Told you goobers Mitts was going to COL.

if Byram reaches his potential we win the trade.

Thats a big if.
- sabresfan69

Yeah, with the Sabres though. He doesn’t need to do as much.

What I mean by thag is Dahlin. Samuelson power are your long term horses on d

He fits into that top 4 and doesn’t need those crazy minutes

I do

it's a good hockey trade for both teams esp if casey was not in the sabres long term plans
- homiedclown

I agree. I like Byram, he could turn into a great defenseman that being said we should have gotten more for Mitts.

now trade joker and that 2nd for Parayko

- sabresfan69

he was picked 4th overall

we got him for a player picked 8th overall that they did not want to pay

I would rather have this kid then a late first and a blah prospect

Your My Hero! Quinner

So what does the D look like now?

Dahlin - Byram
Power - Joker
Johnson - Clifton

That’s it. Blew his wad on a 1 for 1 with our one and only premium tradable asset. Strange. Also not necessary. The only necessary moves for the TDL were unloading the trash at all cost.

Mitt's could've been asking for $7mm+, and in Buffalo he had great leverage in asking for that. Adams, essentially traded a rental for a potential top 4 dman.

Through that lens, you cold justify this, the lens was created by Adams through improper roster construction and poor cap management.

I agreed rather have player than pick and prospect.

My concern as others have echoed is that he has already had to step away from the game because his brain was scrambled eggs

Again, the trade is not a foregone conclusion. You are all b!tching about trading a 44 point player?!?!?!?!?. 44 points are replaceable and perhaps we can get some room on the club for a developing player?

A lot of the time, due to fact that many reactions are similar, I have to ask, are a lot of the posters on this blog AI?

FYI - it is still ok to root for the Sabres.

Always a tough passive aggressive group that wants to see Adams/ the Sabres look bad .

Makes them feel better about their opinions


I like the trade, 4OA 21 year old

The concussions are the only concerning part for me.

Someone should be able to fill in the points , hopefully a Rochester guy or 2

skinner had those issues

so did josh allen

didn't dahlin get a few of them over the years?

Where they were picked means absolute zilch after what 4 seasons in the NHL?

This would be a good move.

They would need to retain and I doubt they would

They talked about 6 yrs 42 mill, I mentioned that 2 weeks ago.

Hes not had any major injury time and I cant even remember him having a minor (week to week) injury.

Only time he hasnt played 78+ was cause of covid

So what does the D look like now?

Dahlin - Byram
Power - Joker
Johnson - Clifton
- ImThatGuy

I think that makes sense on paper

So if we trade Power for Makar do we lose the trade because Power was picked 1OA and Makar was picked later?

Using draft position is silly.

Okposo and Crosby as well

Especially from different drafts.

- Sabretooth9

Where does Sammy fit once healthy.

Bryson has been playing okay.

Does it seem weird to say we have to move a defenseman out?

- Boss34

Crosby wasn’t concussion.

It was a nerve in his neck IIRC.

They thought it was concussions, but that wasn’t the issue
