I think the top 4 will be: 1. Celebrini 2. Levshunov 3. Salayev 4. Lindstrom

Gary? Is that you?

Haha, I don't have the inside connections but I'd totally love it.

Idk puckpedia much but here's hoping.

Both players that moved teams, what do you mean what? That isn't a comparison of player ability.

I've never seen anyone demand we trade Krebs for a 5th but at some point Buffalo can't wait 6yrs in the nhl to develop ppl. Buffalo needs to find teams shedding a Rodriguez or a Reinhart that's already done the development instead of being the feeder team. I'd also challenge you to tell us which of Benson, Quinn, JJP, Tuch, Tage, Skinner, Cozens has Krebs been better than?

I agree. Benson was 18 all last year and if Buffalo had given him pp time instead of Okposo or olofsson and made the playoffs, we'd all be dancing about the absolute steal Benson is.

I think putting Benson with Greenway is a waste personally. Benson is a chaos machine who gets puck to the HD areas. I want Quinn or Tuch with him and a center with a good shot. Benson Tage Tuch as a line makes a lot of sense. As does Benson Cozens Quinn. If you get Ek, you could run Benson Ek Skinner

Playing with fire:

Went back and rewatched this video. They are right impo, Benson has a first line ceiling with an insane defensive game. I'm very excited for him in 2024 with a full offseason to train and all those games of NHL experience.

Sabres have 23.518 million in cap with 13 guys signed. 5 defenders and 8 forwards. That leaves 2.3mil average for the remaining 10 guys. Keep in mind that this doesn't include Levi who is in the AHL on capfriendly so you gotta subtract 1 spot and 925k unless you think Adams is signing another guy.

I'd guess Chicago takes Levshunov

I'm skeptical of JEE being available but would be very interested if true.
