHL. Angles are more important ......

Cap will be tricky but it's something Botterill will have to be able to manage.

There is word today that Artemi Panarin has told CLB that he is not ready to consider an extension “at this time.” (UFA July 2019.) As a result, the Blue Jackets are testing the market for him.

You said if they don't win a cup in 2 year.. I'm saying it took the Caps "best players and leaders" longer then 2 years.
