Friedman: Sabres gauging the market on Byram

[Ledge And Dairy]

If we're pretending this trade works (it doesn't), why wouldn't Buffalo and Vancouver just trade? I'd rather have Hughes than that New Jersey trio.

I assume it's because Hughes will force his way to New Jersey anyways. Obviously anyone would rather have Hughes but if the option is 2 years of Hughes vs 8+ years of Nemec, Silayev, and Mercer, I think you take the later.

Imo just remove Hughes from the thought equation here since he wouldn't at all be available if he wasn't trying to join his brothers.

I wouldn't trade Spence straight up for Byram.

And Byram has had 3 concussions? No thanks.

I don't think Spence makes sense for Buffalo anyways.

Delete this - nobody needs to know that Byram is bad when he’s away from Dahlin

Obviously, Buffalo needs players who have already established themselves as NHL players. Good options for them
Calgary: Andersson
Rangers: Schneider

Andersson is a one yr rental and is too offense first

Schneider hasn't shown he can do mid pair time

Buffalo can also trade Byram for a forward and Peterka for defense.

It doesn't have to be position for position

Did I miss a trade? I though Wood was still on Colorado, not Philly.

I believe the poster is trying to trade the Sabres Matthew Wood and a late 1st in a bad draft for Krebs, who…fine, and Bowen Byram, who is the Sabres single biggest trade chip for improving the NHL roster. I suppose it’s just a fact of life that once per page someone has to be reminded that the Sabres are not looking for futures. Our prospect pool is likely better than yours, so more picks and prospects are not of interest.

Buffalo dies not do thus type of trade unless they trade Peterka/ others for roster players such as a RD coming back in a deal.

They can trade F for D and D for F.

I think their preference us yo keep Peterka, trade Byram, and trade Quinn

The big hole is a mid pair RD

Oh boy an overpaid 4th liner and a late pick in a shitty draft. What a haul.
