Seems like a good year to be picking 7th.

Maybe it's the plan all along 🤔

I'd move top 7 for a legit 2c.

Whomever mentioned point in Tampa, that would be a good choice.

Maybe throw in risto and take back a bad contact?

Risto and 7th for point and a bad contract.

Seems botterillish

Think New York's covid handling will have any effect on free agents wanting to sign with a NY team? We know Buffalo is nothing like NYC, but people not from here don't realize that. Even the NHL listed Buffalo, NYR and NYI all having the same cases when trying to determine HUB cities.

I think being losers for 13 years will be the bigger issue


unproven guys might sign on a short term deal because of eichel and dahlin, a prove it type deal and then go elsewhere to cash in

Tyler Johnson is signed for 4 more years at $5M per, he's around a 45 point per year player now, he's about to turn 30, and he's likely not a Center anymore.

Unless he costs nothing in a trade, which may be the case with their cap situation, I would not be interested.

The only way Brisebois trades Point is if he decides he is actively going to sabotage his team to spite ownership.

Tyler johnson probably has negative value to tampa?

Seems like contracts are approx. 1pt = $100,000

I know the Bills have the spotlight right now but the Sabres reportedly have interest in a European free agent.

Get some insight on Finnish forward Eemeli Suomi.

Our own blogger wrote about Suomi on April 6th. See below.

Eemeli Suomi- Ilves Tampere (SM-Liiga)

Age: 24 years old
Position: Left Wing
Goals: 26
Assists: 32
Corsi For: 50.8%
O-Zone usage: 51.2%

Suomi has already been linked to the Sabres as a potential signing and It’s not hard to see why. He was third in goals, tied for 2nd in both even strength goals and total points while also receiving the highest TOI/GP of any winger. His even strength goals for % relative to his teammates was also exceptional at 16.6%, good for 6th among forwards (minimum 30 GP).

At 24 years old, the Sabres likely wouldn’t bring him in to be developed in Rochester for a few years. This would be a signing for some immediate help with the big club. Suomi comes in at 5’9 and 183 lbs, so not a power forward by any means but again given the way the NHL is trending, I don’t believe his size would hold him back. Suomi ranked 12th in shooting percentage among forwards in the SM-Liiga at 20%.

1. Put your cursor on the image.

2. Right click your mouse.

3. From the menu, choose "copy image address"

4. Start a post on HB.

5. From the buttons underneath the box you usually write, click the IMG button.

6. Right click your mouse again, and from the menu, choose "Paste" (this dumps the image address that you copied in step 3)

7. Hit that orange "Submit" button like every other post.
