The 2024-2025 Roster Thread

Vancouver is most likely wanting one of our top prospects/young players as part of a deal. With that said, which are you willing to give up, Benson or Kulich?

I’d be utterly shocked if Cozens or Peterka as the center piece of a trade package gets the job done right now.
We can get EP40 without giving up Benson or Kulich. And Cozens or Peterka wouldn't be the centerpiece. Power could be.

But given the choice......bye, Jiri.
 
I think there are a lot of ways to grab EP without Kulich/Benson involvement. With his recent play I think Kulich has joined Benson in the "any trade involving this player will likely not work our for us in the long term and bring us only tears and the gnashing of teeth" club.

Yep, at that point too. Preference would be Quinn and Rosen and one of the PMD's.
 
I always thought cozens tries to play too much of a skill game. I don't really see him as a power play guy.

I think playing wing and a simpler North south game with some sandpaper would do him well. For me he's more evander Kane than tage he just hasn't figured it out yet. That being said I think he's still a guy who I would want on the sabres. If van wants him for EP great but if they don't I certainly haven't given up on him.

Replace Cozens with Paille and it's history repeating
 
Came over to read some stuff... interesting stuff thank you. Curious and honest what is the appeal of bringing in pettersson - genuinely asking

I assume its talent plus established top six center ..

And who do you see him playing with and clicking with. Do you have any wingers that play like centermen in the o zone

Thompson-Cozens as a 1-2 is not getting it done at center so the idea would be Pettersson-Thompson as the 1-2, with perhaps Cozens being part of the deal OR moving to RW that he seems like his game lately is better suited to. In an ideal world, he's the guy I would like to see as F1 playing opposite EP if he were to be acquired from Vancouver. Cozens has regressed in the middle considerably.
 
If Buffalo could get Pettersson for Power straight up I would do it in a heart beat.

That's been my offer for a while now - gives Vancouver a solution to their PMD issues on their 2nd pair, takes some of the load off of Hughes, and also frees up a bunch of cap space if it is essentially one for the other.

Do you think Vancouver want Byrum and can extend him ?
What Sabres forwards do you feel would appeal to Alvinn/Tochett ? Greenway (on final year), Cozens, others ?
 
I'd happily include Peterka in place of Quinn.

Byram or Power
Quinn or Peterka
Plus

Cant imagine that Vancouver wants any part of Cozens right now
It has been reported that they want to bring back a center in a deal, making it difficult to figure out who they would replace Pettersson with, at least temporarily.

Power/Byram
Cozens/Quinn/Peterka
Krebs

If you were a Sabre right now would you be dreading the possibility of being traded or excited to go to another team?
I’m just keeping my head up and trying to put pucks in the net until the dipshit GM trades me to a contender and I get my cup.

If Chad D is to be believed here......Pegula is OKing an EP40 deal.

This is proof that Terry and Kevyn are reading our posts here.

I can't help but believe that Terry is probably hearing that fans are calling him cheap and he's yelling at Adams to "do one of those Tweety things and claim you have all the money you need to make any deal you want.... and maybe remind everyone how I spent my own money to repair the leaky roof again!".

And Adams responds, "yes boss, right away!"
 
Chicago could be a good landing spot for Power or Cozens or Peterka or Rosen, any or some combination.

Vlasic, Korchinski, Nazar, Murphy, Dickinson, Foligno, Boisvert, Moore. They've got pieces.

Teravainen and Murphy maybe.
