I don't know if you can use someone else's picks, believe they have to be yours. But if you do get a 1st in next year's draft in a trade for Eichel and a 2nd for say Rhino it could make it interesting. I believe a offer sheet up to 8.6mill is a 1st,2nd, and 3rd.

Sabres using 2022 1st on an offer sheet? Don't think that's such a good idea.

He has value i didn't even think was possible .

He checks a lot of boxes and I'd consider the last 6-8 weeks of the season as his breakout. Never saw him play better.

Hes a good player but that 2022 pick is worth more for us right now

Well I don't think so either, but if you were to get say the Ducks or Kings 1st next year could sway some decisions.

I agree, but what I said above could help in that aspect.

Let’s say they receive a late 1st rd this year and use that in an offer sheet package to Pettersson, then flip him at the deadline for a chance at a higher 22 or 23 1st round pick.

Nope nope nope. Has to be your teams 1st the next year, so Buffalos 2022 1st round pick

Just watched the game highlights and saw that. Then at the start of OT they said he was one of 4 Montreal players without a shot on net in the game. What does he even do at this point?

Habs are two wins away from the Stanley Cup Finals. He's on the team.

I didn't know it could only be the Sabres pick, that should be changed. Teams might start actually using the offer sheet approach then. With the flat cap that could be a new avenue for player movement.

Although the 2020-21 season was an unconventional one, there's one aspect of the campaign players want to keep.

According to the results of the 2020-21 NHLPA Player Poll released on Thursday, 66.3% of players are in favor of keeping series-style schedules.

bagging on someone that is meeting expectations is different then bagging on epic failures

It really is a shame because I really like a lot of her vision for the area and her work around the arena has been really well done! But she just can’t hand that Sabres President title over to allow for better organizational structure and success.

Not that he’s the end all be all, but I really thought with the Rutherford rumors, he would have been added to the front office and they (pegs) would have stepped back a bit. I guess even in the depths of disfunction that capped the 20/21 season, they still don’t see the need to cede power to someone that knows the nhl better than they do…

Hell, it took how long to add Karmonous. That should have been a slam dunk, 2 “interview”, 1 week hire.

Tampa and Montreal are proving that right know. Pittsburgh proved it the other way though.
