Group meeting this morning before prospects game

I mean if they just sent a contract offer then 0% chance forsure. Did they have time to court him and at least talk over the phone ? I give it 5% just like you regardless but that’s at least interesting to say the least.

Why would the Blues move him
- SABRES 89


My logic is we get a 60 pt winger to play with Eichel. They get a 60 pt center who's a good face off man.

Pekar is Girgensons, Girgensons is Pekar. If Pekar had hurt Mittelstadt today, oh lordy

He went after Dahlin too. Part of me admires it. I like him.

Sabres need a guy like that. But someone that’s in the organization. Not someone you pay for in Free Agency.

That must have come from Kim. I thought botts said he wasn't talking to him.

It reminds me of when Girgensons lit up Reinhart in training camp years ago. I think it's unnecessary, but I like the fire

They'd probably really have to love ROR to make that move.

Cap friendly shows 18.8m with 4 guys to sign, but yes, they'd have to move someone to make room.

It's too high to make sense, not arguing otherwise

Agreed. I think he was one of the top 10 guys out there today.

murrray was the gm who oversaw the operations including the scouting department...
why you wanna play that game?

- Michael Pachla


All GMs depend on their scouts for the later round picks
GMs don’t watch much tape on ALL of the 250-300ish guys that have a good shot at getting drafted

With Murray’s big scouting background,
it is certainly possibly he saw tape of Olofsson & identified him as a player to take late
Most likely was one of our Euro scouts who watched him play live that pushed for him though

Not a knock on Murray at all
That’s most teams m/o

The price for ROR has not come down and won't.
- SABRES 89



So are they prepared to bring him back this year if nobody meets the price? Even though there are issues with management?
