I can drive the Zamboni to, just so Pegs knows he's getting his money's worth.

I was told that I was not allowed to do that, even though they may leave to go visit other people and I might have a few hours lounging on the deck by myself, Sorry I am just a grouchy old fart!!

Not I sir as there will still be too many good forwards at pick 28 to ignore.

I'll pick defenseman after that, and look to acquire them in other ways as well.

Further, it feels like the Sabres are not nearly as concerned about right shot versus left shot and LHD vs. RHD as some fans are.

So what does this mean?

Is he all in on trying to make the Sabres? And, if not?

I believe we still own his rights as an RFA.

I'd prefer him to Bryson TBH.

These kids could be 2- 3-4 years away, could be a whole different situation by then.

The more I read about it, the more I want to stay away. If one of those guys are there at 41, sure. If not you could be drafting a guy who could be killed in war or jailed. No thanks. Juice isn’t worth the squeeze. Plenty of other talent at our picks.

I think it all comes down to risk vs. reward. If one of the Russians who is top 10 in talent is there at 28 then I think you absolutely have to take him.
