I like him.

Just an btw: Pierre Luc-Debois: 73games, 27g, 36a, 63pts or 0.863ppg at 24yrs old Tage Thompson: 78games, 47g, 47a, 94pts or 1.205oog at 25yrs old Dylan Cozens: 81games, 31g, 37a, 68pts or 0.840ppg at 22yrs old Just find these contracts interesting.

That Dylan Cozens contract looking good, that Tage Thompson contract looking like highway robbery.

Clearly, hence why he said "us" You want to be a bandwagon fan and have 2 teams, you are more than welcome to do it. Go for it. I won't stop you. To each their own.

How old does he need to be?

OEL should take Dahlin's spot. I mean they are the same right? RIGHT? OEL OEL OEL OEL OEL OEL!!! Best UFA we could target, fits all our needs. I am making shirts and starting facebook groups! I just paid a Russian troll farm to stop tweeting about Hunter Biden and start tweeting about OEL to Buffalo.

Well as you are the 14th person to bring it up sure. It is all about you. You are the only poster here, everything revolves around you. You got me. Definitely not because there is an entire thread dedicated to the absolutely STUPID idea that would be OEL on the Buffalo Sabres.

I can't wait to live in the world where we have so many players that are top 9 guys other teams are lowballing us to take them because they have to play on our 3rd line or in Rochester. Sign me the ***** up.

No, you don't refer to your supposed 2nd team as "us". What I am saying is he is a vegas fan with a mild interest in Buffalo. That's fine but you say "us" when referring to vegas lets all be clear, you are vegas fan. It's kinda like how Perrault is a Bruins fan.

Negative.

Not everything is about you.

What move has Adams made that doesn't make sense? Adams wants a physical RHD for Power, how does a 31yr old non physical LHD with injury history make sense?

Simashev has offense. In the KHL it is harder to show that when you are limited both in ice time and opportunity. Also saying "Simashev seems like a clone of Samuelsson, who maybe skates a little better" is a rough eval of Simashev's skating. I think his overall agility and footspeed is probably better than what we have from Muel right now. Still, I like Willander and think he is a reliable 2-way defender although his offensive instincts don't seem highly developed.

Because ppl have heard of OEL and vaguely remember that at one point he was a decent defender so they have used that to be like "oh Buffalo will go get OEL" when in reality it makes almost no sense for Adams to target OEL.

His defensive game is weak and his motor isn't the highest.

2 things. First is it won't cost 10mil to extend him now and I even think 8mil is probably a touch high. Second, there is a very real possibility that if you bridge that 10mil number is wrong and you are talking 12-13mil for an 8 year deal 4 years from now. The cap will go up, it is artificially low and Seattle revenue is all getting dumped in the pot. If Power settles in as a Norris candidate who gives you 50-60pts a season and is 6'6"... Idk what the math looks like in 2027 on that new deal. IMO, I would give Power either a 1yr extension just sign him this summer for 8yrs.

Why anyone wants OEL I'll never understand. Is he big? No, but average Is he a gritty player? No Is he a rhd? No Does he play a shutdown game? No Is he young with runway to improve? No What's the appeal? "I've heard of him before."

"Us"? Yea no. There is no us. You're either a Vegas fan or a Sabres fan.

No surprise, Beniers wins the RotY

Wouldn't that be something if he slides... I think past 11 though is unlikely.

I'm good with that.
