Monahan has been invisible, Gaudreau not much better.

Why am I petrified that the Sabres are gonna move the 8th overall pick in a package deal for one of those guys.

All options must be considered if the Buffalo Sabres are better, short and long term, after any trade.

Gaudreau is a two year rental, he has made it very known his intentions to play closer to home.

Everything I’ve seen and read regarding Monahan is that he’s nothing more than a passenger (when ideally you want your Center to be able to drive a line). The second teams shut down Gaudreau, Monahan is nowhere to be found and his defensive metrics aren’t good at all.

So yes, if we are moving Cozens or the 8th overall pick in a deal for any one of those players, even if both came in a package deal, I’d throw up in my mouth.

I didn't use specifics in my statement for a reason. I wouldn't move either piece for either player.

Buffalo is significantly closer to home than Calgary, obviously.

Did he specifically say Philly or NJ?

Philly would have to do some maneuvering to fit him in there cap wise but where there is smoke, there is fire.

We have a 9M winger and a probably 4-5M winger. There's just no way Gaudreau would make sense, logistically. I mean you'd have to send back Okposo.

Gaudreau is also most likely looking for his last good payday with term at the ripe age of 29.

I’d like to aim with a player with more team control ideally if we are going to be giving up what it takes to get him.

I can’t even imagine. Bring in holtby and trade for PRIce. That should fix everything and still have some cash leftover for a case of beer and some cheap scotch

Only way the Sabres move the 8th is to move up in this draft.

I made a similar assessment on monahan but apparently he had 8pts in 10gp. I wasnt impressed visually from what i watched. If it takes 8OA or cozens forget about it. Im probably not moving cozens for anything

But we must ask how much of his success is because of gaudreau, and would playing behind eichel make that a wash? He has essentially been a 30/30 guy his entire career
