Hank, my 2nd entry into the SabresStickerContest,

9-Savoie
16-Lambert
28-Miro

- IonSabres


Why 2 entries?

Should we all put 2 in, or are you playing by different rules?

16. Buffalo Sabres (via Vegas) - Danila Yurov, RW, Stalnye Lisy (MHL)

In for a penny, in for a pound. The Sabres already have quite a few prospects in Russia, but when you have three first round picks, you can take the chance on Yurov despite the political climate. On talent, he’s a top ten prospect for this draft. He has upside because of his ability to play with pace and create in transition, but he’s also a safe bet to be an NHL player because of his high work rate.

I've warmed up a lot on Yurov over the past month. It'll be nice to have a top Russian talent to lead the others into the org.

Gerbe isnt saying anything, makes it easy to play you guys.

He's "in the know " and doesn't want to ruin the draft for kyvynv by posting random names on a website.

That's what happens when someone fills out 2 separate sticker brackets. 🤔

Why cant you post your picks?

Seriously, even kyvynv doesn't know who will fall to what spot.

Trade up, you said.... despite posting 0 information.


When it doesnt happen, it's easy to just say "it fell thru"

Only thing that makes sense to me is if they are trading up for Nemec/Jiricek.

If not, I take my chances and take the forward that falls into my lap at 9

I’d be all for one of the D men.

Build the nastiest, skilled D group in the league with a bunch of puck hounds at forwards

Bichsel is really exciting to me. I'd move up with 28 if he's still there in the early 20s. That D will be (frank)ing ferocious.

There still is an “interview” period for UFA before the opening bell.
“ Unrestricted free agents can begin meeting with new teams on Saturday, July 11, but players cannot officially begin signing with new teams until the clock strikes noon ET on Monday, July 13.”

https://www.local10.com/s...ist-huberdeau-and-others/

Panthers have some personnel decisions to make moving forward. I’d hate to see him go, but Hornqvist might be who they try to move. I won’t say he isn’t overpaid, but he still chips in offensively, and what he brings to the team as a leader can’t be matched.
Might be good for a cap floor team with several young up and coming players.

“ Trading for Hornqvist was the first move made by Zito after he was hired in September of 2020, and it proved to be one of the most important in franchise history.
In addition to his on-ice contributions, Hornqvist has been credited as being the driving force in changing the culture in the Panthers dressing room, creating an environment that thrives on hard work, accountability and camaraderie.”

Do you take Matt Murray and 7 for 41? Or 28?

I would do it for 28, but obviously if the offer was 41 you don't hesitate. If he's blocking someone next year, buy him out.
