12hrs or so

There's a lot belief that no Def will go between Schaefer and 9.

I'll stand by this. There's a bunch of guys from like 33-55 I could rank but honestly, I couldn't tell you much about who's better. It's more like pick your traits. With Kesselring on the team, I think it frees up Buffalo to focus on things other than RHD. I'd probably take a lhd, and a few bigger forwards. We have two 4ths and three 7ths so a goalie makes sense too.

Here we are. Draft Day.

Sign him, give him pp time, play him with Dahlin.

This made me curious. JJ Peterka started on the offensive zone 55.8% of the time at 5v5 and 65.8% of the time for all TOI.

We traded scoring for defense/grit

I'd be interested in Hagel if he's moved.

Idk, I keep wondering about Dahlin and to a lesser extent Thompson. However, you're right this is a totally fake story at the moment and we shouldn't believe jjp was some locker room issue... just like Eichel and Reinhart weren't either.

How'd that bold slip in there?

Fair

I think that's fair. I guess the real heart of the question is, is Buffalo better with this Peterka trade than if they just kept Peterka. I'm not sure because part of me thinks Peterka isn't what we need but part also thinks we didn't get enough. In the end, I might bet well be wrong, in fact it's probably more likely the Sabres are worse off right now than with Peterka. But there's still this part of me that thinks they're better.

Yea, that's pretty accurate. This thread asked for a hard decision and I decided to lean yes and answer yes. This trade could very very easily blow up in buffalo's face. I wanted the sure fire win, hence Robertson. So I'm both disappointed and still ok with the return. Yes, I recognize the juxtaposition of it.

Yes. You asked if I wanted more in a trade. I do. Now this asks if I like the trade. It's 2 different questions.

This was a fun listen

Being a top 10 draft pick is irrelevant approximately 1 day after the draft ends.

Hmm... I'll lean yes.

Utah isn't an expansion team.

Kesselring interview

Idk what Harrington is smoking. Most of us liked the trade.

Josh Doan interview

Didn't stop everyone from spelling Reinhart like drunken sailors

Bolduc had 108 hits last year in 72 games.

I remember when we traded Savoie every laughed and now know one in the media brings it up anymore.
