Heck even Asplund-Krebs-Olofsson would be a start.

Anything that gets them off the ice together helps. I still can't decide which one hurts them more. Lean towards VO.

UPL ain’t it. 4 goals on 22 shots. This is a crime that this team doesn’t have a real NHL goalie.

Even though Demko is struggling,
I’d at least call VAN about him to see if he can be had at a decent price
And I’d try & get Horvat thrown into the deal as well

We have enough pieces to get it done,
and still have plenty left over

I just don’t think mitts has any trade value.
Vo is a mystery, the guy sucks at hockey but my god can he shoot.

The only two players in Buffalo Sabre history to have 6 points two times in a season:

Pat LaFontaine 91-92
Tage Thompson 22-23

The only two players in Buffalo Sabre history to score 5 in a game:

Dave Andreycuk February 6, 1986
Tage Thompson December 7, 2022

Not appearing on this list are anyone from the French Connection or Mogilny.

I think if they move on from casey

Scott Laughton would be the perfect center

plays decent on pk
can put up 35 to 40 points

hold that spot down until one of the prospects is ready to play center, signed for 3 more years at 3 mil per

A legit 3rd line, some help on the PK and decent goaltending and this team could actually make noise and go.

He might be
I didn’t see that

My bad if so
But it also might mean we could get him cheaper
Could still be worth exploring

And i really like the idea of Horvat
Good 2way player- scores goals & can match up against the other teams’ top lines
He’s a UFA to be, but that also could mean we wouldn’t have to pay as much
Obviously would wanna be fairly confident we could extend him if trading for him though

I think having Horvat, Thompson & Cozens down the middle would be one of the best Center groups in the league

Jeff Skinner the elite playmaker. Who knew?

You have to give credit where it’s due

I called it last year and again this year

But Tage is unreal. 50 is happening.

Who’s your d man. If you think one needs to be brought in.

Who’s your tendy?

I’d like to see them do something to help the team. I’m not holding my breath. Does not doing anything hurt the vibes?

- kingcong39


I was thinking….
Ostlund (instead of Savoie), ‘24 1st (top10 protected), Comrie, Portillo, Mitts & Olofsson
Maybe even add a 2nd since we have 3 of them?

Obviously that’s a lot,
but those guys won’t come cheap

I think we should flip Casey, Olo, Joker to Winnipeg for Hellebyuck

Then UPL, Krebs, 1st to Arizona for Chowuorin

Better lineup decisions would go a long way, but they don't seem to have any interest in it. Aspund, Krebs, Vinny would be a big upgrade.

You just cant take a 9-4 win and be happy with the coach huh?

How long before non-Sabre Canadian fans start coming to Key Bank just to see the Tage/Dahlin show?

Methinks the arena might by full by the end of the year.

I'd give a toe for Hellebyuck on this team, but no chance he's traded.

How can anyone think that any team in this league would trade for Mittelstadt at all let alone in a deal for Horvat; let alone him and Demko? Why do people think that other teams want the players on your team you can't wait to get rid of. This is a joke. Though if it happened Vancouver would be the joke that the Sabres have been for the last dozen years.

You do realize that Winnipeg is tied the lead in their division, right?
