VGK average age 27.7, Sabres 25.64. not that big of a difference.
- hehateme

I missed this before:

Vegas top 5 scorers average age 26.6 plus they have a Cup winning goalie.

Buffalo top 5 24.2 plus they have an average goalie.

And the Sabres are pulled up by Okposo.

That's a significant difference, plus Vegas has a proven coach as opposed to a first timer with by and large, young players.

Marchessault was a 1st line producer last year in Florida, and It looks like Karlsson, while maybe not a perrenial 40 goal guy, is also a legit top liner.

I agree with 365, but it's not like they're best player is Sam Reinhart or something

Mid-to-late first Sabre picks acquired in trade:

Ennis
Girgensons

I don't want that for ROR

I get stressed out just seeing the green symbol he uses

Ennis now? Yeah probably not. Ennis before his injuries + a top prospect? Absolutely

Ristolainen has reached his ceiling, IMO, but that's not a bad ceiling.

40+ points per

Great contract

Under no circumstances should we even consider trading him.

Ennis at his best never matched ROR

Was a better EV scorer but obviously not as good.

But again, that + a very good prospect.

If we get a top 7-10 pick, that right there is enough

If it's mid first, we need a teams 2nd or 3rd best prospect.

If it's like the 23rd or 25th pick, it better be someone like Samuel Girard or Sergachev along with it

Don't hold your breath folks.. The Sabres have little chance of winning that lottery....

They will learn a lesson again this year that stinking up the ice is no way to improve your team. Remember the draft was not rigged back in the day when finishing last meant actually getting to draft the best player... an 18% chance of winning that rigged lottery ain't much..

Last place and a losing culture attitude that will takes years to correct... Worst for sure

One single player does not correct that

I can't understand why people want Risto gone, just don't get it.

Tim Connolly left dripping wet panties in the stands, fans tipped over beers from jaw dropping skillz, and his teammates worshipped him.
There are lifetime friendships that have been created by random people celebrating an unbelievable play made by Gods gift...19. The guy had more talent in his pinky toes nail than this current sabres roster combined.



He only scored 18 goals in the regular season because he was a genius and slow played the entire NHL. He did just enough to make it to the playoffs, then put a garbage roster with literally no help on his back and carried them to the ECF, TWICE!!

Pegula wants to shed tears over a former player 19 is your man, end of story. HOF mother(frank)aaaaaaaaa

He isn't the problem IMO, I don't have an issue moving ROR (prefer to keep him) but moving Risto just makes no sense.
