risto, and casey for an extended Ryan Nugent-Hopkins

throw in borgen or davidsson if needed

- homiedclown


Rather keep Borgen. I think we need him more than most. Davidsson can go. And I do that in a heartbeat.

Couple that with the impending bjustead move and you’ve got...

Jack
RNH
Bjustead
Lazar or Larry

I’ll take that down the middle!

Still have cozens.

The d is more settled

2RW we can swing for in free agency or maybe tage or cozens (part time).

Now upgrade Hutton or call Irbe and pay him ungodly money to came back and coach just Hutton. Keep the other goalie coach. Irbe just coaches Hutton.

Am i the only one that thinks Casey will be a very good top 6 player in the NHL? Why is everyone packaging him in a trade to ship him out of buffalo? He's young and still learning how to play without the puck in Krueger's system
- Up2nuthun


As soon as Botts and company realize he’s a winger at the NHL level and stop forcing him to be a Center he’ll be able to grow into that top 6 role.

His 100 plus games played you tell you otherwise.

Casey fell out of the limelight quicker then Harry Connick Jr.

I would trade it in a package in a HEARTBEAT to get a real, Bona fide, 2c! Not a wing converting to c. Not an unproven 3c, Who might be able to make the jump. Not bjustead. An actual 2c and that pick is gone.


I would not do it for a 2RW.

Bjustead will be traded for sheary and he will be our 2c. It’s the botts way.

- Up2nuthun


Team needs a 2c more than it needs a potential top 6 that hasn’t developed to this point and it’d be dumb to relay on for a 3rd season.

The Sabres only have so many trade chips. If 2020 1st. Risto. Mitts. Gets me an extended RNH. I’m doing that immediately!

I don’t know why that Swedish scout is no longer with the organization. I would have made him head of European Scouting and doubled his salary for convincing the drunk to make that pick.

Strom was never a botts enough move.

Bjustead though. Oh, my friend, you can’t get more botts than that!

It’s gonna happen.

Bjustead will be a Sabre.

Either way, last I checked "one" is more than "none".

Botts thinks thats Bjustead is some new spicy toppings for his nachos, I think you're onto something here.

per spector, pretty obvious


"LATEST ON THE SABRES

THE BUFFALO NEWS: Lance Lysowski lists Conor Sheary, Jimmy Vesey, and Zemgus Girgensons as the most likely Sabres to be dealt at the trade deadline. Among the least likely is defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen. Lysowski feels the acquisition cost could be astronomical, advocating he shouldn’t be moved unless it’s for a top-six forward. "

The O'Reilly trade spooked him with Ristolainen. He should have been gone in the summer.

Last time I checked he wasn’t a 2nd overall pick, which promoted my original reply to Hubie

Let's face it, what ever GMJB does, if he does anything at all, will be a complete and utter disaster.

after watching him toss his papers into the can, maybe he should be in Baseball and not Hockey.

Murray had a decent 2015, picking Borgen and Guhle. His Euro scout picked Olofsson, almost literally. Murray rubber stamped it. 2016 was lol, and so was 14.

My dog makes 2 of those 3 picks. The third guy was outsourced from a different continent.

Im convinced a random number generator taking that listed prospect in a prospects book would out draft GMTM and Botts
