He won’t. I imagine for now, they’ll alternate all 3 until Comrie fully gets up to speed, then it’ll move to a 2/2/1 split (barring illness or injuries).

We should beat Florida with Anderson. However, playing UPL Tuesday seems to be going for the make sure we get 2 points out of the next 2 games at a minimum

Rachel Hopmayer thinks the move means UPL doesn't play Monday, probably Tuesday. Does she have any inside Intel? Doesn't make sense to sit him Monday when they play sh*ty Chicago Tuesday


We should be able to beat Florida with Anderson. This seems like we are trying to guarantee at least 2 points.

Mods can you please delete my post above this? I quoted the wrong poster

Yeah. I think a few insanely bad trades for Dmen the past few years has completely borked the market.

Risto went for a 1st and 2nd. Seth Jones 1st #6, 1st #12, 2nd #44. Chiarot 1st, 4th, prospect.

So every dman worth a damn is obviously worth the Risto/Jones/Chiarot deal plus another 1st. Am I right?

A market correction is badly needed.

I think middle 6 scoring wingers are also due for a market correction, they're significantly undervalued. See - Reinhart, Buchnevich, etc.

part of the issue is RD vs LD plays a factor here.

the issue in scoring wingers is there are too many of them.
from economic theory it’s the paradox of choice applied. Thry are all very close and eho is worth a 1st vs a 2nd. Other factors are things like term remaining or being able to get them extended before making a trade.

Maybe Vanek has cast a spell on me, but I am really starting to wonder how Bo Horvat would fit into this roster. Right now tire kicking starts with three players including a top prospect.

Not a good fit at all, IMO. We've got Tage and Cozens as our long-term top 2 centers. Horvat would then slot in as a high-priced, mostly-offense 3rd line center?

If we're going to pay someone what Horvat will demand (in both acquisition cost AND contractual cost), I'd rather that person be a bit more well rounded.

It's odd how Horvat seems to have a reputation of being good defensively among some fanbases when he really isn't. He just wins face-offs.

Friedman reiterated what Marek said about Portillo going to free agency.

He also said Sabres are looking for a trade partner for Hino

Considering how many teams are in cap hell we should be in a good position as buyers. We don't need our trading partner to retain nor involve a 3rd party.

Ask on the available players might still be stupid but we should be in a good position for negotiations.

We're also in a great position to be a money sink if teams need it. Should be able to get a few picks for retaining money if needed/called upon.

I got a feeling that a deal might be brewing between Edmonton and the Sabres. Vinnie at 50 percent for puljavardi from Edmonton. Sabres add a fourth
